DISTRICT AND COUNTY TICKET

We place the names of the gentlemen put
in nomination by the District and County
Conventions, on Tuesday last, at the head
of our columns this week. The conven-
tons were composed of fair and honest
men. and were not liable to the charge Of
being packed. The nomination for Senator
is good one. Mr.. Maxson was a useful
member of the last House of Representa-
tives, and gained considerable notoriety for
his opposition to humbugs and all combina-
tons that looked ''fishy." 1t is useless to
say that Perry B. Maxson will be our next
State Senator. There is not man in the
district that can beat him.
G. V. Eskridge was nominated for Rep
resentative, for Emporia, Pike and Center.
If every man, woman and baby in the dis
trict hadn't had "dicker' with Charli,
and was not acquainted with him, "lew
brief remarks" might appropriately be made
"on the present OCCASION by "your hum,
BILE servant" But "sich" seems entirely
superAuous. Mr.. Eskridge was always in
his place last winter. watching the interests
of his constituents. He will be one of thu
gentlemen from Lyon" in the next House
He is an indefatigable worker.
The nominees on the county ticket
Noyes Spicer for Probate Judge, D. w
Appleby for Sheriff, p. H. Hunt for Cerl
of District Court, ]. M. Miller for Superin
tendent of Public Instruction, E. B. Kir
kendall for Surveyor. Charlie Lynch and ]
H. Hunt for Commissioners - are good
honorable men, worthy of the confidenc
and support of the people; and the goo
Judgment of the convention in nominatin
them. will be backed up by the voters o
the day of election.

Lawrence Republican.

Some of the Union papers and election
eerers have been saying that the staunch old
Lawrence Republican was indirectly lend
ing it's aid to the Mongrels. Here is the
way it supports PARROT in very able arti-
Gle last week:
Parrot did not get the Brigadiers com
mission, and Lane has not yet been elected
President. But, Parrot now comes before
the psupip within ntne nrnnIhs OF hls propJ-
sails 10 Lane. and asks to be elected +" Con
gre= on the ground Of Ei opposition TO Lane!
He denodnces Lane. He holds him up to
scorn. He ridicules his abilities and oneers
at his military prowess. He accuses him of
corruption and tyranny. Aud yet this very
man, Parrot was read to support for Pres
ideut Of The United States! He was ready to
commit the vast and untold interests of this
great nation. the welfare Of its teeming mill
lions, ave, the estinies of Freedom itself,
into the hands of an incompetent and un
worthy man, provided only that Mr.. Par
rott could get paltry Brigadier Generals
commission! Is Lane corrupt? Parrot was
for elevating him to position requiring the
highest purity ofcharacter to worthIy fill.
Is Lane dishonest? Parrott was for putting
| the revenues Of the nation into his hands. Is
he incompetent? Parrot was for commit
ting the welfare of the whole country into
his keeping. Is he Military Charlatan?
Parrott was for making him COMMANDMENTS
Chief of the Army and Navy! Is he ambi-
tious? Parrott was for eevatihg him to the
! pinnacle of power and fame. Indeed, so
completely was Mr. Parrot absorbed and
eaten up with desire for that Brigadier's
commission. that he was ready for that "fa-
vor," to "cheerfully render this man whom
he now so bitterly denounces, lang support
in his power'' And yet now he comes he
fore the people of Kansas. and asks them to
send him to Congress because he is opposed
to Lane! Did presumption ever go further?
Opposed to Lane? Why opposed to him?
Because he is bad man. or because you did
not get that Brigadier's commission? OPP
posed TO Lane? and yet ready to make him
President! Opposed to Lane? and yet ready
to make combination with him at any time

Financial.

The principal feature ofthe money market
during the past week, says the Leavenworth
Times, has been the extraordinary and I'M
precedented advance in gold, and conse
quently proportionate rise in old demand
notes. There is little doing at the banks,
and the market may be quoted dull. Being
so far from the financial centers of the coun-
try, it is impossible for our money institu-
tons to give any reliable figures as to the
buying prices of gold and demand notes,
and the st. Louis rates may be regarded as
about correct for this locality. Gold was
held nominally at 80 premium, and notes at
Is. though there was no disposition evinced
to buy at these figures. Our last advices
from New York are to Wednesday, when the
highest rate paid was, for gold $50. and for
old noes 90. St. Louis 30@3I buying,
and 33@34 selling. Where this thing is to
stop. ii we're useless to conjecture. We are
surprised AT nothing now. Thursdays Dem
ocrat says:
Articles of produce seem to keep pace with
the appreciation Of gold, and all manufacture
ed articles, domestic and foreign, are alike
tending upward. Speculation, too, is being
developed in these products to a considerable
extent, for the first time since the war began
and will doubtless be carried to excess, if thu
spectators can succeed in creating panic
npon which to operate. The prospect to pro
ducers, however, is good, especially to then
who have debts to pay that were contrac tee
before the present initiation. The enhanced
value of products will more than compens
ate for the depreciation of currency.
