He m a almost tlie unanimous choice of (Iw republican convention for that position and has been making a cam palgn which promises remarkable re* •u its Mr. Johnson Is a pioneer and has grown up w ltii Kalispell and the Flathead. He is a man of splendid judgment, versatile and able to value property as i t should be, satisfactor lly to tlie taxpayers as well as the board of equalization, any property: list (landed in by Jack Johnson, may be expected to stand all Investigation unaltered. GRANDPA SWANEY Hugh Swaney, the present public administrator, is accorded the confll. dence of every citizen of Flathead county. Ills previous adininistra. tlons of estates in this county have always won the highest of praise. Mr. Swaney excercises the utmost care and discretion in the settlement of claims against the estates of the dead, w ith due consideration for tlie living heirs. I t is almost a Joke for anyone to attem p t to run against him and his majority will include and be swelled by a large democratic vote. THE CORONER Not all of tis require the services of this official, but we are glad and proud of having a man on the job who is fearless and capable. It is more or less gratifying to know that the blame for death and disaster will be properly placed upon the right shoulders, regardless of “pull,” and it is J. E. Waggener, the republican candidate for reelection who can thus be depended upon. JOHN E. WHITE In these piping political times, while the big talk is for tlie legislative ticket, the importance of the county commissioners office should not be overlooked. Wr. John E. White, whom the republicans honored with a I C a n d i d a t e F o r C o u n t y C o m m i s s i o n e r T h e m a n w h o h a s s t o o d f o r P o i s o n a n d t h e r e s e r v a t i o n , w h o s e o f f i c i a l a c t s s t a n d a s p r o o f o f a “ s q u a r e d e a l ” f o r t h i s e n d o f t h e c o u n t y .

While this is a strong resson why Mr. White should be reelected and assured of the confidence of tlie people whom he has so ably defended, it is also the cause of a strong and determined fight being made against- him by \tlie Interests”. Mr. White has always been found, In his four yiars service, favoring the cause of the masses against the classess. Whatever his vote commissioners session Is recorded It will be found to be on tlie right side, though not always on tiie suc cessful one. Mr. White is carefull and conscientious in all public duty and in private life. He has been tried and found true to llie trust imposed in him. In the various matters of jjol wm wtanding the many counter county government which are official attractions and sundry otlier elements campaign, but'an attack of rheuma* tlsiu lias laid him by, the last week, He will be out among us again, how* ever, in the closing week of the cam* paign. Oh, dear to my heart, Is the old opeu transom; The transom that punked all the greenbacks on me. That surely was handsome—that juicy old transom, That comes from tlie past and is beckoning me. Once more to the bucket —The grafter’s own bucket. There's loot In the bucket That hangs in the well —The Kerosene well.’! DIXON AT KALISPEL duties, Mr. White uscsdlscrimiualhn and good judgment. In road building and brldge.building is notably in t he front, and lirmly convinced that the future of the county depends greal ly upon the convenience of transporta tion afforded by -good roads and bridges to the market towns. Mr- White has every assurance that lie will lie re-elected and Is pledged to an administration wliicli will be as satis factory in the future as it has beeii In the past. COUNTY ATTORNEY Jess Stevens, within two months of graduation al tlie Drake Law Univer sity, Iowa, 1898 became imbued with the martial spirit and joined tlie 50th Iowa Volunteers. After the Spanish American War Mr. Stevens was ad mitted by the Iowa supreme court, aiid the Montana supreme court re cognized him in 1901. lie has also been admitted to practice in the U. S. district and circuit courts. M r. Stev ens has made his living by the prac tice of law for the past ten years. He liad clients and cases sufficient to support a wife and family, long before he became county attorney. lie has knowledge of practical operation of law which has been greatly increased during liis official term. Opposed to him is Mr. Stout, admitted to the bar one month before his nomination by tlie democrats and before he ever tried a case in court. Can tlie taxpayers expect much of an untried attorney, and will they feel justified in entrust ing the very important details of the county attorney’s office, to amateur hands? Hardly! SHERIFF HODGE Reports from all over the county in dicate tliat Gene Ilodge is running strong for sheriff. Gene is a man with many friends, courageous, strong and hearty, and is handicapped by no blemishes of previous office-holding affiliations, llo expects all the repub lican votes, which will laud him with several hundred majority. THE SURVEYOR Ilarry P. Walters, expects to be elec ted county surveyor. U e lias been | running correct lines for the settlers. in l'lathead Valley for the past eight years, and his work stands as liis re commendation. Mr. Walters was quite active for himself and the rest of Uie republican ticket, earlier in the tliat usually prevent the ordinary mortal from attending p:ilftical meet ings on Saturday nigliis, Senator Dix on faced an eager assemblage In Kalispell Iasi, Saturday that fairly taxed the capacity of the McIntosh Opera House. The Senator Uid u r o e liis hearers the work of Congies bringing about the tariff, railroad reg ulation and other important reform legislation. The effect of tl,e I,'®re^ ' ed cost of living was also one:1kJ l> on: (he senator in this hi. « Introducing valuable testimony show ing the increased purchasing pontr of the produceof the fanner. Altogether Mr. Dixon’s address was one that will he remembered by those who heard it. Montana’s junior represen-, tative in the United States Sena e , has lost none of his former brilliun >, as an interesting and convincing puD-i lie speaker. Honorable E. M. Hutchinson on this ocasslon added fresli lustre to Ills fast growing popularity as an orator, and distinguished himself as a presiding officer of marked ability His introductory address is given here in full: “Ladies and Gentlemen:— When I tell you frankly that I had not expec ted to see such an audience here to night, you will be able to appreciate to some slight degree, the difficulty with which 1 am struggling in a vain endeavor to thank you for changing these expectations of mine into agree able disappointment. Tlie duty Imposed upon my un worthy self as presiding officer on this occasion, renders it imperative that my remarks be brief as possible. Dur- Ing the campaign it has been the de sire of the local Itepubllcan Committee that tlie important Issues at stake in this campaign be placed before you in manner not only interesting and pleasing but also comiiiclng. To t hat end you have beeu given an opportu nlty of listening to Mr. Carter and Mr. Pray. These gentlemen have laid before you a portrait of your Un cle Sam In action, and given you, fel low citizens, a glimpse of the work demanded of the man behind tlie gun; not only al Washington, fellow citizens but at the seal of government in every city, county aud state lu America. I need hardly say . to you that the State of Montana bus no fear of being called derelict In her duty as an active participant in tlie affairs of this great commonwealth of States. The people of Montana may well feel proud of tlie type of citizens from which to rccruil a public servant that in any crisis cau be found equal to any and all occasions; aud, fellow citizens, the Republican party has contributed t he best of these recruits. (Applause) If any encouragement were needed to spur Ihe Republicans of Flatliead county to keep contributing the liest type of citizen for tlie work of govern ment, yotfr presence here this evening were encouragement indeed. That you may lind conviction, not only in our sincerity, but in our abil ity to keep the good work going, to keep producing the mau behind tlie gun, let me present to you one of the best recruits we ever had-one t hat has made good, fellow citizens, ladles imd gentlemen, our Junior representa tive in tlie United States Senate,- Joseph M.
