The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1920-10-15

Old time tonics, drugs and
stimulantS have only acted like
a whip to a tired horse and left
them more Tagged out and run
down than ever. and were it not
for the more recent discoveries
OF modern Science. many such
man or woman might easily go
down to the failure and defeat
which follow in the train OF ill
health. But in certain raw vege-
tables and grains eminent med
ical authorities have at last
found certain life-giving, health
building substances called vita
mines, which seem to represent
Natures long-hidden secret for
helping to build nerve force,
physical energy and keen, active
minds.
In the words of DR.. John J. Ru

the University Of Baltimore:
1T is safe TO state that nine out
of every ten people in this coun-

For County Treasurer

EO1 NOuAty AACtSSuASA
J. r. Jensen is one of the pioneers
Of Burke county and probably has
suffered as many hardships due to
pioneer life as any man in the coun-
ty. He came here 18 years ago and
filed on homestead in Lucy town
ship and has farmed and raised
stock there since that time. His
place is located just about half way
between Powers Lake and Coteau,
and naturally he has been compelled
to undergo many inconvenlences
that would not be necessary had he
lived nearer the railroad. Mr.. Jen-
sen was born at Brownsville, Mimi,
and later moved to Madison. S. D.,
where he lived rntil he moved to
Burke county Is years ago. He
received his education in public
schools at Madison and attended
the Normal School in that city for
two terms. He later took up a
business course at a. business college
at Sioux. Falls, s. d., and taught
school for six terms. AT one time
he owned about section Of land in
Lucy township. but he has been sort

CLARK STITT
For Clerk of District Court

Mr.. Stitt is the only candidate
for county office in Burke county
that is an ex-service man, having
served during the recent world war.
During his several years residence
in Burke county he has been en-
ployed at farm work, and he has
always taken great interest in
everything pertaining to the farm.
He has a common school education,
completed business course, and is
in every way we'll fit to perform
the duties of the office Of clerk of
court of Burke county in an econ
omical and efficiens manner. He
is one of the oldest members of the
Nonpartisan League, and has al
ways been an ardent booster for
this organization. He is well
versed in both county and state at
fairs. having spent all his spare
time during the winter months in
reading up on matters pertaining
to the league, and the farmers of
the state. and we feel that he is a
man that would be perfectly at
home in any office at the court
house that he might be put into.
He is unusually bright, can be
trusted anywhere at any time, and
we do not hesitate to recommend
him to the voters of the county for
the Office he was endorsed for.

Mr.. Negaard is president Of the

and prior to his election to this

he was a farmer and as tiller of
the soil he made a big success. 1t
is needless for us to tell our, read
ers anything about his education
and business ability, as the fact
that his neighbors and friends who
know him best put him in the high
est position possible in their bank,
and this should prove without any
question his reputation as busi-
ness man where he is best known.

Of the strongest boosters for the
Powers, Lake Farmers Club ever
since this club was organized. He
joined the Nonpartisan League when
this organization was first started,
and since then has been a tireless
worker for the cause it represents.
He has always been ready and will
ing to sacrifice his own time and
money for anything that might be
of benefit to the farmers of the
county. and has quite a reputation
as such worker. AS far as his edu-
cation is concerned we do not be-
lieve there is candidate for county
Office on any ticket that can go him

close student of every subject that
he took an interest in, and when
elected we believe tnat Burke coun-
ty can boast of as capable a register
OF deeds as there is in the state.
ANDREW NELSON
For Sheriff E, Il.
1t is quite generally admitted
that Andrew Nelson of Flaxton is
about the strongest candidate the
league has running for county Of
fee in Burke county. lie was born
on May 81, 1875 in Norway. and
spent his boyhood days there. He
immigrated to the United States in
1894 and first settled down at
Bloomer, Wis, where he engaged in
farming. In 1899 when the new
settlers first started arriving here he
filed on a homestead near Flaxton,
and had been farming there since
that time until last fall when he
rented the place out. and is now liv-
ing in Flaxton. Mr.. Nelson has a
common school education, Is man
of sound judgment. quick thought,
and is held in the highest Of esteem
by people all over the county where
he is known. He has all the quail
ifications necessary which peculiarly
fit him for the Office for; which he.
was endorsed, and we doubt if q
better man could be secured for, the
place anywhere. He was among
the first farmers of the county to
Join the Nonpartisan. League, and
has been an ardent booster for the
league, ever since then. He gained
consid iderable rolnin nence several
years ago when he was among the
first farmers of the county to start
raising sheep here on a large scale,
and also last fall when he assisted
County Agent Edwards in buying
several carloads of sheep in Montana
for resale to the farmers Of Burke
county. He is a married man and
has three children. ),
