shown his competency to fill the office,
and his other claims merit the careful
consideration of the nominating con-
yention. AS register of deeds, he
saved many homes to their owners,
and many of the latter will remember
this. He administered the office in
the interest of the people. His record
as Republican does not need to be
recalled here, as it is too we'll known
how he has been faithful to it's candi-
dates until he has come to be known
as an old war horse. Mr.. Fowler was
one of the earliest settlers in the state,
coming to Minnesota in 1850, and to
Blue Earth county in 1857. When the
war broke out he enlisted in the Ninth
Minnesota. After being hOnorably
discharged, he has resided here ever
since, engaging in business. He has
been member of the MankatO city
council fog two years, and as chairman
of important committees he has done
excellent service. He always holds
the interests of his constituents in re
membrance. AS an AbstractOrs and
Judge OF titles he has no superior in

loyalty to his county as he is of pat
riotism to his country. He was a far
mer until four years ago, when he was
appointed deputy sheriff by Sheriff
Glynn, position which he held for
three years. 1t can be said to his
credit that he is the first man who
has held the office for three years who
never lost a prisoner, directly or in
directly, or failed to get man whom
he went after. The experience gain
ed while in the sheriff's office qualities
him to step into Mr.. Glynn's shoes
and take up the business of the office
without so much as the slipping of a
cog. That his record as deputy was
appreciated by those who had oc-
casiOn to know is well evinced by the
reports of grand jurors while he was
in the office. Mr.. Bowen never held
any other Office, and never asked for
one, nor has any member of his family.
He is well acquainted in all parts of
the county, and if placed on the
ticket will take up his residence in
the new jail building next Jan. 1St, if
an industrious and fair campaign will
accomplish it, as it will.

"badger" by birth, having commenc-
ed his career in Milwaukee, in 1850.
A quarter of century ago he accom-
panied his family to- Blue Earth
county, and settled in Mcpherson,
where he has faithfully titled the
soil year in and year out nearly ever
since, voting the straight Republican
ticket at every election, and doing
what he could to help "the boys" In
1880 ,he bought wheat in Mankato,
at the warehouse by the Omaha
depot, and brought the price up from:
76 cents to Sl.15 per bushel during the,
time that he was buying. He had a
good opportunity to make money
from the company, but scorned to be
tray the interests of his fellow citi-
zenS, and it is to him that many far
mers were indebted in gratitude at
that time, which they Will no doubt
now remember. He has been treasur-
er of Mcpherson township, held
school offices, and was postmaster of
ST. Clair under Harrison's admiaistra-,
tiOn, He can point with pride to "a
record as Republican Of which any
man might be proud. Besides that, ne

duties Of the office, and a nomination
would be as good as an election in
his case.

ative, subject to the will of the Re-
publican county convention. Mr..
Cross was born in Ohio in 1910 and
moved to Minnesota in 1861. He was
one of six brothers to enlist in the
Union army during the war, and serv-
ed in Co. @ Tenth Minnesota, being
honorably mustered out after three
years service in the defense of his
flag. In 1865 he settled down in Blue
Earth county, engaging in farming,
which he carried on until ten years
ago, since which time he has conduct
ed general mercantile business at
AmbOy. He was postmaster at Am
boy for eight years, and has been hon
ored with various village and town
ship offices. He has never before ask
ed for an office at the disposition of
the county, but has never failed to
take off his coat when there was any
work to be done for the Republican
ticket. These services are still fresh
in the memory of those in whose in
terest they were performed. Mr.. Cross
is an ardent Republican and has been
such since the party was first organic
ed. He is safe man in whose hands
to entrust the growing interests of
the county in the legislature, and if
nominated will sweep the county and
reflect credit upon his constituents in
the halls of the legislature.

