TIE AUDUBON REPUBLICAN.
BY J. E GRIFFITH.
THE REPUBLICAN TICKET.

The republicans of Audubon county
in convention last Thursday, named a
county ticket to which the party can
give enthusiastic and united support.
Each candidate is man, representative
in his own community, and is assured of
popular home support. Furthermore,
each nominee is man of ability and
competence, and each will honor the Of
flee to which they will be chosen next
November
S. N. Gardner, the nominee for repre-.
sentative, is one Of Greeley townships
prominent and successful farmers. He
is man Of good ability and his hard
and earnest work in anything he under
takes is well known among all his
friends and acquaintances. A sterling
republican, every year of his long resi-
dence in the county, has found Sam
Gardner working with all his might for
the success of his party. Mr.. Gardner
is good man in every respect and is a
man, who will do his full duty in the
Office for which he is a candidate
For treasurer Mr.. L. d. Phelps is again
the candidate of his party. In the past
he has made an ideal public servant, in
this most important county office, and
his election will insure the continuance
of a most able and satisfactory service
in the treasurer's affice. A better or
more competent treasurer than l.. D..
Phelps can not be had and it would be a
mistake not to continue him in the office
the affairs Of which he has so ably
managed.
Thomas Davis, of Viola township, is
the party's candidate for the office of
sheriff, and the general comment on his
nomination is "a good man for the place.
He is man of good ability, as his sue
cess in administering lis own affairs
fully demonstrates, and he is amply
qualified to manage, and manage we'll,
the Office OF sheriff. Well thought of by
his neighbors, respected among his ac-
quaintances, and OF wide popularity, he
will make that sort Of earnest and az
gressive campaign that will make him
sheriff of Audubon county after January
2, 1888
Prof. d. ?. Repass is again the nomi-
nee for superintendent Of schools, a po-
sition in which long service has proven
his excellent qualifications. For almost
eight years he has been the official head
of Audubon county's educational system
and no county in Iowa has had better
or more successfully managed schools in
that time; than has our own. A man of
learning and of singular ability in the
management of school matters, Profes-
sor kepass has not only kept up with
the times, but has constantly sought to
advance the high standard of the public
schools in the county. BY far the most
competent school man IN the county, and
recognized as such on every side, he will
be continued in the place he has so ably
ard honOrably filed.
Supervisor Nels p. Hoegh Is for the
second time hisparty's candidate for the
office of supervisor. Mr. Hoegh's candi-
dacy will rest on its merits and his work
in the important Office of supervisor in
the past, speaks for what may he expect
ed in the future. His qualifications for
service in this Office have been demon
strated during his present term and in
deciding in favor of Mr.. Hoegh for
another term the people of the county
know just what to expect
DIR. KoOb for coroner and H. S. Wat
ties for surveyor are good nominations
Both gentlemen are qualified and both
are time tried republicans.
