Judge of Probate, c.. NJ. Cory and
Rem Mccartney drove, over from
Worthington Wednesday and re-
NAMED over night, guests of the
Central house. MIR. Cory is a candi'
date for reelection to the Office he
now holds and will be elected by the
argest majority he ever had. He
seems to be the right man in the
right place. He has given perfect
satisfaction and the voters prospect.
i've of party will see that he is retain.
I'd in the Office another term at least.
Mr.. Mccartney is young man, am
bilious and energetic and we believe
is made OF a right material for a No.
l Sheriff. He will have the entire
support of the republican voters and
will also draw a good many votes
from the other parties. Although he
is running against a strong candidate
on the opposition ticket, Gilbert
Anderson, we believe he will have
votes to spare when they are all coun-
ted. He also has the advantage of
an independent candidate who will
draw from the democrats and popu-
lists and practically gives Mr.. Nc
Cartney a cinch on the office of sher.