and with his parents moved to Blue
Earth county MISS. He enlisted in
Co. E, Ninth Minnesota Infantry, in
August, 1862, and was severely wound
ed at the siege of Mobile, and was
confined to the hOSpital at New Or
leans for some time. In August, 1865,
at the close of the war, he was honor
ably mustered out of the service at
Fort Smelling. For the succeeding
ten years he worked at his profession,
of carpenter and then took up the
study of law and was admitted to the
bar in 1878. He has practiced more or
less since then, of late making a Spe-
cialty of probate law He held the
office of Judge OF probate for time,
retiring four years ago. While in the
office he inaugurated many reforms,
and the office was never better con-
Quoted. Numerous estates were
closed after having dragged along for
years, and he classified the records,
and simplitied and improved the
methods OF keeping the records of the
office. 1t is the common thing that
years are required to carry out the
provisions Of wills, which keep the
estates open, and no matter who is in
office, old estates will always be on
hand to be closed up. Yet neither
before nor since Judge Mead occupied
the Office, has more of this work been
done more faithful and careful
worl Gone to guard the interests
of IL nate heirs. Col. Mead, who
hold Ut high rank in the state
militia, is gentleman in whom the
community places every confidence,
and that he will be elected there is no
reasonable doubt. There has devel-
oped no opposition to him so far as
the nomination is concerned.

his business education he learned at

The FREE PRESS takes pleasure In
presenting to it's readers list OF Re-
publican aspirants for county and leg
islative offices, and in so doing 1T
desires to say that the merits OF each
are presented without favor or preju-
dice. This paper has studiouSly
avoided recommending any candidate
over any other, believing it to be the
duty of the delegates in convention
assembled to exercise the prerogatives
of their position unhampered or I'M
Swayed by the likes or dislikes OF any
one. 1t will be no easy task to select
a ticket with such an array Of candi-
dates, and where there is so little diff
ference to guide one in his choice,
aside, perhaps, from purely personal
friendship or mountaineering. All
are competent men, men OF integrity
and of unquestioned Republicanism,
and the party can rest fully assured
that whoever are chosen the people
can support them without hesitation.
While we have endeavored to give
the names of all the known candi-
dates, there may be and likely are some
omissions, and if such shall prove to
be the case, we desire it to be dis
tinctly understood that it is uninten-
tiOnal.

a century has resided in Blue Earth
county. He lived in Mankato ten
years of this time, and learned and
worked at the trade of stone mason.
and stone cutter. He then moved out
near Rush Lake, and for the past fif-
teen years has been engaged in farm
ing. His fellow citizens have made
him their assessor and member of the
town board for some years, offices,
whose duties he has executed with
great fidelity. Two years ago he was
candidate for sheriff before the Re
publican convention, and fell only
seven votes short of receiving the
nomination. No sores ranked in his
breast, however, and he manfully and
Loyalty pulled off his coat and fought
for the Republican ticket like a Tro-
jan, spending his money freely for the
success of his party ticket. He will
again this year ask for the nomination,
and no more thorOugh-gOing, true
blue Republican can be found for the
office than Mr.. Williams, whose friends
predict that he would carry every
thing before him if nominated.

The present efficient state senator
from this county, and candidate for
denomination, was born at Terra
Haute, Ind, Feb. 4th, 1851, and came
to Mankato with his family on the
illfated steamer "Julia," landing hur-
ridly while the steamer was sinking
just below this city, on the morning
of May 10th, 1867. He has resided in
Mankato ever since then, except the
two years from 1881 to 1883. During
the greater part of this time he has
been engaged in the banking business.
He has held several offices Of trust
and honor, among them being U. 5.
deputy revenue collector, resident dl-
rector of the state Normal school,
mayor one term, alderman and men,
Der of the House of Representatives.
In all these he has been faithful and
diligent, -Four years ago he was nom
mated for state senator against a. IL.
Pfau, who had the Democratic and
Alliance nominations, and after we'll
fought campaign was elected by a
goodly majority. He has been tried
during these four years and 1Ound not
wanting. He has proved ever faithful
to the interests of his constituents
and the best interests of his state. 1t
is largely due to his firm stand that
the appropriation for charging the
state Normal school was not cut down.
Whatever measure was being voted
upon, Senator Barr was always to be
found in his seat and his vote was re-
corded on the right side. If nominal
ed, Mr.. Barr will receive the hearty
endorsement of the people at the polls
by being returned by a largely in
creased majority.

