Amador ledger. (Jackson, Amador County, Calif.) 1875-19??, 1906-10-05
the county generally will find as the

manding presence, robust health and
great physical strength, he is just
the man for the chief executive
officer. He has high, conscientious
views OF official duty; will swerve
neither to the right nor left in the
discharge of duty, will not be
swayed by prejudice or partnership.
We believe he would make sheriff |
such as Amador county would be
proud of, scorning to stoop to i'm
proper methods, or to trespass upon |
the rights of the humblest citizen. |
should give him their
united support.
W. G. Snyder for district attorney.
is happy selection. He is native
Californian. At present he is en-
ployed by the Electric Light Com
pany of Suffer Greek. In addition
to a thorough general education, he
has had a good legal training, and
holds a supreme court license to
practice law in all the courts of the
state. That he Is a man of good
Judgment, OF fine intellectual ability,
and a fluent speaker, is admitted by
all. He has all the qualifications of
an able lawyer and prosecutor, and
besides a scrupulous regard for the
right. The office of prosecutor III
his hands will not be made the medi
UNI for the expression of spite or
prejudice. Wrong doors, and wrong
doors only, will be prosecuted. For
man of his intellectual calIber
short period of active work will place
him on par with shy prosecutor the
county has ever had. He is making a
careful canvass of the entire coun
ty. Voters, regardless of party, will
make no mistake in casting their bal
lots for William e. Snyder.
Charles Edwin Richards, candidate
for county clerk and auditor, is
native of Amador county, 80 years of
age. He is engaged in the merchan-
dising business in Suffer Creek. His
strict attention to business, and
straightforward honest dealings have
won for him a reputation and stand
ing of which any man might we'll he
proud. He is good scholar, and ex-
ceIlent penman, and a genial all
round man. He is a man of family.
a staunch republican in politics, he
has taken an active part in political
affairs. No better selection for
county clerk could have been made.
This is an Office of great Importance
politically. 1t has been in demo-
cratic hands continuously for twelve
years. The best interests of the COM
munity require change. Mr. Rich
ards will do all he possibly can to be
elected, and if republicans stand by
him as they should do, he will be
elected.
John Marchant, candidate for as
SCISSOR, has held that Office for eight
years. He is known to every voter in
the county. That he has endeavored
to discharge his official duties in pro-
perty valuation, must be admitted by
all. There is a strong Discrimination
to change in this office, where one
has shown fidelity and capability as
the present incumbent has done. We
see no reason why republicans should
not stand shoulder to sho udler for
his election as they have done here
tofore.
Fred e. jackson, nominee for
treasurer, has been a resident of
Jackson for four years, and prior to
that time lived in Suffer Creek.
For three years he was deputy sheriff
under L. K. Norman. He has been
in the service of Wells Fargo's detec-
tive department, and is looked upon
as one of the most faithful and eff
cient officers in the state. He was
shot in the leg while with the posse
hunting for the notorious bandits,
Evans and Sontag, some years ago.
and the effect of the injuries then
received will be with him through
life. He is A years old, and has
wife and family. Since the incor-
poration of Jackson, he has held the
office of city marshal and tax collect
or, and has proved dlligent and
faithful officer. He is we'll qualified
for the office OF treasurer, and has
host of friends throughout the
county, and should be elected by a
handsome majority.
William II. GreenhaIgh, for super :
intendent of schools, is one of the
most appropriate selections on the
ticket. He is native of jackson,
the son of pioneer parents, now pass
ed to rest. He is thiIty-three years
of age, and a school teacher by pro-
fession. He has taught in the public
schools in different parts of the
county, and in his methods of in
struction, and maintenance of dis
clpline, has given the utmost salts
faction to all concerned. He is now
the principal of the Jackson school
for the second term. He is a married
man, having wife and one child.
Several years back, on account of his
health, he was compelled to give up
teaching, and take some out door
occupation. Upon the re esta blish-
ment of his health, he resumed his
work of teaching accepting his pre-

among others, he is a candidate for
school superintendent. That he is
