Of this city, the socialists.
The County Ticket.
On the county ticket the republican
nominee will have about as much real
opposition as is generally made along
strictly party lines. The entire coun-
ty ticket will be elected
Erastus Cornell heads the county
ticket for auditor. Mr.. Cornell has
made q most competent deputy I'M
der the present auditor, w. Nj. Melee
land, and is deserving of the office,
not alone for his competency, but be-
cause of his service in the minor po-
sition, which has as an only reward an
election to the more important Of
flee. Mr.. Cornell's opposition COM
prises Max Patton, on the democratic
ticket: c. NJ. Landon, for the socialists,
and NJ. IL. Green, of the prohibitionists'
ticket.
For treasurer j. p. Cooper is a cam
didate for reelection to his second
term. 1t has always been customary
to give county officers two terms pro-
viding they are efficient, and there will
never be any doubt as to Perry Coop
ers efficiency. He has made an eX-
cellent custodian of the countys funds,
and his careful management of the i'm
portant branch of taxes, which comes
under his supervision. has been bene-
fetal to the county treasury. Louis
Armbruster most worthy pioneer res
ident of the city and good democrat,
is one of Mr.. Cooper's opposing candi-
dates, having been named by the dem
ocrats The socialist candidate is A.

Newly
Harold c. Lounsberry is the repub-
lican nominee for clerk of the district
court, and it would not be surprising
If some of the democrats supported Mr..
Lounsberry. Not in years has an oc-
cupant of the clerks office been more
oblging and anxious to do anything in
his power to accommodate patrons of
the office than Harold Lounsberry and
his efficient deputy, Frank M. Haradon.
The contrast with some previous ad-
ministrations Is so marked as to have
caused most favorable comment from
many quarters. George Herman,
Fourth ward councilman. is the dem
ocratic nominee; Fred Fullmer the
candidate of the socialists, and How
ard Nyce for the prohibitionists.
There is probably no county office
in which true republicans will want to
see their candidate win than in the
contest for sheriff. An undignified
primary fight against c. S. Hutson,
made his victory before the primar-
les the cause for rejoicing on the part
of his friends. Now that Mr.. Hutson
was nominated he should have the
support of all republicans and be elect
ed to the second term Thomas NJ
Markey, j. C. Martin. and f. q. Hough-
ton are candidates of the democratic
socialist and prohibition parties, re-
spectively.
For recorder Mrs. Minnie e. Allen is
the republican nominee, having won III
a close fight in the primaries. Mrs.
Allen has been county stenographer
for several years, and no doubt VIII be
thoroughly competent to conduct the
affairs of the office to which she as
pires. Charles ]. Lander. candidate
because of the ticket had to be filed,
is the choice Of the democrats; DR..
Watson Roberts, the socialist, and
Miss Hattie Dickson, the prohibition
candidate.
L.
a remarkable victory in the primaries.
will have no trouble in landing the Of
flee for which he has been nominated.
Mr.. EgermaNer is a young man who
has been a hard worker in the party,
and has made many friends during
canvasses for municipal offices. The
high ideals that he has always advo-
Gated in public life will make him an
attorney who can be depended upon
to do what he believes Is right and
just at all times. His leading oppon-
ent, w. j. Ivory, the democratic can
didate, is another young attorney. Mr..
Ivory's chances, however, have been
embarrassed, it is believed, from the
fact that he voted at the republican
primary last spring. This is not pleas
ing to certain democratic voters, who
have voluntarily pledged their support
to the republican nominee. L. A. Han
son is the socialist nominee, and the
prohibitionists have no candidate.
For superintendent of schools Miss
Mary E. Hostetler is as sure of election
as tho she were seated for another
term. Miss Hostetler has made very
efficient, careful and popular superin-
LeIlu6ul dHu Is NY
and republicans alike Frank E. Run
ner is the democratic nominee; Mrs
Helen K. Brock the socialists, and
Richard Anderson, the nominee of the
prohibitionists.
For coroner DR.. H. H. Nichols says
that 1--WE are bound to have a good cor
oner, no matter whether the republic
cans or democrats win" DR.. Nichols
is seeking reelection, and has made a
first class coroner He has not had
the reputation Of holding inquests for
the fees, but rather only when circum-
stances justified legitimate investiga-
tion. His opposition is his own BUSH
ness partner, DR.. NJ u. Chesire, a pop
ular physician and fine fellow. Charles
Briefly is the nominee Of the social
lists, and S. II. Lands the prohibition
lists.
For surveyor William Bremner is as
good AIS elected. He has held the po-
sition over quarter of a century,
and opposition is never considered
seriously. r. Mcguire has been named
by the democrats; Alva C. Smith by
the socialists, and f. E. Bills by the
prohibitionists.
For supervisors the republicans have
three strong men in the persons Of
Elias Bueghley, of Liscomb township:
N. O. Keen, Of LeGrand township; and
