ABSOLUTELY PURE
ELECTION, TUESDAY, NOV. 6.

ILLN ll'ANs %'S - W
The Democrat has heretofore made
personal mention of each of the can
didates on the Democratic ticket. 1t
can be said with truth that better
ticket has never been presented to the
voters of Iowa county, and we fully
endosse the kind words said for each
man named on the ticket, in the
following which We take from the
Dodgeville Sun of Oct. 25:
Just one week from next Tuesday
is the day upon which the state and
county officers are to be chosen for the
ensuing two years.
The state administration for the
past two years has been one to be
proud of and one which the people of
the state will certainly sanction at the
polls Nov. 6, by a good majority.
In Iowa county the Democrats
have placed in the field a ticket which
is certainly one of the best sets of
officers ever presented to the people
for their consideration.
Henry Halverson, the candidate for
county clerk is one of the best officers
ever elected to county office. He
has held the position for two terms
and has fully demonstrated to the
county his ability as clerk. Mr..
Halverson had the misfortune when
child but four years old to be stricken
with scarlet fever, which left him
cripple and is thereby left unable to
perform any other labor than clerical
work. He has obtained good edu-
cation which is all he has to rely on.
Daniel thinner, candidate for sheriff
needs no special mention, as his record
as sheriff speaks for itself. Iowa
county never had sheriff that gave
the general satisfaction that Mr..
thinner did, and the people should see
to it that he is the next sheriff.
The man placed in nomination for
County Treasurer is a first class bust
ness man and is at present chairman
of the County Board and has been
member for a number of years.
People should see at the polls next
November that Josiah Ward, of
Avoca, is elected County Treasurer.
William PIERCE, the democratic
candidate for Clerk of the Circuit
Court, is young man fully qualified for
the office. He is man well liked in
the community where he lives. The
home endorsement which Mineral
Point people will give him on election
day will demonstrate the fact.
Ernest C. Fielder, the nominee for
District Attorney, is well qualified for
the position. He is one of the ablest
attorneys of the county which is
demonstrated by the lucrative law
practice which he now enjoys. He
has been retained as attorney in
several important criminal cases and
has shown his ability as a lawyer.
Frederick w. Beeeher, of VALID
wick, candidate for Register of Deeds,
is a young man with a good
education and will fill the office to the
satisfaction of everybody. He had
the misfortune of losing one of his
arms and is thereby unable to do any
hard work. The people by voting for
him will place in office good man.
Jacob Rollins, of Linden, candidate
for Coroner, is an old resident of this
county and good staunch democrat.
The voter will see that his ballot is
marked in favor of Mr. Rollins
thereby electing man that will be
credit to the office.
AS a surveyor he record of T. II.
Arthur needs no special mention. He
has served the county for number
of years and the people can make no
better choice than by placing T. H.
Arthur in office.
John Shelton, candidate for County
Superintendent, is graduate of the
State University and has attended the
Normal at Platteville for a number of
years. If elected he will be one of
the best superintedents the county has
ever had.
Andrew j. Dornan, for the Assem-
bly,, is a resident of Moscow. He is a
a man, if elected will serve the county
in the legislature to the perfect salts
fastion Of all.
