A B. Crampton’s Friends Boost Him For High Office.

A. B. Crampton, editor of the Carroll County Citizen-Times and state commander of Grand Army of the Republic, is coming in for considerable ‘ well-deserved prominence now, both state and national. He was? recently proposed as the next democratic candidate for governor and now his friends are urging him for the next national commander of the Grand Army. The national encampment will be held in Washington, D. C., the last week in September and it is probable that Indiana veterans will ibe assisted by other states in urging Mr, Crampton for that office. -- ' rr ■- ■ The Rensselaer friends of Editor Crampton would be pleased to see him as the national commander and would, to be sure, glad to sec him governor of Indiana, but there is no chance for the latter honor, for we wish to serve notice on him right now that the next governor is to be a republican. We give him a clear track for national commander or any other non-pplitical honor.
