AFTER THE ELECTION.

The selection Of officers for the
county has been made, and the ex-
element of the campaign is now
over. Those who were elected have
received their certificates OF elect
ion, and are happy,
The county is to be congratulaH
ted on having secured the services
of good men, and who are they?
First, the Judge of the County,
j. Russell Pryor, who was born in
Marion County and has lived here
nearly all his life. He served as
circuit court clerk from 1890 to
1894, and we believe, will give the
County good and faithful service,
Second, the Sheriff, Francis M.
Mccullough, having just closed an
excellent record, will, we are sure,
keep up his record as very elfici'
ent officer.
Third, County Trustee Rufus J.
Brown, who served one term as
Sheriff of the County and also as
member OF the County Court, and
from his general reputation for
business energy the county's in
terest's are safe in his hands.
Fourth, the Circuit Court Clerk,
L. r. Layne, who knows how to
work, and has had to all his life,
We are assured and believe he
will strive to fulfill his duties
properly aud acceptably,
Fifth, James NJ Price, Jr., who
succeeds to the office of County
Court Clerk. He has made rep
utatiOn for himself as hustler
aud being active and energetic
may be relied upon,
Sixth, the Register of Deeds, S
G. Byrne, who is reelected, ant
has made reputation as being on
of the most efficient Registers tn,
County has ever had. His Office j
pattern o! neatness and his cleo
ton lea, es. the office in very SAT
hands.
This, then is the list of officer
elected by the people of Mario
County OF course they are ex
pected to do their duty, but the re
sponsibility of the people does no
end with their election. Civ
them your hearty support as cit
zens of the county, and the who
county will be the gamer.
