Cjilvin A Wilson died at his
home in this city Aug 16th after
a three weeks illness of typhoid
fever Aged 20 years 11 months
and 25 day°
Cal as he was familiarly known

plary habits and had a host of
friends he was of high ambitions

nigh 'standard of education having
just recently recieved his diploma

that of any other officer and their I paper was an intimate acquaint
'pay less very few men are fitted tnnee of this young man and we
for this office and as a man to fill j know that he had a lofty ideal for
this position must be above all his future and that he had the
flatteries and cajoliies must be of j courage the honesty and the abil-
iron will and determination and ity to hive accomplished themand
mu'-t not be tied to or have en-Jwe feel that the wot Id has losj

M by llev Young and $diss
Florence Smith after which he
was laid away in Taloga Cemetery
The funeral and burial were
ittended by a large concourse of
his friends all anxious to pay this
meeting of the board and to him J last tribute of respect to one who
more than any one else is attri
the success with which the county
a ffaiis have been conducted the
past term To him more than
any one else is attributed the fact
that during his term of office that
ttxcs have been reduced from 29
nulls to 18 mills and also that
there has been more bridges built
built during this term than dur
ing any previous one and yet the
present boitrd has been the most
economical 6f any past board He
has been tried and not found
wanting - He will be elected
In our nominee fol' the 2nd dis
John Chain we have a candidate
that has every qualification for a
good commissioner he bus made a
success of his own ventures he is
amply qualified to fill the duties
he has a ‘host of friends and is
known throughout his district pri
a man of known honesty7 integrity
and ability Though the district
has always been strongly repub
lican he stands a good chance of
election- '
In the third district we have
nominated Chas-II Cox a man
that is well and favorably known
throughout his entire district He
has every qualification neccessary
to make a good officer he is hon-
est and square and a man of ex
celient judgment be is the ownei
of a fine farm nnd has been - sue-
cessfull inhis calling of farmerand
auetioner- He is thoroughly acq-
uainted with all ports cf l?is dist-
rict and the needs of his people
he i -j conservative yet broad mind
ed enough to recognize the need of
spending money for good roods
and bridges and be will beyomri
all doubt be elected by a good big
majority j
NOTICE
ie Vofer3 of Dewey Omuty
was so universally loved and re-
spected ) v
A favorite quotation and one
often repeated by him seemed to
be his standard
“Solive that when thy sumjnons
comes to join the innumerable
caravan that moves to the pale
realms of shade where each shal
take his chamber in the silent
hallsof Death
Tlfou go not like a quarry slave
afiiight scourged to his 'dungeon
But sustained und soothed by an
unfaltering trust approach thy
grave like one who wraps the
draperies of couch about him unc
lies down to pleasant dreams”
geniu&JWhat wonderful things has
this great ‘I atn done- except to
attend the republican conventions
and ret there as meek a a mouse?
One thing ho has done is to figh
tho1 adoption of the constitution
in his newspaper hut did not hav
the manhood to answer a singleque
tion put to him by the democratic
press when they asiccd him to state
u'single clause that was wrong
Now gentleman) as you are pro
bably honest in this belief tha
your candidate is the simon pure
boiled down extract of all that is
good and great and us we believe
the people ought' to know the
truth of this matter Me ask
you to pi’oduce your evidence
to show that this man Smith is the
be?t man for the place That the
people may know thee two men
that they alone may judge of their
fitness and qualifications We
ask you to let' Mr Smith moot
Mr Jones and that they enter in
to a joint discu-ion on the issues
before the pei pie at as many
places nnd as often as you like
Dates and rules to be arranged
by the Democratic and republican
central committees We believe
we hae the best man for the place
We believe he is the best q mini-
fied and better' fitted man
to represent the people of Dewey
County than his opponent and we
believe the people have a right to
know it Let the people see them
together let them hear them and
let them decide this question You
have made your brags now make
them good
