Our County Ticket.

Our candidate for Representative
has not only peculiar ability for the
Office, but a long experience which
makes him especially valuable as our
agent to look after our Normal School
interests in the legislature. Can our
opponents say as much OF their man.
For Sheriff James Fl. Kinnear has no
real opponent. The people OF the coun-
ty have learned to know him during
the past fourteen years and they will
give him a rousing majority next Tues
day.
VI. F. Strock, of Saltriver, candidate
for Collector, is another splendid selec-
ton. His home township will give
him rousing majority and he will
sweep the county in spite of every effort
the opposition may make. Indeed his
election is already conceded.
For Prosecuting Attorney there is
no comparison between our nominee,
Mr.. A. D. Risdon, and the bourbon
nominee, either in experience or abili-
ty. We do not believe that the people
of Adair are ready yet to jeopardize
their interests or to place the proseeu.
ton of its offenders into unexper-
fenced hands for the mere "whim' of
su-called peoples ticket" They are
neither fools nor fanatics to thus vote
and act against the best interests of the
county. Mr.. Risdon has made an able
and Conscientious prosecutor, and care
full at all times to conserve the interest

his official duties. He will be triumph.
antly elected.
Our candidates for Judge, Mr.. James
II. Novinger and Geo. r. Huston, are
both men of the people, and have the
confidence of sober thinking men of all
parties. No stone will be left unturn-
ed In the first district to beat Mr.. Nov
niger, but it cannot be done. Owing
to the similarity of names on the DEM
ocratic and republican ticket, voters
should bs very careful that they are
not imposed on. We have a clear hun
dred majority in the district. Let
every vote be put In strait on Tuesday.
Our candidate for Treasurer, Marcus
j. Ross, is another splendid nomination.
The opposition seemed to have despair
ed of finding any flaw in mis- character
and with all their mud singing and
SANDER Of the ticket we have not heard
breath against him.
FL. c. Sohn our candidate for Assess
or is making splendid race, and his
popularity with the people of the coun-.
ty will be fully demonstrated on elec.
ton day.
For Surveyor the Republicans nave
presented the name of thoroughly
competent and qualified man in the
person of Stephen Hall. This is an
office which has no "pol1tics in it." but
requires man thoroughly prepared
and fitted for its duties. Otherwise
endless trouble, litigation and loss may
ensue to property owners. Farmers
and land owners especially are vltally
interested In seeing that not only a
good man, but also thoroughly COM
petent man is chosen. Mr.. Hall has
these requisites.
For Coroner and public Administra-
tor We have presented John Waddill
and James Wait. Both good citizens
and conscientious, careful and qualified
for the positions.
The voters of the republican party,
In primary election, guided by an in
telligent judgement have thus given
US perfect ticket-a ticket that chal-
enges the scrutiny of the public, and
one which for its fitness and merits will
not only deserve, but will command tho
respect and the suffrage of the people
of Adair.
Our only duty now as republicans
remains to be discharged. And that is
to see that every man on 1t is triumph
