OUR CANDIDATES

OUR CANDIDATES.
Why We Support Them and
Why They Should Be Elected.
The time for election is near at
hand, and we feel it duty that
something should be said favorable
to the republican candidates for coun-
ty Offices because they support an adj
ministration that comedies with our
views. It is not intended, by any
thing that is said, to cast any insinu-
atoms, slurs or reflections upon the
candidates of the opposite ticket of
any character or degree. -, !
For authorship E: A. Tripp is
candidate for the third time and this
is much to his credit as an efficient
officer. Our opponents say three
terms is too long, but it is on record
where they have retained men in office
more than this time and would still
be holding Office if votes had not been
recorded against them. Mr.. Tripp
has always been found a most courte-
GUS and obliging officer. His books
always found in proper condition by
public examiners, what other requisite
can be desired7 Nothing! We must
have an auditor and Mr.. Tripp is a
desirable one therefore cast your vote
for him, no reason of regret can be
assigned for doing SO on previous oc-
casions and there will be none in the
future.
For Treasurer you have before you
J. H. Denton an old resident of this
county and farmer most highly es-
teemed by his neighbors. He has
been what is termed zone of the wheel
horses of the party" and never before
came before the people and party
whome he has served all of these
years. He has been successful in his
own affairs and possessing all of the
essential qualifications necessary for
properly conducting the business of
the office to which he aspires, there is
no valid reason why any man could
not conscientioualy cast his ballot for
j. III. Denton for treasurer,
For Register of Deeds, B. I. Trip
is worthy candidate. His Republic
canism is unquestionable. He has not
sought an Office before and his friends
pushed him forward this time and
they will see that he is installed in
the sunny side of the court house
nearest the Jail. He has long been a
resident ofthis county and bears q
spotless reputation, always upright in
his dealings, attentive to business re-
lations, and his character convinces
those. with whom he comes in contact
that he would make an excellent
officer. >>S.z ),
1 Il For Sheriff, Charles W, Slade, q
Adrian, has become the word among
republicans all over the county and
very frequently others are heard te
say, I'VE are going to vote for Charley
if we live until election day." He is
one of those men that are peculiarly
fitted for this Office He,is d man o1
mature judgement and when an en-
ergency demands will be found acting
for the best interests of those whom
he serves. He is just the man for a
sheriff.
! For Probate Judge; Charles M.
Cory has filled the Office for some
years and this is an Office that should
not be handed about. Voters should
remember that some day their pro-
perty ma y pass through the hands Of
the Probate Judge and if not proper
ly handled would create no end of
trouble for their poserity. Who would
want to place the handling of their
business where not certain of it's being
done properly. In Mr.. Cory not an
appeal has been taken from his deci-
sion. Of course he being an attorney
places him him in a position to pro-
perly attend the duties of the Office,
that's what's wanted by everyone.
For District Attorney, Charles NJ.
Crandall is perfectly fitted for the
place. He is fearless prosecutor of
the law, though always fully investi-
eating every infringement of the peo-
ple's rights before bringing the law !
into use and in this manner every ones
rights are preserved. He is fully /,
qualified to conduct all legal matters
in any phase without assistance, and
has been very successful in all of his h
cases before q court. Everyone should
realize that an able attorney is a des-
irable one for the position. |,
For Superintendent of Schools, L.
W. Abbott fills the bill in every parti-
,ular. Every citizen possesses great
pride in our schools and maintaining
] standard. In this candidate there
need be no fear for lowering of the|
