THE COUNTY TICKET.

The ticket nominated on Saturday last
by the democratic conventions will with
out much doubt be the one elected on
the fourth of next month. Hon. G. 81.
Schmidt is the only one who has an adj
verse majority to overcome and his pop
ularity will lessen the righteousness of the
task.
Hon. John Carey the nominee from
the first district served in the legislature
Of 1879 with honor to himself and salts
faction to his constituents. He is the
farmer orator of Manitowoc county and
his intellectual powers have gained him
as many admirers as his eminent social
qualities have friends. Few men In the
political arena can maintain a degree of
independence consistent with manly
dignity and at the same time lose no ele-
ment of popularity. Mr.. Carey's popu-
larity in the first district has not been
secured though any demagoguery. The
estimation in which he is held is but q
fitting manifestation of his worth. His
election is assured beyond doubt
Fred Pfunder the nominee in the Sec
ond district is a well TODD farmer of
Two Creeks. Some years ago he was
offered the nomination but refused to
accept. This year it was again rendered
him unanimously. 1t is strong demo-
cratic district and though Mr.. Pfunder
has an opponent, something unheard OF
In that district, there is no doubt of his
being often recognized next year as 'the
gentleman from Manitowoc."
Hon. G. Fl. Schmidt has served the
people long and well in Madison both as
senator and assemblyman. His fitness
none can question. His long experience
in matters of legislation will be an ele-
ment of strength in the coming cam
paign. Mr.. Schmidt is not man to sit
down and grow Respondent when diff
culties present themselves. He will
make lively canvass and surprise his
competitor.
J. A. Hussey, the nominee for county
superintendent of schools has been a
teacher for long time in this comfy.
He was principal of the 3rd ward school
for the last three years. His education
was earned through his own individual
exertions. He has qualities which make
him popular among the people and i'll
consequence, his election may be looked
| for with confidence.
/ Hubert Falge the nominee for Clerk
of the Court and the present incumbent
received the nomination without opposi-
ton. He is courteous gentleman and
possesses a highly cultivated mind.
Mr.. Falge is man of rather q retiring
disposition but those well acquainted
with him know him to be man of I'M
swerving integrity and of superior schol-
arship. He is very popular throughout
the county owing solely to his modesty
and affability. His election will be ac-
ceptable to every person and to both
parties.
Anton Braasch the nominee for Regis
ter of Deeds, comes from town which
can always be depended upon to roll up
a large democratic majority. Mr.. Braasch
is young man we'll known throughout
the county. Perhaps no other man in
the county possesses the qualifications
necessary to proper discharge of the
duties of the office in higher degree
than does Mr.. Braasch. He is an excel
lent penman has a good knowledge O
law and is painstaking and efficient
His election will be in the interests o.
competency in official position.
