RAILROAD COMMISSIONER.

The Union takes pleasure in announcing the candidacy of
Attorney J. F. Schrader, Of this city, for the position of
railroad commissioner from this district, subject to the appro-
val of the republican county convention. Mr.. Schrader is al.
old timer here and one of our brightest and braniest men. He.
has been a lifelong republican and has served the people and
his party faithfully and we'll. During the last legislature
where he represented this county, his work was of material
benefit to this section, securing as he did a large increase in
appropriations for our School of Mines. When he was states
attorney in 1896 he succeeded in tnrning over to the county
something like 81 900 in cold cash on forfeitad bonds-a pretty
fine record.

ATTORNEY KNOX IND H TRUS6S.

ATTORNEY KNOX is wearied of this talk of beef trusts and
is ont with an invitation to those who are so trust ridden to
furnish him with good, sound evidence to the effect that such
a trust exists. When such evidence is presented, Attorney
Knox assures the public he will promptly settle the trust
matter.
The Attorney takes the proper position in the matter, but
it is one that is little understood or appreciated by a large.
number of well meaning persons. 1t is not his duty to trump
charges against anyone, but it is his duty to bring action
against violators of the law when he has sound and sensible
reasons for doing SO. What we may think about certain things
is not, in the eyes OF the law, sufficient to establish a cause for
successful ction, and it is as much the Attorneys duty to win
an action as it is TO bring it.
