Guthrie served as Captain of Co. 1, 101 Indiana Infantry in the Spanish American War. lie is a man very highly respected and will come ns near being elected perhaps as any man that can be pitted against Mr. Crumpacker

The Carroll County Citizen, although published in another congressional district, pays a handsome tribute to our democratic candidate for congress in the following words: The democrats of the Tenth district did themselves great honor last Saturday in nominating Capt. Wm. Guthrie of Monticello, for Congress. Capt. Guthrie is a man of rare good business judgment, as the management of his own private affairs bears abundant testimony. An experienced teacher and former superintendent of schools speaks volumes for his educational qualification. He is a lawyer of marked ability. His Americanism is demonstrated by his prompt response to the call for troops in the Spanish war. There is not an element necessary in a faithful, competent and efficient representative in congress but what can be found in Capt. Guthrie's general make-up. Being one of the people he knows their wants, and being an honest man will fairly represent them. Capt. Gt thrie is one of the most eloquent speakers in th«- state and will thoroughly canvass the district. The old Tenth district has a reputation of flirting with democrats in congressional e'ections, having in times past defeated Schuyler Colfax, Billy Owen and other lesser republican lights by electing their democratic opponents, and there never was a time that it could more worthily bestow its favor upon a democrat than now.
