OUR COUNTY TICKET

In accordance with our usual cam
paign custom we present herewith a
write-up in detail of the several cand-
idates constituting the ticket of the
Republican party of Trego county
and submit the same for considera
tion by the intelligent, careful, con-
sentative voters of all parties. We
invite close scrutiny and careful COM
parison of our candidates with the
claims made for the candidates of
other parties in the hope that such
examination and comparison cannot
fail to produce a favorable impression
upon the mind of every intelligent
voter who will take the trouble to in
form himself. To say too much of a
candidate is quite as bad as to say too
little. We have endeavored to avoid
fulsome praise, to do justice to our
subject and to our readers, and above
all, to speak truly and without I'M
kind reflections upon the opposing
candidates. Our ticket is made up
of candidates from almost all parts of
the county, east, west and central,
and we feel sure that every voter in
the county will take especial pride in
supporting one or more of them, re-
gardless of party bias.
For Representative.
o. L. Cook, our nominee for repre-
sentative, really needs no introduce
ton to the people of Trego county.
He has been a resident here about
thirty years and the nature and ex-
tent of his activities have been such
as TO extend his acquaintance and
reputation far beyond the confines of
the tract known as Trego county. In
truth. he is almost as well and favor
ably known in all the adjoining coun-
ties as he is at home. This wide
acquaintance has made him CONVEX
SAINT with the conditions in western
Kansas and with the needs and de-
the state, all of which we conceive
will be of great advantage to him as
a legislator and indirectly quite as
fortunate for the people whose
interests he will serve with industry,
fairness and fidelity. AS to his natur-
Al and acquired ability, even his
dearest enemy (if he have one) will
freely concede that the man who can
get ahead of o. L. Cook in the dis
cussion of matters of public interest
viii have to go some. Mr.. Cooks OPP
ponent is e. ID. Wheeler, of Wa-Kee-
ney-
For County Clerk.
c. ii. Benson. of Ogallah, is our
candidate for the office of county
clerk He has been resident of the
county 80 years and is well and favor
ably known, more especially in the
central and eastern part of the coun-
ty We want to assure those of our
readers who have not had the
pleasure of meeting Mr.. Benson that
he has the character, ability, training
and experience necessary to serve
them acceptably and efficiently in the
Office to which he aspires- He has
had several years experience as trustee
and assessor of Ogallah township and
as such he has already become fami-
liar with considerable part of the
work performed by the county clerk.
