to be congratulated over the work of
their conventi6d which nominated the
county officers. The ticket is strong
one, and is composed of good clean
needed for any OF those named on it.
With it we.can wage q vigorous and
aggressive campaign from the start
We are not placed on the defensive
with a single man Oh the ticket. Each
one is thoroughly qualified, in every
way, to FIJI the position for which he
is named, and there is nothing in
either the public or private record OF
any Of the candidates for which we
need to apologies or which will put
us OH the defensive during the cam
pagn Each of the candidates are
well known as ststunch Republicans,
standing squarely OIL the st Louis
pla torn for sound money and protec-
ton to American industries. They
are pledged too, and are working for
those principles, and each and every
one of them should have the vote OF
every man in the county who believes
in the opening OF the mills and factor
les of this country to American labor
and who are in favor OF paying for
that labor in good sound money,
worth one hundred cents on the dol
lar everywhere. And now q word as
to the individuals composing the tick

lize the agricultural possibilities OF
this locality and purchased eighty
acres of land along the Wisconsin riv-
er about two miles from town and
commenced farming on a small scale
