The Republican ticket appears with W. W. Reynolds or J. F. Curry, J. A. McDowell, David Barnes, M. J. McMillin, J. D. Martin, L. M. Markham, and Q. C. Clary. This slate outlines candidates for positions in the upcoming election.
In a county-wide political piece, Lamar and Holly precinct leaders rally for M J McMillin while praising J D Martin and John Curry. The column notes past tax levies, claims reduced expenses by McDowell and Barnes, criticizes fusion rates, and urges continued tax cuts with support for McMillin.
A letter defends Marsena J. McMillin for county commissioner and rebuts a Fusion Editor’s claims. It asserts commissioners are chosen by countywide open conventions, notes past nominations from Granada and Holly, and argues Lamar nominees have not prevailed. The writer urges unity and outlines party ticket distribution across Prowers County.
A 1999 North Side Democrat letter to the Register denounces Lamar county Democratic bosses for repeatedly trading North Side fusionist candidates. The writer cites missed nominations from 1893 to 1907 and vows to oppose the Lamar gang this year, urging loyalty to Leslie and delivering a rebuke to party leadership.
