Los Angeles herald., 1890-10-11

bv the buSiness-like manner in which
he has conducted the office, and by his
suave and urbane treatment of the
people. 1t goes without saying that
Mr.. Masters is very competent man,
and will bring to the county clerks
Office the highest qualifications for the
discharge of. its duties. Beyond this,
he is one of those men who are born to
popularity and who win quickly and
wear long. As public speaker he has
few superiors, and he is perhaps one of
the most amiable, all-round good fell
lows in the county. He will play sad
havoc with Pasadena's Republican
majority.
Hon M. E. G. Munday, for district
attorney, has made hosts of friends
since he removed, several years ago. to
this CITY, He is a first-class lawyer,
and is thoroughly equipped to conduct
the district attorneys Office in way
in which it has not been conducted
since it was last in the possession of
Democrat. Mr.. Munday pertinently
said to the convention when he was
nominated: "If elected, the SUPER
vlsors will not have to 60 outside for
legal talent to do the county's business;
for promise that it will all be done
by myself and my deputies" 1t is not
generally known that Mr.. Munday,
when in the legislature, laid the founda-
ton for the irrigation laws that are
now doing so much to develop the re-
sources of this part OF the state. Mr..
Munday is personally very popular, and
will make it very sultry for the callow
and jejune youth the Republicans have
put up.
Mr.. j. w. Pember ton, for ,superin-
tendent of schools, is man OF fine edu-
cational ability. He is the principal
of West Vernon school, and is recog
nized as one of our best educators. He
is gentleman of fine character, wins
upon all who meet him, and will bring
to the Office he is nominated for capa
city that will be OF great value to our
public schools.
DIR. H. Nadeau, for coroner, needs no
introduction to the people of this coun-
ty. For many years he has stood at the
head of the medical profession in this
city, and is immensely popular with all
classes. He is the idol of our French
colony, and tor many successive terms
has been the physician of the French
Benevolent society. He has already
filled the Office of county coroner, and
the people do not forget that he made a
supremely efficient one. He will make
brilliant race.
Mr.. L. Friel, for county surveyor, is a
very accomplished engineer. He has
made surveys for some of our principal
railroads, and is deemed by all who are
acquainted with him and qualified to
Judge, one OF the best and most reliable
surveyors in the state. He is very
conscientious man, and will conduct his
Office on the highest principles OF pro-
bity.
No portion of the Democratic ticket
suggests more agreeable associations or
kindlier recollections than the name of
DIR. Joseph Kurtz, the Democratic can
didate for county treasurer. He is a
tower of strength to the ticket. His
long residence in the city and county,
his spotless integrity and universal pop
ularity assure him a phenomenal sup
port. Our German-American fellow
citizens will vote for him to man, the
whole voting population OF foreign ex-
traction will follow suit, while he is, if
possible, held in more regard by the ma
tive-born than by the foreign-born voter.
His election ought to be looked upon as
a foregone conclusion; and if he should
assume this most responsible trust, An
glefios of all parties will know that their
money will De safe to the last farthing.
He is mascot to the Democratic ticket.
When the convention caught ON to
the happy thought of nominating Mr..
j. G. Harmon for tax collector it not
only showed it's Difference to the country
districts, but recognized the worth of an
especially capable and reliable man.
Mr.. Harmon has served the people as
supervisor and given them sample Of
the stuff he is made of, having more
than realized the anticipations of his
constituents. His long residence in this
county, and high character, mark him
out as a vote winner. No man knows
our people better than he.
The nomination of w. &. Waters,
Esq, for public administrator, may be
accepted as the reward for long, faithful
and efficient party service. Mr.. Waters
has for years discharged the arduous
duties of secretary OF the Democratic
county committee with fidelity and
ability which have rarely been equaled
in that position. A young and able
lawyer, he would bring to the discharge
of his trust unusual intelligence and
technical knowledge.
The Democratic nominees for super
visor are exceptionally qualified by
great local experience OF county affairs.
