the
w. isaKer, a prominent
esteemed citizen of Jackson
county, died suddenly at 5:25
o’clock Monday morning at his
home in East Newport' from
heart failure and Bright’s dis
ease! |
The deceased had beten in poor
health since last September, but
was thought to be gaining
strength lately and had been
about town for the past week,
being out only last Saturday.
He had announced his candida
cy for office and was feeling so
much better, that his family and
friends were elated to know that
he was regaining his former
good health. I
Siinrlov WAS not so well
and Sent for a physician and it
seemed as though pneumonia
might be setting in. i
The end came very unexpect- j
QOriv npxt morning from a I
weak heart and the news of his
death was quite a shock to the
people of Newport. i

Gen. Norwood’s reason for
withdrawing is that it would
cost much more than the salary
of the office to get the nomina
tion, and he would have to bor
row the money from friends, and
it would take a long time to re- ^
pay it. I here is much conjee-!j

Donaghey or Robinson most, 11

iij the candidates will be kid at,'
-(the court hoi|se tonight. There'
i aie a numberW interesting and
several bitter contests, and pro
bably more money has been
spent in advertising an?public
nty than in any election for
j county officers held here in
l years, if ever.
There are fifteen candidates
out for the four positions of re
presentative, among them being
former Secretary of State 0. C.
Ludwig, who was jdefeated two
fears ago for the Congressional
nomination. W. CA Faucette and
V- R. Barrow, j^embers of the
ast house, arei candidates for a
econcf term, wvhile the majority
1 uie orners/fare young lawyers.
The most/* bitter contest is
i ^at ^or y treasurer, an of
,fice that i»iays very handsomely
in PulasldK county. There are
four cancjPj^a^es for it, Harry M.
Ramey, w„ weii known insurance
man, M [ g Akin, a bank attache,
Henry} q y0gjer> present county
clerk ,, and Fred Schader, a for
mer sheriff.
'he contest for sheriff is also
ery warm one, the candidates
Joeing Will G. Hutton, present
treasurer, and Louis Reichardt,
a present deputy sheriff. There
are also contests for county
clerk, circuit clerk, assessor, and
county judge. The bitterest
coriest is that for constable of
this township. W. A. (Dutch)
Jones is a candidate for a se
cond term, and is opposed by W.
M. Rankin, the Humane officer.
They are making a campaign of
personal charges, and each has
published pamphlets containing
matter not admissable to the
newspapers, charging the other
with various crimes and misde
meanors. So bitter have these
denunciations become that offi
cers have kept a close watch at
the public speakings to prevent
serious trouble between the par
tisans of the two men.
