Counties.

NENSf NAhN AH -
Although the republicans have had oandi-
dates for all the county offices in Johnson
county for some time, the democrats filled
but q small per cent Of the offices up to the
last day Of filing, and finally were not
able to get anyone to make the race for
county judge. Most Of the other places
were filled at the last moment, the county
officers being obliged to come down to their
offices after supper to make tive or three
Of the filings. As the candidates now stand
the lineup is as follows:
Republican-For county treasurer, ]. @.
Burress and W. c. Redfield of Tecumsah,
and H. N. Libby of Elk Creek. For county
clerk L. D. Spence of Crab Orchard. For
sheriff, Eugene Roberts Of Tecumseh and
A. w. Case Of Sterling. For superintend-
ent Of public instruction, M. H.. Carman of
Cook. For county Judge, James Livingston
Of Sterling. For commissioner, Grant Buer-
stetta, George Ernst and Luther Mattox of
Tecumseh.
Democrats-For treasurer. c. G. Ellis of
Sterling. For clerk, Henry Hlntx Of st
Mary. For sheriff, H. U. Miner and Harry
Berry OF Tecumseh, and A. H. Borland Of
Sterling. For superintendent Of public in
struotion, Miss Josephine Moberiy Of ster-
ling. For commissioner, b. H. Grist of Te-
cumseh.
The democrats are having a little trouble
In their own camp on the candidates for
sheriff. Mr., Miner is the present incumb-
ent and has his following. while there is
an anti-Miner faction which is pushing Mr..
Berry. Leading politicians have been at
work in IN endesvor to get Mr.. Berry to
pull out Of the face in the interests Of Mr..
Miner, but the Berry faction is contrary
and will not do It.
