Our Candidates.

Without intending to hurt
friend John McCabe's fine feel.
ings by too often referring to ou,
County Candidates, as he has ex.
pressed the opinion that he had
heard the same old rlea for many
years, we can only ask his pardon
for Introducing again the old sub
ject, and informing him and
others that the democracy and
peoples party have presented this
year q set of candidates worthy
the entire confidence OF every
voter in Harrison county.
HORACE McKINNY
as treasurer, has been tried and
has met the just expectations of
the tax payers of the county
always on hand, painstaking
and correct in business, accomo-
dating and courteous to visitors
who call upon him in his official
position. He is worthy second
term and will surely be elected.
JOHN L. SHELTON
for sheriff, is nomination that
reflects honor upon those who
placed him in nomination. He
has filled the position for the past
two years with entire satisfaction
to the public. Honest, faithful
and we'll qualified. His election
is only question of the size of his
majority. That he will continue
to hold the Office none doubt, and
his election will be an assurance
OF efficient service in the position.
W. T. ARTHUR
is the right man in the right
place as County Superintendent
of Schools. He has faithfully
and abely filled the position for
the past two years, and has given
satisfaction to the people. The
schools under his superintendency
have been advanced in interest
and efficiency and every consider
alton of the we'll being of our
schools demand that no change be
made this year in the superinten-
denoy but that W. T. Arthur be
fully endorsed at the polls for an
other term.
THEODORE ROACH
for Surveyor, is a good nomina-
ton, and his election is assured
by a handsome majority.
DIR. KIDDER
for Coroner, is satisfactory to the
people of Harrison county, and no
cause exists for his rejection at
the polls.
GEORGE REIFF
for Supervisor, is good nomina-
tion, and his thorough acquaint-
ance with the duties of the Office,
with long experience and extensive
acquaintance with the many peo-
pie of his district makes him q
desirable candidate for the posi-
tion, and If the people of the dis
trict consult their own interest,
they will send him over the home
stretch far in the lead of his COM
petitor. II is not a good time to
swap horses at this term.
J. Z. K1RKwooD
for Representative in the State
Legislature, is a very fortunate
one; he is identified with all the
interests of the taxpayers of the
county; man of liberal eduoa-
tion, long experience in business,
farmer from boyhood, and man
of energy and industry, not hav-
ing yet learned the meaning of the
word fail, and while making no
pretence to- oratory, he yet has
that more important qualitica-
tions of practical experience and
common sense which fits him for
the important position of repres-
entative in the legislature. Fully
identified with the people in bust
ness, friend of the farmer and
laboring MAN and of an age to
qualify him to fully comprehend
the exaulted position he is now
seeking at the hands Of the peo-
pie of Harrison county.
There is our ticket-every man
is worthy and we'll qualified for
the position for which they have
been nominated, and If elected, of
which there is no doubt, the bust
ness of the county will be in good
hands for another term at least.
