turned by greater vote bhan he re-
celved two years ago.
c. C. Chamberlain, the successful
candidate for "auditorica" honors, is
some more young blood, but he is old
in the sin of knowing how to work and
doing things as they should be done.
He was born in Harmar April 14th,
1868, the second son of Judge and
Mrs. L. W. Chamberlain. He recelv-
ed a good common school education
and added further to lit by course in
the academy of Marietta College,
Mr.. Chamberlain mas wide exper-
ience in work of detail where the exer-
else of care and accuracy were more
demanded than expected and his du
ties never exceeded his ability to full
fill them. He is good fellow-yes,
and far more than that, he Is a man
wl.o will well fill the shoes of his
worthy predecessor, Mr.. Patterson, and
that is saying a great deal.
Mr.. Chamberlain has a large ac-
quaintance and he will command a
large vote.
George w. Bonnel is another favor
ite and favored son, he having receiv-
ed the nomination for Recorder after
pretty contest, lasting through nine
ballots. Mr.. bonnell first saw light in
the short days which the hills of Mon
roe county offer. He was born at
Brownsville, March 31st, 1874, and re-
mained there until at the age of II
years he enlisted in the service and re-
mained a soldier until the close of the
rebenon. He was a member of Co. l.
J. o. V. |. Returning home he en-
gagged in farming and kept store, and
has been a successful man. Since rs
he has been living in Grandvlew town
ship and has been a retail merchant
and dealer in tobacco. He has been a
-.epublican of the strongest type, and
splendid worker in the party. Bon
nell las always been man to tie to
and he'll make a g0od officer to help
populate and popularlze the new Court
House,
Daniel R. Shaw, a single Republican
in family brotherhood of five, is the
nominee for Commissioner. The
name, Dan Shaw, has in it-because OF
its owner-.the ring of the genuine
man of the people A fair sprinkle oI
Scotch blood puts into his veins g
quality which everybody recognizes is
a desirable one in a man.
Mr.. Shaw is a ,armer and a man o
affairs generally, and is strictly up tC
the standard of the good community
whence he halls. Re enjoyed in hi:
canvass for Commissioner the happl

friends, wLo looK upon him as mar

the best service as a memberS of the
Board of County Commissioners. Mr.
Shaw will help roll up the votes. He
is built that way.
George w. Smith, of Aurelius, can
didate for Infrmary Director, is one
of the old guard. He was soldier in
the War of the Rebellion, and bore
himself with honor and distinction
having borne the colors of the Union
through many an important engage.
ment George Smith did his duty, and
his share in the days of 81, and he will
do it again in this campaign and in
the administration of the Office tc
which he will surely be elected by a
rather particular people.
More young blood in the person OF
DR.. John Mcclure was encouraged in