county treasurer, an office which he
has held fer some time with credit to
himself and the county. The county
funds are now in competent, honest
hands, and it remains for the voters
to say whether change is desirable.
Mr.. Lloyd was born in Columbia
county, Wis, and came to Blue Earth
county in 1867, and has farmed it dur
ing most of the subsequent time. He
still manages his farm and his SYM
pathies are with the farmers. In 1882
he was appointed deputy county
treasurer, and afterwards kept books
for two large firms. 1t is not too
much to say that the office of county
treasurer was never conducted in a
more satisfactory manner than it is
at present. Mr.. Lloyd is an expert
accountant, and fine and rapid pen
man, and since coming into the Of
| fee has made many changes which
| facilitate business. He has saved
many delinquent farmers from paying
costs, and if renominated, will prove
his strength with the people by again
rolling up goodly majority in Nov
ember, for he is hustler when on a
campaign.

is now actively in the field. He is an
old resident of the county, although
young in years. He was born in Wi
mona county, in this state, in 1858,
and came to the township OF Lyra, in
1864, and has grown up there and
made that his home ever since.
For the past two years he has
been engag ed in the hardware bust
ness, and he holds the office of treas
urer of the school district. Raised on
a farm, he is thoroughly self made
man, and is one of the kind whom
their fellow citizens delight to honor.
He has never asked for an office be-
fore and now comes before the Re-
publicans as one who could easily be
elected if nominated. He is in every
way competent to fill the office of
sheriff in satisfactory manner and
that he would do so none who know
him doubt. Undoubtedly a strong
delegation will back his claims in
the convention.

came to Mankato eight years ago, and
became clerk for Frink & Richards,
a short time afterwards embarking in
the grocery business. Two years ago
next November he retired from this
business and opened a drug store,
which he has since conducted. Mr..
Gunders is a graduate of the DEBORAH,
Iowa, business college, and attended
the Winona Normal school for two
years. He is good bookkeeper,
careful and painstaking in business
matters, and is in every way compe
tent to conduct the office of county
auditor, for which he is candidate.
He is an unusually bright and intelle-
gent young man, is modest in his de-
meanor and accommodating, and
would give the county satisfactory
service. So far as heard from, there
will be no opposition to Mr.. Gunders
in the county convention, and with
unanimous nomination and the loyal
support of the party, which he will
have, he will be ina position to make a
splendid campaign which can only
end in success.

fore asked for an office, but has stood
loyal to the Republican party, in it's
adversely as well as it's prosperity.
That he could be of service to the
county and state in the legislature
none who know him doubt. 1t is such
level headed men as he, coming from
the agricultural districts, that are
most needed in the legislature, and
with that class of representatives the
state would have nothing to fear from
imprudent legislation. Mr.. Juliar
will have strong backing in the con-
yentiOn.

j. A. Ewing.

This gentleman needs no introduce
tion to the people of Blue Earth
county, for he has been too long and
too prominently citizen not to be
known by name, at least, to every
voter in the county. Born in Edgar
county, Illinois, in 1853, he moved to
Blue Earth county in 1869, with his
family, settling on farm near Eagle
Lake, where his father still resides.
For the past ten years Mr.. Ewing has
been engaged in the general merchan-
disc business at Eagle Lake, and has
built up good business by fair deal
ing, which has gained him the conf
dence of the community. He has
been town clerk a number of times,
and has held the Office of township
assessor, serving faithfully in these
small offices. He was appointed post

Being himself farmer, he under
