Republican County Ticket.

/ The republican county ticket
is gaining favor with the voters.
and there seems to be no cues
ton but what it will be elected
throughout. There are but three
contested places on the ticket,
those being for the offices of
treasurer, sheriff and district at
torney. So far as the treasury
ship goes there is absolutely no
question about Mr.. Froseth's
election. Mr. Walsh, the dem
ocratlc nomiee for district attor-
ney, is being doomed rather vi
gorously by some of his friends
and will undoubtedly poll big
vote, but will hardly be able to
oversome the big odds against
him. But on the sheriffship
matter there is no question
out what an energetic fight is be-
ing made to defeat Henry J. Con-
lin, the republican nominee.
Six years ago Mr.. Conlin was
slaughtered by members of his
own party: after he had fairly
won the nomination. This year
he had clear majority over
three other candidates who
were in the convention field, VIM
ming the nomination on the first
ballot. 1t seems that the conven-
ton felt that it was time to make
amends for the bad treatment
given Mr.. Conlin six years ago
Thedemocrats, with no other de-
sire than to create bad blood
among the republicans, refused
to nominate party man on their
ticket, but instead placed Ole
Johnson, the defeated republican
aspirant, at the head of their
ticket. Just why any republican
should fall into this trap laid by
the democrats of the county is
mystifying, and when election
rolls aroundit will likely be found
that Mr.. Conlin will be endorsed
by his party in the county. But
there is no Disgusting the fact
that there is fight on, and it is
the duty of every goodrepub lican
to stand by the head of the coun-
| ty ticket. Mr. Conlin is man
of very limited means-he is poor
of purse, and has no funds with
which to grease the campaign.
His claim to Office is that in every
way he is a respected and sub
stantial citizen, and as the repre-
sentative of Bayfield, on the coun-
ty ticket he is entitled to support
in Washburn, as he is pulling.
straight for the ticket in his own
town. All republicans owe their
loyal support to the entire tic
ket.
