Editor Wagner of the Mansfield Leader is
still grouchey His leading editorial starts out with
the following significant paragraph:
''The editor of to day has to get his nose
down to the grind stone and keep it there six
teen hours per day and 500 days in the year
or he falls by the way side"
His only other editorial in the same issue be,
gins with the following pathetic lines.
cit is little use for the local editor to waste
his lungs and sprain his spine in trying to
boom town when the citizens all stand a
round with their hands in their pockets and
indifferently wait for something to turn up!''
We sympathize with the editor of the Leader
but there is every indication that his fellow towns
men do not.

Yancy Carter is going to stump the state
in the interest of his candidacy; the Atlanta
Journal is giving him some little assistance
by their continual slurs at Joe Brown but it
won't amount to anything; the Journal hasn't
enough courage to openly advocate no matter
how much they would like to see him beat
Joe Brown.-Cordele Rambler.
The editor of the Rambler knows that there is not
even the slightest possibility that Joe Brown will be
defeated. The sorriest white man in Georgia would
be elected Governor if nominated by the Demo-
cratic party, over Yancy Carter or any other can
didate The matter was settled at the Democratic
Convention in Atlanta. Then why should the At
lanta Journal or any other paper belle its honest
convictions to affect friendship or admiration
for Joe Brown. We expect to vote the Democratic
ticket and we know there are enough men in Geor.
gia who will vote straight to elect the Democratic
candidate, and Ship, old boy, that is the limit to
which we can possibly CO.
The Smith democrats in Georgia are the surest
guarantee of the election of Joe Brown. But for
Ehe love of candor do expect us to admire the

Upon Urgent Request Of

The supporters of the Citizens party
of Baraga township will no doubt be
pleased to learn that John H. Hid Is
being looked upon with favor as can
didate for the nomination of supervisor
on the Citizens ticket.
For some time his many friends have
endeavOred to have him seek the nomi-
nation, but for various reasons he had
declined, until at last such stress was
brought to bear that he was compelled
to concede to the demands of his ad-
mirers.
Mr.. Hid is well and favorabiy known
and the party which he is to represent
feel that they could hardly make bet
ter selection for the head of their
ticket.
As an Office holder Mr.. Hid has al
reody shown his capability, having
successfully held the position Of sheriff
of Baraga county, and since the expira-
ton of his time in that capacity has
held many positions of prominence on
various boards, such as village council
and school board, the latter Of which he
is still president.
AS q businessman he is kind and
courteous and his popularity as such is
manifested by the many years Of SER
vice which he has given in the interests
of the Big Store, and now that he has
consented to run he solicits the hearty
support Of the people at the caucus to
be held in the Town Hall, Wednesday
afternoon, March 25th, assuring his
supporters that if elected at the annual
election on April 9Th to lend the same

Miss Powers will be. remembered as

ing the following term she was en-

Denver. March 17--Active political
work on behalf of candidates for the
nomination for president and vice
nresident before the Democratic Ma
fionaI Convention which meets In
Denver idly Z. has already begun In
this city. Headquarters have been
rented at the hotels ana political
workers are on the ground looking
after the interests Of the men they
represent.
The campaign for the various candi-
dates seems TO have opened about two
months earlier than is usual.
Prominent among those who have
been mentioned in connection with the
presidential nomination are W. j.
Bryan of Nebraska; George Grey, OF
Delaware: Stuyvesant Chanler Of New
York. and Governor John A. Johnson.
of Minnesota. Their friends who are
already here in their interests state
positively that their names VIII go
before the convention as nominees- A
number of other candidates for the
nomination are mentioned but none Of
them appear to have developed
strength enough 80 far. to make their
intentions of interest to those who
are really in the race
The attitude of the delegation from
Colorado is attracting a great deal
of interest. The argument Is made
that because the convention is being
held in this state and more than $780,
600 is to be spent in the entertainment
of the delegates from other states,
the Colorado delegation should go into
the convention uninstPucted. For this
reason II Is probable that Colorado's
delegation will be left free to vote for
whatever candidate 1t chooses.
