PRIMARY Mr~iisg.-The Nemin nations
for Township Omcers.
In response to the call published in
the REGISTER of yesterday the Demo
Gratis of this city met in their respective
townships lost evening, for the purpose
of nominating township tickets. 1t is
with feeling of pride and qualification
that we call attention to their nomina-
lions, as given below. Taken rs a
whole, we believe the candidates
ro be as good in every respect
~ conld have been chosen; their DOm-
nation reflects credit on their party,
and their service will promote the
highest interests Of the county. We
are glad to believe that nothing stands
and file of the party will but do their
duty. They combine the requisites of
popularity, capacity and integrity, and
An earnest effort on the part of the
Democracy will secure their triumphant
.ncces, We can safely defy the oppo-
sition to put better men into the field.
Indeed it will be by the merest
chance, if their nominees approximate
to ours in excellence, and we have the
satisfaction of knowing that they are
compelled by Gnr action to bring out
their hest material, if they desire to
make even a tolerable race.
We now call upon the Democrats to
rally manfully to the support of their
nominees. But another day will
clapsc before the election. Let it be
devoted to hard work in preparing
for Thursdays business. Although
We are confrssedly and largely in the
majority the election of some of our
candidates may he jeoparded by undue
apathy on our part. Vigilance alone
will ensure success. Let us spare no
rffort to carry on to completion, the
work already so well begnn.
