JOHN r. CAREY.

The time is approaching when
the people OF the 34th Senatorial
District of Iowa will select a sue
cessor to the late Hon. L. Il Boil.
ter, who so long and abely repre-
scented the people in the Legisla-
ture of Iowa, and all admit that it
will require man of ability and
sound integrity to fill his place.
The people of the district, COM
posed of the counties of Crawford,
Harrison and Monona, after can
wasting the claims and qualitica.
tions OF the different men whose
names had been mentioned by the
democratic party of the district,
the convention that met in this
city, after due consideration, and
many ballots, selected
JOHN L. CAREY, of Crawford Co,
as the man to lead the democracy
to victory. The Denison Bulletin
says in part of him:
"The tides of wealth and iuflu-
ence cannot sway the voters of
Crawford county from him, and
did the voters of Harrison and
Monona but know Mr.. Carey as
his own people in Crawford know
him there would never be the
shadow of a doubt about his tri.
umphant election over any other
man that might be nominated.
He has held high and RESPONSE
BILE positions in his county, aud his
official acts have always been for
the best interest of the people.
His most popular opponent up
to the time Of the republican SEN
atorial convention was James S.
Dewell, of our city, and on per-
sonal grounds we were anxious for
his success, but for political reas-
ons we are glad he failed toreceiye
the nomination. He was the only
man who stood a ghost of chance
OF an election, and he out of the
way, the election of John T Carey
is assured.
Mr.. Carey makes no claim to
oratory, nor does he hope to sue
coed alone on political grounds,
but on higher and better reason,
that of serving the whole people,
and by honest effort, to promote
every interest of the people with
out regard to party. He is deci-
dedly one of the people-plaip,
honest, conservative and able, and
is Just such man is the people
OF this Senatorial District will de-
light to honor.
A vote for John 7. Carey is a
vote for the right mana vote for
the best interest of the people of
this district, as we'll as the great
State of Iowa.

FORTY ANNUAL
FAIR
Will Be a Record Breaker for
Attendance.

htt0uuduC0.
As has been the case for years
past, the great day at the Harri-
son County Fair has been the
third after the formal opeLing,
and today, Thursday, September
10Th, will be no exception, but in
stead, will undoubtedly show one
of the largest crowds assembled
on the grounds of the Agricultural
Society for many years.
Since early this morning. at an
hour when the "town folks" had
not yet finished their coffee, the
country people commenced to ar
rive and have been pouring
through the entrance gate in a
perfect stream, the volume never
diminishing since the first ticket
was sold.
While it is impossible to form
an estimate at this time with any
degree of correctness it is safe to
say today's attendance will exceed
last years big day by several hum
dred, provided the threatening
weather does not keep many of
the more timid ones from coming.
The completeness and beauty
of the display made in the Floral
Hall this year, has occasioned
hundreds of complimentary re-
marks. The poultry display pos
sesses the usual interest, chickens
of every variety from the tiny but
proud Bantam to the huge Brahma
are represented, as are ducks,
geese, turkeys, etc. The cattle,
swine, blooded horses, sheep, ETC.,
are up to the standard.
The following awards were made
in the horse classes this morning.
The balance of the colt classes
will be judged tomorrow.
