The EoninatioRs.
Ia another place we give the proceed
ings of the Republican County Conven-
ton, and take pleasure in placing the
names of the candidates nominated by the
Conyentiop. at the head Qf our columns.
The Convention was one of the fullest
Iand strongest that the Republican party
have ever assembled in this cosnty-and
the delegates came direetly from the voice
of the people, as wouid naturally result
from a spirited contest in the delegate
mectings-the principal struggle being
between the various candidates for jSher-
if. The result, though not generally an
tioipated, is entirely satisfactory, We be-
lieve, to the people of this county sener-
ally, and we have no hesitation in saying
that Mr. Jones will be elected by ma
jority that will convince everybody of the
Integrity of the Republican vote of this
county.
The recommendation of Mr. Ben
son for State Senator, is significant
expression of the popularity of that gen
tleman in this county, and we trust will
be properly respected by the Conference
which meets heie on the 21st inst. Ii
oga county presents the name of S. H..
Wilson; Warren, that of Mr.. Scoield,
the present incumbent; and Mexican,
that of Mr.. Williams.
The denomination of Mr.. Mann for
Representative. is hearty endorsement
of his course and efficiency while in the
House last winter. IT, ?. Wifliston, ESQ,
his colleague last winter, has also been
re-nomiuated by the Republicans Of Tao
ga county, and their reelection by large
majoritjes is Il matter-of-course.
Mr.. ,Iopes, the candidate for Sheriff, is
eminentIy capable for the duties of that
Office, wel-known to the people of the
county, and personally popular wherev-
or known. The Convention could not
we'll have been more fortunate in their
selection of candidate, though none of
the candidates presented were any more
Objectionable than he was. Mr.. Jones
majority will not fall far short of 500, and
we are confident will exceed that number.
With the candidates fnr Commissioner,
Auditor, Surveyor and Coroner, We are
only sufficiently acquainted to assure our
readers that they are capable and deserv-
ing men; and as there will not be likely
to be any opposition to them, they will
be elected by full party vote. Dir.
Thatcher, the candidate for Commission
er is a young man, we'll educated and well
informed, and in every respect worthy Of
the support and confidence Of the people
of this county. We speak thus particu-
larly Of his qualifications, because we are
desirous that voters may know that they
are supporting worthy person.
OF the duty Of Republicans with re-
spect to the ticket, we will speak atlength
in our next issue; for the present only
calling attention to the communication of
