in endorsing enthusiastically the can
didacy of Hon. c. NJ. Cole of this city
voices the sentiment of a very large
majority of democrats and populists
of this county on the question of a

Mr.. Cole is a man of fine ability,
good education and a strong vigorous
personality. While he is democrat
he has always been fusion democrat
acting with the populists in county,
district and state matters. He has
we'll defined opinions on the public
questions of the day-has the courage
of his convictions and his convictions
are pretty generally on the RICH side
of all the great questions that are up
before the people for solution. The
Herald believes Mr.. Cole will make an
ideal candidate, one on whom the
democrats and populistS of the district
can unite with honor to themselves
and faithfulness to their party prin-
ciples and party organization. The
Herald knows quite we'll there are
many other able men who might be
nominated, and we would not disparage
any one of them in the least-and do
not do so when we say we believe Mr..
Cole at the present time to be
the most available. We should there
for like to see him nominated and
elected. And he certainly will be
elected If he receives the endorsement
of both parties at Beloit.
