----------
(From Tuesday's Daily.)
Mr. Stites is an old resident of Shelby county, having spent 15 of the best years of his life as a teacher in our own Decatur county schools. For the last seven years he has been a farmer in Noble township. He is a product of a long and loyal line of Republican stock. His father and his grandfather before him were Republicans of the stern sort. Mrs. Stites, who was formerly Miss Susie Durbin, was the daughter of the late Oliver P. Durbin, for five years a soldier in the war of the Rebellion and a staunch Republican. One daughter has been borning [born in ?-pmf] to the union.
The new candidate for county assessor came to Shelby county 25 years ago from Decatur county. He has at every turn allied himself with the interests of the party and has served in many capacities on various committees and in more than one political battle. Mr. Stites and his family are members of the Geneva M. E. church and popular residents of Noble township.
In announcing his candidacy for the nomination at the County convention March 21, Mr. Stites says he will work for his own election if nominated, and for the success of the entire Republican ticket -- a think he asserts is the duty of every candidate regardless of his popularity.
