County Nominations

The County Convention on Saturday last
fully represented from every town and ward in
the county. The convention it will be perceiv-
ed by looking over the list of delegates, was COM
posed Of men of responsibility and integrity. In
making its nominations, there is good reason to
believe the convention was actuated by honora-
bic motives, and desire to present good tick
et We have not learned that there exists any
evidence of unfairness against the proceedings
of the convention. There were quite number
of candidates for most of the Offices allof whom
were worthy men and well qualified for the posi-
tons that were sought for them. Ofcourse there
were disapointments; this was expected.
A party in the majority, will always have more
candidates than there are places such has ever
been the case, and such will continue to be the
condition of things. According to the usages of
the party, the claims or merits of the respective
candidates for office are submitted to the deter
Dination of Delegates, who are presumed to rep
esent the wishes Of the people. 1t is moreover
the Republican usage, to abide the decision Of
a properly constituted convention.
The candidates who have been put in nomi
nation, are generally we'll known to the people
of the county most of them being old residents
1t is unnecessary, therefore for us to speak O.
the candidates individually. So far as our &C
quaintance with them extends, they are all mel
of good character-men of intelligence, and wei
qualified for the several offices for which the,
have been nominated. As such, we trust the
will receive the cordial and undivided supper
of the Republican party.

Mr.. Potter arrived here yesterday at FIVE
o'clock, on the train from the north. He was
received at the Depot by the Wilmot Wide

this city, acting as Marshal The Wilmot

Awakes accompanied Mr. Potter to Kenosha.-
Although the arrangements for the reception of
Mr.. Potter at the Depot were contemplated by
but few, yet when his coming was signazed by
cannon, by spontaneous movement, a large
crowd assembled to welcome him. Judge Potter
was escorted into town by the Kenosha and
Wilmot Wide-Awakes and several of our leading
citizens.
In the evening Judge Potter was escorted by
a fine procession to Market Square, where a
stand had been erected by the store of Balm g.
Brother. We hazard nothing in saying, the
crowd was the largest ever gathered in this civ
to hear public speaker the number present
exceeded the most sanguine expectation of the
who called the meeting.
The meeting was called to order by Judge jill.
sun, on whose nomination Senator Durkee was
chosen to preside. Judge Potter proceeded to
address the m altitude, in speech replete with
sound argument, and which could not fail of
effect on every unprejudiced mind -
We have no time to notice the arguments of Mr..
Potter this week.
Enough to say the people are impatient for
the day to arrive, when they may deposit their
votes for the reelection of Mr. Potter
After the close of Mr.. Potter's address, Ed.
Healy, Capt. of the Salem Wide Awakes gave
capital song. The Wilmot Wide Awakes also
sung some CAMPAIGN songs with excellent effect.

be regarded as a most gratifying demonstration.

Douglas in Kenosha

The story of Mr.. Douglas being insulted by
the Wide Awakes, during his stop at Kenosha,
having travelled through the papers to some ex-
tent. we deem It proper to refer to it again The
editor of the Democrat, who was present at the
time referred to, entirely exhonorates the Wide
Awakes of any intention of disturbing Mr..
Douglas. The Democrat speaks of the Wide
Awakes as follows:
The misapprehension grew out Of their en-
deavoring to change their position, and take up
one better adapted to light that part of the train
on which Mr.. Douglas stood. In doing SO they
marked time with the drum until they discovered
Mr.. Douglas was speaking. 1t is due them tC
state that their change of position was made al
Mr. Douglas own request. Some per son inform
ed him 1t was company of wide Awakes'
purposely creating disturbance, else he never
would have known but they were 'little giants
to man. We regret that Mr. Douglas should
carry away with him a wrong impression of the
affair We do not believe the company attend
ed for the purpose of making disturban ce
Whatever else may justly attach to them, We &C.
quit them of this"
The above candid statement of the Democra
we suppose will satisfy our Democratic friends
Disturbing Douglas meetings will not be coun
tenanced by Republicans.

Democratic Count y Nomina tions.

The Douglas Democracy of the county, met
in convention Monday last, and made the follow

Treasurer, J. Brewer

District Attorney v French.
County Surveyor, B. L. Dodge.
Coroner, John Crow
The foregoing nominations, comprise the most
active and leading men of the Democratic par

the full Democratic strength. One of the nom
nees however, we believe has not voted the
the Democratic ticket in past years, and will
probably vote for Lincoln on the 9th OF Novem-
