We see several good men's names
mentioned for the office Of Sher-
ilf, among them being Mr.. Jack
son and Mr.. Barr. Either of
them would do credit TO our
county, and honor to themselves,
and whose Democracy can rot be
questioned, and should either
come out would lead us to an I'M
biased victory.
Mr.. Hardman, as mentioned by
a correspondent, would make a
good man for the position if he
should choose to give up his vast
business interests for the success
of the county and the party, but
is that not again placing the bal
ance OF power into the hands Of
the sacred CD few, from whom
the people have been struggling
ID release themselves from the
grip that saps their daily bread?
Nay, nay, Mr.. Editor, there may
be gap between the combina-
ton and Mr.. Hardman, butts not
blood thicker than water? For
personal reasons, no one could
have better friends than these
gentlemen in question, but at
each turn they may do for char
ity or otherwise, they see in the
dim future some sort of retribu-
ton for the outlay, or they have
an ak to grind" and are looking
for scme mechanical means tc
turn the stone, hence why moi
one Of the aforementioned gen.
;lemen.
In looking over the timber fol
the Assessorship, no doubt BOZ
! Mollohan would make a good
man to elect to that Office, and
there are other good men, whose
dignity has kept from the politi-
cal campfire, but who have never
sulked in their quarters nor failed
to carry their shield of political
faith. We might mention Will
Sturms from Lee, or John Barr
from Sherman. Both are good
men and would accord their best
efforts for the county's interests.
Tho people of our county should
not forget TO keep one eye open
for Fred Gamer, the popular
young business man, and ore Of
the most honest, faithful and
conscientious men Of Our county,
who has the education and ability
that should be held paramount
in the selection of a county Off
ciaI. Fred is a good "rsixcr"
and one of the best prospective
pieces of political timber in the
county's woodpile.

ries in the history of our illus

of a man, identified by papers in his

drug firm here, was found early today
in the second floor OF the colorado
building. The man evidently had
fallen from the seventh floor, but
whether by accident er intent had
not been determined Investigation
by the police strengthened the suicide
theory. Early today Mrs. Bridaham
telephoned c. W. Knowles, an uncle,
that her husband had secretly left

Bridaham, it appears, gained en-
trance to the building without the
knowledge Of the ajnitor or elevator
pilot and went to the seventh floor.
A window on this floor directly above
where the body was found had been
opened and fresh shoe prints were
found on the sill.
