THE REPUBLICANS OF CLARE PLACE IN
NOMINATION EXCELLENT MEN.
Henry T. Nowlin for Mayor.
THE BROKEN FORCES OF THE OPPOSITION
WILL FIND IT HARD TO BEAT.
The republican? of the city are more confident than
ever before of success at Monday's election. The entire
governing body, including the mayor, were last year taken
from the democratic ranks, and the condition of our sidewalks, our streets, the spread of the present small pox
epidemic, and the general tone of the city government have
been carefully noted by the intelligent voters, many of
whom aver that it is not to the city's interests to have her
business run in such a onesided manner, and that, too, by
some whose personal prejudices and selfishness predominate
over sound judgement.
The republicans have nominated a set of men, liberal
and broadminded, and if elected to offlce, we can personally
vouch for them that the duties devolving upon them will
be done in a manner credible to themselves," and to the
entire satisfaction of those who pay the bills—the taxpayer.
Following is the republican
crrr ticket:
Mayor—Henry T. Nowlin.
Clerk—Mell Buell.
Treasurer—Albert Thurston.
School Inspector—Dr. A. E. Mulder.
Justice of the Peace—Br. J. H. Carpenter.
FIRST WARD.
Supervisor—Archie C. Grordanier.
Alderman—James L. Welch.
Constable—Thomas Smith.
SECOND WARD.
Supervisor— D. J. Pox.
Alderman—Frank B. Doherty.
Constable—S. A, Grleason,
THIRD WARD.
Supervisor—John R. Goodman.
Alderman—Charles W, Calkins.
Constable—James Easton.
Now voters, take a fair look at this ticket, bury petty
prejudices, and ask yourself the question—is it not an excellent ticket? and then vote your convictions.
It is being urged by his opponents that H. T. Nowlin,
nominee for mayor, should be defeated because of the fact
that he is not a taxpayer in the city. While it is true that
Henry is not on the city tax roll, in Clare county he pays
far more taxes than the average taxpayer. He is a man
who commands the confidence and respect of everyone and
this one point should not be urged against him; if it is,
however, and insisted upon, just ask how much tax the
democratic candidate for school commissioner pays. Not a
dollar, and the high probabilities are that he never expects
to in this county.
Mell Buell, the nominee for city clerk, was defeated by
a small majuority for that office last year, but it is safe to
say he will ' 'keep the books" the ensuing year. Besides
being a republican first, last and all the time, he is a young
man held in high esteem by the entire community, and
will be a faithful man for the position.
Just one word for city treasurer Albert 'ihurston. He
returned less uncollected taxes this year than any treasurer
the city has ever had. Who is there that will oppose a
man with such an excellent record? Mr. Thurston is now
suffering from a severe attack of small pox, but he has a
host of supporters who are not afflicted, and who are going
to see to it that when the votes are counted Monday evening he will have been elected by a handsome majority.
Dr. A. E. Mulder taught school several years, is well
and favorably known in Clare and his nomination for
school inspector meets with the approval of all.
t Dr. J. H. Carpenter has been a life long democrat,
which party has from time to time elected him to many
offices of trust and honor. The doctor now comes boldly
over to the republican ranks. Attory C. W. Perry has been
heard to say that the doctor has made the best justice the
city has ever had, and this expression from the source it
comes is indeed a high compliment.
A. 0. Grordanier received the nomination for supervisor
in the first ward, and while the republican majority there
is not large, his chanees for winning out are good. He will
make an excellent man for this office. D. J. Fox is the republican nominee in the second ward, and whil.e he faces
quite a strong opposition, if any republican can pull
through D. J. is the man. J. K. Goodman has made a
most excellent supervisor for the third ward the past year
and will be elected this year solely on his merits, He is
one of the best supervisors the ward has ever had and we
are confident of his success.
, For alderman the firBt ward have placed in nomination a
man who has been alderman, and supervissr of his ward.
His experience is invaluable, and we feel assured* that
James L. Welch will be elected as alderman from the first
ward, The second ward honored Frank B. Doherty by placing him in nomination for alderman, and while he has not
the age of Ms opponent, he has shown himself to be a successful business man, and if he can succeed for himself it
naturally follows that he can well be intrusted to help
transact the business of the city. Charles W. Calkins is
another young business man whom the third ward has
honored by nominating him for alderman, Chas. being
well qualified for the position, a successful business man,
and being in a ward with quite a large republican majority
his election is assured,
Thomas Smith from the first ward, S. A* Gleason from
the second Ward and James JSaston from the third ward
will make excellent constables.
