The best educated man in the coun.
ty-if he can be obtained-ls the man
for county superintendent; and of the
two before the people, he who ranks
the highest should be chosen. What
do the certificates of the candidates
show? Go to the county superintend-
ents Office and see.-Globe.
We join the Globe in this invitation
and hope the voters will examine The
certificates of the two candidates. In
like the Globe. we do not shy behind
the Yankee method of answering a
question by asking another. This
leaves too much doubt in the minds of
the readers. Mr.. Beadles average
standing was just Observation-Disclosures
OF ONE PER CENT. higher than D.
Swinehart's. What an enormous DIFF
ference! Can any mind conceive the
chasm yawuing between these two can
didates? Nine-thirteenths of one per
cent. is indeed a difference for the vo-
ters to study over. 1t will we'll repay
a trip to the court house to discover
that this nine thirteenths of one per
cent. is the difference in the standing
of these two men.
But there is one difference that the
voter may study with profit, and which
may have escapee the attention of the
Globe. It is this:
The LOWEST Mr.. THE LOWEST
SwINEHART STOOD Mr.. BEADLE
IN ANY GRADE WAS STOOD IN ANY
20 PER CENT. GRE WAS 75PC.
As matter of fact, this shows that
MI. Swinehart is his opponents su-
perior as an "all round scholar" to
use doubtful phrase. It shows that,
while Mr.. Beadle is we'll up IN some
studies ne Is below the average stand.
ard in others. It shows that, while
Mr.. Swinehart's average was nine
thirteenths Of one per cent. lower than
Mr.. Beadle's, yet his lowest per cent.
was ten per cent. higher than Mr.. Bea.
dies lowest. Educators concede that
it an examination shows nothing lower
than 30 per cent. in any study, the one
examined is thoroughly competent. If
the examination shows less than 80 per
cent. in any study. the one examined
is considered weak In that branch and |
should study up. This seems to be
the case with Mr. Swinehart's oppo-
nent; while high IN some, he is very
''rusty' in others.

now for the pioneer but to stand bacl
and give way tn the thrifty farmer.

G. NJ. Hoover consented to he a
candidate, not from choice, but be.
cause he was earnestly solicited to dc
so by business men and farmers who
believed that his election was for the
interests Of all classes. Ford county
has certain claims to be presented to
the legislature this winter, and they
must be presented in a manner and BY
a person capable Of gaining hearing
If these demands are not listened to,
the county will lose some Of the in
stitutions which are now helping to
keep her up. What has been Mr..
Hoover's record in the past as an ad-
vocate of the people interests? When
he was in the legislature before, ten
thousand dollars was allowed this coun-
ty in claims When the question Of
the soldiers home came up, he was one
Of the first appealed to for aid, and it
was given. When an effort was made
to move the Garden City land Office
here, he was among the first to sub
scribe. When disaster came to the
farmers, he contributed time and mon
ey to buy seed. When it was propos-
ed that an lnducement be offered to Sc
cure cheese factory here for the
farmers, 800 was set opposite his
name as a subscription. When there
was talk of the division being moved

prevent the possibility of a removal be-
ing made. No public enterprise, no
movement for the general welfare of
Ford County has been started but
what the name of G.. NJ. Hoover
has headed the list. He has paid
thousands of dollars in taxes to the
county. He has thousands Of dollars
invested here. He has watched the
county develope from the time of the
buffalo hunter and the Indian until
the present day, and during all that
time be has identified himself with ev-
cry progressive movement teading to
the general welfare Of the people. He
is man of such sterling worth that
his word is as good as his bond. He
is honorable, upright and conscientious,
which precludes the idea of his stoop-
ing to the ways Of politician, He j.
an example Of the Office seeking the
man. You say these are '.udatorv
words. Go out among M a who have
known him for scOr,, of years, or ask
men who have dor.e business with him.
Shall We throw aside this representa-
tive man For one whose own organ is
advocating his election simply because
ne Ia a farmer? Shall We loose sight
OF our interests through the election of
man whose only claim is that he is a
farmer? Shall this sentiment business
be our guide in casting ballot, or will
we conside. worth, intelligence and
ability. Ford county voters have shown

this year will be no exception to the

Now truth compels us to say that Mr..
Finley cut very Insignificant figure IN
the success Of the fair. He atteuded
along with other farmers, and that b
practically his part in making the fair
a success. Again the Globe says:

est to write something they, as a mat.
ter Of course did not believe. The
candidates will, between them, pay the
proprietors of the Globe s25 per week
for giving them a chance to say some
thing for themselves through its COL
umns. They opened the ball in this
week Glese and said some very pref
ty things of themselves. In fact, their
virtues were hidden under the tradi-
tionaI basket, but with the pen, paste
pot and scissors in their own hands.
their capability, integrity and excel
lent points will be fully shown to a
heretofore ignorant public. The cx-
eellent idea of the candidates writing
their own virtues to the world is easily
understood when one considers that q
person is always acquainted with their
own characteristics. Their multifari-
Gus virtues are known to themselves
better than to any one else, and in this
way they can all be written up. While
to some it may seem little embarrass.
ing to write of ones own goodness, it
is excused with the plea that desper-
ate straits require desperate remedies.
From money standpoint the Globe
has no reason to complain. Indeed, it
may be called sharp bargain, as the
paper will be strengthened with the
party and will not suffer from lower
ing its heretofore high editorial stand
ard. While some may question the
Globes consistency in refusing through
conscientious motives, to laud the can.
didates, and then turning its columns
over to the candidates for a moneyed
consideration, this will be readily over
looked by the printing fraternity at
least, as the latter are fully aware Of
the dullness in the newspaper bust
ness. The Times extends to the new
editors a welcoming hand and trusts
that their journalistic venture may BE-
pleasant if not profitable.

Why was it that the county had "a
pay the extra expense and trouble Of
maintaining an assistant attorney-gen.
eral in the year 1888? Was it BE-
cause the caunty attorney was lacking
in anything?-Globe.
1t was done SO that certain party
could feather his nest with the taxpay-
ers' money; and after all the extra ex-
pense to the county, was there ever .
time either then or later that liquor
could not de obtained? What good
did the assistant attorney general do,
except to cause the county thousasds
Of dollars expense? There WAS no ex-
