publican ticket He was a brave SOL
der and is said to be thoroughly COM
petent for the position, and very popu-
lar. He lost an arm during the war.
[Kenosha Union, q Democratic Paper.l
We clip the following from the
GAINESVILLE Gazatte:
Capt. e. G. Timme of Kenosha, one
Of the gallant soldiers of the old first
Wisconsin Infantry Regiment, is a can
didate for Secretary Of State on the
Republican ticket. We can say this
much for Capt. Timme that he made an
honorable record during the war, he
lost an arm in battle, and is in every
particular one could mention qualified
for the office. He is personally very
popular, he has been county clerk in
Kenosha county since 1865.
Capt. Timme is man of unblemish-
ed reputation. He has resided in Ke-
nosha county from boyhood and next
to seeing an equally as good candi-
date on the Democratic side elected, we
would like to see him in the position.
Losing an arm in the battle of Chica-
amauga, he was disabled from labor,
and since that time to the entire salts
faction Of the people he has filled many
offices of trust and responsibility in
this county,
[Oshkosh Daily North-Westen.]
Capt.E. &. Timme, of Kenosha, is be-
ing favorably mentioned for the posi-
ton Of Secretary of State on the Repub-
lican ticket. Capt Timme lost an arm
in the battles Of our country. The
claims of the disabled soldier although
guaranteed and recognized by both po-
litical parties, we are sorry to say, are
being ignored by the politicians, and
yet the sentiment of the people remains
unchanged and is in sympathy with
that class Of our worthy citizens.
Estate Journal
Candidates for the position Of Sec
Rotary Of State on the Republican ticket
are becoming numerous. Those. promi-
nently mentioned are 0. G. Johnson Of
Beloit, Capt. Timme of Kenosha, and
Hans B. Warner, who was defeated two
years ago.
We would here state that 0. G. John
son was the Republican nominee for
State Treasurer four years ago and was
badly defeated by Ferdinand Khuen.
[Folkets Avis, of Racine from the Scandinavian
by B. Milier.l
Tt 81 -l.B to us, to judge from the ar
ticles of the leading German and Eng
Ilish papers that Mr.. Z. G. Timme of
Kenosha, will be our next Secretary of
State. He is expected to be q candi-
date on the Republican ticket, and it is
believed that if nominated he will re-
ceive most every vote in Kenosha Co.
Many of our friends, honest citizens of
KenOsha and Racine, Of both political
parties, speak of Capt. Timme in the
highest terms, as being a gentleman
we'll qualified for said or any other
Office, and courteous to all. For the
last ten years Capt. T. has held the Of
flee Of County Clerk Of Kenosha Co.,
which is good proof Of his honesty
Mr. Timme is q German by birth, he
came to this country whilst quite
young, he speaks the English language
as well as the German with equal flu
Iency. Capt. Timme enlisted IN 1851 in
the first Wisconsin regiment, and in
the battle of Chickamauga he lost his
left arm A short time after he was
made a Captain for bravery; and such
men should be remembered by the peo-
pie. Our paper is nonpartisan in poll
|tics-we believe that there are honest
and dishonest men in both political
parties, and we take pleasure to say
that Capt. Timme although Republi- |
can is an honest mamie respects the
good men of both parties, and is very
popular with the Scandinavians and |
will be elected if nominated.
We could give extracts from great
numberof other papers of our State,
but deem the above sufficient to show
that the candidacy of Capt. Timme is |
being received all over the State with
enthusiasm.
