Ia reputation as a fearless officer. The
same Is true OF John Knight, who.
as sheriff for two terms. and as Re-
publican county chairman, has good
record in Office and for loyal Republi-
canism that is above reproach. His
! friends know where to find him po-
litically at all times. Mr.. Longcor
| has made n good night policeman,
and through trying time OF accusa-
tlon bore himself in n dlgnified man
ner. and was sustained by his friends
/ He Is a man who has worked his way
up with very little assistance, and
under adverse circumstances. There
are citizens who have objections to
all three OF these candidates, and
who will reserve the right to bring
out still another candidate after the
primaries are held. but this applies
TO some of the other candidates now
before people.
Candidates for Aldermen.
In the first ward VIM. Waldo is
up for nomination. without opposi-
tion. He is an old and honored cit
izen who was once elected county
Judge. but, after seeing what he was
up against, resigned and was sue
coeded by Hon. 4. l.. Davidson, APP
pointed by Governor Pennoyer. He
has the time and ability to attend to
the duties of alderman. and would do
Il well.
In the FIRST ward two flrst-class
business men are after the nomina-
tion. Hon. A. n. Gilbert and Col. ].
l.. stockton. Mr., Gilbert was In the
legislature several times, was post
master two terms. and superlntend-
ent of the state prison under the
Lord administration. serving with
credit to himself and friends In each
position. He has made himself In
dependent In worldly goods, and has
tho time and ability TO serve the city
well. and he has the inclination. Col.
Stockton has made success OF his
business, has purchased n beautiful
home near the state house, and is a
wlde-awake citizen. As mayor OF In
dependence he nut that city on a
cash basis by floating a popular loan,
Ho has the courage OF his convic-
tlons. and has expressed himself un-
Quallhedly for public improvements
OF a substantial and permanent char
acter. stockton will be found to be
figuring closely In the interest of the
city on all occasions. and would
make more than an average city
father.
In the third and fourth wards
there are no opposing Candidates,
Gideon stols and Abe Frazier run
ming by common consent as the best
men that can be found, Both are
sterling business men, who are pub
lio-spirited aud progressive, aud care
ful and conscientious In all their re-
latlons with the public. II the city
can get the time and services OF men
OF their charater and ability Il
should always avail itself OF the OPP
portunity to secure them.
In the nfth ward Joe Smith. OF the
Capital Improvement Company and
~. +, Goode. the auetloneer, are COM
petlng candidates. Both are FIRST
class men. who have the good OF the
city at heart. who are favorable TO
improvement. and who would look
closely after the interests OF the city
on all occasions. They would see TO
II that the money paid by the people
OF that ward would leak back into IL
In the form OF improvements. and
the chances are that they would get
more for the ward than les share.
but that ward could stand Il. and
either one of them viii make good
aldermaQ.
In the sixth ward Mr.. Churehnl.
who held over on a tie vote last year,
is the Republican candidate for the
short term. while VIM. Lansing Is
the Democratic or Independent candl-
date for the same place, hence there
