Mr. Reid is an able young lawyer, with an extensive acquaintance throughout the circlit. and if elected to the position he asks, would perform promptly and efficiently the duties de- volying upon him.
 Through the earnest solicitations of his many friends Mr. W. G. Bullock has consented to make the race for as- sessor and his announcement appears to-day. Mir.

 Hon. Jordan E. Cravens has issued q card to the pubic setting forth the fact that he will present his name to the democracy of the fifth judicial district for nomination and election to the off, flee he now holds, that of circuit judge. His qualification for the position is so well established that we can add noth- ing that is not already known to the people. He has been uniformly cour- teors and kind to all and should he be reelected will serve with as strict fidelity the trust reposed in him in the future as he has in the past.
 Prof. B. A. Kuhn of Potts Station is out for county and probate judge. In calling attention to his candidacy it would seem useless to speak of his many suitable qualities to a people al- ready well acquainted with them. He has been connected with the schools of Appleton and Potts Station for several years, also closely identified with the public school interests eyer since be- coming citizen of our county. To say that he is high-toned, honorable and worthy, would be repeating what every one knows who is at all acquaint- ed with him. We commend him to the voters believing that he would be faithful in his duties if elected.
