' The peoplc know when they havc the right man in the r ght place. It is 1 s' fact that makes certain Judge Armour's reelection - tion by an increased tIlajQrity. lIc has no occasion to ! loose alY sleep over the result of the clec- tion on his own personal account. Those who met B. O. Hostet- tler in the city yesterday , were very favorably impressed with him. I e is a man of fine ap- pearal ce , genial , int lligent , able lawyer , strictty tempcrate , moral and very popular at home. Pnt his majority in the district at 1000. 'l'he public has fouud in G.V. . Dewey and his efficicnt deputy , Joe Pigman careful aud painstaking - taking officials every rcady to ; ccot1ltnodate their constitutents. More geni'al and accontIlodating men for le position thry occupy could 110t be desircd.Vatch for Mr. Dewey's increased majorities when the returns come in. F. E. VanAntwerp has but little - tle occasion to worry over his c ances , fQr rq-election. 1 e has as his competitor , the same Lamb he defeated two years ago , when 'there were less repu.bl.icans than thete are today. He has the advantage - vantage of a favorable reputation - tion as a civil engineer and an accommodating oOicial that he did not have before. The voters of the Fourth supervisors - ervisors . district . , are fQrtunate' in ' \ 'their candidate for supervisor on the repuqIican ticket. Mr. Klump lias long been identified with the northwest part of the ' , and his strength and. means . have . done . . much in its' . ' . developement. He is able and a. successful business man , and if ; lected will be a v l able member - ber of the county board. - _ . . The ta pay'ers know the difference - ence between collecting delin- quent taxes with ( istress warrants - rants and a PQrsonalletters. The letter plan may cost the treasur- er's oOice a little more , but it o.s . not pile up' ' sheriff mileage against t4e co nty and the in- dividuals. That is one of the reasons that the taxpayers will vote to ret ln V. George/in / the treasurer's office for another. . term. The Sixth district could , not well have found a man that' would fill the position of C01llIh ; ' Supervisor better than A. l\ond , the present candidat on the republican - publican ticket. His long reSIdence - dence in the vicinity of Oconto fully apprises him of the needs of that community. He is a man of fine business qualifications - . tions and is popular with his people. His ele tion is now practically assured. 'l'he republ ic' ; - - ere very fortunate this fall in selectilu" their candidates for connty - sup- ervisors. In the second district p. F. Christy of Round Valley , was the choice. He is well qual- , fied to fill the position from both an educational , and practical \Htsiness \ standpoint. It would have been a diOicuIt task to have made a sele tion from that district - trict that could have filled the position more intelligcntl.y. J. O.

' ! < ' ' ' culture , sobriety , in ustrioug :111 < 1 one who has given half of his tife in building up Custer count } ' . Y t there are those who seek to defamc his character simpl } ' to defeat his elcction.Vill the farmers of Custer county become a party to that kind of business by voting against one of their own class ? \ , li'or a number of years the dcmo-pop candidate for sheriff has beeu a mail contractor on the Star routes aud he has some of the best contracts in the county. It is claimed that Sheriff Armstrong - strong is a silent partner and. while his d puty rides the county Eli looks aftcr the mail drivers. Should "Uncle Charley" step into - to Eli's shoes , then .he will sit in the office while Eli rides the county. It is a very nice arrangement - rangement to be drawing from the county and Uncle Sam at the same time. Who couldn't build fine houses and buy and stock a fine ranch , with such a soft snap ? Hadn't we better pass it around ? Thc nomination of Jules Hau- m > nt for county assessor on the republican ticket was one of the best selections that could have been made for that office. It is a ncw oOice and it is a serious question with many whether it wiU be an improv.ement over the old plan. . To give the law a thorough trial it should be ex- ecut.ed by those who are thoroug- ly competant. It is an office where rank injustice could be practiced. But with Mr. Han- mont in charge the public is assured - sured that each one will have his rights protected as near as it is possible for him to do it. It wil" not be possible the first year to assess all property as it should be , as there are those who will be able to decd ve the assessor , th first year as they have the 'township assessors in the past , but most of these inaccuracies wiJl be overcome in the course of time.Ve predict for Mr. Haul - l ont a flattering vote. . Years before J. O. Taylor ever thought of being a candidate for office as a member of the count ) . board from Berwyn towns.hip , he made a record showing that he was opposed to licensing saloons. Can those who claim to be opposed - posed to him because he is not 'a tetotler show as clean a record for their cand date ? Mr. 'l'aylor : is not old enough to have been in the Civil \Var but his support of 'the government during his life i : tlte best evidence of his loyalty. : \Ve are aware that loyalt ) . : or disloyalty during the ; civil war is not an issue of this 'age , as all are loyato \ the 'government by force of circumstances - stances , if not other wise. But truth and honesty is just as much a factor today as it was in Bthe sixties and the friends of Mr. Richapl on who seek to manufacture - facture , evidence to defeat Mr. 'l'aylor will do wen to look about their own doors , lefore they commence - mence to make charges about Mr. 'ra , 'lor they can not substantiate - stantiate and that are not true. \Ve have studiously avoided personalities and shall continue to do so if the oppoRi tion will deal fairly with the republican candidates. But we do not intend - tend to play the coward amI see the character of any of the republican - publican candidates traduced by misrepresentation without resenting - senting it. . . - - - - - - 'l'he base falsehoods , the friends of C.

'fherc seems to be nothing too low for some of them to resort to in t11eir efforts to tro- duce his character. First they circulatcd a story that he came to Nebraska an escaped criminal from Mipnesota , and cha.nged his nanle from Olesen to 'l'aylor .tp prevent tletection. .

'fhey next circulated - I lated that he was a beer guzzler ant1 that he always kept it b ) ' the keg in his home. 'l'his was quietly . circulated among the temperance I people hoping to p. : > ison their ; minds against him. It was ! shown up that _ he not only does I not keep beer in his house , hut that he has not tasted a drop of beer for twent.y-eight years. 'l'hey put up another , a very nice schcme hy having a jug of whiskey - key shipped to his address. A number of the demo-pops were at the depot and saw thc jug and and the nathe of J. O. 'fay lor. How delighted tIle ) ' were ; yes now they had him. Imagine theIr chagrin when Mr. Taylor started an investigation to find who had ordered it and declined to take it from the depot. Mr. H.ichardson denies that be had an ) ' knowledge of either of the tric1s until after they were start- ed. J4et that be as it may , it shows the class of of people that are giving him support. If the voters of Custer county want tOI be represented by a man who stands for sobriety alHl respectability , a man whose word is as good as a bond , one who pa's his obligations with 100 cent dollars , a man who.se associates are among the better class of citizens , they will vote for J. O. Taylor for shp.riff. I1llutlllntlllotctler. ! The question of the comparative - tive fitness of Mr. Hand and Mr. Hostetler ha been seriously considered - sidered by The Democrat , and we unequivocally assert that 0 1r conclusions are that Mr. Hostet- ler should be elected judge of this Twelfth judicial district and we do not doubt he will be. . -Kearney Democrat.
