THE JJTDICIARY.

My name will appear on the nom
partisan ticket this fall as candi-
date for judge of the common pleas
court of Fulton county. The name of
no candidate for this office will ap-
pear on any party ticket. The name
of only one candidate who was nomin-
ated in the primaries will appear on
the ticket. Less than 35 per cent.
of the voters>of this county voted for
any candidate for this position, much
less than one-fifth Of the voters of
the county voted for any one candi-
date for this office.
/ have been nominated by petition,
as provided by the constitution and
laws of this state. / propose making
an honorable, clean campaign for the
office. l shall not try to build up my
own interests on the ruins of any
other candidate. / shall not make use
of any political "Roarbacks" or fore
casts as to the relative strength of
any OF the candidates. If | cannot
get the votes necessary to elect me
by making clean campaign and with
out resort to political trickery, will
be defeated. No man who will make
use of political trickery is worthy of
the confidence of the people for this
honorable position.
Judging from what l have already
heard, you will probably hear it pro-
phesied that I will have vote that
will place me in third or fourth
place, or that / have withdrawn from
the ticket. These things may have
their influence with some voters, but
with only small per cent. of the in
telligent voters Of Fulton county.
Rest assured l will be in the contest
to the finish
I have been in the active practice
of the law in this county for nearly
thirty-five years, have taken part in
the trial of as many cases as any at
torney at this bar, and with reason
BILE degree of success. / believe my
experience qualities me to fill this of
fee so that litigants will have no
just cause to complain. and at the
same time protect the interests of the
county. I served you for six years
as prosecuting attorney, and my ad-
ministration of that office from 1892
to 1898 is we'll known to the people,
and I think requires no comment or
explanation.
| will furnish no communications
for the newspapers to which my name
is not signed, lauding my qualifica-
tions for this position, or otherwise
Whatever l have to say for myself
will be over my own signature.
If I should be entrusted with the
duties of this position, / shall en-
deavor to protect the interests of the
people and to see that litigants and
their counsel are treated fairly, justly
and impartially, and that justice is
meted out in all cases, as near as II
is in my power to do.
4 l most respectfully solicit the votes
of the electors of this county.
Respectfully,

EDWIN H. coNKLE.

Edwin H. Conkle, son of John and
Sarah Conkle, was born in Defiance
County, Ohio, May 13th,. 1861, and
passed away at his home in Wauseon,
Ohio, Sept. 18th, 1914, at the age of
SO years and four months.
He grew up on the farm in De-
fiance county. In young manhood
he left the farm to engage in
mercantile work. For twelve years
he was office manager for the Cleve-
land Grain Company and filed that
responsible positions with fine ability
and great satisfaction to those who
employed him. A few years ago he
came to Wauseon and engaged in the
coal business and was very successful
in this line of activity.
He was first united in marriage to
Precilla Shrimplin who preceded him
in death several years ago. On July
31st, 1913, he married Katherine Rob-
lnson who now sadly mourns the
heavy loss she has sustained by his
untimely death. Besides the widow he
leaves two sisters, Mrs. Laura Christ
effel of Butler, Indiana, and Mrs.
Amanda CARRIER, also of Butler, and
/.
Garret, Indiana, and John P. Conkle,
OF Butler, and many other relatives
and very large number of friends.
His Christian life began several
years ago when he united with the
Congregational church in Cleveland,
Ohio. A few months ago he trans
ferred his membership to the Metho-
dist church in Wauseon of which
church his wife was already mem-
Der, and was regarded by his fellow
members as one of the most substan-
tial men in the church.
His life was characterized by many
virtues and fine qualities which make
up a strong and, beautiful character.
He possessed that stirling integrity
that made his word as good as q
bond and all his business dealings
were characterized by perfect hon
esty and care for the interests eff
others as well as himself. He was
very public spirited and was willing
to make great personal sacrifices for
the interest of his town and COM
munity. He was a member of The
Wauseon Lodge Knights of Pythias,
and his brothers in the lodge
1861 Iiide Will HIS departure one
of their very best members is gone.
In the social circle he was somewhat
reserved but ever had the bearing and
dignity Of the perfect christian gentle
man and his presence was ever high
ly appreciated by his friends. In the
home circle especially his many vir-
tues shone with bright and beautiful
lustre. He had the deepest love and
most thoughtful consideration for his
companion and contributed all in his
power to the sunshine and happiness
that characterized their home. Why
such useful and beautiful characters
should be taken away by an untimely
death is one of the mysteries that
confronts US but we bow in submission
to the will of God and trust that such
events are wisely planned by his in
finite wisdom. His presence will be
sadly missed by his business associat-
es, in the social circle, and most of all
in the broken home but in the midst
of our sadness we can rejoice to re-
member that the good influence of
his life has not come to close but
that being dead he will still continue
to speak for God and truth and right
eouSnesS.
