Our Ticket.

In another column will be found the
republican ticket for Trego county. It
goes without asking that the WORLD
supports it all. Can any one assign any
valid reason why we in common with all
good republicans should not support it?
Every candidate is competent. The
truth of this statement has been demon
strated. It will be admitted by every
body. The candidates are all good
moral men and good republicans. This
statement will also be admitted. What
more do good republicans want? True
we may not all have our choice of all the
candidates. We seldom do. Is that any
reason why republicans should bolt?
Almost anybody can support a ticket
that exactly suits them. The present
campaign is one of principle, very largely,
and this is no time to settle private griev-
ances. Close up the ranks!

The Boys In Blue.

While present at the republican con-
vention last Tuesday our attention was
arrested by remark from delegate.
He said: 'This looks more like soldiers
reunion than anything else" Investi-
eating we discovered that the remark
was timely. In seemed as though nearly
all the old soldiers in the county were
present and they were all enthusiastic
for the republican ticket. President
Polk isn't in it with the old soldiers of
Trego county and the alliance is already
back number. Among those present
we noticed the following: Henry Cutler,

or Candidates.

Sheriff Courtney is q farmer. soldier,
entirely competent, reliable and trust.
worthy, He has held the Office one term
= entitled to another. Not
single good reason can be advanced why
he should not be reelected.
George w. Cross is a farmer. BE has
held the Office one term. just long enough
to demonstrate his competency. Not a
word have We ever heard uttered re-
f1ecting upon his ability. If Cross has
an enemy in the party or outside We do
not know of it.
w. @. Marshall is candidate for re-
election to the Office OF treasurer. He
has assumed the dnties OF this Office for
about one year and no one questions his
competency and fitness for this important
and responsible position. The people of
Trego county don't want any inexper-
fenced boys in this Office. We can't
afford to run such risks.
G. A. Hoar has been re-nominated for
county clerk, and better nomination
could not have been made. We assume
that only one objection can or will be
urged against him and that is he has had
the Office for a couple of terms. We
think there is not much in that objection
when put in the scale with his recognized
qualifications for the place. Mr.. Hoar is
peculiarly qualified for this Office. Trego
county never had better officer, and we
might truthfully add-no other county
In addition to his qualifications, or rattle,
an additional qualification, we might
mention his obliging, accommodating
disposition. No man, woman, or child
ever went to the county clerks Office with
out being treated courteously and kindly
But the consideration that out weighs
them all at this particular time is, he il
q republican. There is no good, valid
excuse for not supporting the nominee Of
the rarty for county clerk.
CO.. Ferris was re-nomiDated for com
ty surveyor for two reasons. His quallfi
cations are conceded and there were nc
other candidates. This is an important
Office and everybody is interested in hav
ing competent man to fill it. Republi
cans will all vote for Mr.. Ferris and g
number of democrats and alliance men
as we'll. As business proposition they
can't afford to do otherwise.
A. P. Lawrence received the nomina.
ton for coroner, unsolicited, and in fact
he tried his best to decline. This might
ip the event OF the death, resignation, OF
removal of the sheriff, become a very i'm.
portant Office and there are no better men
in the county than A. P. Lawrence
There was no mistake made there.
For commissioner of End district, W.
B. CIPHER was re-nominated unanimous
ly. Trego county has always been fortu.
nate in having good board of commits
sioners and no risks, whatever, will be
run in returning Mr.. CIPHER. He is on
tirely competent and always has the in
terests of the county in view.

Alliance Nominations.

The Alliance met last Monday an d
named a county ticket to be supported at
the coming election as follows: For treas

Register Of Deeds, Jasper Rogers, of
Wilcox; Sheriff, James Powers, of Coll
yer; Coroner, Joseph Brown, of Collyer;
Surveyor, Amos McCollum, of Ogallah;
Commissioners for End district, Daniel
Pershing.
We never make personal fight on
candidates unless We are satisfied that
the good of the community demands it.
A newspaper is under moral obligations
to treat candidates fairly and, We might
add, justly. We ae personally acquaint-
ed with all the candidates and are friend
" with all and it gives US genuine
pleasure to be able to say that with a
single exception the candidates are all
good men and, we presume. competent.
The exception is the candidate for treas
urer. Our best judgment is that he is
It gives ua pain to say this

1t is not entirely question of candi.
dates this year but the question of prin.
ciple enters very largely into the contest
The alliance has done more to injure the
reputation of our fair state than all other
causes combined and the only way to
courteract that influence is to oppose
every attempt of the alliance. There il
not much politics in a county Office but
there is encouragement for the party.
