Republican Local Ticket.

HepuDuculi LOcal l1ckeI.
The convention held at Ellsworth
last Monday for the purpose of nomi-
mating Republican local ticket, per-
formed the duty assigned it in what
we trust will prove highly satisfac-
tory manner
Harry Park, one Of the stirring
business men Of Spring Valley, was
nominated for member of Assembly.
We understand that Mr. Park is a
native of Pierce county, and he is
youehed for as being imposed Of the
kind OF material of which the best as
semblymen are constituted. He is
wide awake, energetic fellow, and as
member of the popular branch of
the legislature will show that this as
sembly district is still on deck, and
fully in line with the Republican
cause.
Ole Hohle of Martell, the present
Incumbent, was nominated for reelec-
tion to the Office Of county clerk. Mr..
Hohle is now serving his first term
in this position. and is proving one of
the best clerks the county has ever
had
Ole L. Bergseng of the town of Riv-
er Falls, who is now acceptably sery-
ing his first term as County Treasur-
err, was named for second term, for
which he is well fitted.
Charles e. Glass of the city Of River
Falls proved winner in the
race for the nomination for the
Office Of Sheriff. Mr.. Glass is a native
of the county, and is well and fayora-
bly, known to our people as one who is
in every way competent 10 fill the re-
sponsible position for which he has
been named. He prosecuted his cam
vas with Characteristic vigor, and has
hosts of friends who congratulate him
upon his success. He is an. efficient
deputy sheriff under the present adj
ministration, and possesses in a high
degree the qualities which combine
to make an excellent sheriff.
The nomination of John S. Copley
of Clifton, for Coroner, seems to have
been in accordance with a fixed rule
that Mr.. Copley should fill this office.
At any rate John is all right, and
would grace places higher up on the
ticket.
L. G. Spinney Of Ellsworth for clerk
of the Circuit Court, was a renomina-
tion eminently fit to be made, and a
we'll merited recognition of that gen.
tleman's efficiency as public official.
Ever affable and obliging, as well as
competent, he deservedly ranks high
| in the scale OF popularity.
| Albert Cum hacker Of Ellsworth,
the nominee for District Attorney,
is the present incumbent, and the
fact that he has already filed this po-
sition for several terms attests to his
ability, and the confidence reposed in
him by his constituency.
Warren w. Walsingham of the vii
lage of Maiden Rock, who is now serv-
ing his second term as Register of
Deeds, was nominated for third
term. Mr.. Walsingham has an estab-
lished reputation for promptness and
efficiency in the discharge Of his Off
cial duties, and his popularity is at
tested by his endorsement for third
term.
B. r. Eaton OF River Falls, was
again nominated for the office Of
| County Surveyor He has filed this
| position for a number of terms, and
this nomination for another term is
well deserved tribute to faithful
and com petent official.
A. J. Ingli of Union, the present
efficient County Superintendent of
Schools, was nominated for re-elec-
tion. During Mr.. Ingli's present
term of Office he has evinced an inter
est in the Advancement Of the cause
of education in our common schools
which shows him to possess pro-
gressive spirit and that he is keeping
pace with the continually increasing
sentiment for a higher educational
standard.
So far as the voters of Pierce coun-
ty are concerned this completes the
Republican ticket for 1900, and it is
ticket which from President down
to the end has the cordial endorse
ment of the JOURNAL as a ticket
representing those principles whose
ascendancy will best subserve the in
terests of the Nation, State and
