VOTE IT STRAIGHT.

| IVlu III NJ lnluul
In our issue of October 19, we
gave an exhaustive recount Of the
republican candidates for congress
sional and state Offices. The can
didates on the republican state and
county ticket are all men with
whom there is associated ability and
the best of reputation-their indi-
vidual qualifications and integrity
is unquestioned. AS private citi-
zens they have gained among their
fellow men with whom they have
had dealings and been associated
enviable reputation for straight
dealing and capacity. These facts
lead Us to make the assertion that
the candidates that the republican
party are offering to the electors
of this state and county are men
to whom it will be we'll for us to
entrust the reins of government.
They are pledged to wise economy
and strict accounting. The voter
who votes the straight republican
ticket this fall-just an X in
square under the word republican
will make no mistake. The
election this year will be Tuesday,
Nov. 6, and every citizen should
bear this in mind Tuesday, Nov,
6-and arrange his affairs SO as to
cast his vote. The election pre-
cincts in this county have been in
creased in number to double that
two years ago, SO there are but few
who have not convenient polling
places this fall-c consult Notice Of
Election in another column in
this issue and locate your voting
place and go and vote on Tuesday,
Nov. 6. and by all means vote the
straight republicans ticket. The
party stands for good things and
it is offering you good men for Of
fee. In nation, state and county
the republican party in the past
have managed the affairs off 4 gov
ernment well; the nation has
givenyou protection and privi-
leges such as is enjoyed by no
other people in the world; the state
is providing you with excellent
charitable and educational intitu-
tions and conservative and equi-
table administration; the county is
giving you your moneys worth
even in the heat of party campaign
the official integrity of a Mclean
county republican Office holder
was never successfully assailed.
This year the county nominees
were selected at the primaries in
JuAe and are of the choosing of
the people and they are entitled to
and should receive the full party
support.
Henry D. Mathews of Wiprud,
John Schlenker of Goodrich, are
Legislative candidates, and are men
of sturdy integrity and good judg-
ment, which are perquisities found
only in good Legislators. That
they will give a good accounting
of themselves he have every rea-
son to believe.
For sheriff the republican voters
are offered the name of John A.
Beck of McClusky. Mr.. Beck fol-
lowed ranching in the east end of
the county until that business was
displaced by the plow and the
farmer. He has always been an
enthusiastic supporter Of Law and
order and the ridding Of the coun-
ty of the organized band Of horse
thieves who operated in this county
for many years is due great deal
to his individual efforts. That hs
will make good as sheriff we have
every reason to believe. This pa
per opposed the selection of Mr..
Beck at the primaries, but he was
the choice Of the people and is
now the party's candidate and we
conscientiously believe the repub-
lican voters made no mistake when
they selected Mr.. Beck as their
no,1;do<o for cbor;& In 80 ooa1
