CLAYTON TALKS TO THE PEOPLE
Lyman M. Clayton is a plain lkeabe man. Genial, good natured.
Is everybodys friend He is the sort who stands high with the home
folks and he is at home all over the county.
Mr.. Clayton is a candidate for county assessor, an office in which
he served with great satisfaction to the people. He has a statement,
an answe rather, in this issue which voters and taxpayers will read
with interest. If his opponents wish to compare work he is ready.
Before voting for clerk of court voters should consider the quail
fcaions of Frank A. Schmidt He is quiet, unassuming, not much Of
a campagner but he is strongly recommended by his associates and is
a high class man in every way, thoroughly equipped to do the work
of the office
The senatorial battle between Walton and Ryder is waxing warm

submitted without argument, by us. 1t takes a good fight to get voters
walked up
The voters have plenty of material from which to pick two state
representatives. Beginning down the line and coming toward home there
are John Marckle, Lanark; Geo. A. James, Culbertson; Lucy Curran
Poplar; M. P. Trenne, Poplar; julius Cess, Volt; Chas. D Taylor
Benrud. Cess is the Farmers Union candidate in the west end and
should u strong.
For treasurer there is Dwight LOhn, for county superintendent
Margaret Inglhart, and for surveyor G. L. Armvee. All incumbents of
these offices and considered faithful, efficient and, what is much more
important, ECONOMICAL. We cheerfulIy endorse them and predict
their nomination.
county. Henry Lowe has made a good sheriff in his first term He is
active and gets some of the bad ones to plead guilty so they do not
have to be convicted. But there is John W. Moran, also a candidate
equipped with a lot of experience in the early days of the county,
and plenty of ability, and personality plus.
Personally W e may have to take a Democratic ballot in order to
vote for Charlie Gordon for j. P.
The state campaign also offers some interesting contests. Nc
Cormack and Hazelbaker make up the field for governor. Two wonder
full men to meet. Mccormack of Kaispen trains with the Progressive
crowd.
R. c. Liney Linebarger looks like a governor all ready, so he would
surely do a. a First Lieut..
1t is out inside opinion that a change is needed on the public SER
vice commission. Hartley, Stevens, Gilbert and Goodman are candidates
and none of them O the commission. Vote for one.
Two places to fill on the state supreme bench. The terms ors S.
c. Ford and Albert !. Galen expire. Both IRE candidates for reelection
and are opposed by Albert Anderson of Billings and Miles Cavanaugh
of Butte. All but Mr. Cavanaugh recently called at this office and are
unusually pleasant to meet In fact they affirmed several of our
opinionS Justice Ford is serving his first term and most certainly
deserves to be returned. Miles Cavanaugh, running for the same office
for the fifth time, has never yet landed in the money.
Also recently met F. E. Williams, now state treasurer but not
eligible to another term, and a candidate for secretary of state. His
record is one of high efficiency and economical management.

one of the finest young men you could hope to meet Born o n a ranch
near Chinook raised and educated in Montana. Plenty of business
training, including some in the state treasurers office. Prominent in
the American Legion. Best of all he is a nephew of Senator jim
Griffin of Chinook, one of the salt of the earth.
In McCone county and the 18th district there is a neat race for dis
