From carefully prepared estimates, based upon
the amount of business done by the companies
now in operation and giving them an equal share
of the business between competing points, the
company confidently believe that large and re-
munerative dividends can be made and they
further believe that, taking into consideration the

nearly all the business along the line, which will
place the stock ut high premium, and make it
one of the hest Investments to be found. q

The company propose to commence work at an

DEMoCRATIc JUDICIAL COEvEErIoN7-A BIO
Fiuiir on HASD.-A Democratic convention,
for the Nomination OF n Common Ploas Judge,
TO MI out Judge Kennons term, met at Barnes
VILE last Wednesday The convention bnlloted
i67 times, and, unable TO mike nomination,
adjourned until to-day T1iirsdny) The candi-
dates voted for were Swaney Of Belmont, White
OF Guernsey, and Way OF Monroe Each County
stood fi,st by It's own candidate. Warren Town
ship this County, we are told, coquettcd n little
with Guernsey.
Belmont stoutly maintains her right TO finish
out Judge Kennons term; Monroe claims that
she gives the big maJoritics what particular
claims Guernsey sets up we have not heard
The fight wakes warm and promises TO be inter-
esting. What the result Of this scramble will be
is hard to predict; but we are inclined to think
Monroe will win. She Is allied with Guernsey
in the election OF Senator; Lawrence is the can
dldate, and will probably throw his influence
for Way, which Will decide the matter.
Heaven help the litgants and attorneys, let
who may be chosen, among those three.
