]. E. Kirkwood,

j. e. Kirkwood,
j. j.. Kirkwood, representative
elect of Harrison county, is to be
congratulated upon his able, clean
and gentlemany canvass for the
honorable position of representa-
tive in the state legislature. Hav-
ing received the nomination from
both democratic and populist par
ties without solicitation, and ac-
cep4ing itwith the full understand
ing that he was the choice of both
parties, and as such, he entered
upon the canvass, determined to
conduct the same in spirit of
falrnnss and gentlemany candor,
so that if elected, he could act in
fairness for the best interest of all
the people, and now, as the cleo
ton is passed, he feels proud of
his endorsement by the people at
the polls, and pledges his best en-
ergies and ability to promote the
good Of the people as their servant
in the legislature of the State. He
is not unmindful of the ability of
George w. Eagan, his opponent,
but acknowledges his worth as a
competitor, and feels a just pride
in his scholastic attainments, but
may be permitted to suggest that
his defeat will rebound to his adj
vantage, and in the days to come,
when he has reached ripper years
he will feel to thank his friends
for his lpresent defeat. He has a
bright future before him, and we
will feel proud of his future sue
cess. And now, to his own per-
sonal friends Mr.. Kirkwood would
not be unmindfull of their labor
to bring him success. His nomi-
n alton was a good one. He is q
manof integrity, sobriety, energy,
and experience, and will enter the
legislature with mo friends to re-
ward or enemies to punish" His
life has been spent largely on the
farm, and therefore had not so
large an acquaintance in the coun-
ty as other candidates, and would
have preferred to vote for others
rather than to solicit votes for self
but being called, he entered the
race to win, and used every hon.
orable effort to succeed, and when
victory came to him he felt it to
be the expressed will of the voters
of the county that he shall repre-
sent them in the legislature, and
for this Manifestation of conidenre
in him he tenders his heart felt
thanks to all.
Our advocacy of his election was
not because we thought less of his
competitor, but because we felt as
sured that the age and experience
of j. q. Kirkwood would the bet
ter advance the interest of the
people and advance the party who
nominated him. He is identified
with the labor intererts of the en-
tire country, possessed Of ample
means, q farmer and friend of la
Dor, and a citizen of whom all may
feel proud. He may not make as
much noise in the legislature as
some men but the people Of Har-
rlsop county can depend upon one
thing. and that is-he will vote
= = interest of all the
people. Such is our representa-
tive elect.
