Next Tuesday.

horny handed sons Of toll will choose
a number Of public servants to hold
places Of trust for the ensuing two
years The one Of most importance
to Superior at this time, IS that Of
Member Of Congress. 1t Is not ncces-
sary to say a word for Mr. Price III q
spirit Of fear regarding his election toT
this is matter in which there Is no
doubt but we do honestly think that
situated as we are and under ell the ex-
listing circumstances, Superior should
give him her unanimous support irres-
pective Of party ties. lie Is the man
to whom all Of both parties must look
for aid, he it is who viii have to look
to our interests in any and all Ma
tional legislation we may desire, ana
we therefore think il bat right and
just that we as 4 whole people should
rally to his support.
The next most important Office to
be filled is that Of Assemblvman. Mr..
Canute Anderson, of Brunette county.
has been chosen by the Republicans OF
the district, as a fit man to fill that
position, and from all that we can
learn, we think they have chosen wise
~. Again there is no doubt as 10 his
election, the district being largely and
permanently Republican, and as in the
case of Mr.. Price, we think Superior
should give him a solid vote. In
making these remarks we do not ask
any Of our Democratic friends to re-
nounce their political faith or the rul-
ing principles of their party, but
because it seems judicious, wise, and
the policy Of home protection or self
preservation. We may perhaps eyince
too much selfshness in our views, but
we are but human and these thoughts
are after all but natural ones. We as
town and one people, will. no douht,
require some special legislation this
winter. We think all will agree with
us that we need change from our
present organization. We cannot
longer be the only town in the county;
we will soon have a town on the line
of the y. r. road at a point between
here and the Junction, and still
. another on the line Of the Omaha
road; and, therefore, we shall need
some kind Of a local organization.
either village or city charter, as may
hereafter be determined upon. With
such an organization other special leg
islation will follow, and it behooves Us
as united people to have a man in
the Assembly who can work with US
most heartily. We DO not imagine
that Mr.. Anderson would refuse to
listen to our appeals and petitions,
even though the town should give n
majority against him; but again, he,
too, is human, and would no doubt take
a greater and more active interest in
our affairs with all his hackers and
friends, than he would with even one
half of the people opposed to him,
When our local needs are all supplied
we can then return to our party ale
glance and vote, if we 50 desire, our
straight party tickets; but now, at
least, let Us stand by those whom we
must hereafter ask to stand by Us.
rs to the local, or county ticket, we
have but little 10 say The candi-
dates are pretty we'll known to you
all. Look them over carefully and
vote for those that in your judgement
will best serve the interests of the
place and county. We think the men
who are property owners should have
the preference, if for no other reasons,
that they would have the greater in
centive 10 look after the best interests
Of our county affairs. Consider all
the facts carefully and thus vote in
diligently and the TINES will be sat
isfed with the officials elected and
heartily join them in all measures IN
Gugurated for the public good, and the
upbuilding Of Superior.
