Mr.. Horsey, like the candidates
for the Republican nomination, is
a comparatively young man; being
in the early thirties. He is a
native of the State of Maryland in
whose schools and those of Virginia
he received his education. He
pursued his law studies in and was
graduated from the law depart
ment of the University of Virginia
one of the formost schools for legal
education in the country and where
many of the prominent lawyers and
statesmen of the nation have re-
ceived their training in! sound legal
learning. After his admission to
the bar in Virginia, Mr. Horsey re-
moved to Spokane, Washington,
where fol. time he practiced his
profession. Upon the suggestion of
a friend who was Interested in the
mining development then taking
place in Phoebe, Mr.: Horsey in 1905,
removed to that camp and has since
with his family made it his
home. 1t may be noted in passing
that Mr.. Horsey is the, fortunate
possessor of good wife and three
children, two sturdy boys and a
baby daughter. These hostages
to fortune" do not necessarily
qualify a man for public office, but
they are apt to make a man bet
ter as well as a more ambitious
citizen than he otherwise might be.
Mr.. Horsey's character and promise
as a lawyer so soon won public re-
gard, that in the winter of 1906.
when the district attorney of
Lincoln County, died the County
Commissioners appointed Horsey to
fill the vacancy. At the election in
1906 the people of the county
ratified the choice of the commits
siohers by electing him TO the office.

George Pyne was a native of

in this world was made against
many odds. At the time he started
to study law he was employed in

often while at work would use his

the Democrats without candidate
for the judgeship, nor make it
possible for the successful candi-
date at the Republican primary to
fall into the office without opposition
at the general election. While the
office of Judge should be regarded
as nonpolitical, and we would never
be sorry to see one who has made a
good record in. that office retained
in it by unanimous vote, it is
well when new men, whose fitness
for the place is largely matter of
conjecture, are aspirants for it. that
the people shall have a real OPP

worthy of that choice.

Elsewhere will be found the
announcement of E. C. Murphy of
North Ruby as a candidate fo short
term county commissioner, subject
to the decision of the republican
voters at the September primary
election.
Mr.. Murphy came to Elko county
in 1873 with his parents, who
settled at Fort Halleck. He re-
sided there until a few years ago
when he purchased a ranch in
North Ruby, where he now resides.
He has made success at ranching
and is now one of the most
prosperous farmers IN this county.
Mr.. Murphy is a republican and
he asks the support of his party at
the primary election for the office
he seeks. He successful conduct
of his private affairs, his party
loyalty and his standing as citizen
should win for him the earnest con-
sideration of his party, at the
primary election.
