Jasper County Democrat, Volume 15, Number 33, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 27 July 1912 — Mentioned for Joint Representative. [ARTICLE]

Mentioned for Joint Representative.

The Democrat has heard the names of Charles E. Sage of Jordan township; John Hayes of Barkley and O. K. Ranier of Rensselaer mentioned as good timber for the democratic nomination for joint-, representative. Either one of the gentlemen would make a good representative. Mr. Sage is a prominent farmer and ex-trustee of Jordan, is an old school teacher and an able man for the place. Mr. Hayes is also a farmer, a former school teacher and an able and clean man. Mr. Ranier came here from White county and nas served on the board of commissioners of that county. He is a retired farmer and business man and has all the ear-marks of a good man for this place. No doubt there are many other

good men in the county who might be induced to make the race, and The Democrat only mentions Messrs, ■sa&e. Hayes and Ranier because of having heard them spoken of. Neither of them are seeking the place nor do we know that the use of their names; would be authorized, but as White county is looking to Jasper to furnish the candidate the matter should be taken up and the candidate or candidates be found before our delegates go over to Monon to convetnion, it is well to talk the matter over and learn where we are at.
