The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1886-09-02
COUNTY CONVENTION!

ternoon accomplished with more
than usual dispatch and splendid
satisfaction. Hon. Henry Shideler
presided. The ticket nominated is
f~rst-class, and cannot help but
command the support of every hon
est and fair-minded voter in the
county, in preference to the one
nominated by the Republicans a
week earlier.
II. L. ROBBINS, the presentincum-
bent was re-nominated for Auditor.
Every person in Preble county
who has had public business to
transact in the Auditors Office dur
ing Mr.. Robbins term, must adj
nit that he is the most accomodat-
ing and pleasant person that has
ever filled the place. Rich or poor,
high or low, black or white, are all
treated kindly and ~courteously,
and if there ever was a public SER
vantin Preble county who justly de-
serves his Second term" for Off
cial f%aithfulness, impartial liberali-
ty, a correct and honest discharge
of his duties, that person is Hiram
l.. Robbins, and we sincerely be-
lieve that a majority of the voters
will so decide on the I'd Tuesday Of
November next. There is no rea-
son why he should not be re-elect-
ed, when it is so well known that he
is SO admirably qualified and fitted
to discharge the duties of the office
to the entire satisfaction of all par
ties.
FRANK JONES was nominated
by reclamation for Sheriff. There
is no need of an extended editorial
notice of Mr.. Jones. He was born
and reared among us and is known
as a man of sober habits, strictly
honest and upright in all his bust
ness transactions, and would make
such a Sheriff of Preble county as
would give it credit at home as well
as abroad, and would not carry his
~partisanism to such an extent as
to insult the common sense of his
opponents. He should be elected
for various reasons which will be
made known before the day OF
election.
SAMUEL GULIcK Of Twin Town
ship, was nominated by acclama-
ton for Recorder. Mr.. Gulick
has assessed Twin township for al
most as many years back as we
can recollect, and has the credit OF
returning to the Auditors office
the neatest and most correct set OF
books of the twelve county assess
ors. He is a good scribe, has fine
business qualifications, is a pleas
ant and affable person and would
make a Recorder that could not
help but give entire satisfaction to
all parties. He did not ask for the
Nomination. sought him while
he was at home attending to his
little patch of land at Lexington.
MARTIN SHERMAN of"Little Mon
roe" received the nomination by
reclamation for Commissioner. He
is a successful farmer, well and fa-
vorably known in the northern sec
ton of our county as q careful and
prudent financial manager, and
square in all his business transac-
tons. He is just the man to repre-
sent the minority on the Board of
Commissioners and it will be great
ly to the advantage of the tax-pay-
ers of our county to see that he
gets there.
MARTIN L. FUDGE of Washington
Township, was nominated by &C
clamation for %Infrmary Director,
and is one "eminently fit to be
made" On this Board there needs
to be a Democratic watchman. The
taxpayers know it. Everybody ac-
quainted with Mart. Fudge agree
that he is the person for the place,
that he will makes careful and eff
cient member of the Board of Di-
rectors for the %Infirmary far supe-
riorto his opponent. Heis no office
seeker, and was nominated while
at home experimenting his private
affairs.
DIR. DAVID WOLFE of Twin Town
ship was unanimously nominated
for Coroner, and if there is an IN.
D." in this county better qualified
to sit intelligently on corpse"
than DR.. Dave we would not know
where to find him. He will receive
a tremendous vote in his neighbor-
hood. =.
AS the campaign progresses the
DEMOCRAT will have more to say
on the ticket and local political
matters generally.
