Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1898-06-03
THE TICKET TO VOTE.

The election will occur on next Mon
day. We know at this time that practi-
cally all of the voters Of the county have
their minds already made up as to how
they will cast their ballots but on the
eve of the election we wish to call the
attention of the voters again to the can
didates on the Union ticket, for we wish
the voters to be fully informed regarding
them.
The state ticket is headed by Will. R.
King, a young man of ability and integ-
rity, ana one In whom the voters oi the
state have reposed confidence in the past
and that confidence has never been be-
trayed. He is a man of independent
character and sterling integrity, and
should the people honor him with the
election to the high Office of governor,
he would faithfully and fearlessly per-
form the duties of that office without
fear, favor or partiality.
For secretary of state that uncompro-
missing silver fighter, H. R. Kincaid, has
been nominated. He has acceptably
filled that position for the past four years
and his record has been on the side of
the people.
John o. Booth is the nominee for state
treasurer, and is one of the most popular
men in the state of Oregon, and deserv-
edly so. He is broad-minded, public
spirited and strictly honest. When he
is elected and assumes the duties of his
office, there will be no further scheming
with banks and corporations to profit by
the interest on the state money
Judge VIM. E. Ramsey, the candidate
for supreme judge, is one of the leading
attorneys of the state. He is lawyer
of ripe experience, high attainments and
unblemished honor. His election would
break the partisanship of the supreme
court, which has become notorious dur
ing the past few years, and would be a
credit to the state.
The candidate for state printer is
Charley Fitch, of Clackamas county, and
his was good nomination. He is one
of the leading country newspaper men of
the state, and will bring a practical
knowledge to the Office. The newspaper
fraternity all over the state will delight
to honor Charley Firch.
H. S. Lyman, the candidate for school
superintendent, is an educator of years
of experience. His fitness and qualif-
cations for the Office are undisputed and
acknowledged. He is an uncompromis-
ing foe to the American Book Co., the
corporation that is robbing the state on
ninety-eight per cent. OF the books used
in the public schools, and his election
would mean the loosening of the grip of
that monster on the schools of the state.
For congressman the candidate is well
known, and but little can be added to
that which has heretofore been said of
Mr.. Veatch. His election would mean
silver victory of note, and it would be
the placing of an active, energetic and
hard-working man in the halls of con-
gress. His election is practically assured
at this time.
/ For circuit judge the name of James
w. Hamilton, of Roseburg. will appear
on the Union ticket Mr.. Hamilton's s
nomination was good one, and was the
recognition of the ablest lawyer in the
district. He has been tried by the peo-
pie of this judicial district before, and
has been found to have been faithful
and competent servant. His many old
friends in this part of the country, re-
gardless of politics, will rally to his sup
port.
The candidate for district attorney il
II. Denlinger, Jr., a home man. There
is but little that we can add to Harry's
good name in this county. He has lived
heIe for years, and has built himself w
here. For the past five years he has
been practicing law here, and during
that time he has built up good law
practice and established an honorable
reputation. He is energetic and studi.
GUS, and he will bring to the Office Of
district attorney, should he be elected
both ability and integrity. In his eau
didacy there is home interest being
taken, and the result will be big ma.
jority in this county for Lincoln county's
popular candidate, Harry Denlinger.
For joint senator the candidate is well
and favorably known over the two coun.
ties. He il a strong free silver man and
