Tanner, Chairman of the Republican State Central Committe, has issued a circular letter regarding the campaign just closing, and speaks em­ phatically of the necessity of electing every Republican possible on the Legis­ lative ticket, as the next LegiPlature will elect a United States Senator to succeed Cullom, and this Senator should Republican to represent a Republi­ can State. That Republicans, to control the Legislature must carry the State to offset the Democratic gerrymander, by nore than 50,000 majority, and there­ fore every Republican should vote a t Republican ticket as printed. Be says: Our carrying the Legislature depends upon every Republican voter casting the Legislative part of the ballot exactly a« printed, without scratching or "plump­ ing." Three times in late years we have lost the Lower House of the Legislature by "plumping"' in close Districts. In each case the two Republicans would both have been eloeted with votes to spare, had the Republican vote been divided between them equally, one and one-half votes each. See to it, therefore, that voters profit by past experience and vote the ticket as printed. A vote for an independent candidate for the Legislature is a vote against the Republican candidates, and for the pur­ pose of defeating the chances of securing Republican supremacy. Don't be deceiv­ ed on this point. Let your personal pre­ ferences sink into insignificance for the success of those principles in which are involved the best material interests of the people. Stand loyally to the Repub­ lican party, the party of progressive ideas, the party which has made our Na­ tion great in the eyes of the world. It is a personal matter of vital interest, and no Republican can claim he has done hip whole^duty in trying to rescue our land from the control of the free-trade Democ­ racy, unless he votes a straight Republi­ can ticket. vt I p.' .. m- TO TIE BMBLICAN VOTERS --OF THE-- ' Eighth Senatorial District. Your committee appointed at the last Senatorial Convention, desire to call your attention to the necessity of united action in our efforts to elect three Repub­ lican members of the Legislature at the coming election. Upon the election of three members from 'this District may depend the election of a Republican United States Senator from this State, and the control of the United States Senate after March 4th next. Voting the Republican ticket as print- ' yon will give our three Republican nominees obe vote each. By so doing, yon will insure the ekction of three Re- pnblicans from this District, and make this the banner District of the State. F. K. GRANGER, Chairman. <§^OHN S.

While the indications point to the fact that the Republicans of McHenry county very generally will vot-* the "straight ticket" this year, it is well, perhaps, to remind them that every effort at the command of the opposition will be put forth to engender strife and dissatisfaction with the ticket as nomi­ nated. No good reason exists why Re­ publicans should be disgruntled, nor does any reason exipt to induce them to listen to the plausible platitudes of the avowed enemies of the party who are just now taking an especial interest in their political welfare. There is an ulte­ rior object in view hidden under a gauzy exterior so flimsy it would seem appar­ ent to every thinking man. The whole aim of the leaders of a hopeless minority in thi* county is by uniting with the soreheads and specious and misleading arguments to elect a Democrat and to defeat a Republican. In politics as in war it is never considered the part of wisdom to follow the advice of your enemy, unless you wish to invite defeat ior yourself and forces. Every Republi­ can on the ticket from Judge to Superin­ tendent is, because of his staunch Re­ publicanism, preferable to any opposi tion candidate, and the party should keep its lines intact and unbroken, this year, BO as to be in trim for the great National contest of 1896. In the view of events it is a Republican year. Stand by every candidate on the straight Re­ publican ticket. Butter on the Elgin Board of Trade on Monday was active and higher, 84,- 680 pounds selling at 22 cents and 6,120 pounds at 22% cents. Offerings and sales were- large; last week's prices 20(«211/4 cents; last year 27%@28 cents. HOW x'O VOTE. The voting of the straight Republican ticket is an easy matter under the Aus­ tralian system. The only thing that is necessary to be done is to makr an X in the big circle opposite and at the left of the word "Republican" on the <head of ticket. This makes sure of a vote for every candidate on the ticket. It is true Republicans are now being besought by the canvassers and leaders of the Demo­ cratic party to vote for one or more of their candidates. They are now fully convinced that this is the only way they can hope to elect any of their ticket. SPOT THEM. The mails are being flooded with bogus , affidavits by the heelers of the sorehead Honglomeration, and from now until election day no device known to political villainy will be left undone by this office seeking rabble and their allies. Every fconeet voter should spot them. They •re guerrillas in politics, and would knife 4iheir best friend to accomplish their ob- ject. No intelligent voter will be deceived. Such acts should, as they no doubt will, make votes for the straight Republican ticket. Their propositions to "trade," their re­ quests for a vote as a "personal" favor and all sueh schemes should be treated with that contempt which they deserve. The Republicans have a