friends in Howard and Winneshiek

Gilbertson, the present incumbent
has no opposition, and he too will
be returned by big vote.
i The county ticket is made up of as
good a list of candidates tor the
various otf.c as ever went before
the voters here, and there is not
a candidate on the ticket who is not
entitled to the unqualified support
of every republican in the county.
For county auditor Clarence r.
Severson is the candidate. He Is
a young man Of excellent quail flea
tons, born in the county in Spring
field township, and he win make an
efficient and obllging official fol
Winneshiek. He has met w tn en-,
couragement from every side and
will be awarded big and safe
majority.
For county treasurer, Mr. c. p
Seim is up for reelection and We

manner that will reflect credit, no.
only on himself but the entire coun'
