misfortune a couple of years ago to

j. w. Heltibrldle. candidate for
county commissioner from district
No. 2, at Miller, is one of the pion-
GERS of the county, coming from
Burdette twp to Miller several years
ago. He is one of the most active,
energetic and public spirited citizens
in Miller. No one could be better
qualified than is Mr. Heltibridle to
fill the Office of county commissions
er from this city. The city needs a
successful business man upon the
county board. Now is the oppor-
tunity to secure such a man.
The ticket offered to the voters
this year by the republican party is
exceptionally clean, able and worthy.
A large majority of the voters in
this county and in the state are re-
publicans, We believe it the duty
of every republican to vote the
ticket straight.
