The name OF George w. Sterner
IS announced this week as candi-
d a e for County Commissioner
Three years ago he was elected to
that office under rather adverse cir
cumstances He received a large
vote at the primary election, and
claims that he should have gone on
the regular democratic ticket, but
under legal construction of the rule
providing for one commissioner
from the south side, Mr.. Sterner
was thrown off the ticket, it appear
ing that he had the minority vote
by very few. The result W s
that Mr.. Sterner's friends put forth
their efforts and he was elected, de-
feating t h republican candidate.
He has been a member of the exec
utive committee of the State associa-
ton of County Commissioners for
the past three years. AS commits
sioner he has performed his duties
faithfully and conscientiously and if
he has made mistakes they have not
been intentional ones. H asks
now the usual favor of a second term.

There is. is S known, abundant
material in the Club, and it will all
be impressed into service for this
occasion. 1t is just possible that
the boys will be able 20 spring a
surprise on their many friends in a
few days. A letter has been writ
ten to Hughev Dougherty, the cele-
brated Minstrel star, and if there is
any way to get him, he will be Sc
cured. Mr.. Dougherty has retired
from the stage, and some of the club
members are of the opinion that the
veteran of minstreisy will not be ad-
verse to appearing in the forthcom-
ing entertainment.

as candidate for reelection to the
Office of Register and Recorder. In
a card which we published last
week he frankly states that he is
not running because his friends all
over the county are demanding it,
but because he wants the office.
This is sensible. Everybody knows
nowadays that candidates run for
office because they want the money
there is in it, and not merely to
crafty the demands of their friends.
Mr.. Rutter has made a very ,effici-
ent official.
