The County Ticket.

/ Assent 1yman d. 5. Slade, who is
the Republican nominee for Assembly
man, is a man so thoroughly known in
the county that it becomes unnecessary
for his friends to carry on campaign
in his behalf. He has already served
his county in the capacity for which
he has been nominated by the unan1-
nous voice of the Republicans of the
county, and has so conducted himself IN
the discharge of the duties connected
Herewith that there is no opportunity
for criticism or objection. Assembly
man S1ade took with him to the State
Legislature, when first elected by the
people of the county to represent them
there, an Integrity of character and
ripeness Of judgment that had made
him an esteemed private citizen long
before they brought him into pron1i-
hence as public man. After two
years of experience he is morethan ever
able to successfully and satisfactorily
meet the responsibilities of his posi-
ton. His record as an Assemblyman
and the general popularity of Mr..
Slade should assure his reelection.
Republicans were again fortunate
when they nominated Will Crosby for
County Clerk. Will is one of the home
products of Kenosha county, and is
we11Iknown, and as we'll liked, from one
end of the county to the other. He is
not the kind to thrust himself into the
public eye, and it was surprise to
many who knew him best when it be-
came known that he had accepted the
nomination two years ago for the posi-
ton he now holds. The success of his
candidacy, however, soon proved the
wisdom of the party in making Will
their nominee. He was elected and
since that time has devoted himself
with ability and untiring energy to the
duties of his Office. He has been a
most careful, constant and painstaking
official The duties of the County
Clerk are frequently intricate and per-
picking, but the present incumbent OF
the Office has performed them in a
manner to give general satisfaction.
The Discrimination among the people
of the county to frequent changes IN
the office of Clerk will no doubt result
in the continuation of Mr.. Crosby in
this office for some time to. come.
Another familiar name on the Re-
publican county ticket is that of P. c..
Torrey. Mr.. Torrey is the present
Register of Deeds and his efficient
services have lead the Republicans to
make him their nominee for that Of
fee. Mr.. Torrey was not elected to
the office, but was appointed to fill the
ceased. He is a representative Keno
sha county citizen; representative of
the refinement, intelligence and integ-
rity of the county. There is no man
in the county better qualified to fill the
office which he has SO we'll filled and
none who deserves it more If there is
anything of reward connected with a
position that brings with it so much
hard work and so constant attention.
Mr.. Torrey is one of the strongest Re-
pub1icans in the county, but notwith-
standing this fact he counts his friends
among men of all political casts and
could probably be elected to office on.
any political ticket.
J. B. Ma1oney is the Republican
nominee for Clerk of the Court. The
name of Mr.. Ma1oney speaks for itself.
Mr.. Ma1oney is widely known through
out the county, his name having first
become familiar to the people of the
county as the Superintendent of the
Schools of the county, in which posi-
ton he served with distinction and
made himself esteemed as a man of
marked ability. From that position he
was elected to the position he has
since held, and to which he has again
been nominated by an appreciative
party. John is hai1-fe11ow-we11-m
liked by all who know him, and full of
hustle and enterprise. His reelection
is a foregone conclusion.
A. E. Buckmaster, the nominee on
the Republican ticket for the district
attorneyship, and the present incum-
bent of that office, was first elected to
the office in 1894, succeeding himself in
go and '99. He is known to almost
every man in the county and with his
legal education and experience, should
be able to perform the duties Of his
office as they should be performed.
William Griffith, the Republican
nominee for County Superintendent
of Schools, has already been the county
superintendent for number of years
and has given the county splendid
service in that capacity. He is an
educator of ability and makes his pro-
