Emmett L. Scott, candidate for corr
ner on the republican ticket Is one OF
the best known and most widely ac-
quainted men in Wapello county. For
the past seven years Mr.. Scott has re-
sided in Ottumwa. Previous to that
time he resided at Hedrick and
throughout the northern part of the
county he has many warm personal
friends, who have known him from his
boyhood up.
During his residence here Mr.. Scott
has been engaged in the undertaking
business. Because Of his profession
Mr.. Scott is unusually we'll equipped
for the duties of the Office for which
he is an aspirant. AS he himself put
it, in speaking to the representative OF
the Courier yesterday, ut is right in
my line. Some people seem to think"
said Mr.. Scott, "that it would save ex-
penses for the county to have a physi-
clan for coroner. This however, is a
fallacy, as 1t has always been the GUS
tom of coroners in this county, when
ever professional services were needed
to call in an outside physician, no mat
ter whether they themselves were ply
sicians or not"
Throughout this campaign Mr.. Scott
has made an active and faithful can
vass and has materially increased his
acquaintance, which as above stated
was already very large.
Mr.. Scott has always been repub-
lican and has supported the candidates
of the republican ticket. He is Of the
calibre known as dyed in the WOOL
republicans. However, he has never
carried his party affiliation and affec-
ton to the extent Of offensive partisan.
ship.
The candidate for coroner is well
known among fraternal and lodge cir
cles being a member in good standing
of number of local orders. Among
these are the following: Ottun1wa
lodge No. BAT, B. P. o. Elks; Wapello
lodge No. ~, K. of P; Woodland camp
No. 103 M. w. A.; and Ottumwa Home
stead No. 407, B. of A. Y.
! Mr.. Scott has never held an Office Of
any description before nor has he ever
been a candidate for one. This is The
first time that he has ever asked the
voters of Wapello county for their suf-
ferage.
He is a man with considerable per
sonal magnetism, rather of the bale
fellow well met" type and during his
residence In Ottumwa has made many
personal friends, who are working hard
to secure his election at the polls Nov.
ember 6. Mr.. Scott is favored with
the friendship of many Of the demo.
cratic residents of Highland and Com.
petine townships and it is confidently
expected that large complimentary
vote will be polled for him N these two
communities.
