tific course laid down by the
| later college. Miss Philbrook
is thoroughly equipped for the
Office to which she aspires, few in
! fact are more so. She has been
a teacner for nine years and the
universal satisfaction which she
has given in the Wa-Keeney
ommendation in itself. She pos
sesses a high christian character
and bears a name which any
woman may be proud Of If en-
! trusted with the duties of this
+ important Office there will be no
one who can fill it more honora-
bly, and creditably than Miss
Philbrook
CLERK OF THE DISTRICT COURT.
G. E. Ridgway, the efficient
clerk, is a candidate for re-elec-
ton. This is another Office which
should be filed by a painstak-
ing person and the records of
the office show M. Ridgway to
be such an official Attorneys,
who are qualified to know, speak
in the highest terms of his work.
His reelection is conceded and
only remains for the voters to
approve it on November 3.
SURVEYOR
Hudson Harlan's experience in
the Office is sufficient reason for
his re- lection. AS surveyor of
Trego county Mr. Harlan has
given excellent satisfaction as he
is careful and painstaking with
his work. He is exceptionally
well qualified to hold this import
ant Office and the republicans are
particularly fortunate in secur-
ing one so thoroughly equipped
to dischage the duties of this of
fee as Mr.. Harlan His re-elec-
ton is conceded by ALL
CORONER.
Perhaps no Office in the county
needs the services of a compe-
tent physician so much as that of
coroner. Dr. Herrick is thor
oughly equipped for this office
being a resident physician of
large practice. He is well known
and well liked by the people and
if elected will prove himself a
thoroughly competent and salts
factory official in this capacity.
COMNISSIONER 2ND DISTRICT.
T. B. Walker has been chosen
by the Republicans to represent
the peoples interests in the com
misSioner'S office from the sec
ond district. In every way Mr..
Walker is competent to discharge
the duties entrusted to him in a
way highly satisfactory to all.
Mr.. Walker is a resident of Wa
Keeney and will have the time to
look after the more minute de-
tails of the office which are so es-
sential to the success of the of
fee. If elected the people will
have no cause for regret in hav-
ing placed Mr.. w in Office.
COMMISSIONER BIRD DISTRICT.
Robert Briggs has been chosen
from the third district as com
missioner. Mr.. Briggs is well
known to the voters of the third
district and is admirably fitted
for the duties of this office. Per,
hapS no Office in the county re
quires more careful honest men
to discharge its duties than that
of commissioner and this re
quirement is more than met by
Mr.. Briggs. His honor and in
tegrity cannot be questioned,
and his qualifications more than
fit him for the place. He is care
full and conservative in the man
agement of his own affairs there
fore is capable of managing the
affairs of the office in way that
cannot fail to please the most ex-
acting His election will be no
mistake.
In last weeks issue we failed |
to mention our high school trus-
tees SO this week we want to
make good" and ask them to |
excuse US this time as we have
been so busy we didn't hardly |
know our own name. Mr.. Yet
ter is candidate from the 1st
district and a better man could |
not be found for he possesses the |
necessary qualifications for this
place and the people could not |
make a wiser selection. And |
