vincing and eloquent, and is
often called upon for addresses
upon public occasions.
Perhaps no better estimate OF
! Mr.. Deniston can be had than
that furnished by the Bayfield,
papers, which by the way are as
far apart as possible in politics,
but are united in the opinion that
Deniston is the man needed at
Madison next winter, as the fol-
lowing quotations show.
"Given opportunity of obtain
ing in the State Assembly so
creditable a representative as
Gilbert w. Deniston would be.
the Republican voters of Bay
field county will indeed be short
sighted if they fail of nominating
him in the primary of September
9Th. In reasoning capabilities
in forensic power, in ability to
work, in Discrimination to play
petty politics, in desire to serve
his district and his section of the
state--in every point that counts
and makes a legislator truly
worth while, Mr.. Deniston
measures head and shoulders
above the average member.
Given place in the Assembly he
will stand in the front rank with
the leaders. And his leadership
will be clean and unselfish. The
county's voters ought not to lose
this chance for securing man OF
that caliber as their repre-
sentative. "--Bayfield Progress.
"Mr. Deniston is one of the
prominent figures in the COM
munity where he resides. He is
a man of education, an eloquent
speaker, and able writer and a
successful business man. AS a
practical farmer he knows what
problems the settler in the new
country has to meet, and what
assistance the state might
profitably give him in the
struggle to clear and develop his
land. In taxation and public
finance Mr.. Deniston has been
specially interested and will no
doubt be influential in shaping
legislation on those subjects.
"Clean cut, earnest, progress
i've, bound to no clique or fac
ton, with the public interest
always in mind, Gilbert w.
Deniston appears to his neigh
bors to be the ideal man for the
Assembly. That opinion is
spreading throughoutthe county
and will be registered by a de-
cisive vote at the primary next
month. Bayfield, County Press.
