7. j. Kreuder's popular cam
paign for county commissioner.
AS one OF the two who are TO be
elected this year, is putting him
in the front rank of all the can
didates for that office. Two
years ago, when but one was TO
be elected he was beaten by only
a few hundred votes, and at
that time he had the court house
contingent against him. Now
there is not such opposition, and
he still retains all his former
strength and popularity. His
efficiency is well known and
there seems to be no valid rea-
son why he should not be nomi-
mated and eventually elected.
