The old gentleman is after them; he
has run them into the brush already.
We mean Hon. Lafayette Sims, our can
didate for treasurer, who is out early and
late among his farmer friends. They
give him cordial greeting and say Ego
in old man, we are with you; while you
are not the first treasurer that has ever
been nominated from the country as a
representative farmer. we want to have
it said that you are the first to be elected,
so we are with you and will stand by
you" This is the kind of talk our farm
ers are making, and why shouldn't they?
They desire to be recognized and why
not now while they have the power to do
it. If you do not recognize them now
the time may come when you may wish
that you had done so.

THE republican candidate for register
of deeds is one of the most efficient Of
ficers the county has ever had to fill that
important position. He is genial, ac-
commodating, taking official with
whom it is pleasure to do business. A
farmer by occupation, he is true repre-
sentative of the agriculturalists, and a
man that takes great interest in the de-
velopment Of our county. He is one of
the foremost in fair association meetings
and agricultural assemblies where he
ably discusses their interests to their
profit and advancement. A good man
for any community to possess is Mr..
Goodwine, and as register of deeds our
farmers will find a true friend and coun-
selor when they come to his Office either
on business or for friendly advice.

OUR old friend and former citizen,
LATE Sims, has been nominated for treas
urer of Ford county, Kansas. by the re-
publicans, and his many friends and old
acquaintance in this city and county
will rejoice at his election. LATE is a
good citizen and a thorough going bust
ness man, and will faithfully collect and
guard the peoples mOney.-Martinsville
Ind.) Republican.
Such are the endorsements that our
candidate for treasurer is receiving from
his Indiana home where he had resided
for fifty-seven years, which shows that
he not only had been good citizen, but
thorough going business man; with
such an endorsement from his old home
as this, our people have sufficient proof
that our party has made no mistake in
selecting him as our candidate for county
treasurer.

WE learn that some of the democrats
in the country are now charging d. L.
Sweeney, the republican candidate for
sheriff, with some sort of croOkedness in
the erection of the city hall building.
just what the charge is we are unable to
learn, but to us it matters little what they
may say. If they are honest they must
acknowledge that Sweeney & Foley, the
contractors on the city building, did the
best job of work ever performed on a
public building in the county. 1t is a
veritable monument to mechanical skill.
If ever good, honest job of work was
done in the city, that is one of them.
This fact can be verified by everybody in
the city that knows anything at all about
the construction of that model building.
The Globe-republican., 1889-10-30

The Republican candidates for sheriff,
county clerk, treasurer and register OF
deeds, were in the city Monday. Mr..
Sweeney, the candidate for sheriff, was
but very little acquainted here before the
campaign, but being genial, first-class
gentleman, has in the past few weeks
made hosts of strong friends, who rec
ognize in him man especially fitted for
the position he is seeking. He made no
canvass for the nomination, but since the
republican party placed him in nOmina-
ton. is doing his best for success. Mr..
Sweeney is making splendid race and
the people will make no mistake should
they elect him the next sheriff of Ford
county. j. w. SidlOw is we'll enough
known to need any introduction from US ;
however to make few facts known to
the public may not be out of place :
While Mr.. SidlOw has been practical
farmer, thoroughly identified with the
interests of that class, he has done
everything possible and fair to keep
down the expenses of the county, as
commissioner, and has succeeded, with
the help and work of the rest of the
county board, in lessening the expenses
of Ford county to the extent of over So
600 each year less than what was fOrm-
erly spent by preceding boards. Under
the efficient management of the present
board, county scrip has been nearing
par and it seems to us that it would be
ungrateful not to still further honor so
capable an official as Mr.. SidlOw has
made. Mr.. Sims, the candidate for
treasurer, while somewhat unacquainted
here is reasonably we'll known over the
county and will poll a. tremendous vote,
as he has no interest in any bank or
clique. and no one will have cause
to think they do not get enough for
county scrip under his administration.
Mr.. Sims is thoroughly capable of filing
the position and will to the satisfaction
of all. Mr.. Goodwine has made an
enviable record as register of deeds and
is too well and favorably known to stand
any chance of defeat. Never in the his
tory of the county has there been a more
capable set of men nominated for Office
than was nominated by the republican
convention, and the only question to be
decided is the majorities they will re-
ceive.-FOrd Gazette.

The meeting of county attorneys and
commissioners held in Topeka last week,
resolved to fight the Metropolitan Trust
Company. which holds a mortgage on
the c. K. & n. and A. K. & c. roads,
who wishes to freeze out the interests
several counties and townships have in
the above roads. The meeting resolved
to assess the various counties interested
S25. 900 with which to make the fight.
Twenty-seven counties in all have de-
cided they will not be froze out.-FOrd
Gazette.
Ford county will surely protect its in
terests in this matter, even if she has to
make the fight alone and single handed.
The GLOBE-REPUBLICAN proposes in
the near future to lay all the facts in this
ease before its readers, and urges action
on the part of our county board.

