and that he will represent Crawfort
county in the general assembly at it
next meeting.
w. S. MOORE
\ Next in order, We mention the name
of Winfield Scott Moore. the candidat,
for county attorney.
Mr.. Moore is resident of Manill;
where he has an extensive acquaint
ance. 1t, perhaps. does no violence
to the truth to say that his acquaint
ance is coeXtensiye with the county.
Mi. Moore comes from family Of
stalwarts. He traces his ancestry
back to John Moore. a native of Ire
land who came to this county in colon
ial days. He was a member of Gen
eral Washington's regiment at TT
DuQuesne and engaged in battle with
the French and Indians when General
Bradock was killed. Others of his
ancestors made distinguished records
| during the Revolutionary war. Viii
liam Moore, father OF the candidate,
was pCl IL III lCAACsSSC anu ithICi ~
moved to Missouri where during the
Civil Wa: not all OF the people We're
| loyal to the Union. But Mr.. MOOre's
father was a stunch Union man and
during the Cicvil war proved his pat
riotism by service of fifteen months
in Company H.. Missouri State Mil
itia Cavalry.
Mr.. Moore was reared at Spring
field, Mo. and educated first in the
common schools and, afterwards, re-
ceived college training in the South
ern Methodist school at Morrisville.
Polk county. Mo. He was admitted
to the bar in 1891 at the age of twenty
five years and commenced the prac-
tice of law in his native city, later
coming to Iowa and locating at Man
lila. He was united in marriage on
Oct. IL. 1888 to Fannie Bigelow whose
people live in the vicinity of Salix, la.
One doughter, Ruth, has blessed the
union of Mr.. and Mrs. Boore.
Mr.. Moore is q stalWart in size re-
sembling in form Dan Voorhees,, of
Indiana, who was called the tall Syc-
amore of the Wabash" He has been
a close student not only OF literature
but OF human nature and is what may
he termed an up to date man in these
respects. His long experience as 4
lawyer qualities him to discharge the
duties of the Office Of county attorney.
He not only would prove himself eff
fective in criminal prosecutions, but
in advising the county board and other
officers in the discharge of their du-
ties.
Mr.. Moore, like most of his ancest-
ors, is member of the Presbyterian
church and is prominent in the work
of that denomination. He has been a
republican all his life and ever will
ing and able to defend the policies of
the party. His influence can always
be counted in favor OF the party and
he is, therefore, deserving of the unit
ed support of the members Of the re-
publican party in this county.
We predict that Mr.. Moore will
make a strong campaign and will be
rewarded by a vote Of majority OF
the electors OF the county on election
day.
HENRY c. HOLLIS
I1cllIy u. hOllo, tuc CdiuiuItC III
supervisor from the Denison district,
is just what he looks to be, fine
specimen of young manhood with large
mental endowments. He is what may
be termed representative of the
younger class of voters having been
born in 1873. But his age is not to be
construed as arguing against an ex-
perience which especially fits him for
the discharge of the duties of the Of
flee OF supervisor.
Mr.. Kolls was educated in this cOun
ty and his education was not by any
means confined to the school house,
but in the active field of business as
we'll He began as a farmer and stock
dealer and proved himself an expert
in both lines. He has owned lands in
different parts of the county which he
improved and brought to a high state
of perfection and greatly increased the
value of his possessions. Ii may be
said that the larger part of his time
has been devoted to raising and feed
ing live stock. There is no phase
of country life with which he is not
familiar and no man in the country
the needs of the farmers
better than MIR. Kolls.
He is genial, warmhearted man
and thoroughly sympathizes with all
No man in the county is
more approachable or more courteous
in his treatment Of those who have Oc-
casion to consult him.
The reasons which commend him es-
pecialIy for the Office are his wide en-
perience, his sound judgement, his
clerical ability, his rugged honesty,
his courteous treatment of those who
meet him and his general interest in
his fellow men.
Mr.. Kolls belongs to a good family.
Many OF the old settlers OF the county
remember his father and mother, Mr..
and Mrs. Rudolph Kolls, who were
well and favorably known in this
He is married man having united
in marriage with Amelia Christensen
in 1894. They have a family of chill
dren OF which they are and should be
justly proud.
Mr.. Kolls is not republican for
revenue but has record OF voting the
republican ticket and supporting can
didates of that party. He is not an
office seeker but is selected by the PEG
pie as proper person to fill the Of
