THE ELEoTTON ON MONDAY.

Although there is, but one set Of candidate
in the field for County Commissioners. thu
election ofnext Monday ought not therefore Il
be neglected, or lightly regarded, by our party
brethren throughout the county; nor, indeed
ibylthose of our fellow citizens who are opposed
TO the two candidates in political belief, but
who have, Notwithstanding, q disposition to see
the affairs of the county administered in an
honest, economical and thorough business-like
manner. An eleetioR at this time and for no
more thaH the Commissioners, with but one
ticket before the people, cannot, we are very
well aware, be made the occasion for that de-
gree Of partisan activity which always charac-
terizes general county elections The ticket
gisfnot expected to receias anything near the
full vote of the county, for obvious reasons
But we hope and trust that our Democratic
friends in every Precinctwil devote so much
sof their time, on Monday, to the cause, as will
be necessary for thedepositand record of their
votes This much is rightfully expected of
them, and there ought not to be failure of
this party duty in a single instance where it
shall be possible for the voter to attend the
polls
1.-THE two gentlemen in candidacy, JOHN M
e6ANNADY and JAMES b. DUKE are widely
and favOraby known throughout Boise county
sfhey are honorable men, substantial mer-
chants, shrewd and prudent in business mat
tiers, and enjoy the full confidence Of their fell
low citizens, in their respective communities,
beyond question on any side. They are, in ev-
cry sense, capable and trustworthy Against
neither of them has, the tongue, of SANDER
charged the commission of any act contrary to |
the public welfare. Mr. CANNADY has impen- |
etrably stood the test Of close, sharp, very /
scrutinizing, partisan investigation and criti-
gcisln, as member and President of the Board I
OF Commissioners, for three years, and this,
Boos during periods when the bare Indication
of anirregularity would have been, in acrimo-
glious party antagonism. denounced as absolute
Intention or the Preparation of wrong or
fraud Having stood this severe test, the vot-
eFs,of the county but reflect honor upon them
selves in continuing to honor him. Of the
character and qualifications of the candidate
for Coroner, DR.. JAMES HEALY, we have mol
need to make special mention in this place,
1t viii suffice to say just what every one ac-
auaipted with him knows--that he is a
true gentleman, worthy the confidence of
every citizen, and that his name also re-
fleets honor upon the ticket And for the
care which the Convention observed in the
selection of such gentlemen as candidates, the
i eMneFacy haze ample cause to congratulated
themselves and their Representatives in that
body; and they ought, in simple recognition of.
the good service of their delegates, to make it
d; duty-nOt to be neglected or shirked-to at
tend at the polls on Monday, and there use ev-a
ery honorable means to swell the vote to- the
utmost Let this be done in every Precinct