strong ticket from top to bottom. It cannot be de­ feated nor can any part of-it De defeated unless Republicans yield to the begging policy of the Democratic leaders, now in full blast, or fail to come out to the polls. This is a year when all Republi­ cans and all others interested in econom­ ical county-government, as well'as state and national, should stand by the nomi­ nees of the party. Every Republican voter should make it a point to see that his neighbor is out to the polls and votes the Republican ticket. The condition of the times and affairs of the county de­ mand this. Illegal and Unfair. The action o! State's Attorney Coon and County Clerk Avery last week, in de­ ciding that the sorehead county ticket should go on the official ballot in two distinct and separate places, was a trav­ esty on justice and an insult to every Re­ publican in McHenry county. As to the motives that influenced the state's at­ torney, there is a variance of opinion, and we will not discuss them, except to say that Mr. Coon is as human as any othen nian. ad is probably none tlfe worse off for his act, except in the opinion ol those who admire a conscientious and honest official. The soreheads have, as usual, impugned the motives of those who protested against the independent ticket being printed ou the official ballot, and their hired organs have raised a great howl about it, distorting the facts in the hope of fooling the peoplp as to Unreal issue at stake. lHie Australian ballot law, under which the people of this 6tate now vote, pro­ vides that " the name of any candidate whose name may appear in any other plaice upon the ballot shall not be added by(petition for the same office." This is th& literal wording of the statute. As wo stated last week, iiie couuty Republi­ can central committee acted upon the belief that the statute means what it says, and filed a protest in the county court against flie names of the sorehead or "independent" (so-called) candidates appearing twice on the ballot. There was no question but what the names of Lyon, Avery, Clark, Throop and Sheldon had a perfect right to appear »n the democratic ticket, tor they were nomin­ ated in convention by a recognized polit ical party, but it is disputed that they have the right to appear on the ballot under any other heading at the same time, and we believe that is^the meaning of the law. If this position is not cor­ rect what is the use of political parties holding conventions anyway?. If the decision of Avery and Coon is correct, any set of schemers can get together, solicit signatures to a petitiod (and it would be a mean man who could not get 200 signers to such a petition), file the petition in the county court under any name they choose, and then go into a political party convention and receive a party nomination, then petition again under some other appellation and keep it up without end, having their names placed on the ballot a half dozen different times, whereas the law clearly implies that no set of name; shall appear on the ballot more than once. The managers of the Republican cam­ paign have no desire to treat any set ol political opponents, no matter how des­ picable they may be, in any other than an honorable way, and they had no de­ sire to keep the names of the soreheads off the ballot, for they are entitled to go on as democratic nominees, and in no other manner. If any Republican wants to vote for these men he can do it ̂ ust as easily under the democratic heading as he can under an independent or some other beading, so that the cry of "trying to disfranchise 2,000 voters" is rot and nonsense. It is the drivel of a gang of political sharks who are hopeless of win­ ning by fair means, so they have, with the assistance of the state's attorney, resorted to foul methods which we believe will be rebuked at the polls next Tuesday. The State's Attorney himself admitted that he didn't think the decision exactly right, but that he couldn't seeas it made any difference how many times the sore­ head candidates' names appear on the ballot. It makes the difference that these spoilsmen are given two chances to the straight Republicans one, and it is unfair, unjust, contrary to the law and a very perversion of the statute. It is but another illustration of what we have said before--the soreheads will resort to any means, no matter how vile, to elect their ticket, even to the blackening of the characters of reputable citizens, bribery, bogus affidavits, slander, falsehood and deceit, and 'this last act is the culmina­ tion of the whole vile plot to destroy the Republican party and its candidates. We appeal to all lovers of fair play to rebuke this piece of political vandalism by voting the straight Republican county ticket next Tuesday. If you don't do it none of your sacred interests will be safe and you will be at the mercy of a flock of political vultures, hungry, greedy and without moral responsibility.