Auditor Kahn Docketed, Well
Done, Good and Faithful
Servant.
Not a Weak Spot Can Be
Found in This
Ticket.
Voters Can Consistently Sup
port Every One Of These
Candidates.
Such a BulWark Will Prove
Impregnable Against the
Enemy's Attack.

The battle is practically over. But
one more day of suspense, and each can
date will carry his case to that highest
earthly tribunal-the will of the people
and have it argued by the great and
mighty advocate who presides over the
destiny Of the ballot. There will be no
appeal from its decision; as the voice of
the thousands of voters of the county of
Ramsey decide, SO must the verdict be
abided by, and each candidate must
make up his mind beforehand to bear
his honors with modesty, or his defeat
with equanimity, as the fates decide.
The present campaign has been a
clean one, as far as The county ticket is
concerned. There have been but few
wounds given or received during the
heat of the present contest, and the old
sores which were reOpened have been
few and far between. The county cam
paign has been conducted upon legiti-
mate principles; there has been but
little fighting in the dark, and stabs in
the back are merely remembered for the
part which they played in the local
campaigns of the past.
NO FAMILY SKELETONS UNEARTHED,
ts.shOrn of their winding sheets for the
edifcation OF the public. Personal
abuse has been Supplanted by hard and
telling work on the part of each candi-
date among his constituents throughout
the length and breadth Of the county,
and though from superficial point of
view, the present and dying county
campaign seems from the very absence
of personal issues to have been one Of
predominating lethargy, yet beneath
the surface the battle has been
hotly contested, and never in
the history of the county have
the legions. fought SO nobly. Each
individual member of the ticket has
girded on his armor, and for the past six
weeks fought the opposition individ-
ually and collectively with every muscle
and tendon tightly drawn. and there is
not an inch of ground which has not
been contested; and the victorious can
didates will realize on Wednesday next
that the battle was not decided by
single victorious charge to victory, but
by a hand to hand conflict, in which
each fighter Strove to reach the goal of
ultimate success over the body
OF his PROSTATE FOE.
The Democratic outlook was never
brighter, and in the roster, as promul-
gated by the Democratic county conven-
tion, it is impossible to find weak can
didate upon the ticket, and still harder
TO see how one of the Democratic
county nominees can be defeated. The
ticket is admirably proportioned, and
stands out in startling contrast to the
Republican standard. Almost every
nationality is represented in its compo-
stion. The champion of consery-
ative labor is fanked by the rep
resentative, public-spirited business
man, and the unanimous verdict of the
people of the county will be substan-
tial Endorsement of the entire ticket,
presidential, gubernatorial, congress
sional, legislative and county. 1t is
with pleasure therefore, this morning.
that the GLOBE prints short biographical
sketches and cuts of the county ticket
which it has Endorsed. that its countless
readers can learn who and what the
men are for whom they are called
upon to cast their votes next Tuesday.
