To THE EDIToR:
From an editorial article in the last
Free Press, il would seem. you apprs-
hend that some difficulty may arise as 10
the location, or residence Of the candl
dates for Senator and representatives 10
this district For one, do dot perceive
that any difficulty need occur in that
respect, if there be a timely understand
ing between the people Of the Two coun'
ties, with regard TO the nomination -
Permit me, however, to make "A sngges.
tion Suppose, lhatthe people OF Carroll

ton ol one RepresentiVe tor each coun :
~, al their county convention for noml
mating county officers; and, at subse

al Springfield, make the nomination OF
the Senator and The third representative,
1t appears 10 me that this arrangement
could not fail to prove satisfactory to all
concerned. Atany rate, throw out this
suggestion for what it is worth. II any
better plan can be adopted, ii shall have
my hearty concurrence.
"Friend, if better system thine,
Impart it freely; else use mine"
/ agree with you in the opinion tha
4 the political campaign for this yeal
should be opened as soon as practicable
4 The candidates should be selected be-
fore harvest if possible; and ample TINT
given for the canvass.
It occurs to me also, that, before TIN
meeting OF the several county ConVen-
tions, 8if Conventions shall be resorIet
10, as hereioIore,) there should be al
understanding among the people oi thl
Congressional district, as to the time
place and mode OF nominating a cand
date for Congress. ! suppose, the se'

counties composing the district, haV
