THE TICKET.

be found the ticket nominated at the
democratic convention on Saturday last.
Every person on it is quite we'll known
throughout the county and every candi-
date nominated had decisive majority.
At the last election the county gave the
democratic party large majority, and
that given this fall should be relatively
as large. ALI the candidates were in the
field for some time before the convention
was held, and their fitness was, no doubt,
fully discussed.
For State Senator, John Carey was
renominated. Mr.. Carey has had exper-
fence as legislator, and in his legisla-
tive duties has always acted SO as to fur
ther the interests of his constituents
He is one of the few farmers of the state
who fill the position of state senator and
in intelligence is the peer of any of his
associates. Those who know him best
like him best, a sure test of worth and
ability. As chairman of the county board
for years, his ability in public affairs has
been amply demonstrated.
For sheriff John Bolen secured the
nomination. a man who in the last few
years has raised up an army of friends in
the county SO devoted and SO earnest as
to be without parallel in the political
history of this county. Mr.. Bolen's pop
ularity is not limited to any nationality
or to any section, but seems to pervade
the whole county. He has never held
any public position but has the qualities
which bring success in any POSITION
force, energy and persistence.
Henry G. Buhse was renominated for
county clerk. Mr.. Buhse is not an I'M
tried man, and his re. nomination may be
considered an Endorsement of him as an
officer. He had opposed to him strong
man and good one, and it is no slight
tribute to MIR. Buhse's popularity that
be won under the circumstances. Mr..
Buhse always polls large vote and this
fall will not be an exception.
G. A. Gielow captured the nomination
for county treasurer. Mr.. Gielow has
held local positions of trust in Newton
and Two Creeks, and is man of super
ior intelligence, He has had temporary
charge of the county clerks Office and
has done some work in the Office of the
county judge, showing competency in
both positions. No better proof of his
strength is needed than that he wrested
the nomination from "honest old Colt
lieb DAIMLER" who never yet neglected a
public duty. Mr.. Gielow paid his OPP
ponent just tribute of respect in his
acceptance speech.
For register of deeds Fred P. Mueller
was re-nominated,-Mr. Wolf of Eaton
being his competitor. Mr.. Mueller is
noted as the candidate who gets over
whelming majorities, having exceeded
1900 at the last election. Wherever he
is known he is liked and he has friends
in every corner of the county. Fred's
majority this fall will be delight to
himself and surprise to his opponent.
A. J. Schmitz was nominated for dis
trict attorney by reclamation, having no
opposition, some weeks ago Mr.. Wal
keI having announced he was not can
didate for any position. It is genuine
| pleasure to present the name of such a
man as Mr.. Schmitz, one of the most
out spoken and fearless of men, who has
friends because he has force and honesty.
and enemies because he chooses not to
be silent when he thinks wrong is done.
Mr.. Schmitz has mind in perfect har-
mony with his disposition, seeing the
strong points in a case and going direct
! ly to the gist of the matter though he
may be unmindful of the little things.
| He made an able and conscientious at
torney when he filled that position be-
fore, and he is so pronounced democrat
that he wouldn't want to be elected unless
the whole ticket was.
clerk of the court in opposition to H.
Falge, the present incumbent, and a
gentleman whom every one respects.
Mr.. Chloupek passes everywhere as 'one
of the squarest young men in the county"

suth for a number of years and invariably
did the best that was in him. His frank,
open face is an index to his character.
