A GOOD MAN

Seldom has any candidate for any
state Office received a more general
endorsement than that which is now
being rendered Governor
Norbeck. who will seek election as
the republican candidate for chief
executive of the state. Mr.. Norbeck
is business man, and a successful
one. and will bring to the state az
acting head the good business judg-
ment and sound common sense that
has distinguished him in his private
affairs. Mr.. Norbeck has the
confidence of the people Of the state
without regard to faction, and we
believe his nomination will do much
towards silencing the factional bit
terness that has been so prominently
disagreeable in the republican party
for years past.
