THEODORE LENTz,
County Attorney.
Nominated from Dawson County
as Candidate for District
Judge.

The republican county convention
held last Saturday, in addition to
nominating full county ticket, made
a selection for the office of district
judge in the person of County Attor-
ney Theodore Lentz. This action be-
came necessary as the result of the
failure of the republican judicial con
vention to nominate a candidate.
The Seventh Judicial District is
composed of the counties of Custer and
Dawson, of about equal population.
Although Dawson was emitted to one
more delegate than Custer in the con-
vention, an equal number Of delegates
were sent to Miles City from each
county for the purpose of nominating
a judge. Each county claimed the
privilege of furnishing the nominee.
and the result was that the convention
adjourned without naming candidate.
The people of Dawson county feel that
by all that is fair and just they are
entitled to this office since Custer
county has had it for the last twenty
years. They placed Mr.. Lentz in
nomination by petition and the re-
publican convention on Saturday en-
dorsed his nomination in the following
resolution:
eve heartily endorse the candidacy
of Theodore Lentz of this county for
the office of district judge of this dis
trict, and to that end we pledge the
support of the republican party of this
county. We call upon all loyal repub-
licans and electors, irrespective of
party, to support Theodore Lentz in
his candidacy"

DEMOCRATIC
CONVENTION
Entire Ticket Is Filled with Exception of
State Senator and County Surveyor.

as almost criminal carelessness the
failure of the present administra-
ton to place them in condition Of
safety.
We deplore the tendency of the
republican party in Dawson county
to keep certain persons for an ap-
parently perpetual period regardless
of character or qualifications for the
reason that such practices tend to
foster a political ring, and enables
political bosses to enjoy privileges
and immunities that are not accord
ed TO all people alike.
We pledge our candidate for as
SCISSOR to assess all property equita-
bly, regardless of political affiliations
or financial standing of owners. We
pledge our candidate to collect and
pay into the county treasury all fees
that lawfully belong to the county,
and condemn the failure and neg
lect of the present republican offic-
ials to comply with the law in this
regard.
We favor the construction of
good road to Jordan at an early
date, and believe that the county
commissioners should render all aid
lawfully within their power to es-
tablish telephone communication
with this distant and prosperous
part of our county.
We condemn the policy of the
present county administration in
granting contracts to political
henchmen and favorites in payment
of political debts regardless of the
interests of taxpayers, and against
the spirit and intent of the law.
We heartily commend the admin
istration of Sheriff Larson, and par
ticularly commend his fearless and
effective enforcement of the anti
gambling law of this state, and
pledge that if he is reelected, that
he will continue his present policy
of the strict and rigid enforcement
of the anti-gambling law. We
believe that he is entitled to the
support of all citizens who believe
in the enforcement of the law re-
gardless of political affiliations.
We endorse the nomination of
Honorable Sidney Sanner for judge
of the Seventh Judicial District, and
commend him heartily to the voters
of Dawson county as a man who is
peculiarly fitted and possesses in a
rare degree all the necessary quail
ficatlons for this important and high
office.

TO THE VOTERS
Plain Statement of the Situation by
MIR. Cornell.

Having received the republican
nomination for sheriff of Dawson
county, I am going into the contest to
make winning fight, and I think
my chances at the present time are
exceedingly good. The earnest sup
port of all my friends is requested,
as we'll as of all the electors who
thoroughly believe in good govern
ment and progressive policies.
The people may feel assured that
if [ am elected to the office to which
aspire my administration will not
lack for industry, equal justice to all,
and a policy in general always looking
to the best. To deal out justice to
the best of my knowledge and belief
will ever be my policy while holding
office in Dawson county.
L am simply going into this CAM
paign to work to the utmost of my
ability and shall hope for success.
With myself, this will not be a cam
paign of blackguardism in any way,
for I know the opposing party has
many good traits. only insist that
republican administration and
change in the affairs of the sheriff S
office is best for the general interests
of the people.
If you feel that you can consistent
ly give me your vote on Nov. 8, it will
be appreciated to the fullest extent.

by direct tax upon all the property in
the county.
We earnestly favor the
immediate mapping and plotting of all
our travelled roads in Dawson county
and the economical expenditure of such
public funds as will give our settlers
suitable roads.
We recommend that when practi-
cable all roads should be laid out on
section lines.
We heartily endorse the candidacy
of Theodore Lentz of this county for
District Judge Of this district and to
that end we ple5ge the support of the
republican party of this county. We
call upon all loyal republicans and cleo
tors irrespective of party to support
Theodore Lentz in his candidacy.
The erection and construction of the
Missouri River railroad from Mandan
in the state of North Dakota, to Glen
dive, will add much material wealth
to this county and state, and will
greatly aid in the settlement of the
public lands in Dawson county, there
fore we welcome the approach Of such
lines of railroad and recommend that
the commissioners and people grant
such company every facility at their
command for it's completion.
The uninterrupted use and navigat-
tion of our great waterways is a mat
ter of national Importance and of vital
Importance to Eli the great west.
We urge upon our members in Con-
gress to secure such legislation as will
forever preserve to us the use of our
great rivers for steamboat navigation
and permit the carrying of freight
thereon in water crafts and TO that end,
in the construction of bridges and dams
on or over such waterways the same
shall be constructed in manner to per-
nit navigation.
In the carrying out of the Yellow
stone Project the general government
has incurred and will incur an expendi-
tr1re of approximately So, 500, 600 and
an annual expenditure of probably
$50, 900 n the operation and main
tenance of the same The reimburse
ment and payment of these sums will
in our judgment place such burden
upon the holders of each farm unit
under such ditch that it will amount to
positive prohibition. We therefore
urge upon our members of the legisla-
tive assembly to secure the passage of
joint resolution calling upon Con-
gress to exact such legislation that
the general government will take
over such project, manage and control
the same as public utility and fur
nish to such land owners such quantity
of water as may be necessary for such
farm unit and that the owner be taxed
in sufficient sum to meet the opera
ting expense only.

To the Citizens OF Dawson County:

Do you believe the saloon keepers have the right to
dictate the policy of your officers to the enforcement
of the laws?
Do you believe in the enforcement of the gambling
laws of the state?
Do you prefer an administration that is satisfactory to
the liquor Dealers gamblers and sporting element rather
than to one of law and order?
The Glendve Liquor Dealers Association has decided
to use all within its power to defeat Sheriff Lar
son for reelection. Why?
Sheriff Larson is pledged to continue rigid en-
forcement of the gambling laws if reelected.
WHICH Do YOU PREFER?
