COUNTY CONVENTION.

Elsewhere the reader will find call for
the County Convention. The primary
meetings in the several townships are to be
held on the 9th inst. On that day Morris
county will have decided, as far as she has
the power, who are to fill our State Offices
and represent Us the next two years in
Congress.
This is the most important Convention
Morris county has ever held, and there
should be at these primary meetings free
interchange of opinions, and we are in favor
of the township meetings instructing their
delegates to the County Convention who to
vote for as delegate to the State Convention.
Instruct, then, that delegate who to vote
for as Morris county's FIRST choice for Gov
ernor, Member of Congress, &c. Let the
voters of Kansas this time designate their
choice and not the politicians, and our word
for it Kansas will not again be cussed With

Let these regiments be raised, and as fast
as companies are organized, mustered in,

Blunt for duty. In this way, by October

we shall have secured couple or more
regiments to replace those Colorado and
California volunteers, who will be mustered
out in Colorado and New Mexico, during
the ensuing six months.
