THE PIE EATERS.
The voice of the democratic ma
chine would convoy to thin enlight
ened public that the republican can
didates are the public “pie eaters" of
the age. Let us look into this mat
ter and sift the wheat from the chaff.
George Keichere, candidate for
treasurer, has been a resident of the
county for forty odd years and has
NEVER held an elective office.
Roy Daggett, is an old resident of
the county, and in the past year lias
seen more hard luck than any man
within her border, and lias NEVER
aspired for an office. Even at this
time it. took the combined efforts of
numerous friends to get him into
the race.
A. R. Scott, candidate for county
judge, lias NOT held a county office
lor twelve years.
It has been ten yeurs since W. P.
Fergus was sheriff of this county,
and we never had n bettor or more
conscientious official.
F. M. ltoss was born In tills coun
ty nearly forty years ago and lias
NEVER held an elective office. Four
years as register of deeds would not
spoil him.
When the republican party selected
Albert Sargent as their candidate,
they were not looking for a smooth
politician—If so, they made a poor
choice. Hut they did select a man
who has always taught a good school
and would make a capable county
superintendent. This is the first time
he hits over .been before the people
asking their franchise.
Dr. G. W. Reneker lias held so
many Inquests over the democratic
defeat, and does it so nicely and
kindly, that even the opposition
would not do without him in the ca
pacity of coroner.
Now let us look at the other side
of this picture:
John 11. Hutchings lias NEVER
LET LOOSE since lie got Ills first
“toe hold," some ten years ago, on
the county board. From there lie
tumbled into tlu> county clerk’s of
fice and lias held that four years.
.ll.it'
How be would smile one of those
smiles that “never rubs off" if the
voters would give him a pull at the
treasurer’s office for about four years.
He would then lie ready to join ills
landed interests in another state,
where he is planting every dollar In
can save from his public salary, and
be in perfect form to serve the dear
people there until the end of time,
if necessary.
George W. Morris never lias been
able to get further with tlu* machine
than a deputyshlp, which lie lias held
for two terms in the treasurer’s
office; also one term under the
Wyatt administration. The mnehtm
tried to shake him for the nomina
tion tills time, but he wouldn’t stand
tied.
Judge Gagnon lias presided over
the county court so long that the
democratic machine think Pontius
Pilate's overcoat would not make him
a vest and justice could not be met
ed out unless lie be continued at tin
helm another twelve years.
W. T. Fenton lias had four years as
sheriff and applies for another.
L. C. Edwards has been recorder
of deeds for four years and would
make it eight if the voters of tin
county are willing.
T i Oliver has been -.upcrlnU ud
ent of the schools for two terms and
could stand another without produc
ing heart failure.
Dr. M. L. Wilson makes his first
appearance before the public in coun
ty affairs, but as lie was mayor of
Humboldt one term, we think that
sufficient public burden, for a time at
least.
The voter can carefully scan the
record of the two tickets and con
clude who is the chronic office seek
er.
THE MACHINE.
The voice of the democratic machine
is long on personal abuse, but short
on logic or facts, when pointing to
the republican party in this county.
Never, since the organization of the
republican party in the county, has
it been so free from bossism or vin
dictive strife for leadership as at
the present time.
On the other hand the collar has
been worn so long at the voice ken
nel that the agent of the democratic
system in this county could not
bark without it. When the boss told
him Gagnon would be nominated,the
bouquets were thrown that way, and
Mr. James was given to understand
that he was a presumptuous mortal
i *
•o attempt such ami act at this lime.
A democratic aspirant at Dawson was
"nipped in the bud" and told that
tie* die was * a^i and that he would
have to wait. Another one of the
faithful at Shubert was told tliat the
old K1U1R were NOT THROUGH with
i the court house yet; ills turn would
come later.
When politics are titus manipulat
ed by half a dozen men in the eoun
iy, if the public can be convinced by
>l.e voice that a democratic machine
does not exist, tie- man who lias worn
the collar so many years will have
accomplish a wonderful feat.

Retiring farmer, if you are contemplating leaving the farm
don’t make a mistake by going to some little village and
putting your money into the kind of home you deserve. If
you should make this mistake, when you want to sell you
could not sell it for as much as the lumber cost, and you have
no advantages in the village, Come to Falls City, as it is
not only a city of 4,000 people, but it is the county seat of
one of the best counties in the state, where all the count\'s
business must be transacted. With fine schools of highest
grade, and churches of most all denominations, where there
are high-class lectures and entertainment, and where prop
erty of all. kinds is advancing. There is not a farmer who
came to this eitv and boindit pronertv who has not made
money by so doing, and you can do the same by buying
