The County Ticket.


renee. There is no reason to doubt
but that these gentlemen comprising
The peoples ticket will he elected.
The people have tired of the ring
method in the Democratic party, and
why shouldn't they? A few OF this
party have dictated their party nom
inces for years past and the rank and
file see no end to this proceedings
unless brought to halt at the polls.
They apprchend that couple defeats
Of the ring ticket will have whole
some effect upon the bosses and
they are going to give them dose
of it this fall. You can readily see
the advantage this will bring to you.
Observe Frank Lusck, T.. e. Mecum
and Ed Franke's position in your
convention last August. While Ed
FRANKIE had a majority in the con-
vention he was helpless to act, be-
cause he was not in the ripgs Were
you to be placed rin similar
position, you ,~unld be treated like
wise. Ia short you must lie MEM
ber of the ring or else suffer defeat
in the convention. The ring rule;
do away with it, and you promote
yourself on an equal with the other
members of your party.
Our people have placed a number
one ticket III the field. One free
from bossism. They were the
choice of the people, because they
are competent to fill the offices to
which they have been nominated.
Henry E. Fawcett, the candidate
for Sheriff, is one of Eklands most
successful farmers. He is genial and
pleasant to every body, and when in
control ofthe Sheriff's Office he will
do his duties with as little offense as
is possible, for his good nature
would not allow him to do otherwise.
at the same time he will do his duty
firmly and promptly, as all good
officers must to carry out the mans
dates of the law, Henry is in a
position to help poor man and will
assist his friends as eX-Sheritf Utz
did during his term. Give him your
support and you will have no cause
TO regret it.
Will j. Lawrence, the candidate
for Prothonotary is man of more
than ordinary education. He is an
old school teacher and as such was
successful, Notwithstanding the re-
marks of the Ringsters, who head
the Democratic ticket, to the con-
trary. Mr.. Lawrence if elected will
do the duties OF this Office more sat-
isfactory to the people than our
friend Mr.. Gavitt. Lawrence is
genial good fellow who has pleas
ant "word and smile" for
every body, while Gavitt is good
fellow. but cross and irritable. Just
like all school teachers who have
just left the school room. 1t per>
haps is not his nature, but was
brought on by the wicked children.
We presume Lawrence was that way
when he quit the school room, but
he has gotten over it and is now
sociable everywhere. He enjovs the
esteem and confidence of all
who know him throughout the coun-
ty and Us our Prothonotary he will
give the best Of satisfaction. He is
a man of most pleasing address and
makes friends with all whom ne
meets. The business of the office
like the past, will be in trusty hands.
when he assumes control.
No Doubt where They Stand.
