We hope every Republican will cast his
vote for Milo White for Congress. He
was the fairly expressed choice of the
convention, is good man, and will not,
in any way, disgrace the district in Con-
gress. The Lake City Graphic gives the
following truthful pen-picture of Mr..
White:
Mr.. White is gentleman who cannot
but make favorable impression upon all
who meet him, on sight. A man about
fifty years of age, we should judge, of
medium height, rather heavy build, with
the gray hairs largely predominating
among the black, and frank, pleasant
face, is general pencil-picture of Mr..
White. He has the appearance, both in
looks and conversation, of being a well
Informed, straightforward business man,
and man who would attract attention
in any company as being among the first
citizens of his State.
A noticeable item is the fact that he
dresses very plainly, though in good
taste-with an evident view to comfort,
instead of flash and show. The man pre-
dominates. The paste diamond depart
ment seems to be absent, in his case.

JAMES F. CARSON is the Republican

JAMES F. CARSON is the Republican
candidate for Representative from the
Northern District of this city. Mr.. Car
son is deservedly popular with his con-
stituency, winning his nomination in the
convention, over three or four compe-
titors, on the first ballot A man of un-
sullied character, Republican of many
years standing, citizen of warm friend
ships with his neighbors. and an honest
man,-who can help voting for him. He
deserves an election by an overwhelming
majority. MIR. Carson is resident of
Racine township, where he settled about
10 years ago. He is 3S years of age, a
native of Maine, and large and success
full farmer. Friends of the north, give
Mr.. Carson your votes. Who can better
represent YOU?

ALL the old residents of Mower county
know Hans c. Anderson. He is, perhaps,
the oldest settler in Mower county to-day.
He settled in the township of Nevada in
1853, when a mere boy, his father being
the first white man to stick his stakes in
that town. He has known all the hard
ships aud privations of pioneer life, and
is straightforward honest man in every
respect, one whom every Republican
can vote for as Representative with the
greatest pleasure. He is farmer, and
can be depended upon to legislate in the
interest of that class so far as it is right
and proper to do so. We hope the people
will give Hans rousing majority in the
Southern Representative district.

The opposition ticket this year is what
is called the Farmers Alliance Ticket"
We are safe in saying that it is no more in
the interest of the farmers than the Re
publican ticket. The majority of the can
didates are seekers after Office. and in
asking the farmers to support them, are
actuated by selfish motives simply. The
Republican is the consistent Farmers

VOTE for Ormanzo Allen for Probate
Judge. He is man of clean record, and
his qualification for that position has al
ready been clearly proven. No man
should, for moment. think of voting
against Judge Allen for the very respon-

peculiarly fitted for the place, and should
be kept there just as long as he will accept

THERE is no more level-headed man in
this country than Senator Edmunds Of
Vermont. Candor is one of his most con-
spicuous traits of character. He express
ed himself with his usual admirable exact
ness in the statement which he recently
made that the Republican party, besides
saving the Union from dissolution, had
passed all the good laws of National i'm
portance that have been enacted, and de-
feated all the bad bills that have been de-
feated, in the last twenty years, against
the general opposition of the so-called
Democratic party. The Republicans have
committed many blunders, and its sins of
omission and commission would fill large
catalogue. No one can claim for it any
immaculateness. But the foregoing state
ment by Mr.. Edmunds is no exaggeration.
And the claim is certainly an exalted one
to make. The Inter Ocean says the great
trouble with the Democracy for the last
twenty years has been an inveterate habit
of exhausting its energies in negative
work. Instead of doing positive good, it
has simply tried to thwart the progressive
purposes of the Republican party. The
records of Congress show that every great
measure now recognized as reform was
stoutly opposed by the Democrats of that
body. They will show further that in
every great blunder of the Republicans
the Democrats had a liberal share. The
past is light upon the path of present
duty. The future must be judged in a
large measure by the past. But no party
can rely entirely upon its record, especially
when, as now, there is very strong dis
position to forget the things that are be-
hind in the eagerness to embrace coming
opportunities. That potential political
factor, the independent voter, is on deck
this fall, and he proposes to judge of the
future by the present, distinctively. All
this is good reason why the true Republi-
can should stick by his ticket. Vote it
clean. You can do no better. Don't be
persuaded into the support of any other
than the Republican ticket.

Republicans have followed this rule in

Report of Proceedings of Democratic

aware that the grand consolidated exhibit
ton, labeled Democrat Greenback, :"
held at Brownsville on the 10Th ult., re-
ferred to a committee of five from each
branch of the show, the arduous duty of
selecting candidates for the offices of
Senator and Sheriff, but they are not
aware, probably, what became of the
matter, because the TRANSCRIPT neglect
ed last week to publish report of the
proceedings of the committee. Well,
there was a meeting of the committee in
this city week ago last Monday, and
after the democrat greenback mountain
had labored all of one day and most of
the following night, they brought forth a
mouse, of just about this size: The
democrats refused to endorse Charlie
Garter for Senator because their conven-
ton had expressly repudiated him as
being monopolist of the first water, in
perfect sympathy with Railway corpora
tons in whose service he has grown rich;
a chronic office-seeker, who it is said,
went about before the Farmers conven-
! ton, begging men to 20 there to assist in
his nomination; and repudiator of his
honest obligations to the public, by re-
fusing to bear his just share of the ex-
pense of supporting public schools. For
these reasons, the democrats refused to
endorse him, and the individuals who
comprise the greenback party Of Mower
county would except no other. The re-
suit was the meeting dissolved without
coming to an agreement, the green
hackers publicly resolving to support the
2 Carriers, and the democrats (privately)
to support DR.. Hollister, and, with one OF
two exceptions, the balance of the Re-
