THE SILVER NOMINEES.
The Ticket to Vote on the Sth
of November.
STATE SENATOR.

lo-uO general merchant OF this
r county and holds 'em down at the
old stand at Bailey's station on the
) Mountain Home and Rocky Ban
stage road. Several years ago Mr.
Bailey invested his small capital
the earnings of honest toll, in a
small store on Little Camas prai-
RE, and it became the nucleus of a
well stocked and successful general
mercantile business, which has
weathered all the storms Of finan-
cial distress. The fact of his sue
cess in his own business affairs is
good evidence that the business OF
the State is safe and will prosper in
the hands of a legislature composed
of men of Mr.. Bailey's stamp. He
is an uncompromising free silver
democrat, capable, and a man of
irreproachable honesty and integ-
rity. Make Mr.. Bailey your Scna-
tor by the big majority he deserves.
j. A. NICHOLSON,
Our nominee for Representative,
is an old resident OF this county
and has for many years been en-
gagged in mining and farming near
Rocky Bar, where he resides and
has raised a most respectable fam
lily. Mr.. Nicholson is a life long
free silver Democrat, and since 1890
has been Justice of the Peace of his
precinct, and his long tenure of
that office shows the confidence
placed in him by his home people.
He has been identified with labor
organizations since their introduce
ton in this country nearly ten
years ago. During the war OF the
rebellion he served with credit in
the Union army and was honorably
discharged. Judge Nicholson is a
typical western miner. As Gilmore
is a workingman's county, the till
ers and toilets will be well repre-
sented by electing him. Vote for
Jim Nicholson for Representative.
w. HI. MANION,
Nominee for Clerk of the District
Court, is well known through this
county as staunch Democrat and
an honest and Conscientious and
capable public officer. Mr.. Manion
is also from the ranks of labor,
having for many years followed
mining and farming. Having a
good sound literary and business
education, he is well fitted for the
position for which he is nominated,
in literary ability as well as official
experience. Having creditably
filled the position of deputy clerk
for three years and as clerk for the
past year, Mr.. Manion is thoroughly
acquainted with the records of the
county and the routine of the clerk
and recorders office. In 1890 he
was elected as county commissioner
from the second district, and as an
endorsement of his career in that
responsible Office he was reelected
in 1892. Although Mr.. Manion has
a popular and wealthy goldbug OPP
ponent we predict his election by
at least $50 majority.
JAMES O'NEILL.
Jimmy O'Neill, the nominee fol-
Sheriff and the present Assessor
and Collector of this county, is also
a hardy son of toll, and one of the
first in this county to rally around
the Populist standard, under which
he still remains. Mr.. O'Neill, al
though a native of New York State,
was raised in the west, and since
the early sos has worked in the
mines of Wood river and at Rocky
Bar. Two years ago he was by an
overwhelming majority elected as
SCISSOR and collector, and he has
made the best officer in that ca
pacity in this county, by honesty
and strict attention to duty. The
fact that he was almost unani-
mously nominated for sheriff is
sufficient proof that he has the con-
fidence of his numerous constitu-
ents, and his election is an assured
fact. Vote for jim O'Neill and you
will elect a man of stainless record.
