Gilpin observer., 1901-10-10

they have good man to watch the treas
ury of the county.
For assessor a new man has been put
up, one who will never be found false to
his best friends, and man who can be
depended upon to always make fair
and equitable assessment, treating the
wealthiest class as equals. of the poor,
and not leaving the former go with a
nominal assessment and putting it on
the poor mans property, and then slam
ing it on the other man. In James V.
Thompson will be found man, always
ready to assist friends, but ever doing
his duty to his constituents: AS mayor
of Black Hawk for several years past, he
has proven himself capable, honest and
upright official, ever looking after his
duties to the best of his abilities, and
never neglecting such. He is we'll able
to look after the assessors Office in a
manner that will be more then appre-
ciated by the citizens of this county. He
is very popular, makes friends wherever
he goes, and is always pleasant and cour-
teous to ALL His nomination will add
much strength to the ticket, and is a
choice that we all may be proud of, and q
man for whom it is an honor to vote.
For County Judge James M. Seright
has been selected. Mr.. Seright is man
we'll versed in law, studious, able aud
just in all his dealings. He would never
be found to favor friend in his office
capacity, and if elected all those who
would have business before that court
would find that he would decide their
case as the law and evidence would merit
regardless of personal prejudice, if any
there should be. He has alwary proven
himself an able gentleman in his pro-
fession and,we are sure would an able and
uprightjudge. For some years he was
principal OF the Black Hawk schools and
proved a very efficient teacher. He
afterwards entered the practice OF law
which he has now been doing for the
past six years
For coroner, better selection could
not have been made than that of Ed. l..
Harris, the popular undertaken of this
city. Everyone in the county knows Mr..
Harris and have found him to be a
courteous an pleasant gentleman. He
is the right man for this Office and surely
will prove your choice.
The Surveyor Lonis G. Todd has been
renominated, although this office has not
much to do, yet in case something does
turn up, it is always we'll to have good
man to fall back on. Mr.. Todd formerly
resided in Apex, but now has an Office
in Central City. He is good man in
his business and his nomination will
prove acceptable to the voters.
For superintendent Of schools one and
all can feel it an honor to be able to give
a vote for such an able and pleasant
young lady as Miss Ida Kruse. 1t is
most pleasant task to sound few praises
for her, as she is indeed worthy Of all
that can be said in her favor and mere
too. Miss Kruse is the youngest daugh-
ter OF Hon. Fred Kruse Of this county.
She graduated from the Central City
high school in 1889, as valedictorian OF
her class, afterwards going east where
she spent several years at Vassar College.
She is very popular, always having a
kind word or pleasant smile to greet one
with, and once friend, always friend.
No selection could have been made that
will prove as agreeable as Miss Kruses
was, and if elected we can feel assured
that our schools are being looked after
by n most bright and capable person.
Nothing can please US more then to as
sure her OF our heartiest support.
