ognized business ability and unimpeach-
able integrity. Richly endowed with
hard headed common sense, he las
achieved marked success in the business
ventures with which he is Identified, and
has won for himself the respect and con-
hdence of all who now him. The inter-
ests of the constituency that he will rep
resent will have an able guardian.
Mr.. C. G. Smith of Golconda is well
known by the people of the county. He
came to his state nineteen years ago and
has lived in Humboldt county for the
past ten years. Seven years ago he re-
signed a position as locomotive engineer
on the Southern Pacific to accept a posi-
ton rendered him by the Glasgow and
Western Mining and Milling company OF
Colconda as engineer-in-charge and SUI
p~erintendent. which he has capably and
did not seek the nomination, but only
consented at the earnest solicitation Of
his friends to allow his name to go be-
fore the convention. If elected Mr.. Smith
will make a record in the assembly Of
which the people of this county will al
ways feel proud.
Peter Anker of Lovelock enjoys a wide
acquaintance throughout the county. He
knows the county's needs, and will his
TO- ovrar;opna ard b,,,fpocc oht1ifU will
prove a faithful champion of the inter-
ests committed to his keeping. The ticket
was greatly strengthened when Mr..
Ankle was nominated.
Mr.. John o'Kane, Republican nominee
for state senator, needs no introduction
to the voters of this county. Coming to
'his state in an early day, Mr.. O'Kane
has been for years prominently identi-
fed with the material interests of the
community in which he resided. His
business success marks him as a man
eminently qualified to hold any office
within the gift of the people and assures
his constituents an honest and business
like administration. No name on the Re-
publican ticket brings with it more in
dividual strength and assurance than
that of the justly popular and widely
known John OKane.
For shherif the convention did not re-
Quire a moment to unanimously decide
whom to place in nomination for that
important office. There was but one
name considered, which. of course, was
that of the present incumbent, Mr.. s. G..
Lamb. The record made by Sheriff Lam
the past two years makes his reelection
sure. The successful administration OF
his high office has won for him an envia-
BILE reputation as one of the most eff
cient officers of the state of Nevada. Al
ways fearless in the discharge of his
official duties and considerable of the
rights of the people, he has been a ter
servant of the ~law-abidlng citizens. We
commend him to the party and the peo-
pie as the best man for that office that
could be selected within the county. Mr..
Lambs record as a tax collector has been
almost phenomenal. he having collected
and turned into the county treasury more
money than any previous sheriff.
Everybody knows genial J. w. Guthrie.
nominee for the Office of county assessor.
rrA.t - ~,;lJ ~ r1 aI1otod 80 tho uoejtinp
he has filled with conspicuous ability for
a number of years is as certain as taxes.
The county's interests nave been faith
fully and conscientiously taken care of
by Mr.. Guthrie. His past record is a
sufficient guaranty of the faithful per-
Torrance of the duties pertaining to the
office to which he seeks reelection.
Mr.. W. l.. Wilkinson. Republican can
didate for county recorder, came to this
state seventeen years ago. settling In
Paradise valley. where he engaged In
ranching and mining. He spent six years
mining at Kennedy, but the greater part
of the time was spent in the northern
part of the county. During his residence
here Mr.. Wilkinson has been closely
identified with the interests Of the county
and has a very large personal acquaint-
ance. No one who knows the candidate
will for a moment question his ability TO
conduct the affairs of the recorders office
in an entirely acceptable manner and
should his friends see fit to honor him
he will prove a competent and capable
official.
The convention made a wise selection
when it nominated Mr.. A. C. Webb for
county clerk Mr.. Webb is well and
favorably known throughout Humboldt
county. having been a resident of Win
nemucca for a lumber of years. Mr..
Webb is highly qualified for the position
to which he aspires. having been a teach
