SPEAKS WELL
OF DEMOCRATS

enemy to enter the lists for public
preferment, while the Republican
candidates are few and far between
in this presidential year Of grace,
1908.
For probate Judge there is a trio
of aspirants, one from Logan and
one each from Washington and
Goodhope townships. The pro-
bable candidates will be j. b.
Dollison, the present editor of the
DEwocRAT-SENTrNEL and late may
or, John G. Stoughton of Rock
bridge, at present one of the board
of county school examiners and
John Ferguson of Washington
township, just plain farmer and
Jacksonian Democrat.
Auditor of the county seems to
be the maget which has attracted
more probable candidates than
any other Office within the gift Of
the people of the county. The
salary and it's fees and emolu-
ments are both good and fat,
something like $4,000 each year
being received by the present I'M
cumbent. Only one candidate out
side of Logan is thus far announc-
ed. He is Joe White of Mound
Crossing, known as the lightning
calculator by his friends, and who
has been deputy to various court
house officials since the memory of
man runneth not to the contrary.
Mr.. White is eXcelleptly equipped
for the position and will give the
Logan contingent a hustle for it's
money. Will Bowen, who was
defeated for his second term by
the present auditor, is being urged
by his friends all over the county
to make the race. Mr.. Bowen s
friends say that he is justly en-
titled to the nomination after the
sacrifices he made and lost his last
fight. Mr.. Bowen has many
friends in every section of the
county and would be a most form
idable antagonist in the fight for
auditor. Watch Will Bowen, is
the slogan his numerous friends
are putting into circulation.
Homer G. Hansel, business man
and manufactures and follower of
the pure and unadulterated brand
of Democracy is being urged to
make the race for auditor, Mr.
Hansel is clean man, a Christian,
a business man and for the best
interests Of Logan and Hooking
county always. Should he enter
as candidate the other candi-
dates would do well to keep a
weather eye open In his direction.
Billy Brandt, the popular in
surance man, is also being touted |
for the county authorship. Billy |
is popular among all classes and
has never been identified faction
ally and would secure strong sup
port,in the Democratic ranks,
Irving Krieg, of Brown Bros,
is being talked about for the
nomination Of auditor also. He is
one of the cleanest young men IN
Logan and is fully competent for
any position within the gift of the
county Democracy.
Harry Sparnon, leading young
attorney will stand for the office
of prosecuting attorney - his
friends hope without opposition.
Mr.. Sparnon has unaided and
alone, reached the foremost ranks
as an attorney in this county
Always Democrat, the party,
so his legion of friends think,
could not bestow the prosecutors |
Office more worthily, MIR, Spar
non is more than competent for the
duties of the Office.
John Connors of Ward, one of
two Democrats, who was ever
elected as trustee in that RepubIi- /
can Gibraltar, will probably he
one of the candidates for commits
sioners. Mr.. Connors is strong
man and his election as trustee IN
strong Republican Ward township
attests his popularity.
Joe Stroupe of Logan and John
Smith of Laurel township, are also
announced candidates.
Clerk Dan Soliday will he
named to succeed himself for
second term to that office, He
