one of the most important Offices i
the county is the clerks office and
hehooves the people of the county To b
careful in their selection for this otlic,
In the first place the man who hold
this place must be competent and as
second qualification he should b
pleasant and accommodating. Th
republican nominee, Mr.. j. III. Crar
of Guide Rock, is well up to tn
standard in both of these essential az
co%mplishments. He is also well up i
the keeping of books and is a legibl
scribe. The books of the clerks Ofiic
require a man who is a good penma
and the man who can't read his Ow
writing after it becomes dry has n
place there. 1t will be Mr.. j. IL. {
running the clerks Office il he secure
an election and not Mr.. j. II, Is as |
the election of the populist candidate
