Magee was at that time fiscal head

Hon. James III. johnson, while probate
Judge, continued his private business
interests.
1, myself, while probate Judge, have
continued to be a private practition-
err"
And now Mr.. Titus has discovered
that this is all wrong and that for the
last 40 years the probate judges of this
county, through ignorance or otherwise,
have failed to perform their duty
Mr.. Titus must have made this discov-
cry recently. He was prosecuting at
torney of this county for five years and
during that time continued to be "pri-
vate practitioner In 1904, in the effort
he was then making to win the office OF
probate Judge Mr.. Titus endeavored to
gain the support of a young attorney OF
this county on the promise to take him
into partnership, il he succeeded in win
ming the Office, so that he Judge Titus)
and said attorney might conduct a pri-
vate law business just as l myself have
done. | have In my possession the afil-
davits of two reliable witnesses to this
fact. which | will show to anyone desir-
ing to see them. So that, if Mr.. Titus
had been probate judge stree 1904, he
would, while probate Judge, have contin-
ued to be a private practitioner"
The fact is, man can be better pro-
bate Judge by remaining in general prac-
tice. 1t compels him to keep up his
study of the law in general and to keep
his mind alert and his energies awake
as nothing else could do.
l have no new born conception OF my
official duty to offer to catch your
votes. My platform is simply that, il
continued in the probate Office, | shall
continue to perform the duties of tina,

ness, courtesy and kindness to all.

To the republican electors of Van
Buren, county:
| have served one term as probate
Judge and am candidate for renomina-
ton. Lincoln II. Titus has announced
himself as candidate in opposition and
in so doing sets forth his platform, the
principal part Of which is statement
that, if he succeeds in winning the Office,
he will be at the probate Office every
business day and will give his entire
time to the duties of the Office and will,
as he says, mot be private practitioner. "
A bit of probate history may be inter-
esting and instructive. Of my prede-
cessors, Hon. George W. Lawton served
two terms, Hon A. j. Mills served one
term and was promoted to the circuit
bench, Hon. o. n. Hilton served two
terms, Hon. Benz. +. Heckert served
two terms and Hon. James II. johnson
served two terms.

reasonably we'll acquainted with the
duties devolving on them.

Contest VIII Soon he Over.


One week from next Tuesday
the republicans of Van Buren,
county will for the first time,
have the privilege of nominating
their candidate for official posi-
ton and honors by the much
Wanted primary system. The
result of this experiment will be
watched with much interest.
The True Northerner has not
heretofore been an advocate of
the new system and has not hes
itated to point out what it
thought TO be valid objections
thereto and why it thought that,
in Van Buren, county at least. it
would prove to possess no advan-
tages over the time honored con-
vention system, but if its results
shall prove satisfactory to the
people and work any improve
ments to their advantage and to
the welfare Of the republican
party, we shall most cheerfully
give it our adherence and sup
port. In one respect, at least, it
has verified the predictions of
the True Northerner, and that is
in the matter Of expense to can
didates for office Where there
exists a contest for nomination
candidates have already eXpeud-
ed a greater sum in postage
alone, to say nothing Of other
legitimate expenses, than their
entire expenditure would have
been under the convention plan.
However, the county is likely
to secure an efficient set of Off
Gals this year, as it has invaria-
bly, done in the past, as all the
candidates are capable, honora-
BILE men.
Following is list of Van Blu,

voters must make a choice:
For Representative-Benj. F..

Wagon.
The Decatur Republican has a
happy faculty Of always espous-
ing the side of any proposition
which it believes to be the popu
lar one. 1t invariably hastens
to climb into the band wagon
which appears to be the largest
and the most likely to reach its
destination first. If there is any
doubt as TO the most popular
side of a proposition, the Repub-
lican will be found "on the fence. "
When the meeting for the or
ganization of the good citizenship
league was held, it was talked
and understood at that time that
one Of the principal objects of
the league would be to publish
the records of the various candi-
dates for office and use it's influ-
ence in favor of certain candi-
dates. The True Northerner
took issue with the league and
pointed out its objections to the
league mixing in politics. The
Republican defended the original
purpose of the league and told
it's readers what benefit such a
league was in Chicago, where

The several candidates for the
various county offices have only
about 10 days more in which to
finish their campaign, which has
been the most strenuous ever
seen in Van Buren, county.
Some of the candidates are be
ginning to show the effects OF
the long strain. Only one, how
ever, has shown that his mind
was in the least affected, and
that is George Rich or Waverly.
He went "batty' or ''nutty,' as
some might say, and wandered
over into Kalamazoo county
While yet in this condition, the
Kalamazoo Telegraph took ad
vantage of him and worked poor
George for advertising space
He hasn't been seen or heard
from since, and we cannot state
whether he has recovered hi:
normal condition or not.
