I have been a tcsldeiit of Tuster County Hlnce 1881 and respectfully solicit your support. Jut.itm IOrttiM. . Two cousecutive terms in an office is enough. Tb.de are too many good men. The fact that a man has been a long and consistent worker in the Republican ranks docs not entitle him to a life-lease on an oflicc. The people do not get the ser vice they deserve when a man comes to feel that he has a "cinch" on an oflicc and consequently quently a change of men is often a good thing. A party is indebted to a man only so long as he continues to reflect credit on it and contribute to its strength and standing among all of the people. When you neglect to support W. II. Osbornc for county clerk , you not only neglect your own interests , but your neighbors as well , for there is no better man for the place. Oconto Register. A. J. Van Antwerp's training and qualifications fit him for the best county surveyor Custer county ever had , and that's going some , but it's the truth. Oconlo Register. In another column will be found the announcement of N. Dwight Ford for the nomination for county judge. Mr. Ford is a stranger to us , but he is highly recommended by those who know him. Oconto Register. N. D. Ford , of Ansley , was in the city Saturday for the Repub lican county convention. Mr. Ford is making an active cam paign as a candidate for county judge and is making a great many friends wherever he goes , lie is recognized as a man of energy and ability. During the last week favor able comments on the Republi can's article concerning A. R. Humphrey have come to the notice of the editor. These come from all over the county and in dicate that the rank and file of the Republicans agree with the sentiment expressed in the arti cle. Garland Lewis , candidate for the nomination for county super intendeut , was greeting the voters in Oconto Wednesday. This office was remembered with a friendly call. Mr. Lewis is a fine young man , and is perfectly competent for that office. If you want to support the right man for superintendent , don't fail to vote for him. Oconto Hegister. In this issue appears the an nouncement of the candidacy of Garland Lewis for the nomina tion for county superintendent. He is a man well fitted , both by education and practical experi ence as a teacher in both rural and village schools , one of which was spent as principal of the Merna schools. He has a college education and holds a profes sional state certificate , lie also pledges himself if elected to put his entire efforts to the school interests of Custer county and to treat all alike. Merni Postal Card. Many people have wondered why the county option plank in the Republican platform adopt ed by the county convention last Saturday was not included in the report to the state papers of the resolutions adopted. This county option resolution was drawn up oy County Attorney Gddd and was passed as a sub stitute for the anti-saloon reso lution reported by the resolu tions committee of which Judge Humphrey was a member. A copy of the committees resolu tions was given to the reporter for the dailies by Mr. Humph rey with 110 intimation that they had been amended or changed in any way. Will Judge Humph rey please explain bis action in th's matter ? Did he desire that the people of the state should not know that the Republicans of this county stand for county option or what was his object ? Under the new law the party primaries will be held August 17 , 1'JO'J , and candidates are be ginning to bob up everywhere. Many good men are in the field. Among them is one of whom we feel that it is our duty to sup port , as he is both qualified and deserving of the office for which he aspires and that man is Geo. Porter. Mr. Porter asks of the Repub lican voters of Custer county the nomination for the office of Reg ister of deeds. Mr. Porter is a pioneer of Cus ter county and is recognized as a Mason City boy. His character is unquestion able and as far as competency is concerned he has served the past four years as deputy in this office and no more capable man is in the race for the office. He lias always been identified as a staunch Republican and as this is the first time he has been a candidate for office , his request for your support is a just one. In making out your list of can didates for the coming primary don't neglect to investigate the merits of this man and he will surely be your choice on Aug. 17. Mason City Star. Sonic Facts About Lincoln. The following statement of facts is vouched for by one of the temperance workers of Lin coln. They show that a city as large as Lincoln may prosper without saloons. "Since the saloons were voted out of Lincoln the city is pros pering as never before. There are more houses build ing than in the same months of last year. There are more real estate sales. There is more demand for houses to rent. There is not an idle laboring man in Lincoln and the contrac tors arc needing more men. 'Ihe merchants are having bet ter trade , and collections are better than ever belore. The deposits in the Savings banks have increased over a thousand dollars a day ever since the saloons closed. The clearing house reports show the banks are doing twenty-two per cent more busi ness than last year. There are fewer people in the jails , and there are few arrests for drunkenness mostly men who get drunk at Havelock. The city has a cleaner look and a cleaner smell , and four- fifths of the people arc proud that it is dry.
