Marion Hinkle, the present
Sheriff of Monroe county, is nicely
fixed has two splendid farms, both well stocked. For a while he said he wouldn't take the second race, as the office didn't pay him enough to justify
him in neglecting his farms, but he was induced to make the race so that somebody else might have tbe
benefit of the office.
Newt. Mathers wants tbe office
because he desires to make a living for his family.
He is poor ha owns no big
farms nor fat steers.
The friends of Mr. Hinkle vir
tually say : "Mathers is too poor to
I hold the office of Sheriff it must
go to a man who is already well
fixed."
In other words : "No poor man
need apply."
Hasn't Mr. Hinkle had enough?
Let the poor- men of Monroe
county show their strength at the
polls.
Remember to vote for Fuller,
next Tuesday, and in the meantime do what you can to forward bis interests. He is a genial gentleman and will do you a favor in return whenever opportunity offers. Gaston, the crippled soldier, is the man you should vote for when it conies to Treasurer. He is a quiet, unassuming gentleman, and will not disappoint you in the administration of the office. The Democrats have no hope of electing tbeir entire ticket, and
so have determiued to concentrate
their efforts upon two or three can
didatea. It is their avowed inten
tion to let a portion of the ticket go and work for the remainder. Re
publicans should understand this
and act accordingly.
The D-amocrats are embolden
ed and encouraged by the fact that
they have a President, a Congress
man, Senator and Representative,
and will make a bold dash for the county offices. They must not be
permitted to come iuto our fold, as 'twere, and carry off our lambs. No, no ; the are wolves in mens'
clothing, and must be treated as
such.
Why not support Newt. Mathers heartily ? Newt, is one of the best fellows in the county he is
jolly accommodating and kind to
all. His oppouents are trying to
beat him because he is poor and
unfortunate in business. The question is: "Will you vote against
him because he is poor and Mr,
Hinkle is the owner ot fine farms
and fat stock ?"

The following were the official majorities in Monroe couuty in 1S84:
Newt. Mathers is one of the
best known men in Monroe county.
He is genial, good-humored, always has a pleasant word for every
body, and desires to be elected Sheriff.
Some of the workers for Marion Hinkle have found out something awful about him, however : . They say he is o poor man ! They say that he has been unfortunate in business and hence ought to be defeated. It is very unhandy to be poor,
but we never before knew it was a
crime. Capt. Mathers has one consola
tion in his poverty : he has plenty
of company.
There are manv thousands of
poor men in Monroe county, and if
they vote against Newt. Mathers
they virtually say by their votes
that a poor man has no right to run
for an office in Monroe county.
See that every sick and negli
gent voter is brought out next Tues
day. It will be one of the desper
ate political fights of the century.
aud the Democrats, having already
an officer in the court house, will
spare no endeavor to get more there
You must be alert, Republican vot ers.
Simpson Lowe of Lawreuce
county is the Republican candidate
for District Prosecutor. He is an
able Lawyer, a fine speaker, and
man of rare energy and force of
character, a here is no reason why he should not be elected over his
Democratic opponent by a sound
majority, and he will be.
Look out for all manner of
stories, schemes and circulars on the day before the election. Tbe Democrats declare their intention of makiug a desperate effort to cap
ture the offices of the county, and
as they cannot do it by fair means,
they will resort to means the
most foul. Be on your guard.
-Some of the Democratic candi
dates conceived the idea that it
would be a shrewd stroke of policy
to send copies of tho Courier to Republicans in order that they might be influenced to vote the Democrat
ic oountv ticket. It is slated that
in every case the opposite effect has
been the result. Several Republi
cans who bad been restless and un
certain have been so much disgusted by the Courier's baseless stories
that they have declared their intentiqn to vote the ticket straight and vork for its success with more than their old-time energy. Send
out more copies of tbe Courier.

Progress desires to tell Messrs. Sudbury and Clark that they will each
be defeated by majorities ranging
from 176 to 200. Just stick a pin there, and see how near we have
hit the mark.
Is Mr. Clark now litigating
claim against him by the school
fund of Monroe county, in which
litigation he is endeavoring to avoid
paying into the school fund certain
moneys due on a loan which was a
ien upon certain lands be purchas
ed? Yes. If he succeeds the
school fund loses the amount.
Examine your ticket and see
that it has the names of the Repub
lican candidates on it. It is not
sure sign that the ticket is straight
because a man yon suppose to be a
Renublican hands it to you. He
j
may be deceived, or he may be de
ceiving you. Clark s name is like
ly to be hidden away in the mid
die of a Republican ticket. Watch
this trick.
?'Oh he is a poor devil " said a person the other evening who was talking against Capt. Newt. Mathers. Yes, he is a poor man, but he
is on a level with several thousand of the voters of Monroe county. The poor men are in the majority here and ought not let a man be defeated on that ground. The most bare-faced and glaring devices will be resorted to by the public enemy (the Democracy)
to carry their point. All manner of crooked tickets will be printed ! and crowded on unsuspecting and innocent voters if possible. This must be watched and prevented, A
man ought to know who he ia voting for. Capt. Mathers of Perry township is the Republican candidate for Sheriff. He is competent, he is popular. But the men who- are working in Hiukle's interest say that Mathers is POOR. Well) that's so, but a poor man ought to
have the same right to run for office that a man who owns several fine farms has. Give Mathers a chance if Ae is poor. By the report of the commissioner of pensions it is shown that that there are in ".Monroe county 282 pensioners in all, who receive

tributed generally K "among all branches of bsiness,as the recipients are persons usually who spend every dollar as soon as it ia received. The installation of W. B.
