OUR CANDIDATES.

Newspaper readers must expect itera-
ton in times preceding election. The
claims of rival candidates must be
urged in the hopes that they will receive
consideration at the hands of voters. The
democrats this year present to the people
of the state men of acknowledged ability
who do not fall under the category of Of
fee seekers. The man at the head of the
ticket is one of the best citizens of the
state. His determination expressed in
his speeches throughout the state ito be
governor of no party, corporation or
clique of men; but of the whole people, :"
proves him to be man of comprehen-
sive hberality, man who will look only
to the interests which it is the duty of a
public officer to guard. The other men
on the ticket are among the best in the
state. They were chosen not on account
of locality nor importantly, but because
they were deemed proper men in whom
to confide the affairs of the state. The
democrats of the county have in like
spirit presented names which insure re-
spect.
The conventions having done their du-
ty it remains for the people to complete
the work. Every citizen should deem it
sacred duty to express his preference
on election day for the candidates to
whom his choice is limited. This is a
country in which the majority rule, and
the election of officers should be by a
majority of electors. A person who
neglects to vote fails in his duty to the
public. A voter is to certain extent a
representative of the people. There is
but one voter among every six persons,
and those five persons who are incapaci
tated from voting should be represented
by the one whose right is assured.

Mr.. JOHN HUssEY has taught school
IN this county for q number of years.
\ majority of the teachers throughout
the county favored his nomination.
There can be no doubt that he was the
choice of the democrats as their nominee
for superintendent of schools. He is
opposed by a strong ano good man, but
there is no good reason why Mr.. Hussey
should not receive the vote of his party.
The interests of the schools of the coun-
ty will not suffer in his hands.

We have nothing to say against the
candidates on the republican county
ticket. So far as we know they are re-
specialize, honorable men. Even if we
could truthfally assail these men we
would not do 50. We feel it the duty of
every man who aspires to a position of
profit. to rely solely on his own merits.
We do not believe in breaking down
mans character In order that success
might perch on our banners. Our coun-
fv ticket IS such as all good democrats
GIN support. II the candidates on the
ticket are entitled to support they should
receive it.

The indications point to a light vote
in the county this fall But every dem
ocrat should recollect that the contest in
the state will be close one. With such
a candidate for governor as the demo-
Gratis now have, what was certainty of
defeat before his name was added to the
ticket, has been transformed into a reas-
enable assurance OF success. Let every
democrat go the polls and labor earnestly
to make Wisconsin a democratic state.

HUBERT FALGE came to Manitowoc q
stranger and for the first two years
taught school. He had no friends to
push him forward, and nothing but
worth and modesty to commend him to
the people. When first nominated it
was thought he would be weak candid

tensive. During the two years he has
been in Office he has SO won the people
by his gentlemanly bearing that ho wao

does not spoil Mr.. Falge.

ED. FOREST REPUBLICAN,
In regard
to the affair published in your issue Of
last week headed "War in the Camp"
you published some misstatements,
unintentional on your part, l hope.
First, as to using birch, never have
and will not unless the case be ex.
tremely urgent; am not an advocate
ofbirch oil. Next, you say "McCracken
had one Of the fair sex hanging to his
arm and snuggled close to his vest pat.
term" he brought one of the fair sex,
seated her, and for some reason un-
known, left her "alone in her glory"
like the "last rose of summer" and
did not appear on the soeue until the
crowd were about to disperse, he and
friend appeared to take charge Of
the aforesaid fair sex.
SOME of the friendly hands that
rescued McCracken have said since
had they understood the case they
would have left him to his fate, which
would have been a mild dislocation of
the necktie. There was no revolver
in the case at all, though McCracken
knew he richly deserved to have the
light of Lickingville to shine through
him; and if proper justice had been
meted to him four or fve gears ago be
might have languished in ward of
the State boarding house, admitting
his own statements to be true, and
previous to making the acquaintance
of The lady in question ard unknown
to her until recently. Again, the
lady's campmeeting outfit was not in
the least disarranged, as persons at
the hotel can say where she presented
herself few minutes later "cool as o
cucumber" and it is good for three
years wear should it not receive a
more serious encounter.
AS McCracken is too poor &c
purchase bullet-proof suit, unless he
sells bis buggy, be had better stay al
home with his mother or the Drs. may

Business is dull the Clarion very
low. Blackb berries have been quite
plenty, and as a consequence we have
heen visited by those who, less fortu-
nate than we, have not our luscious
fruit at home; by those who having
generated superabundauce Of small

they thought, convenient place to

focial muscles; by those who, delight.

that they might distill and obtain it
in its purity but they have gone and
nothing remains to tell Of them but a

Two weeks ago we noticed the
marriage Of Miss Nellie Brett to Mr..
Will Page, of Olean, N. Y, at the
Kent House, Chautauqua Lake. We
now learn from the Olean Times that
it is not the case, the report having
been started from the fact Of the
couple having accompanied a party
from Olean to Chautauqua on a
pleasure trip, and the Bradford Era
having been informed by some one
that the event had taken place pub.
lished it as q fact. Other papers
copied the item, and we found it in
the Titusville Herald.
Five prisoners, namely r. H.
Henderson, John Sheridan, Frank
Sherwood, Geo. Warden aud Chas.
Russell, escaped from the Meadville
jail on Tuesday evening of last week.
The escape was made by taking a
stone from the wall of the building
and swinging to the ground by rope
made from bed clothing. This is only
one among many escapes that have
been effected in the same way, and the
consequence is the Jail is severely con-
demned by the citizens.
Our borough schools opened on
Monday with very large attendance,
the largest, in fact, for several years,
there being upward of a hundred
scholars. The outlook for a success.
ful term is very good, the teachers all
being experienced hands at the busi-
ness, and will do their best to merit
the praise of our citizens. Itis to be
hoped the parents and directors will
visit the schools often, and thereby
encourage and assist the teachers in
their work.
