T. z. WILSON.
We now come to our county
ticket where the voter should he none
the less prudent in making a selection.
The office of representative is one of
the utmost Importance, since the man
chosen for that responsible position is
part OF the legislature, and upon the
political complexion OF that body hangs
the destiny of the state. Hon. T. =.
Wilson is the man whom the Peoples
Party offers for that exalted position.
lie is a man thoroughly acquainted
with economic principles of the gov
ernmeut and has suffered as much as
any man i'll the county from shame
full and corrupt legislation. 1t is TO
bring this stare back TO the people.

county and the state of Kansas can feel
proud. j. W. DObsOn is the man whom
the opposition offers for the place that
Wilson is destined TO fill. Every one
IN the county IS versed on Dobson 5
record as sheriff of this county which
of itself is enough to defeat him, to say
nothing of the pernIcious laws he ad
vOcates. The public documents of the
district and county clerks offices pre-
sent spectacle of outrageous and il
legal fees, in the way of mileage, ETC.,
which cOnyicts him of the grossest
fraud. His record in the Thompson
case is one winch should make every
honest citizen blush for shame, and we
should think he ought to be willing to
retire to private life with such record
behind him. But this is not all. DobsOn
will vote for a gold basis man for U. 5.
senator; he will vote for laws in the
interest OF railroad and other corpOr-
atoms of the state-in short he will
oppose any and all remedial legislation
to masses of the state. For the safety
and welfare of yourself and family,
We urge you to vote for Wilson.
HENRY SPARKS.
The Office of district clerk is not a
political one, but you should be CAREFUL
to choose man for the place who is In
sympathy with the producers and wage
earners of the country. You should
reward merit by electing HenrySparks
He is one of the plain honest farmers
of the county, upright and competent
and one who will treat his constituency
cordially in his official capacity. Dur
ing his term as deputy of that Office he
has been everything that anybody
could require. His opponent, Otis
Lorton, is and has been the local editor
of the Cresset for the last six years and
has been bnslly engaged in dealing out
political rot at the mandates of his SUI
periors, many times becoming insult
| ing and slaDderOuS. LOrtOn is not a
needy man: he has thrlyed for 10, these
many years, by virtue of his connection
with theCresset, ON liberal fees paid him

; enough for him, without placing him in
,he second best paying Office within the
gift of the people. Vote for Henry
