thing that could be printed here Mr..
Groendycke has given his entire
time to the office, does business in a
systematic, business way and COM

mands the friendship of everybody |
who has occasion to transact busi- J
ness in his office.
SEWARD 1. FIELD
A public officer who discharges |
his duty fearlessly and courageously |
sometimes makes enemies. 1t is so
in the case of Seward 1. Field who
| is candidate for reelection to the
office of county attorney. MrField
has made a record as strong
prosecutor and, naturally, some who
[ have been prosecuted, as we'll as
some of their friends, would like to-
elect a man who never wins a case,
but we have confidence in the good
sense and wisdom of the real busi-
ness men of the county and feel
sure of Mr.. Fields reelection. Mr..
Field is one of the strong lawyers
of this part of the state, has a wide
j experience in the practice graduated
from two colleges in his young man
hood and has more than the neces-
sary qualifications to handle the
work of this important office. There
is no comparison between him and
his opponent as a lawyer-the Re
publican candidate can hardly claim
to be lawyer.
S. P. GARRISON
Probably no other county office is
of so much concern to everybody
than that of probate judge, and it
is of incalculable Importance that
the incumbent of that office be a
man we'll versed in the law and that
his good judgment and integrity be
well established. Judge S. P. Garri-
son is such a man. He has been
tried and his record is without a
flaw. Can you, reader, as a man
of family whose estate may be
probated any day, afford to take
chances and elect new and un-
, tried man when you have the oppor-
tunity to retain Judge Garrison?
Let your own conscience answer the
question.
