n FREEHoLDERs

For ~freeholders the Republicans have renominated Louis j.
BelloH and Clarence NJ. Haight. The record of the Board of Free
holders for the past few years is well known. The Democrats have
offered Edward ]. OConnor and James j. Flynn. The Republican
comfy organization is turning heaven and earth to land their two
men for another term. The board is sohdly Republican now and
they do not want it broken. 1t rests entirely with the people
The election is an important one in every respect and every
voter should 90 to the polls and perform his and her duty as a citi
zen. It lies within the power of the people to elect whomsoeyer they
will If they are determined enough about 1t. Tins Is the very

CHOOSING THE SURROGATE

The surrogate has no business being in politics. Here is an
office that deals most intimately with the people. The present in
cumbent is John P. kirkpatrick, Of New Brunswick, who is filling
out the unexpired term Of Daniel w. Clayton. He is a lawyer and
has the advantage of such experience as he has gained since taking
up the work. 1t can hardly be expected, however, that he will
give his entire time to the position as he would not care to give up
a lucrative law practice. On the other hand, Charles Forman, the
Republican candidate, who is a capable man in every respect
promises to give all of his time to the office and there is every rea-
son to believe that he will. The idea should be to get a good MN
in the place and keep him there. The office of surrogate is no place
for a politician.

"BABY" NEWSPAPER

This, the first number of Kevin S
first newspaper, is smaller in size
than it's editor would like and lots
smaller than the actual size and im-
portance of the town and territory
warrant, so an explanation is in
order. "Time and tide wait for no
man." and neither does the progress
of a town liquid gold is found on
it's very borders Thus while wait
ing the arrival of complete print
ing plant and the erection of suit
able home of its own, The Courier
is compelled to appear baby" size.
The field, the town and the latter's
enterprising business men need a
means of publicity now and by the
kindness of Editor E. R. Holderby
of the Sweet Grass Advocate we are
able to serve such need in our pre-
sent form until established. This
arrangement and the present size
of the Courier will be only for
few issues when the paper will be

foot of the bench and the bench
land has been staked for resi-
dental purposes. There are also
four additional blocks for business
purposes to the south and west of
the old plat The lots are 53x14O
feet, ideal size for all business or
building purposes.
Another 80 acres to the south,
tract formerly owned by Art Lewis,
is included in the addition plans but
it not having been finally surveyed
and staked it could not be fieled with
that now opened, but will be in a
short time.
Mr.. Genger and his associates have
completed an office building north of
the Campbell office and are now sat
home" there to all seeking one of
the most promising investments in
town lots probably ever offered in
the state.
