A GOOD MAN.

Owing to misunderstanding
that prevails among the voters Of
the LIST commissioner district of
Morrison county, in regard to the
Republican nominee for county
commissioner, I will venture a
few words of explanation. E. S.
Hall, the nominee, is not from
Green Prairie, bat from the town
of Clough, where he has a farm
and has lived for number of
years. I have known Mr.. Hall for
about four years, and can say that
a better man could not have pos.
sibly been picked for the office.
He IS an honest, upright, energetic
man, who can neither be bulldozed
nor bought, and if he is elected,
the citizens of the LIST commission.
er district will have a man on the
county board who will always do
his duty as commissioner, and
who will not be afraid to stand up
for the district he represents. He
is man who is highly respected
bv all who know him.

Silver has dropped in value since
1873 just as many other com.
modities have dropped, because
the supply Of it has increased
faster than the demand. In 1873
the worlds production of silver
was of the value of $S1, 100000.
In 1892, even when measured by
it's lower price per ounce, it was
Of the value of $196, $1,000 or
nearly two and a half times as
much. In 1870, three years before
the decentralization, which the free
silverites claim is alone to blame
for the fall in price, all the mines
in the world only yielded silver to

preached economy in this county In
the campaign of 1894. but when the
commissioners fixed his salary as
county attorney at $500, he appealed
and got Judge Searle to raise 1t to
$780," Lyon tells the same story
in his canvass, yet when Lyon was
elected county attorney and the
commissioners fixed his salary at
$1O5o, he would not take even that
but appealed and "got Judge Searle
to raise it to $1,000"
But neither the Herald or Lyon
mentions the fact. Nor does either
remind the voter that the

work OF the county attorney are
much larger during Rhodes term
than during LYONS.

satisfied with the long time he has
been sustained in office, especially as
he has had the best Office within the
gift Of the people OF the county. He
has been register Of deeds for eight
years, and the income has been very
large. But about a year ago he
concluded he could not divide any
thing with a deputy, and since then
has obtained the entire income; and
only now has Office help to allow
him to personally ask the voters for
their help again. Before he was

postmaster, and before that was
deputy auditor. From nearly the
day he came to Morrison county to
the present time he has been in public
office, and he certainly has never
rendered any special public service
that placed this community under
obligation to keep in fat places con-
tinuously. 1t is Just the right year
to make a change in register of deeds,
and give another citizen a chance to
serve the public for q while. There
is no fear that l.. Gaudet will not he
u good official, and he deserves the
support of the voters. Vote for

silver. Rhodes j. said the United

strenuously denied. until Rhodes
produced United States supreme
court reports proving the truth Of
his assertion. Then Bureau wanted
to read the decisions, which Rhodes
handed him. Bureau spoke after
Rhodes but wholly ignored both the

had so dlsmally failed to make. Had
the decisions not been ON hand,
