THE REPUBLICAN TICKET.
The republicans of Audubon county
in convention the 18th acted with
harmony and wisdom. The ticket nom
mated is strong one in every particu-
lar, and will win at the polls. Every
candidate is the proper man for the
place he is selected for, combining the
merits of competence and good citizen
ship, which recommend them TO the
support of men of all parties aud be-
lief. The aim of all good citizens is
good government and to seCpre that |
end men Of honor and ability should !
be chosen to occupy the positions of
trust and honor. In harmony with |
this spirit, the republican ticket is re-
commended with deep and abiding con-
fidence to the voters of Audubon coun-
ty.
The nominee for representative, DR.. !
A. L. Brooks, of this city, is 4 young
man in his thirty-secOnd year, and n
native Of Iowa, having been born in
Benton county. His lot was that Of all
farm boys and at sixteen he was
granted certificate and commenced
teaching school, pursuing at the same
time studies which would ftI
him for the profession If his
choice. After thoroughly cducat-
ting himself for his profession, he
came to Audubon county IN 1873, locat-
ing in Gray. removing to Audubon in
1888, where his business has grown to
great proportions. AS an honorable,
skilled and conscientious practitioner,
he has won such favor and confidence
in the county as is only conceded to
such a physician. From a business
view. the Doctor has made sacrifices in
accepting the nomination, though ap-
preciative of the high honor which the
convention conferred upon him. In
all the county there could not be found
one more worthy of the peoples trust
and confidence, or enc whom the public
in general could find so much pleasure
in electing to an Office which represents
the intelligence. honor and manhood of
growing and prosperous county. DR..
Brooks is young, progressive, in sym
pathy with the people, of the people
and for the people. Solicited by men
of all parties to accept the nomination,
he is a popular candidate with hosts Of
friends, and backed by a confidence
which has never been violated and
which will remain to the end.
In choosing Mr.. John c. Dawson as
the candidate for Treasurer, another
Iowa boy was honored, he having been
born in Jackson county, and having
but recently passed the twenty eighth
mile post in his career. This nomina-
ton was based upon merit and was
without partisan influence. Mr.. Daw-
son has been an employe in the offices
of the auditor and treasurer for nearly
five years and from first to last his
pages are clear of mistakes. Accurate
in his accounts, honest in his dealings,
courteous and affable at all times, of
irreproachable personal character, he
has been a universal fayorite with pat
rons of the county offices, and the nom
ination is the result of the favorable
impression thus made, rather than OF
any political manipulationS. John {
Dawson is popular with the people Of
Audubon county because his transac
tions of public business have always
been satisfactory and because he is al
ways courteous to all. Merit has al
ways won. 1t always will win.
In the denomination of Supt d. P
