TOWN CAUCUS TOMORROW

Saturday, March 27th, at
o'clock, the voters of this town
will gather at the town hall for the
purpose of placing in nomination
a town ticket, and it is the duty
of every voter to be present and
place in nomination ticket that
they will be proud of and can ably
support at the election on April O..
The main question of vital in
terest before the people, is the Of
fee Of chairman, and as we do not
desire to enter into the political
trICkery" which the Villas County
News claims We have, we sill be-
lleve it to be for the best interest
of the town and tax payer that j.
T. Nemacheck be elected as chair
man for the ensuing year. AS to
the qualification OF the two can
didates, Finn LAWYER and J. I.
Nemacheck, we leave it to the vot-
ers themselves who they think the
best man tor that office; those
who have known both men for
years, will after due considera-
ton, we believe still vote for
Nemacheck for that office.
AS to the side board, there are
but three candidates, Mike Morn
son, F. Hall and VIM. Saltenber-
ger, all of whom are well and tav-
orally known and the voters viii
not have had job to pick good
side board.
There being no opposition for
clerk and assessor, Frank Beard
sley for the former and VIM. Tell
etson for the latter office, will nave
clear sailing. 1t is urgently re-
quested that ali voters attend the
caucus tomorrow and place in the
field ticket tor the people.

much edited by reading a nearly

We are very sorry that the pub
