MORE CANDIDATES.

There is another edition to the
list of aspirants for the nominations
this week and II the rush keeps up
there is going TO be n large list TO
select from Many of the offices are
still short of candidates and there
Is plenty OF room for others TO get
Into the running.
hmong the new names offered are
II. u. Zutz of Vale who was a strong
second for the nomination for asses
sor at the last election. only lacking
a few votes OF receiving the nomi-
nation. Mr.. zutz is one of the older
residents OF the county and has n
large following TO help him secure
the nomination at this time. He
aspires 60 the nomination on the re-
publican ticket.
II. H. Williams. also OF Vale. Is
seeking the nomination for county
treasurer He is located at Vale
where he can attend TO the duties
pnd there IS no question about his
qualifications. He was a graduate
OF the ontario High school and has
many friends in the county. This
Is the "Deacons" FIRST political yen-
ture, but he is going TO make a
strong campaign for the nomination.
u. W. Mulky of Vale. who was
county clerk few years ago, is out
after the position OF assessor. MIR.
AIulky has had much experience as
n campaigner and is widely and fav-
orably known 80 that he will be a
strong vote getter.
II. NJ. Carllle. OF Ontario. formerly
OF Ironside. is out for the democratic
nomination as assessor. Mr.. Carlile
made n good run for the nomination
two years ago and will do better this
time. He is thoroughly qualified
for the position and his wide ac-
Quaintance Is going 10 help him get
the nomination.
Ross o. Seward. OF Vale. the
deputy 1herln. would like TO havp
the democrats place him In nomi-
nation for treasurer. Mr.. Seward is
considered an excellent deputy sheriff
and would no doubt make a good
treasurer II elected. This Is his first
race for an elective office. ~
Ben Brown. OF Vale. the present
sheriff. has announced his candidacy
for reelection on the democratic
ticket. and up 10 date there is no
opposition. II has been the custom.
10 give officers two terms and that Is
probably why Ben is having a walk
over for the place. Ben is making
good as sheriff.

THE BOo3rER AND THE KILLER
Neariy every town has two classes
Of citizehs--the boosters and the Kill
ers Ail the world loves the former,
but even the devil snuns the latter.
BE a bOosterl
The booster lr known by everybody,
for he IS always doing and saying
something to push his town, and Its
people along He is the man who
makes the town. The killer is the
one who destroys It.
30 a boosterl
The booster never loses anything
by his boosting. He boosts other peo-
pie and other people boost him and
through this combination of hosting
great things are Accomplished. II is
only the killer who falls of his own
weight, OF his own words, OF his own
deeds.
BE a boosterl
The booster is like a ray of sun
shine on a cloudy day. lie bright
ems everything and everybody around
him. His geniality. his cheerfulness,
his energy and his good deeds breed
hope in the bosom OF despair. His
words and his acts aid others and en-
noble himself. But the killer only
kills-just kills. kills, killsl
BE boosterl
This town has many boosters, and
you all know them, you admire them.
you respect them. And your respect
is more precious TO the genuine boost
or than is your gold. 1t Is only the
killer who stands alone. without
friends, without hope for the future

There may be killer or two in this
town, hut we hope not. But II there
are any we hope they will cease kill
ing and 20 TO boosting. There is no
honor or profit In killing. but there

ing.

We need the boostor-we need
more boosters. But we can exist
handsomely without the killer. for
the killers principal diversion in life
is TO take u knock at the town, at its
people. at their ways, and at every
thing aud everybody connected there
with-except the killer.
BE a boosterl
II there are any killers In this
town let's convert them. 80 we can all
be boosters. The booster Is OF value
to every legitimate thing with which
he comes In contact, while the killer
Is not even OF value 10 himself
Heaven loves a booster-and hell
