REPUBLICANS IN CHARGE.
County Governments of Jefferson and
Dodge Changed in Politics.

County Governments of jefferson and
Dodge Changed in Politics.
For the first time in history both JET
ferson and Dodge counties are together
enjoying Republican rule, complete
sets of officers of that political faith hav-
ing been inaugurated Monday. The
change is a result of the will of the
people at the polls On the 4th of last
November, when the honest money
sentiment swept these two usually
Democratic strongholds and placed the
reins of power in the hands of the
Republican party, which so faithfully
espoused it.
The change in the different depart
ments was made quietly and without
ceremony. All the new officials had
previously qualified and the only
thing necessary for them to do was
to take possession of their quarters.
They are now full fedged servants of
the people and will no doubt do their
level best to perform their duty
in manner that will afford no
cause for complaint. They have the
best wishes of THE REPUBLICAN for
successful, pleasant and popular official
careers.
