THE POPULIST TICKET.
John POST,

Our candidate Tor treasurer, II hol 81 VIZ"
known to many of our citizens as we wish he
were, for his sterling integrity, his thorough
ability and his quiet, unobtrusive manner must
be KNOWN and we'll known, to properly esti-
mate the man. He was soldier, and good
one. Since the war, he has been steady and
fairlv-prosperous farmer No truer friend, no
better neiehbor, no more able and honest man
is before the people. If he receives the sup
port he merits, he will be the next treasurer OF
Anderson county, and we feel sure the good
sense of our voters will take him through
THOs. SEVERN,
Candidate for sheriff OH the Peoples party tick
ct, is making a quiet canvass of the county,
into which no bitterness against any other can
didate enters He is before the people on his
own merits, and these are many. AS soldier,
he did good service for his country at a time
when such service meant exposure, danger and
deprivation of most of the comforts of life.
That he did his duty fearlessly and we'll not
even his worst enemy dare deny. AS citizen,
friend and neighbor, his record is unimpeach-
ed. He has never sought the nomination tor
an Office, but has given his whole attention to
the farm. He is we'll qualified to act as sheriff
of our county, and will make competent,
trustworthy and satisfactory officer. Again, he
is only in moderate circumstances, financially,
and the salary of the office would be little lit
that none would regret who favor him with
their support We believe he will be the next
sheriff, and hope every Populist, and many 9TH
ers who know him and like him for his many
good qualities, will be on hand on election day
to give him good send-of.
-i,'.-..r' J. o. OSBORN,
Candidate for county clerk, needs no introduce
ton to our voters, and no word of commentator
from us can add to his high standing and uni
versal popularity. He is one of the best-quali-
fed men in our county for the position for
which he is named His integrity is unques-
toned; his army service is known to all, ard
his friendly and obliging disposition will be a
sufficient guaranty that no one doing business
in the county clerks Office will have any fault
to find with their treatment if he is elected.
He is making good canvass and gaining add
itions to his host of friends. No vote cast for
him will be thrown away
REGISTER OF DEEDS.
Bip-boned, big-hearted Capt. Geo. A. Smith
is getting there in the for register of deeds.
If YOU dopt know him, you may recognize
him by the size of his feet and the way his
head looms up above the average citizen. And,
by the way, that head corresponds with the
size of his feet, and is as we'll filled with the
necessary qualifications for good county officer
as any man in the field. Then, too, his
heart isn't any little, shriveled-up sort OF
an affair, either, as any man will testify who
knows him.. 1t fills the space allotted to it as
full as it can and have room for healthy action.
No poor man. everasked him for help and failed
TO get it if it was about the premises. No
hungry man was ever turned away from his
table emily; for his wife is one of the best
cooks in Kansas, and the Captain is no SLOUGH
of a provider He is just the whole-souled,
generous, competent, friendly kind of man
to have office, and he's going to get it if the
people of our county recognize true worth and
ability, and we are sure they do AS soldier,
he did brave and efficient service, and no one
who wore the blue can 60 back on his record
as a fighter or comrade. Everybody should
delight to give him lift.
DIR. GEORGE scHooNovER,
For coroner, needs no word of commendation
from any one. His long-continued and success
full practice as physician, his sterling quail
ties of head and heart, his devotion to his
friends, his genial, generous disposition, are
recognized everywhere, and should give him a
sure "cinchy on the office.
