FOR REGISTER OF DEEDS.
j. J. Knight, a Good Man and an Eff
firiPnt Officer

John J. Knight, candidate for reg
lister Of deeds, has resided in Sher-
I man county for over twenty-five
years, and, therefore, is we'll known to
all our citizens. He has always been
loyal to the best interests Of Sher-
man county, an excellent citizen; and
his thrift and industry and his IN
impeaChable honesty certainly recon-
mend him to the voters of this cOun-
".
Mr. knight has served this county
for four years as register Of deeds, and
was nominated for the third time for
the same office without any sOlicita-
ton on his part Everyone speaks Of
Mr.. Knight as a man Of good habits,
Ob1g1ng to all both in his personal
and official relations, careful Of every
mans name, speaking i'll OF no one,
and as efficient and faithful register
Of deeds as Sherman county ever had.
All these things will be conceded by
even his political opponents.
Mr.. Knight came to this county
from Racine, Wis, in 1885, and To-
Gated on a homestead where his coun-
try home stands today, and which has
been his continuous residence until he
removed to GOOdland in December
1902, after being elected to Office for
the first time. He still holds his we'll
improved and valuable ranch in Sher-
manville township. Since his residence
in GOOdland he has been chosen three
serve on the board Of education, show
ing in very significant manner, their
appreciation Of Mr. Knight.
Mr. Knight has a very efficient as
sistant in the person Of his daughter,
Miss Myrtle Knight, a lady-like, ac-
complished, courteous and efficient de-
putty, in whose charge, in Mr.. Knights
absence on business, the work Of the
Office moves on like clock work. He
IS the democratic candidate be sure,
but he is everyOne's register Of deeds,
and is uniformity Obliging to all. As
TO the third term ObjectiOn-the nOmi-
nation having come unsought, the
work being well and satisfactorily
done, this cannot count for much.
The people want him, and, we believe,
viii re-elect him.

He said ne was entirely satisfied

about his affection, he realizes that IL

to ever leave the home again. He
hoped the boys who come down that
