Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1893-03-31

county judge, The Dodgeville Chron-
icle tries to make capital out of the
fact that he is resident of the county
seat. The Chronicle knows full well
or ought to know, that the duties of
the Office of county judge were never
performed more promptly, or more
satisfactorily to all concerned, than by
Judge McIlhon, the present incumbent.
The argument on account of residence
is too selfish and fimsy to have any
weight with voters.
