: the best that has ever boen presented fo
the suffrages of the people of the county
is beyond question. 1t is ccs-posed gene
rally of sterling men, equal II every res
pect to the positions for which they or
named Joseph Kutz is gentleman c
talents, patriotism, honesty and good pur
pose. His devotion to correct principles
proFerbiah One fault he has, i it be
fault to be modest, But by his unassum
ing manners no man in the Senate whe
he gets there need expect to practice cor
ruptien before his eyes without exposure

so far as Joseph Kutz and his endeavor
can go to secure justice. He will make

the right man in the right place.

and a noble head it has. The Colonel is
true Virginian of the old ami better time
He has served his country On the field o
battle, and received an elegant sword fol
bis good and gallant conduct, from the Leg
islature of Illinois. He has seen Legisla-
tive service too. In fitness no one in the
county excels him for a legislator in these
times. He is another right man in the right
place.
W. II. Sears is another gentleman of ex-
eellent qualities of head and heart, devoted
to the interests of the county, patriotic,
generous and just. That he is worthy of a
place on the ticket is shown in the fact that
a large and intelligent body of Republicans
selected him over many Others. though Mr..
Kutz and Colonel Collins had already been
nominated from the same township.
! j, NJ, Avery served last winter in the Leg
islatpre and left clean record His re-
| nomination was due to his upright aud con-
sisteut course amid the corruptious and
| foolishueSs of the last session of the Legis-
lature.
In Reuben Leach, the convention found
a young and clever gentleman of good
business habits, great activity, and with
promise of usefulness. That other older
and excellent Republicans and gentlemen
were passed over to give him the nomina-
tion is a compliment he will try to de-
serve.

trict Judge, In his own party he has been
long looked to as the only candidate for the
place,
The Republican nominee for Sheriff is
new man, but none the less meritorious on
that account. Mr.. N w. Knowlton is a
gentleman of quiet but popular habits, ge-
nial nature, and of good methodical hu-
siness turn, which will insure correctness
in the discharge Of his olicia! duties, His
circumspection affords grounds for continue
ing his bondsmen completely at their ease,
while his fearlessness makes him proper
person on whom to depend for the thorough
execution of the law,

ner. His many good qualities are too well
known to mention in this connection, and

personal sacrifice to himself Contrary to
bis desire he has been thrust forward on
several occasions as candidate for Office,
when no hope of success was entertained.
He has always entered the field and con-

respect, or the good opinion of his friends.
His competency for any position he might
ask is universally conceded,
The neSton the ticket is one who is known
to hundreds in this county as the writer of
tolerably dull prose for this paper, Under
