THE TWO TlCKETs.
By the recent Union Republican Ca1veu-
ton, GEoReE RoILrrr, Of Madison Township,
was nominated for Clerk Of the District
Court. NOBLE WARwlcK, of Charleston
township, was nominated for Recorder.
These men are offered to the voters of La
county, and for them their suffrage is asked.
These candidates are both young men, but
they are honest, upright, industrious, fntelE.
gent, and every way quali6sd for the places
for which they are offered. They, VOC, are
soldiers, private soldiers, Of long and gallant
service, and each bears the marksin wounds
upon their bodies, Of their warm devotion to
the country and the Gag.
GEoRGE RoLLEfr was private in the Sew
enth Regiment, and from the beginning to
the md of the war, save when disabled by
wounds, was with that veteran regiment in
it, noble service. He has not DoERR's ex-
perience in clerical matters. Had he stAidat
home, as DorRR did, and helped organize
Butternut>peace-at >any>pric clubs, and gone
to the Chicago Convention Is DoERR did, and
been . Peace Democrat, - DoExR was, and
had DoEER's chances 70 acquire clerical ex'
perience, we should not have had to make
this concession. But RoLLKrr is one o.
those Germans who gave their whole hearts
and love TO the country Of their adoption
and who formed SO large an element in the
grand army OF the Union. He didn't stay q
home, and he didn't join the sympathizinl
Democracy in their love for slavery and trea'
son; and he wasn't Copperhead; and hs
didn't go to the Chicago Convention; and he
never thought or said the war was failure
and he never gave political support to the
cause Of rebellion and Of the enemies Of hi
country, and he would have sooner had liml
severed from limb than to have done it. HI
vas true to his native German love of liberty
and true TO the flag of the Union. He has
however, large experience as clerk, aud i

NOBLE WARWICK. of Charleston township
