oevSTy COMMISSIONERS

Among the most important position
occupied by a county official is that
of commissioner The Republican
party has two very excellent candidates
in the feId-W. w. Paddock from the
second district and B. o. Killmer
from the fourth district. These gen.
tlemen have served the people In the
capacity Of commissioner and they
have been faithful to their duties.
Theg are conservative, possess sound
business judgment. scan carefully all
biHs that come before the county
board and if any of doubtful character
or If exorbitant claims showed up
they were the first to object to their
alioWaaoe. In this way Messrs.
Paddock and KilImer have protected
the taxpayers.
Messrs. Paddock and Kiilmer are
deserving of reelection.

NECESSITY OF VOTING THE RE
PUBLICAN TICKET.

Election day is drawing near and
the contest to be decided on Nov. 4, is
one Of the most important that has
occurred in an off year since the days
of 1866.
With the exception of the silver
are the same as in 1895, 1898. and
1900. The Democratic party advocates
the same policy as it did four years
ago and two years ago. There is every
reason why the Republicans should
be as united now as they were in
those years. There is every reason
why the Republican party should sbe
successful The election of Demo-
cratic congress would be deplorable.
A Democratic majority in congress
would tie the hands of President
Roosevelt. would cripple administrs-
tive wuk in the Philippines, would
preveneeeciprocity with Cuba. would
disturb prosperity and check invest
ment
Democratic success at the polls
would be in large measure rebuke
to President Roosevelt, would be &C
cepted as warning .of evil by the
men WAC move industry and promote
enterprises.
Democratic success would mean a
waning of confidence, withdrawal
of capital from an unlimited number
of channels, create distrust, bring
hardship upon the laborer and depres-
sion OF business.
Men who supported Mckinley in
1895 and who voted approval OF Re-
publican policies in 1898 and 1900 can
not afford TO vote for reversal of these
policies On Nov. 4. No Republican.
looking forward to the nomination of
Roosevelt in 1904. should hang back

RxassRLHOANS WILL NOT BE
FOOLED.

1t should be borne in mind by Re-
pusiiesns that nothing can be gained
by voting for so-called independent
candidate for state senator. While
officially Mr.. Comstock is on the bal
lot as an independent he is in SYM
pathy with the Democratic party and
its principles. His candidacy is not
due to any great public clamor. 1t is
true ahat Mr.. Comstock's petition was
signed by several hundred voters, but
every one knows how easily it is to
proczre SIGNATURES to document of
that character. Mr.. Comstock was
given an opportunity to be nominated
for state senator by the Democrats at
the late primary election, but he
would not allow his name to go before
his party at that time. Immediately
following the primary election Mr..
Comstock expressed a willingness to
stand for the state senatorship. His
Democratic supporters are now pro-
claiming abroad that Republican in
iuences caused him to step into the
field.
Republicans are not going to be
fooled into believing any such baider-
dash as that for the great reason that
the party is united in its support Of
Mr.. Adolpn o. Eberhart. the regular
nominee who was not afraid to de-
clare his colors prior to the primary
election and who stands squarely for
the principles of the Republican
party.
Mr.. Eberhart has the ability and
experience to ably represent Blue
Earth county in the state senate and
he is certain of election.
No extended euiogy of Mr.. Eberhsrt
is accessory. The people know
him to be q gentleman of strong char
acters. forcefui speaker. of correct
PRINCIPLES, and who stands high In
this commaaitv.
Il is fact. sbundantly proven in
party history. that when a candidate
ooniAsres himself go much stronger
than his party rs to get along with

grief at the polls The only possible
advantage Of RAINING Independent lies

HEREFORD AND SHORTHORN
BREEDERS TO JOIN FORCES
AZ. STOITN CITY.

y L SlOIA I'll L,
Probably the greatest sale of pure
bred cattle that has ever been held
in the northwest, will be held at
Sioux City, Iowa, the first week in
November. IS of the most prominent
Hereford and Shorthorn breeders in
the United States have entered into
a combination to sell at public auc-
ton, IFS head of registered Here
ford and ShortiIorn cattle The
Shorthorn breeders viii sell 70 head
on Thursday, November 9th, among
which are several imported animals.
There are 90 head of pure Scotch cat
tie of hiGhcct merit. One of the
breeders in crested, speaking of this
lot says: NO better lot will be of
feroJi for sale this season." The re-
maiudcr of the Shorthorns are high
class Iattle, most Of them with sew
&c! Scotch tops 60 head of the
S,lorChorns to be sold are cows and
heifers, either with calves at side,
or safe in calf, and 10 bulls.
The consignors are c. S. Barclay &
hOO-As ". L AFICtACIo, ". -. DlSlCG N
Son, Brown, Randolph Bros. & Igo,
all of Iowa.
The Hereford breeders are selling
108 head on Friday and Saturday,
November 18th and Sth. The offering
consists of so cows and heifers, most
of which are in calf or have calves
at side, and % bulls of serviceable
ages. AS the breeders who are sell
ing these Hereford cattle are among
the most prominent in the country
and have reputation for breeding
high-class cattle, they can be trusted
to send a good useful lot of cattle.
The parties contributing Herefords
to this sale are: e j. Elliott, James
Fenton G. Son, r. C.. Brown, Carl B.
Stow, of Iowa; The Stanton Breeding
Farm Co., of Nebraska; C. A. Stan
nard, of Kansas; Gudge1l & Simpson,
Scott e. March, G. G. Comstock e. Son,
of Missouri.
1t should be a source of satisfac-
ton to the farmers and stock grow
ers of the northwest to see two of
the leading breeds of cattle join
hands in making sale at Sioux City,
especially where breeders of such
prominence as the consignors to this
sale, are interested in it. The dis
tribution of these cattle in this coun-
try, will tend to vastly improve our
cattle, and it is to be hoped that sew
eral head of them will come to this
neighborhood. 1t will be worth a
trip to Sioux City, to the farmers
and stockmen of this vicinity to see
these cattle, whether they wish to
buy or not. One of the consignors
to the sale said, in speaking of their
offering, that they did not expect
fancy prices, but were DESTROYS of
inaugurating Hereford sales at Sioux
City, two or three times year, feel
ing sure that if the people in the
vicinity of Sioux City once became
familiar with the merits of the Here
ford breed, there would be no trouble
in disposing of a great many of their
cattle at this market each year. 9