D. l.. SWEENEY, the republican candi-
date for sheriff, is making splendid
canvass and is drawing to his support a
host of hardy supporters who are cham
pioning his race, recognizing in him the
true mettle of which good sheriffs are
made. Dennis is winner if the boys
stand by him. He will not betray their
trust. He will make an efficient officer
and will redeem the pledge he made the
people, that he would not take from the
county treasury any more money than
the law allows for his services.

is one of the best and most acceptable

Congress at its next session will be
asked to aid the west in few political
measures that will add millions to this
much neglected region. Irrigation, first

THE democratic ticket was all made
up in Dodge City. Dodge City is repre-
sented and Dodge City alone. The
country people are only consulted now,
as the election is close at hand and they
want outside help to pull their ticket
through; so far the democrats of the
county are recognized. For voting pur-
poses they are all right, but for office
the city democrats think they are all
wrong

Richfield Republican: Daniel NJ.
Frost was appointed register Of the land
Office at Garden City, Oct. IA, by Presi-

and Mr.. Frost. as register, we are con-
fident that the land Office work will be
done in first class order.

The country republicans are looking
for help from the city republicans to
elect their representatives and they have
a right to expect it. If they do not get
it there will be trouble in the future.
We want to warn our city friends to
stand by them.

THE farmers propose change in our
government and from the pres
ent indications we think they will have
it, too. 1t is right and they ought to
prevail. The city chaps who have fed

ture they will be numbered with the

Personal Paragraphs.


Meade Republican: There has proba-
bly, no appointment been made in Kan
sas that will give more general satisfac-
ton than that of d. NJ. Frost, of Dodge
City, to be register of the land Office at
Garden City. AS a journalist few have
done as much for western Kansas. and
none could bring to the Office knowl-
edge that would better fit them for the
duties devolving upon him. His years
of experience and large acquaintance
makes him conversant with the entire
district he is called to serve. He is no
more to be congratulated than are the
people whom he is appointed to serve.
1t is also proper recognition of one who
as a journalist has done much for the
party.
New West Echo: Tuesday morning
of this week, Hon. D. NJ. Frost, of Dodge
City. received telegram announcing
the fact that he had been appointed
register of the Garden City land
Office. The appointment is one which
meets with the hearty approval of the
people of southern Kansas. and espec-
tally those of Ford county, as they knew
Mr.. Frost to be true republican in ev-
cry sense of the word, and a man who
has worked hard for the success of the
republican party, and is now only receiv
ing the recognition to which he is so
justly entitled.-Republican.
We unite with our neighbor in con-
graduating Frost upon his well deserved
success. Our old friend will make a
good officer, and we are heartily pleased
to record the fact.
Coolidge Citizen: Hon. d. NJ. Frost.
of Dodge City, has been appointed reg
lister of the L. 5. land Office at Garden
City. to succeed Hon. c. F. N. Niles, the
present incumbent. Mr.. Frost is an old
Kansan, having located in this county in
the early part of the seventies. He was
postmaster at this place, then called
Sargent, in 1928, which at that time
was the end of the Santa Fe railway.
From this point he went to Dodge City,
where he has been in the newspaper
business ever since. He is well qualified
for the position and his appointment will
be satisfactory to the patrons of his dis
trict.

Senator Farwelfs Views on the Mat.
of Thai,. listr rihutiou

CHICAGO, April 6.-Dispatches from Wash
lngton published here this morning stated
that Senators Farwell and Cullom were very
much ''put out" at the appointment of John
A. Montgomery to be superintendent of mails
in the Chicago postoffice, because they were
not consulted in the matter. It appears that
the appointment was made by General Super
intendent Ball, and that neither Postmaster
General Wanamaker nor Assistant Post
master General Clarkson were consulted
about the matter. Senator FarWell was in
terviewed on the subject to-day, and said he
was not objecting to Mr.. Montgomery at all
he regarded the gentleman in every way fit
for the position. What he complained of is
that the appointment was made without his
(FarwelD knowing anything about it, He
thought he should be consulted about mat
ters relating to appointments at his own
home.
"Yon are reported to have said" said the
reporter, That the present incumbents in
minor positions will be allowed to serve out
their terms"
"That is my opinion" replied the enator.
81 think that will be the policy Of the admin
istration."
''It is reported that the same difference is
likely to arise between President Harrison
and the senators in regard the patronage as
divided the late Senator Conkling and Presi-
dent Garfield" said the reporter.
~ think there is not much danger of that, :"
said the senator. 81 think the president
proposes to treat us fairly. He is man of
decided opinions. He is an honest, upright,
capable and good man, and will make good
president | do not think he could be severed
from his purpose by anybody. He certainly
could not be severed from what he thought
was right, at ALL"
