GEORGE F. STEELE
Democratic Nominee for Justice Of
the Peace.


Democratic Nominee for Justice Of
the Peace.
Judge George F. Steele, candidate
on the democratic ticket for justice
of the peace for Occur d'Alene which
under the recent apportionment of
the board of county commissioners,
is now made to include all OF the
city and much Of the territory lying
adjacent to 1t, IL eminently fitted
and qualified in every way to dis
charge all of the duties pertaining
to the office which he seeks at the
hands of the voters, and his past rec
ord, both as citizen and public
official, is an absolute guarantee that
each and every one of the duties
that will develop upon him by rea-
son of the Office, If elected, will be
faithfully and efficiently discharged.
Judge Steele has been a resident
of Kootenai county for the past is
years, and during that time he has
held number of Offices Of public
trust. Prior to his coming to the
county he also held similar offices
in his home state, Wisconsin, and
his conduct of the business OF them
has been characterized by faithful
ness and ability. He commenced
life in Brown county, Wisconsin, as
school teacher, and the people of
that county, in recognition Of his
integrity as a man, and ability as
an instructor, elected him to the
Office of county superintendent Of
schools. His services as an official
in this Office was so marked for
efficiency, that he was reelected, and
for seven successive years he served
Brown county as its superintendent
Of schools. During President Cleve-
lands administration he was appoint
ed as a clerk Of the general land
Office at Washington, d. c., but
shortly he was appointed as Indian
agent for the Occur d'Alene Indian
reservation, and in 1893 he came to
Idaho to assume charge of the Occur
d'Alene Indian agency. He occupied
the position of Indian agent from
1898 to 1901, a period of eight
years, and his administration met
with universal satisfaction. All the
matters coming before him for ac-
ton and solution in his ofEicial
capacity were dispatched in diligent
and able manner and under his ad-
ministration the Occur d'Alene tribe
Of Indians progressed and prospered.
Because of the vigilant guard he
kept over their interests and well
fare he won their lasting respect and
admiration, and at DeSmet mission
George Steele stands high in the es-
timation of all who knew him, as a
man and public Official.
Upon his retirement as agent of
the Occur d'Alene Indian reservation
he took up his residence In the city
of Occur d'Alene. He entered the
real estate and insurance business,
and ranks today as one OF Occur
d'Alene's most successful and infiu-
entail business men. At the last
election he wss the candidate OF
his party for the ONCE of justice Of
the peace. and though the city Of
Occur d'Alene is republican. he was
elected by a large majority. Mr..
steele is one Of the hard workers
for county seat removal.
