I desre to return my Sincere thanks to the Republican Voters of Snyder County for the very generous support given me at the Primay Election ou the 14 Inst. This was a contest be tween members of one and the same political Party, each and every indi vidual republican at perfect liberty t cast his vote for his individual choice with mere hiiideranee, and I am pleased to state that the contest was waged in an honest and friendly manner. As there were seven candi dates for the oftlce of Associate Judge and only one could be nominated, as a matter of course six must fail. It was my good fortunate to lie the successful one for which I am mist sincerely thankful to my friends who stood so loyally by ine and I take this method of thanking them publicly for their support and confidence in me. To those who supported the other candi dates I would sny that you had a per fect right to express your Individual choice at the polls and I am glad to be able to say that I received nothing but fair treatment at the bauds of the can didates and their friends and most re sjiectfully requst the support of all my fellow citizen at the approaching fall cumpalgi.. Very Truly Yours, J. F. Kki.lkh, SinikT liuiiitv Teachers' Normal. Xim teen years ago the County .Nor mal was instituted by Maj. William II. Hill. At that time Freeburg had the only school in the county, devoted to the preparation of teachers, und hence the County Normal w as the most convenient jdace for' ouV'leai hers to prepare themselves for their work. The normal was well patronized from the start, and that is still a popular institu tion was shown last Spring when dur ing my first session one-hundred and thirl -foiir students were enr illed.
