battle cry of the Ramsey county Demo-
Gratis in the campaign this fall. and
back OF that cry stands the cleanest,
ableSt. brightest and best ticket that
the Democrats Of Ramsey county ever
placed in nomination. Commentator
on every hand and from every side
poured in OH the candidates throughout
Saturday night and all day yesterday
from every source, and even Republican
partlsans had word of cheer and
favorable smile for it. The Republican
Pioneer Press comments on it so favor
ably that it almost amounts to an in
dorSement. and on the question of a
non partisan Judiciary congratulates
the Democracy of Ramsey county upon
having done the best days work in its
history. From head to foot, in either
convention, the ticket stands out bold
and bright, studded and starred with
men whom all can work for and vote
for without the fear of having made a
mistake in their choice.
The county ticket at its head carries
the name of a mali who will receive
the largest vote and the largest major.
ity ever cast for any county candidate.
William A. Van Slyke. With Van as
the leader. the balance of the ticket
forms phalanX as solid as any that
ever backed leader in peace or war,
and all over, yesterday-in the corr idors
of the hotels, OH the streets, and in fact
yerywhere-came the expression that
the Republican convention could
not do better than take at least
one name from that ticket and
place it on theirs-that of that
young but able attorney, who has made
the most brilliant record of any public
official in the history of Ramsey county,
Pierce Butler. If this is done then
indeed will the question OF a non
partisan Judiciary be solved completely.
Comment on the balance of the ticket
is almost unnecessary, so complete and
thorough was its consideration and
selection at the convention. Anton
Miesen is so well known to the voters
of Ramsey county by the magnificent
and magnanimous campaign he made
two years ago that he can rest assured
he will this year receive the complete
vote OF his party.
NJ. +. Kahn has a record that will
carry him to success, and the business
community take his nomination as a
compliment to them.
John s. erode is known as the eff
cient. capable and competent assistant
county treasurer for many years, and
every one knows that he will fill the
place made vacant by Treasurer Nelson
Oh the first day of next January in the
most acceptable manner.
William Koch, the young man placed
in nomination for register of deeds, is
new man Oh the ticket who comes from
the working class, and in his position
as foreman of the DAILY GLOBE for the
past nine years has made record for
himself and an acquaintance among
Democrats that few men possess. 1t
can be said tor him that in twenty-one
years he has filed two trusted and re-.
spOnsible positions. thirteen years as
assistant foreman on the Pioneer Press
and nearly nine years on the GLOBE. A

of.
James A. F. Dowlan is another young
man who is known as a junior pioneer
of Ramsey county, and whose father. at
one time public official, stands as one
of the most respected and honored old
settlers IN the county. Mr.. Dowlan is
In business for himself. and from his
success in this line can be mea sured his
competen cy for the position of abstract
clerk. for which he is a candidate,
Thoroughly reliable and honest and in
acquaintance he knows everybody in
the city and counts his friends as
legion.
For judge of probate there is old
Uncle John B. Olivier, than whom there
is no kinder or better friend in the
world nor more competent to preside
over court which controls the destin-
les Of all unfortunate class of people.
That Uncle John will be elected there
can be no possible doubt.
For coroner, DR.. E. II. Whitcomb
needs no mention, for Doc has so many
friends that it would be news to no one,
and it is doubtful if he will have any
opposition when election day comes
around.
Taken altogether, it Is one of the
grandest tickets ever put in the field by
Democrats. and the cry of "Van SIyke
and Victory" will bring every man on it
TO serve the people for the two years
following Ian I 1907
