Wood County !

in convention, at the Council room in
the city of Grand Rapids. Tuesday
afternoon of this week and placed in
nomination strong ticket for the SUI
frage of the voters of Wood County.
The convention was the largest and
most enthusiastic ever held in its hist
Dry. Every town and ward except
three were represented. The business
interest of the county was largely rep
resented and will speak for good gov
eminent and honest men at the coming
election. The ticket is as follows:
Sheriff
Treasurer-I. L. Mosher.
Clerk-F. J. Wood.
Register-P. n. Christensen.
Dist. Att'y-G. L. Williams.
Clerk of Court-R. 2. Bronson.
Suveyor-A. Gordon.
Coroner-H. Osterman.
1t was deemed for the best to leave
the Office of Sheriff vacant for the
present and committee of one from
each town and ward in the county APP
pointed by the convention to fill the
vacancy if in their Judgment it was
deemed necessary or advisable.
I. L. MosHER,
of Grand Rapids, the nominee for
Treasurer, having been a resident of
this county for the past twenty or thir-
ty years and having held the office for
several terms, and given the best Of
satisfaction, always at his post, known
far and wide as ''hoHest Ike" will be
reelected without any doubt. His
accounts and monies have always been
found 0. K. by the special committees
of the county board appointed each
year to investigate. There certainly
can be no objection raised to his re-
election.
F. j. WooD.
Was nominated for the Office of Coun-
ty Clerk, which he has so ably filed
for the past ave years-by a unani-
NOUS vote of the convention, every
vote being cast in his favor. A merit
ed compliment which speaks for Mr..
Woods ability to fill the Office, and
the estimation in which he is held
throughout the county. The Office of
Co. Clerk has never before in the hist
DRY of the county been SO ably con-
Quoted. MIR. Wood is too we'll known
for his many good qualities to need
any recommendation. His spotless
record is his best recommend.
G.. L. WILLIAMS,
of Centralia, was unanimously nomi-
mated for District Attorney. Mr..
Williams is the best man that could
have been named for the place and
will receive the hearty endorsement Of
the voters of the county.
n. P. CHRISTENSEN,
of Lincoln the nominee for Register of
deeds, is a Sweed by birth and man
well calculated to fill this Office. Mr..
G. is splendid penman and has an
unquestioned reputation for honesty
and uprightness. He will add strength
to the ticket wherever he is known.
r. P. BRONSON,
of Marshfeld, the candidate for Clerk
of the Court will make an efficient
clrek, if elected, being a man we'll
along in years, of large experience
and popular both at home and abroad
Vote for him.
O. GORDON,
Of Centralia one of the best informed
woodsmen in this section Of the state,
was unanimously chosen as the candi-
date for Surveyor. A better nomina-
ton could not have been made.
II. OsTERMAN,
an enterprising and thrifty German
from the town of Grand Rapids was
the unanimous choice of the conyen-
ton for Coroner. AS this Office re-
quires a man Of good judgment,
though the work is not extensive,
vote cast for Henry is vote cast for
man who can be depended On and who
is qualified to fill almost any position
