THE WASHINGTON STATE REGISTERFriday, October 10, 1890Ellensburgh, WashingtonCANDIDATESA. A. MEADE, the democratic nominee for the office of sheriff, is a man with whom every voter in Kittitas county is familiar. His long residence in the county, extending over a period of nineteen years, and his occupation, that of a farmer and stock raiser, should not be overlooked when considering his strength with a large class of voters...

Born in Lafayette county, Missouri, in 1860, at the age of five, with five brothers and sisters, he was left an orphan. Friends of their parents took immediate charge of the destitute little ones. This kindly feeling of friends, however, soon became dampened, and young Martin, not being well-treated, bid adieu to his former friends and being imbued with an indomitable spirit, set bravely out to battle on the sea of life, alone and unaided, at the age of nine. After laboring five years, young MALONEY was enabled to count $72 as his own, and with a portion of it purchased a ticket to California, whither he went and engaged at day labor as a swamper, farmer hand and dairyman. After battling a long time on the temptuous waste of misfortune, he headed for Northern California and halted at San Francisco, where he did whatever his hands could find to do, until the next spring, when he again went article at this point is too dark to read at bottom of page
For county surveyor, A. P. YORK is the choice of the democratic party, and his past record as an officer in this capacity speaks louder, longer and ??? than all ??? that could be said or done for him. Practically has no opposition and will certainly be elected with the rest of the ticket.
Big honest John FOSTER is the man whom the democrats have put forward to fill the responsible position of assessor.... He was brought up a farmer and is therefore a good judge of farm values...
The county commissioner from the Third District, Martin MITCHELL, has been named. Mr. MITCHELL is a prosperous farmer, a man of good business ability...
