Democratic Nominations.


The convention on Saturday was as well at
tended as could reasonably be expected IN os hu-
sy part of the season as this, and every thing
went off with the utmost good feeling. The pro-
ceedngs are given 10 another column and 1t VIII
be seen that the nomination for school comms-
sioner fell ON the old incumbent, and for county
commissioner on CaARLEs ii. GILMAN, Esq, OF
Troy Grove precinct
OF Mr.. LELAND it is MT necessary for US to
speak. We believe he has discharged the duties
Of his Office vexaous as they frequently are and
but POORLY compensatory the entire satisfaction
Of the people OF the county. The nomination
was unsought on his part, and very Reluctantly
accepted. Public convenience requires that the
Office should be held by some enc at the county
seat, which is probably the only reason why
man from The country was not taken.
Mr.. GILMAN is no, SO well known, and in re-
ference to his nomination word of explanation
may be necessary. Ii seemed 10 be generally
conceded by the delegates that Troy Grove, or ol
least that region of the county, was entitled to
the commissioner. But Trov Grove was no. re-
presented in the convention, and urged no man,
or cl,ims. This is probably the only reason why
d man from there was not nom mated on the hrst
ballot. |, is due to say, that Mr. Gilman had no
par, nor lot in the matter. His nomination is a
free gift Of the conventi n, os unexpected we pre-
sumo as unsought, and was made with sincere
Jcs! Q TO present man acceptable to the whole
county. AS to his qualifications for the Office,
those who arc acquainted with the man VIII want
10 certificate. he is well Informed, intelligent
farmer; has been encountered, for several years,
by his ncighbors, with the Office Of justice of the
peace, the duties of which he discharged 10 their
entire sali,fiion; and hav been for some time
enspgad in the mercantile business in New York,
he is ready accountant, familiar with and proc-
ts,ei in the mnniia Of business, and wei prepar-
ed to &c, efficiently and promptly, and with juds-
mcnt, OH questions that come before him.
Our county boa d is q, eien, in the hands OF
the wings. The judges and inspectors OF cleo
tons and other officers, receive their appointment
ut their hands, and in many ways they are ena-
bled to WELD a considerable political inilocnce.
There is no reason whatever why, in county ns
strongly democratic as ours, this influence should
not he in the hands of the democrats; and as a
good opportunity Is now presented, we are conn
dent our democratic brethren will not be slow TO
RICH. the matter by giving the nom 'nec oil the
convention cordial support.
