Those Good and True Men.

The Republican Candidates tor County Offices. Marcus H. Hemphill, the present most genial, faithful and accomodating incumbent, is the candidate for county Treasurer,' his re-nomination being a well deserved recognition of the eminently satisfactory manner in which he is now filling the position. Mr. Hemphill is 49 years old, a native of Ross Co., Ohio, but has lived in Rensselaer since 1857. He entered the 48th Indiana regiment in Nov. 1861 and saw three years and 9 months of hard service. Was in the battles of luka, Corinth, Jackson, Champion Hills, Vicksburg, Kingston, N. C. &c. Was only hit ty one bullet, and that did not hurt him much. He has been a farmer all his life, until the duties of his called him to town last summer. Mr. Hemphill is a most moral, upright, and honorable man; and in politics is a Republican on principle and stays right with it, because he beleives it to be right. - Thomas Thompson, the candidate for recorder, is another representative of the soldier element, which so yell deserves and so generously receives recognition at the hands of the Republican party. He was born in Hancock Co., 0., and is nearly 51 years of age. He has been a constant resident of Jasper Co., since 1870, and for a short period prior to that time. H is share in the great struggle for the Union was taken in the 99th Ohio regiment He enlisted Aug. 12, 1862 and was mustered out May 12,1865. He saw plenty of hard fighting and has himself stopped several rebel bullets, the only one, however, which did him

much damage was received at Kenesaw Mountain, June 20, 1864. This passed through his side, and put a final stop to his active service at the front. He is a thoroughly estimable man, in all the walks of life, and will make a model public official, both in matters of efficiency and accomodation. In politics no man could be more firmly and consistently a Republican, although no one ever knew or heard of his treating a political opponent with anything but courtesy and consideration. "John E. Alter, the successful “dark horse” candidate for County Surveyor, is another representative of the younger element of the Republican party. He too is a native born Jasperite, has passed 38>years on earth, and all but five of them in Jasper county. He lives in Union township, and works his farm summers and teaches school winters. In the latter capacity he has an unbroken record of twenty successive winters in , the school iQom.. He ia a atudent in many ways, but has made a specialty of mil-engineering and is a competent surveyor, both theoretically and practically. He is very popular personally, as he well deserves to be, and the great extent of his popularity was shown two years ago, when as a candidate for the Republican nomination for county clerk he held that other very popular man, Will Coover, such an even race for the nomination, both in the popular vote and in the convention. He has had much practical experience in surveying and is especially apt in that branch of the profession most needed in Jasper county, the surveying and locating of ditches. C. E. Mills, the candidate for county assessor, has filled the office since June, 1891, he being the first incumbent of the office, and appointed by the county commissioners. It was a position of peculiar difficulties, just as the new *tax law was going in operation, but he discharged its duties with ability and perfect justice and to the satisfaction of every reasonable mind. Hq is still another representative of the young Republi-

cans, being 35 years old. Being born in 1856, the same year the Republican party was organized, he was born right into the party, and has stayed with it ever since. He was born in LaSalle Co., 111., and moved to Carpenter tp., in 1884, and in the spring of the {iresent year, he moved to Rensseaer. Farming and school teaching have been Ji is principal occupations, but having read law in his younger days, he has turned his attention largely to the practice of that profession, within the last year or two. He is an excellent man, in all respects, and his name adds strength to the ticket Charles W. Hanley,the candidate for County Sheriff is THE representative, par excellence, of the young Republicans. He is not quite 27 years old, and a native of Jasper county, Hanging Grove tp. being his birth-place. He is the son of a soldier, which is the next best thing to having been a sold-

ier, himself. That he could not well’ have been, having been born too late for thpt, although he might pretty nearly be classed as a member of the war infantry, having been born in 1865, the last year of the war. He is a young man of most excellent principles, and of genial and pleasing deportment Of his great personal popularity, and especially among the young men, there is no question. In politics he is a firm Republican and an active worker. His occu pation is that of a farmer and teacher. He has ia good education, acquired at our excellent country schools, and at the State Normal at Terre Haute. He is peculiarly available as as candidate just at this juncture, and no name could have been chosen, which could have added more strength to the ticket. He will make a thoroughly capable, trust worthy and accomodating county sheriff.

Shelby Grant, candidate for county coroner, is soldier number three on the ticket, but was a soldier No. 1, in war times, when any fun. fighting or foraging was on hand. He will make a good coroner, and should occasion require it, will sit upon the corpses of any of the friends who insisted upon nominating him for the office, against his will, just as cheerfully and effectually as he would upon the defunct bodies of political opponents. He is a rattling good Republican, politically, but officially he will know no politics, and will never think of stopping to ask a deceased gentleman how he voted at the last election before consenting to honor him with an inquest John C. Martindale, the candidate for the non-lucrative but most honor able and responsible office of County Commissioner, is one of Newton townships most solid and successful farmers. He is a man of large understanding and excellent judgment, and in all respects is one of the best men for the position ever nominated in the county, by any party.

A Good Road Law.

The Michigan road law providing that the users of wide wagon wheel tires shall have a rebate of one half of their road tax, is an ingenious inducement which works great advantage to the taxpayer, to the roads, and, by consequence, to the general public. According to a writer in Good Roads “it is estimated that with broad tires on wagons, carriages and buggies all public highways can be kept in very much better condition than is now possible at one-fourth the cost of the present system. In the matter of road reform the first essential seems to be the widening of the tires of vehicles. The general adoption of this would be a long step of itself of in the direction of perfect roads. With out it perfect roads are practicallyimpossible? ’—Philadelphia Record. ~~ ~~~ ‘ - —.
