Scientists are again on the trail OF

certain marks were found On block
OF sandstone near WarrnanbOol, In
Australia. which were thought to be
the imprints of the footsteps of pre-

was ridiculed; but plaster cast was
sent to Germany, and the inevitable
German savant went out to investi-
gate the matter. He now reports that,
in his opinion, they were genuine hid

has BROUGHT him back into the fold.
The death knell of solid democratic
German vote has been struck in this
county, and we believe it to be but
a matter of a few years before the
German townships are the banner
republican townships Of the county.
For our part we welcome them. they
are splendid citizens and every one of
them ought to follow the footsteps
of Mr.. Schultz and be a good republi-
can.
AS matter of fact it will be good
business for the people to elect every
one-Maynard, Carey, Woolston,
Sweet and Schultz. We need radi-
cal change in our county government;
less of slip-shod favoritism and
more of good horse sense and ability.
We need just such a board as the
election of the republican nominees
would provide.

would bring to the board a practical
knowledge of brigdes and

possibly thousands of dol
lars every year. just think of it. the
people have the opportunity to secure
the services of a bridge expert for
almost nothing. Any corporation would
jump at the chance. We cannot
think that the people will neglect
such an opportunity.
The bridge letting is always puz-
zle. To the average man it is all
Greek, but to Herman Schultz it is
an open book. He would know just
what the specifications should be, and
what is more, later on. he would
know exactly whether the specifica-
tions had been lived up to. We hon
estly believe that in his three years
term, Herman Schultz would save the
county three times his salary and
would be able to provide the county
with the best possible bridges. Sim

SUPERVISOR TICKET,
Five Splendid Men Presented
by Republicans.
ALL SHOULD BE ELECTED.
Would Make an Ideal. Money-saving.
Fair Dealing Board for Crawford
County.

There has been too much of the
feeling that any man was good enough
for supervisor. In truth these posi-
tions are the most important that the
electors have to fill in the county
government. Harrison county had an
illustration of what corrupt board
could do. Many counties, including
Crawford have seen how much loss
can be occasioned by an incompetent
supervisor. Quite naturally in an
agricultural county it is desirable
that the supervisors should be farm
ers. But, these farmers should also
be business men of known ability and
when possible should possess special
qualifications for their work.
The board is the legislative body
of the county. The field of its in
fuence is far reaching. 1t has to de-
eide ON many questions and upon its
wisdom depends to very great ex-
tent whether we have good county
government or poor county govern
ment.
1T was with these facts in view
and mindful of the element of loca-
ton that the republican convention
framed it's supervisor ticket.

father being Chaplain of the fort at
that time. He came to Iowa in 1882
and has lived here ever since with the
exception of five years spent in Neb-
raska. For fifteen years he has lived
in Willow township and he is recog
nized as one of the foremost farmers
OF western Crawford. For twelve
years he has been assessor of Willow
township and his assessors books are
the envy of all who see them. He
was educated at Hedding College in
Abingdon, III. and is as we'll equipped
as any man could be to make an ex-
cellent supervisor. All through Will

and they are the people who ought to

man race as Thos. Carev is of the
gallant Irishmen. He was born in the
old country and came to Crawford in
1874, being one of the pioneer Ger
mans of the county. Like all the
Schultz family we have ever known
in this county, he is honest, capable,
big Drained and big hearted. He is
builder by trade, although large
part of his life has been spent on the
farm. For ten years he was the
bridge builder for this county. Part
of the time he worked by contract and
part of the time by the day.

being talked of and tried to stop it.
We are told that for the next few
days he was hardly able to do his
chores on account of the neighbors
and friends who came to insist that
he represent southeast Crawford on

disposed of this small interests in
Clinton county and With his family
arrived in Deniscn in the fall of 1869.
At first they lived on a rented
farm in Denison township but two
years later purchased land in Hays
and Iowa townships. This has been
the family home ever since. 1t was
here that the father died and that the
brothers and sister, remaining con-
slant to their mother, have grown to
respected maturity.
Whenever the republicans nominate
an lrishman, some son of gun jumps
up and declares that the nominee is
a democrat. Mr.. Carey cast his first
presidential vote for James G. Blain2,
and with one exception has voted for
every republican candidate for Presi-

Theodore Roosevelt and is Roosevelt

working man all his life and has new

although he has never been afraid to

Sunday morning Mr.. Franks, the
old soldier who ran a stand here
during the carnival. was cleaning his
clothing with gasoline at the hotel,
and shortly afterward lighted match

city man. He went to school in
Denison until 1888, he would have
graduated in 1889, but his people went
to California and he went with them.
Later he returned from the coast
country and at the State University
he took four years course in civil
engineering, graduating in 1894. We
know that his work in the University
was thorough and painstaking and
that his record was frst-class.
Frank says not to mention it. but
we shall nevertheless. One summer
during his University course
Frank went with bunch of his class
mates to do survey work down in
Arizona or New Mexico or some other
God forsaken country. The promised
pay was big, but the pay day has not
yet arrived. Frank, with the others
was stranded, the story of the tramp

Iowa. forms narrowing tale. but it
thoroughly illustrates the grit and
determination of Mr.. Woolston's
character. After graduating, Mr..
Woolston livedi in Denison and for two
years was city engineer. Later he
persuaded one Of the best women in
America to marry him and they set
tied on a farm in Osceela county.
Finally they came back to Denison
and they have been busy ever since,
mindiIg their farm and their own
business.
Mr.. Woolston would bring to the
board not only his own manly charac-
ter and business ability but technical
engineering knowledge which would
be of greatest value. He lives on
farm, but his residence is within the
city limits and he thus unites the
qualifications of farmer and a cit
izen of Denison. He is incomparably
better fitted for the place than blow
hard Cook, whose hand is against
every man and who thinks that what
he does not know is not worth put

There are FIVE farmers on that tick
ct from the townships Of Jackson,
Iowa, Willow. Morgan and Denison.
Geographically the distribution is
about the best that could have been
made. There are five farmers on the
republican ticket for supervisors.
There are also five business men. for
every one of the nominees has already
proven himself a business man, cap
able of handling large affairs as we'll
as small ones. Each man is known
in his community as successful, hon
est, upright and capable man. Not
only this. but one of the nominees.
Mr.. Schultz. is an expert bridgeman.
For ten years he was county bridge
builder and the county never had bet
ter built, more honestly constructed
bridges. No shrewd contractors
would be able to pull the wool over
Mr.. Schultz eyes.
Another of the nominees is a grad
uate civil engineer, man who is ex-
perienced in road work and surveying
and who could speak with authority.
We are proud of the supervisor
ticket-Maynard, Carey, Woolston,
Sweet and Schultz. The question is
whether the voters will sieze this op-
portunity to elect a good board Of
farmer business men or whether TO,
partisan or other reasons they will
re-elect men whose unfitness ha.
been amply proven.
