not have selected a better man for
Register.
Dan. +. Foote who is nominated
for Prosecuting Attorney, was two
years ago a candidate for the State
Legislature-and lost the election
through the town Of Spaulding cast
ing her Democratic vote for the candi-
date from this district. In that por-
ton Of the county where he is best
known, he ran ahead of his ticket. -
He is well read lawyer and an eff
Gent speaker. His election will in
sure the prompt and efficient perform
ance Of the criminal business of the
county.
John j. Wheeler, candidate for Cir
cult Court Commissioner, is widely
and favorably known throughout the
county as one of the leading members
of the bar. He has an extended law
practice, which he has gained by abil-
ity and close application to business.
He has held the Office for two years,
and his nomination is equivalent to
an election.
Lewis Lnfiler, nominee for County
Surveyor and Drs. Rouse and North
rup, nominees for Coroners, are all
men of character and ability, and al
though they are not nominated for the
most important Offices, their names
add strength to the ticket.
The Convention has faithfully per-
formed its duty by nominating our
best men, and if we do our duty and
perform little earnest work for the
ticket, we shall roll up a majority that
will surprise ourselves and astonish
our opponents. The Republicans have
nominated an expediency ticket. They
demanded only one qualification in a
candidate, availability. The result
was that they did not get anything
more than they asked, and precious
little of that. We shall have occasion
to speak Of their ticket hereafter.

The DEAcoN's Cow.-A contributor

a certain deacon who was once the
best of men, but by nature very iras-
chile. A COW was so exceedingly dis
orderly, as the deacon was attemptirg
to milk her one morning, that the old
Adam got the better of him, and he
vented his excited feelings in volley
Of excavations very undeaconish in
their character. At this moment the
good deacon's pastor appeared unex-
pectedly on the scene, and announc, d
his presence by saying, "Why, deacon!
can it bep Are you swearing Pr
"Well, parson,' replied the deacon,

by but the truth is, l never shall en-
joy religion as long as l keep this
