D6mocratic CountY Ticket.

J
County Convention, The candidates will
compare favorsbly, for character aud quail
ifications, with any heretofore selected by
the Democracy of Columbia. They are
generally men Of experience, ability and
integrity aud will make very efficient Off
GERS. The nominations we're all made by
acclamation.
Being modest man and somewhat in
terested in the Senatorial nomination, we
will only copy what the Editor of the
Star Of The North says on that subjec -
"Hon. LEVI l.. TATE, was recommended
by the Convention as candidate for State
Senator from this county. Should he
succeed in getting the Conference nomina-
ton his election in the District is sure, and
he would make, with his legislative expe.
rience, an active and energetic member of
the Senate"
Hon. JOHN G. ELLIS, of Montour, and
Hon. GEO. d. JACKSON, of fSullivan, were
nominated for Members of Assembly. -
These gentleman were members last year
worthy, honest and competent--having
served to the general satisfaction of their
constituency. Their majority, in the Dis
trict, cannot fall short of $1,000
JESSE COLEMAN, Esq, received the
nomination for Prothonatary and Clerk of
the several Courts Of Columbia county -
Mr.. Coleman has proven himself man of
great popularity with the people, or he
could not have secured the nomination
over his competitor-Mr. Eyerly-who
has discharged the duties of that Office to
general satisfaction for over thirty years.
The new nominee is good English and
Germ an enthusiastically and morally an
excellent genteman--and will no doubt
prove an efficient officer.
[Mr. Eyerly's letter of declination to
the Convention, is printed with the pro-
ceedings, and reflects credit upon the head
and heart of the retiring veteran Prothon-
otary.]
Col. JOHN G. FREEZE, is the nominee
for Register and Recorder. AS he is also
q somewhat modest man and connected
with this paper, we copy again from the
Editor of the Star. "JoHN G. FREEZE,
Esq, received the nomination for Regis
ter and Recorder, which office he now fills
as Deputy, without opposition. For this
Office no better selection could have been
made, making the action of the Convention
highly commendable. The people of the
county can congratulate themselves on hav.
ing an honest, upright and sound Democrat
as their candidate for Register g. Recorder
one who will attend punctually to the
duties Of the Office. He will be worthy
successor ofthe present incumbent, DANIEL
LEE: His election will be by not less than
1900 majority should he have an opponent
on the Republican ticket"
DANIEL McHENRY, Esq, the candidate
for Treasurer was nominated over very
worthy gentlcman--Henry Bittenbender,
Esq, who declined coming into the Con-
vention-and thi, is tangible evidence of
the estimation he is held with his follow
citizens Mr.. McHenry has all the ele-
ments of popularity and the requisite quail.
ifications for an efficient officer. Young
and active, polite, energetic, honest AID
good accountant, he must make first
rate County Treasurer. A decendent Of the
large and respectable stock of McHenry's
! (whose name is legion) and all sound
democrats, his nomination will give great
strength to our ticket.
THOMAS ]. VANDERsLIcE, Esq, the
candidate for Commissioner, is thrifty
Farmer, good Magistrate and an unwa-
vering Democrat. He brings all the COM
bined advantages Of mature Judgement,
honesty Of purpose and practical ability
into the Board. Esqire Vanderslce will
succeed WILLIAM LAMoN, Esq, who has
won the reputation of being Que of the best
Commissioners we ever had and we trust
he will prove suitable successor, 10 the
retiring President of the Board.
JOHN r YoHE, Esq. who lately retired
from that Office, has again been nominated
for Auditor. With bis past experience in
his favor, and high record as democrat
in whom there is no guile, the name of
Mr.. Yohe will add strength to our ticket
and make the majority almost unmerci-
fully great at the general Election. Woe
to the "poor abolition nags" who may
risk their lives and fortunes against the
COLUMBIA DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES.
