Review Of the Several Candidates 70 be
Voted fpr November 0.


The Republican county ticket contains
as good lot of men ~ haA ever beeW
~nSsYs,ro the people oi this connty for an.
elective office. They ace all clean, com-
pctent citizens Of thiz county and no
Republican need feel any heritancy in
giving the ticket vote from top to.
bottom The candidate for sheriff
MANyILIE b. WAITE
~ one of the pioneer residents OF tins
county. He has been identified with all
81 the movements for the organization
of the county. lie came here To make
this county his home and has clung
tenaciously to his purpose, owning today
one Of the inert farms ia the county.
lie il a tax payer and AZ such il inter
ested in the welfare of the county. lie
is not here simply TO nuke IA stake
and then go away to some other part of
the country To spend IT, lie believes in
investing his money right here and has
carried his belief into practice. He il n
Republican from principal. The mere
fact that he is IL candidate for Office is
not the incentive that keeps him within
the pnity. He has always been loyal To
To the patty aud deserved the honor
which his party il seeking to give him.
His one term az sheriff OF this county has
been good one and that courtesy that
il always accorded TO members oi the
Republican party, all other things being
equal, * certainly due Mr.. Waite. Give
him the united Republican support for
lac deserves it,
FRANK w. Cole
il the nominee for clerk. Mr.. Cole has
been at the Dunn mine for the past eight
years and has made fast and warm
friend Of everyone that has come to
know him closely. lie comes from the
lower part 81 tlc state having been born
and brought up near Detroit. lie is Il
young man 81 exemplary habits and we
challenge "A man 10 say word
against his reputation or his abil-
ity. lie il especially fitted for tie
position by his long terinat clerical
work at the Dunn aud other mines.
He Is systematic; a fine penman and
will make "A model clerk in every
way. Mr. Cole was "a candidate for the
clcrkslp two years ngo but failed To get
the nominations That inct did moi
change his loyalty to,thc party in the
least and he went home and worked for
--ti,e Republican ticket straight With the
result that every vote east IN Mastodun
township was cast for the Republican
ticket This il the first time that Mas
todon township has asked for anything
and il will be an net OF ineratitude 90
the part oi the Republicans il they do
not reward that towushhip. Many Al
time she has saved the day to the Re
publican party by her Overwhelming
vote.
MICHAEL II. MORTALITY
seeks the office oi county treasurer and
he seeks 10 upon his merits asa treasurer
of Crystal Falls township where nc col
lccled more tax than iyc-sixths "a
the rest of the townships combined. lie
did this not 10y forcing the poor man to
pay aud allowins.the large land owners
and wealthy lumbermen TO escape as Is
too often the cnse. Rich and poor alike
were the victims oi Mr. Morarty's cam
paign. We need a man of Mr. Muriarty X
stnmp ia the office OF county tra~ul CT
To straightcn out that office. Since the
organization az there has constantly
come from nl over thvcounty conn ltnts
against the t,casurcr's office. Whether
these complaints are just OF not II isnot
ours to say, but We know whereof wc
speak when we say that Mr.. Moriariy
will give satisfaction 60 the people oI
this county in that Office il such can b,
given.
Mr.. Moriarty was "A candidate foi
probate Judge two years ago. He wne
offered trndc OF delegates by west
side candidate whereby lac could VIII
hut ho refused, aH by accepting that
trude he would have Co turn traitor to
n candidnte iOr another Office. As a
result he WAS turned down. Loyalty tC
pnriy, ftucss for the office and truthful
Dess Df purpose Is the platform upon
which MIR. Moriarty seeks the Once nnd
the Republican party will make IA wise
selection il they choose him ns the man
to handle the funds FOR the next two
years.
Isaac W. BYEEs
the candidate for prosecuting attorney
IN a perfectly deserving man. We snit
ont snv about him last week 40 il h un
necessary to repeat IT, Mr.. Bycrs wai
not the choice Of the writer at the out
scn but be Is the choice uf the maiorit,
OK the Republican committee and w
consiter the choice oi the party para
mount to that % any member especiall,
when the nominee il Thoroughly efficient
AN honorable mnn aud obtained hi
nomination fairly md honestly. w
