OUR TICKET.

We believe that the list Of gentle
men selected by the Democratic par
ty will appeal strongly to the con-
sentative citizens oc the county who
are now more interested in the bet
torment of public conditions than in
partisan politics.
For Representative J. II. (Rau-
seaul Weller. is one of our most
prominent farmers. and while maxi
ing a success of his own affairs, has
been very active and liberal in adj
vancing the cause Of farmers and la
borers, contributing mstintingly, Of
his time and means. With a head full
of "hoss" sense and practical busi-
ness knowledge backbone as big
as q telephone pole (and almost as
long)-with the best interests Of the
county Mt heart-he will serve with
credit to the county if elected to this
important Office.
l.. B. Tichcnor, the nominee for
County Judge. has made the agricul-
tural interests 2 sTecial stud,; IS en-
terprisint, conservative and practic-
al in all public affairs. and has the
exceptional ability and energy so
necessary to a successful adminstra-
ton.

portunity is given the people to have
for their advocate one of the ablest
lawyers in the State. as well as one
who takes the deepest interests in
everything for the improvement Of
the county and its citizenship.
For the important office Of Sheriff
il would be hard to find q better
qualified o. a more suitable man
than g. +. Bud Bennett. whose
honesty integrity. fairness and
spuaroncss arc conceded on all sides.
T. goes without saying that if in
trusted with this Office he viii serve

The election Of GUY T.. Robertson
to the office Of County Clerk would
not only mean the duties would be
performed faithfyllv aud capably,
but it would be a stimulus and en-
couIa"cmcnt to him and other young
men who are thrown upon their own
resources and prepare themselves for
public service. From the humble
log cabin on the farm Guy Robertson
has, by the dint of hard ticks be-
come very thorough in his business
education and possesses exceptional
qualifications for this office
Ozra Shuts record as Superin-
tcndcnt, together with his standing
as q citizen and bis devotion to
school interests, guarantee the very
highest degree Of efficiency if he is
reelected TO this Office
TO have charge Of the Jail and 9TH
en- public buildings, the nominee,

o D. NJ. Melvin Stewart. our can
didatc for Assessor, is a capable,
energetic citizen with all the neces-
sary qualifications for the duties of
the office.
For Magistrate. ]. Y. Hager-
man, in the Hartford district;
r. c. Tichenor. Centertown;
Ben w TAYLOR, in Bartletts: |. II.
Keoau. in Forisvillo and J. L.
Smith, in Sulphur Springs, are all
good men. By reason Of the fact
that each Justice is a member Of the
Fiscal Court. unusual interest is be-
ing taken in these races.
From top to bottom we have a
ticket made M Of clean men, who
have been selected without the least
suspicion Of fraud, combination or
corruptive influences, and they go TO
all the people with no apologies or
eXrls nations as to their title to the
nomination. and will command the
earnest support Of host Of voters
outside the party lines. So be it.
