THE COUNTY TICKET.

LnlS campaign Inc Tribune urges the
people of Canyon county to vote for
every person on the Republican county
ticket. The party adopted a platform
III which every man and woman in the
county sympathizes. The Republicans
endorse the national and state admin
istration. They are in favor of a d.
rect primary and local option. In ad-
dition they also favor a wise and eco
nomical administration of county af-
fairs. If elected, they promise to full
full each and every one of these Pied
ges. The nominees have the ability as
well as the desire to do all these
things. At the head of the Republican
county ticket is B. P. Shawhan for
state senator. He is a business man
OF ability, and local optionist with a
record for actual good done. He has
with him on the ticket, ]. M. Thomp-
son, l.. V. Patch and Claud H. Duval
all of these earnest, energetic young
men. They have their lives before
them, and they want to make a rec
ord. The past record of each is suffi-
cient to convince the people that they
are heart and soul with the Republic
can county platform. They will not
only promote the welfare of the people
OF Idaho in wise legislation, but will
also vote for and elect a Republican
United States senator. The Republi-
cans of Canyon county should remem-
Der that in voting for the members of
the Republican legislative ticket they
are indirectly voting for a Republican
United States senator. For sheriff the
party has nominated and will elect Mr..
Frank Breshears. He is a man of ex-
perience and competency. He will full
fill his promises and pledges. He is
capable of doing his duty and will do
1t. For assessor we present Frank
Crowther. He is good morally, relia-
Bile financially and perfectly compe-
tent He has the confidence of the
people of Canyon county and certainly
merits that confidence. Will Monk is
the candidate for treasurer. He is a
young man with special training for
the position. He is honest and capa-
BILE. No one will make a mistake in
supporting Mr.. Monk first, last and all
the time. The Republicans have nam
ed F. A. Hagelin for probate judge.
He is trained in the law and Just in
his application of it. He has served
the people of Canyon county for over
two years. The people know him and
will not be led astray. For attorney
we have o. M. Van Duyn, of course.
He has made the most brilliant record
OF any prosecuting attorney in Idaho.
He is a lawyer of fidelity and ability.
He deserves and will receive a re-
election. Miss Grace Carlton is our
nominee for superintendent of schools. |
Miss Carlton has had many years ex-
perience as public school teacher. |
She is competent in every respect |
Above all else she is womanly wo-
man, with an earnest sympathy with |
children and their schools. We par
ticularly urge our readers to support |
Miss Carlton. For surveyor there is |
Fred Mcconnell, a Canyon county man
first, last and all the time. He is a
man of first rate principles of every
respect. He has ability of known
worth. A. H. Lang is the candidate
for coroner. He is we'll known: he
IS we'll liked; in short he is a good
man all the time. When the trainers
ot the law which fixes the position of
he candidates on the official ballot,
hey place one of the most important
offices at the top of the county ticket,
md the other most important at the
bottom. The originators of the law
we're wise men. We do not know
whether they were Republicans or
Democrats, probably both In doing
his they showed the people, mutely
'ut eloquently, that they should vote
heir tickets straight. At the head
S state senator; at the bottom is

'ioners have directly to do with the
people. Upon them depends the well
are of the county. They can save
money for the people If they are hon

men are successful in their own af-
airs. They have had broad exper-
ences in life. They are well acquaint-

afe, sane and conservative, they are
lot hide-bound. They promise and
