transacted. With Mr.. Johnson it has
been different. After the last cleo
ton he at once secured the Office and
settled down to his work, and in sea-
son and out of season the county
treasurer is always to be found. He
has made a most efficient and careful
officer, is a first-class citizen and in
every way qualified to fill the Office
to which there is no question of his
reelection.
For CORONER.
DR.. !. A. Braden is our candidate
for Coroner. Is there any n in
Morgan County that don't know DR..
Braden? II so, he has missed an
opportunity. He is a doctor. a far
mer, and one of the most industrious
citizens that the southwest part of the
county can scratch up. He is a fine
physician and can Cure any disease
that Is durable. However, if he can't
cure a case. no one is better qualified
to "'sit' on the body than DR.. ]. A.
Braden.
For SURVEYOR.
w. X. Stevenson, u candidate
for Surveyor, has long been counted
as one of the most energetic workers
in the party. He has always been
ready and willing at any and all times
to work for the Republican ticket.
Now that he is a candidate for an
Office that he has the ability to fill,
and will prove in every way satisiac-
tory, his election is already assured.

( for Judge Of the First District. is &

business in the northwest part of the
county. and gets his largest vote from
the precincts where he is best known.
His reelection is already conceded
by Republicans and Democrats alike,
and there is nc question but what
Circuit Clerk Thomas will occupy his
present quarters four years longer.
For COUNTY COLLECTOR.
Some of our people did not know
Peter !. Siegel before the present can,
paign, but we all know him now, and
the more we know him the better we
like him. Pete Siegle has never been
a candidate for office hat we know
of. but for a hard. earnest worker for
the Republican ticket, in each and
every campaign, he has few equals.
When the farmers started a little bank
up at Syracuse, in looking around for
a man with the ability, and at the
same time a man in whom they had
every confidence, to take charge,
their choice at once fell on Peter J..
Slegel, our candidate for Collector.
What better recommendation can be
asked? He is one of our German cit
liens, is in every way qualified, and
when the votes are cast on the 9Th of
November, Pete Siegel will be our
Collector by a large majority.
FoR SHERIFF.
Our present Sheriff and candidate
for reelection, Chas. +. Wilson. is
certainly worthy of every voters con-
sideration, as a man and an officer.
He has made one of the best sheriffs
this county has cver had, and comes
before the people with every assur-
ance of being continued in Office.
No officer looks after the business of
his Office in a more thorough manner
than he does, and yet he goes about
it in such a quiet manner that a per-
son would never figure on his being
an officer unless he does something
that requires the sheriff's attention,
then he soon finds out who is sheriff.
Charlie Wilson has nothing to fear at
the coming election. for there is no
question of his reelection.
FoR PRosEcUTiNG ATTORNEY.
W. i. S. Agee, the present Prose-
cutting Attorney and candidate for re-
election, certainly comes before the
people with a record that any one
ought to be proud of, and which is
sure to command the best Considera-
ton of all voters on election day.
Attorney Agee can show where he has
saved over $500 in criminal costs to
our taxpayers and turned in more
cash to the county treasurer than has
been done before in years. This is
because he Is a good LAWYER, having
been in constant practice for twenty
years, and knows how and when to
protect the interests of the county.
With such a record, the voters of this
county will not turn Attorney Agee
down on the 9th OF next month. He
ought to be reelected, and will be.
OUR PROBATE JUDGE.
Our present Probate Judgc, II. f..
Neville, certainly don't need much
of an introduction to the people Of
this county. About every one, ex.
r cept those whose estates he has adj.
r ministercd on, knows Judge Neville
There never has been a man in thi.
} county holding the Office OF probat,
Judge who is better qualified for tn,
position than he is. A sober, indus
,rlous, good citizen, a splendid law,
