Republican County Ticket is
Made Up of Men Who Have
Had Experience in Work
RECORDS IN OFFICE ARE URGEC
Splendid Work Done by Men Now in
Office Recommend Them to the People
of the County For Continuation in
Office,

With the general election less than a
week away politics is beginning to be-
come a paramount issue in the county
and the voters in the county are begin
ming to make an examination into the
records of the candidates for Office with
a view Of electing a new set of officers
for the two years term.
The republican party comes before
the people of the county this year with
ticket composed of candidates who
with one exception, are experienced
men. These men are men who have
been actively engaged in the care of
the duties of the Offices they hold and
their records are open to the examina-
ton of the people of the county. The
republican party in Kenosha county is
asking support only on the records Of
these men. The leaders Of the party
believe that it is to the best interests
of the people of the whole county to
keep these experienced men in Office
and the condition of the official affairs
of the county at the present time shows
a condition of carefully practiced pub
lie economy which should prove a big
factor in deciding the voters to retain
the representatives of the party in Of
flee for another term.
Not one Of the men named by the re-
publicans for county Offices has ever
proved llnfaithful to his trust and as
a business proposition the voters should
give the claims of these men the most
careful consideration. Kenosha county
is republican county but the present
election is what is termed am off wear
election and if the loyal voters of
the county fail to turn out and vote
they will leave the way open for the
election Of the democratic ticket and
the placing of men in office who are un-
tried. Sound business sense would in
dicate that such an action would be a.
decidedly bad thing for the county.
The republican candidates are so well
known to the people of the county
many of them through years of faithful
service--that they need no introduc-
ton. The entire ticket is worthy of the
support of every voter in the county.
Curtiss For AssembIyman.
Kenosha county by her vote at the
recent primary election showed that it
was one of the strongest of. the So
called HProgressives' in the state and
in keeping with this fact it, is most
suitable that Walker M. Curtiss of Ire
vor should be the candidate of the re-
publican party for Member of the AS
sembly. Mr.. Curtiss has served two
terms in the state legislature and in
that time he has been one of the most
active supporters of the progressive leg.
islation. He has record that is alb
solutely clean and never has the FINGER
of suspicion been pointed at him in any
of his work in the legislature. Mr.. Chr
tiss is a farmer. He has extensive
holdings in the county and is deeplv in
terested in all legislation which tends
to benefit Kenosha county. He has been
connected with several big movements
in the legislature and he can be exneet-
ed to get results if returned to- Madison
at the election on next Tuesday.
For County Clerk.
Russell H. Jones is the republican
candidate for the Office of County Clerk.
Mr.. Jones has held this Office for a it,
tie over three years and in that time he
has won the reputation of being the
best man ever placed in the Office of
county clerk in the county. He has been
loyal to the demands of the people and
through the application of sound bns;-
ness sense to the management of tbe
office he has saved hundreds if NOT
thousands of dollars for the tax PAYERS.
He has installed new systems for work
In the clerk s office, has handled the
care of the paupers and dependents in
a way to make money for the county
and at the same time he has done much
to secure better care for the unfort-
unates. Not the least Of his innovations
has been the establishment of an en-
ployment bureau in connection with his
office. This bureau the service from
which has been furnished free has
found places for many idle men dur
ing the year and has aided the farmers
IN the rural districts materially in get
ting men to help with their farm work
Mr. Jones is always courteous and add
ing to this his honesty and integrity
