Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1912-10-31

The Republican party have pre-
sented this fall for the endorsement
of the voters of Michigan the strong
est ticket in the line of state offices
that they have chosen in many years.
The state ticket is composed OF lead
ers and men exceptionally successful
in their different vocations. They
come before the people of this state
with the full endorsement of the peo-
pie from their homes. Upon the
character of any, there is not a single
black spot
For State Treasurer, John w.
Haarer of Ann Arbor is seeking cleo
ton. AT the present time Mr. Haarer
is Deputy State Treasurer and his
duties in this office have made him
competent to hold the office of State
Treasurer Mr. Haarer is thorough
business man and before entering the
service Of the state was engaged in
successful business at Ann Arbor. He
was chosen by the Republicans as
their nominee over two, other very
capable and popular men. The selec-
ton OF Mr. Haarer was no mistake
but one that added an extremely cap
able and honorable man to the state
ticket.
Auditor General Oramel b. Fuller
of Ford River is again the Republi-
can choice for the office he holds.
Probably no more popular man has
ever run on any ticket in Michigan
than Mr.. Fuller At the last election
he polled nearly two-thirds of the en-
! tire vote cast He came to Michigan
at. the age of eleven and by his own
efforts has educated himself, entered
into business and made friends in
every county in the state. The whole
Republican party stand behind Mr..
Fuller and will cast their votes for
him next Tuesday.
A. c. Carton of Iosco was nomin-
ated by the Republican convention by
acclamation for State Land Commits
! sioner. There was not a single voice
raised in protest against this choice
at the convention and there has not
been a single voice raised to con-
denim that selection since Such is
the respect held by the Republicans
of Michigan of this candidate. Mr..
Carton is especially equipped to per-
| form the duties of the office. His
life's work has prepared him to meet
the problems that are ever confront
| ing the land commissioner. A civil
| engineer and farmer is Mr.. Cartons
ctolr tla
| selection OF him as candidate. There
can be no mistake in his election.
When you vote next Tuesday, you
will be asked to cast your ballots for
two men to become Supreme Court
| Justices. The Republicans have re-
nominated two Supreme Court JUS
tees. Justice Joseph H. Steere and
Justice Franz Kuhn.
Judge Steerc was appointed by
Gov Osborn to fill a vacancy in the
| Supreme Court. His opinions upon
the bench have attracted statewide
! attention for their broad and pro-
found views. 1t is only natural that
the Republican should wish Justice
Steere returned to the bench. Mr.
SteereS home is at the 500 where for
a number of years he sat as Circuit
Judge.
Judge Kuhn is one of the youngest
men that has ever sat upon the STU
preme Court bench of this state. He
is native of Michigan a graduate of
the University of Michigan. For a
number of years he practised law
with great success at Mt Clemens
and was appointed Attorney General
in 1910. Later he was appointed to
the Supreme Court and is UP this
fall for election to that high position
TheTecord of Mr. Kuhn as Attorney
| General and Supreme Court Judge is