--Sentinel. J. 0. CLARK'S RECORD As a Republican, in ^ County, Wis. It may be that the-voters of M.jHenryJ county do not realize that their neigh­ bors in Walworth county feel interested' • in the political complications surround-: ing them. Such is not the case. On tbet r' contrary, we are very much interested in - the final outcome, because we GOAL & FEED i' ^ 4 - - fo.Qood Supply. ac­ quainted with the man who carried the political "bee" with him from this town to his present home, Harvard, III. J. D. Clark left this town a sadder man politi­ cally, and as we perceive by his perform-1 ances since, hot a particle wiser. We am; so elated over the knowledge that we ami J purged of hie political intrigues,-that we cannot as fully sympathize with you as* we could if we did not know his political career in this sounty. J. D. Clark, the Democratic nominee for the office of County Treasurer of McHenry county, was a strong and ardent supporter of the liberal Republican movement of 1872t and took active part in the campaign About this time the Granger movement being inaugurated, he also became a prominent advocate of that cause. I speak of this last circumstance without any disrespect, but to show that the Granger business furnished the seductive "bee" for his future political aspirations, be conceiving the idea that the farmer element of Walworth county would throw politics to the dogs and put farm­ ers into office, irrespective of political affiliations, but he got badly disappoint­ ed. As soon as hi* candidacy was made known that he intended to go befpre a Re­ publican convention and ask for the office of sheriff, it was asked on all sides how he could have the effrontery to enter a Republican convention and seek an office but with the help of the "bee" he was equal to the occasion. He admitted that he had fallen from grace and had very suddenly seen that he was on the wrong track and had switched by being re­ converted. T will now show you how much faith that Republican convention had in the man. *..He received two more votes than were cast for him by his dele­ gates. He did not deceive the stalwart Republicans of Walworth county that time. After a breathing spell this little bee" convinced him that he would be better adapted to the work of making laws than executing them, so that in the fall of 1882 he made a desperate attempt to make the delegates assembled at Darien believe that he had never fallen from grace, but there was too much Re­ publicanism in that convention to trust him. I consider that if there ever was a political intriguer in Walworth county that man was J. D. Clark. When he was making his canvass for Sheriff he sought the assistance of a well known Democrat in Delevan, During the canvass they chanced to meet on the streets of Dele- van, and after shaking hands the Demo­ crat commenced to speak about the out­ look, etc., when Clark suddenly stopped him, saying it would not do to talk there on the street as they would be seen, but to go to some room. The Democrat with an indignant expression abruptly left him. See the long list of offices he has been after and signally failed. Sheriff of Walworth county, member of Assembly of the first district of Walworth" county, and paymaster'in the army, penitentiary commissioner, supervisor, president of the school board and county treasurer, all while living in Harvard. Relegate him to the rear is the earnest wish of all who know of bis performances in this county.

Every device known to pot house politicians is being used to de­ ceive the honest voters and thereby secure a vote for their dishonest con- glomeration. Put your seal of condem­ nation upon their nefarious schemes by voting the straight Republican ticket, which is composed of tried and true men, and who were, without exception, the choice of the people of the county by a large majority. MP*The world do move.". There has been a time when none but a crazy man would hav§ suggested that Gov. McKin- ley make protection speeches in Kentucky and Louisiana. Now his doing so is merely an incident of the campaign. REPUBLICAN VOTERS. The Republican voters of McHenry County should so vote on Tuesday next as to have the satisfaction of knowing that they, at least, have done their whole duty, and not only roiled up a rotising majority for the straight Repub­ lican ticket, but taught soreheads and their democratic allies a lesson that they will remember for all time to come. And above all bear in mind the Legislative ticket, for this is of the utmost import­ ance, as upon one vote may depend the election of a Republican United States Senator. Let there be no plumping or scratching. Vote the entire Republican ticket just as printed and you will make no mistake. Vote Early* Under the present system of voting it is unsafe to wait until the last hour be­ fore going to the polls to cast your vote. In case a large number should do so many would lose their vote, as the man­ ner of voting is necessarily slower than by the old method. Let every voter bear this in mind and make it their busi­ ness to go to the polls in the morning and cast their vote. Every vote in the rural districts should be in the ballot box before three o'clock on Tuesday next. VOTE EAKLY. Deserting the Damocratic Party. The Elgin, III., Dispatch says: There continues to be desertions from the 100 Democrats left in Elgin's population German's who left the Republicans at the last election are flocking back in droves A small sensation was created to-day when the Elgin Herald and the Dundee Herald, both German weeklies and local organs of the democracy, announced complete conversion and placed the Re­ publican state ticket where Franklin MacVeagh's name had been since the nomination. I©*" It is because it has been fully dem onstrated that the Republican party is the only one capable of keeping the coun try in a continuously prosperous condi tion that the people propose to restore it to power. It isn't politics as much as it is common 'sense that is bringing ab out this revolution. M9"No good Republican should give amy aid to the candidacy of any man , who is not ou the Republican ticket.
