mitted to the people of Pierce county
for their suffrages in November was
completed by the Kepubli can County
Convention held at Ellsworth on Mon
day. The entire ticket will be found
at the head of our editorial columns

itself to the earnest support not only

publicans. Prohibitionists and Anti
Monopolsts as well.
For Member of Congress, Hon. VIM.
T. Price is the standard-bearer, a gem
tleman whose legislative record
proves him to be opposed to all ques-
| tionable methods of getting money
out of the public treasury; one who is
strong in his convictions of right and
duty and who ably defends them, no
matter what may be the strength OF
| any opposition with which he may
have to contend. The universal de
mand for reformation in Cougression-
al legislation would soon be met,
could majority in that body of Mr..
| Prices makeup be secured.

| Warner, personally well known to
many of our readers, is the candidate.

tegrity, efficiency and fidelity to the
trusts reposed in him to which his
friends take just pride in referring
His sympathies are naturally with the
common people in all their efforts t.
avert oppression in any form and he
has never identified himself with any
| interests which tend to turn them in
an opposite direction.

rest our case.
