 Dr. W. NJ. Johnston, republican nominee for councilman from Coco nino county, is one of the best-known citizens of Northern Arizona, being at the present time proprietor of flour isling drug store at Williams, and physician for the Atlantic X Pacific railway and the Saginaw Lumber Com pany. It was the doctors misfortune to be born in the queens dominions, Centervillc, New Brunswick, being the place of his nativity. The event oc- cured October l5, 1863. Contervillc is only four miles from the line, so that the young man lost no time in crossing the boundary. He came to the United States when Is years of age, and was student at the Michi- gan University, Ann Arbor, graduat- ing as an M. D. in 1887. When start ing out upon the voyage of life almost his first care was to take out the papers that prepare alien born resi- dents for citizenship. He voted in the presidential election in Kansas in 1888, and the ballot was for Harrison. Dr.. Johnston was the candidate of the re- publican party in 1890 in Ness county, Kas., for representative in the state legislature, and carried his own town all but three votes. He is member of several fraternal societies, including the Knights of PyihiaS, Knights Tenn plar. Forresters and Oddfellows. Dr. Johnston is a man of sterling integrity and sincerity of purpose, and his solid position and reputation in the county must commend him to the voters as q very desirable man to have in the ter ritorial council. In addition to his other meritorious qualities he has youth and the vigor and push that are usually part of the equipment of those who realize that we live in an age of advancement. Above all, he has the best interests of Arizona at heart, for it is the land of his adoption and in it are centered his fondest hopes.
