RECONCILIATION OF Hon. GEO. W. JULIAN.
We notice with great pleasure, the renomina
ton OF Mr.. Julian. und that be has q fair pros
pect Of being elected. Last spring be was
nominated by popular vote in two OF the
counties OF bis District without Opp0eitiOn. Re-
Gently two other couaties hava nominated him
10 the same way, giving him four counties out
of the six composing the district. He also
commands ons-ha Of one OF the remaining
two counties, and smaller fraction of the re-
naming one, 80 that he is nominated by a very
da,tering vote, and which would seem tc indi
cate an increased popularity. A malignant
faction, however, is trying to get up conven.
ton " defeat him, but they will signally fail.
10 the meantime, Mr.. Julian is actively en-
gagged 10 stumpiDg bis district, making at least
two speeches day. We trust be will be re-
turned 10 bis seat here, as he IL one Of our best
and lncsi reliable members.
