ercnce 70 the peculiar political views
OF Mr.. Nichols opponcnt, we simply
remark that Mr.. Nichols will DO re-
elected.
r. w. Smythe is the nominee Of
the republican party for county
Judge. and a man that lever bolted
his party even ii lie did not secure
what lie wanted or aspired to at
that particular time, hut has stood
by the cOlors in season and out OF
season. A man that for breadth Of
len, ming is without a peer; q man
possessed with a wealth OF informa.
tion aud admiralty qualified to fill
the position to which he has been
nominated. We can spare any
other candidate from the ticket as
well as Mr.. S,nythe. Voters, see to
it tia. lie is elected and place your
seal If condemnation on the bolting
business.
Our public schools have prosper
ed under the management OF
Andrew Ring, and we heard II ol
the most prominent educators Of
our state say that il would be one OF
the most unfortunate things that
could happen to our schools il Mr..
Ring was not re-nominated. As
good fortune would have ii lie was
renominated and his denomination
is conceded to be equal to a re.elec-
ton. Friends Of the children, don't
fail to cast q vote for Andrew Ring
for Supt. OF schools.
Andrew Martin of Brule township
is the nominee for audi.or--a splen-
did man for the position. We are
personally acquainted with Mr..
Martin, and can imagine, even now,
what q fine time any man Will have
in getting his Endorsement to bill
against tie county unless il is as
straight as a string, Mr.. Martin is
very much such n styled man as
Mr.. knudson, ex-conmissioner-
quiet and unassuming, but thor
onghly absorbed in any work he is
called upon TO perform. Voters
should notice in particular that Mr..
Martins name is on tEgeir.tickets.
John Il Carlton, editor Of the
Beresfori News is the nominee Tor
clerk OF the court Mr., Carlton is a
disabled ex-Union soldier and emf
nentlY qualified to I'll That position.
This is enough to say Of aiiy man
IN patriotic Union county, as in Mr..
Fitzgerald's case, the "old boys
will all do their level best to see him
the next clerk of the court.
DR.. j. Griffin Conly has been
coroner so long that his reelection
is absolutely certain. The doctor
makes a number one officer.
VIM. NJ. Vinson has located all
the corners row in existence in Tn
ION county, and If there are any
more to locate, he will undoubtedly
Go the job.
r, Fl, Libby was nominated for
commissioner in the third district.
Il. Ii. has Il big democratic MINORITY
TO buck against, but If the tax pay
ers arc wise they will throw party
affiliations aside and elect iir.Libby,
THE speech Of Mr.. Harnden on
Friday night was a very remarkable
one. His subject was, Protection,
and who Pays the Tax" Seventy
six persons were present by actual
count, many OF whom were repub-
licans. Not a lady was present and
it was well there was not, for it GER
tainly was not a fit place for any
lady. We never in all our lives
heard such a mass Of vituperat;on,
invective slang, %scalumny, misrepre-
sentation, billingsgate ,vulgarity and
blasphemy in an hours talk. Many
democrats were SO ashamed that
they sat there and sweat like men
in the harvest field, but out Of party
pride would not leave the hall. We
fully coincide with the Scotland Ct-
taen (democraticl when it says Shat
the best thing for the party to do,
and that right away, is to take Mr..
Harnden off the dump. Here are
Son!e OF the arguments he advanced:
"The present system of protective
tariff was lniquit, US, and was sad-
died on our children and our chill
dren's children"
Every person who reads knows
that it is being changed, even now,
to meet our present and changed
condition. This nation has been
paying an enormous debt, brought
upon us by the southern wing Of
the democratic party. assisted by
the sympathy at least Of a number
OF c%opperlleads in the north, some
Of whom still linger on the shores Of
time.
