The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1888-10-06
ALL NOMINATED.

Both parties now have all of their
candidates in the field, except those
of a purely local nature-the county
ticket. The Republicans will name
their county candidates this afternoon
and the Democrats theirs next Tues
day. But all local matters will adj
just themselves in due time. and 1t Is
quite likely that trades" and "com-
binations" will be made, rs is fire.
quently done, which will result in the
election of both parties for our local
Offices. But it is not of these that we
wish 10 particularly speak at this
time. These are purely local admin
istrative offices, and while good men
should be selected, they have no di-
rect bearing upon the national ques-
tons.
Wisconsin is not a doubtful state,
by any means, but every Republican
should take pride in seeing how large
a majority we can pile up for our
national and state tickets, hence we
urge diligence in this direction. Next
comes our congressman. There is
hardly room for doubt in this mat
ter, still it will not do our Republic
ans to go away from home and leaTe
their doors unlocked. Mr.. Haugen,
the Republican nominee, has been
tried, and his fidelity and ability
to look after ana defend our interests
has surprised even his warmcst friends,
and those who opposed him two years
ago are ali supporting him today, but
hi1 opponent, DR.. Johnson, and his
party, will leave no stone unturned to
defeat him, and as eternal vigilence
is the price of liberty" we adyise all
republicans TO he vigilent until the
votes are counted and the proper re-
turns made in November. This done
victory is assured.
We now come down to our state
senator and assemblyman. The Re
publicanS have nominated Hon. Chas.
s. Taylor, of Barron, for the former
place. and Monday last, nominated
Hon. l.. II. Meade, of Washhurn Co.
for the latter place. The Democrats
have nominated as opponents to these
gentlemen, Mr. Malcomb Dobie, of
Hayward, and II. II. Grace of West
Superior. The editor of the TINES
does not try to disguise the fact that
he never has been and is not Taylor
man, as that term is usually applied,
neither does he try to disguise the fact
that since 1886 he has been an every
da, true-blue republican; though he
may at times haye refused to support
some nominee OF the party. And
right here and ROW Is a time when we
chcerlulIy loose sight of self for the
good of the party which has done so
much for Us and the county at large.
Our party demands that every profess
ed Republican should lay aside all his
personal preferences and grievances
against this or that candidate, or this
that or minor or unimportant theory,
buckling on the whole armor and pan
oply of Repubiicanism, enter the field
as true soldier equipped for the bat
tie. 1t is with this object that we lay
aside our objections to Mr.. Taylor, FOR
instance, and give him a hearty sup
port. He is q Republican true and
tried During his official term Wis
consin Will elect another United States
Senator, and Mr.. Taylor will work
and vote for a Repahhcan. Mr..
Dobic, his opponent, while in every
way gentleman and good citizen,
is rank Democrat and would, if
elected, vote for Democratic Senator
and thus help to turn our state oyer
to the rebel Bregadiers. In such Il
case we have no trouble in making
our choice, and We can honestly say
to all who loye the Union, to come
and vote with US for Mr. Taylor.
MIR. Meade, the Republican candi-
date for the Assembly is also a true
blue Republican, lawyer by profes-
sion, a good fluent speaker, and is as
far above his opponent as the sun is
aboye the earth, i'll every essential
that goes to make up a good repre-
sentative. We do like to see our
county represented in the State Leg
Islature but we want to see him taken
from the Republican ranks, for no
free trade Democrat can be friend
OF our interests and and at the same
time true to his party Hence we
say to all, vote for Haugen, Taylor
and Meade.
