Mr.. ED1roa We have come in possess
ion Of fact which ought to be promulga.
ted. During all this summer which has
been so fatal, especially to children, our
friends Drs. Hobbie & Graham have no.
lost patient, which speaks volumes moi
only for their skill and judgment in treat
ment, but also for the mild and gentle means
which they Homeopathically employ.
The above was handed US with request
for its publication, by on, Of our prominent
citizens. The fact which it makes public
is one upon which Drs. Hobbie & Graham
may we'll plume themselves. In all the con
Aicts of systems of medicine as well as Of
government, the untechnical people apply
but one test of merit, and that is-succass.
Judged by that standard, the system of Drs
H. & G. is either fortunately or By its mer'
its, entitled to confidence.

PRIMARY ELECTI0ks.-It is understood
that an effort will be made at the ensuing
convention to establish as q rule for making
nominations in this county for The future,
the Primary Election System, doing away
with the trickery Of the caucus, and the
numbering machinery of the county conven-
ton. The ma liner in which the Primary
Election effects it purpose is substantially as
follows: Polls are opened in each town
ship under the direction of the township
committee, at a certain stated time, at which
the voter indicates who, (voting for the per-
sons Directly he wishes nominated for GER
tain offices. He votes for no delegates to
express his will in county convention, but
expresses it himself by the ballot he
deposits. The returns of these elections
are transmitted from the several townships
to the county committee, whose duty it is to
open and canvass them, and announce as
the candle of the party those persons
who have 8 plurality Of the whole number
of woes cat.
The lvantages Of the system are that it
secures fuller expression of the preferen-
ees of the people that it recognizes no
delegates, as under the caucus system, who
may, and very often do misrepresent, mis-
construe or w;lfully reverse the will Of those
whe elect them; and that it does away with
the trickery, deception and decentralization
which inseparately connected with the eau.
Gus, and which makes it an instrument in
the hands Of designing and corrupt men to
secure nomination TO office, unattainable by
fair appeal to the people. The system Of
primary elections is in operation in several
counties iu Iowa, and is working to the
satisfaction Of everybody. In our neigh.
boring county Of Benton, Republican nomi.
natio IS for legislative and county Office 5
wele recently made by poll Of over 100
votes in its primary elections. Probably
not half that plumber Of the rank and file
of the party could have bee induced 10 at.
tend eaucuses, and if they had, would have
had no guaranty that their wishes or pref.
erences would in every case have had their
proper weight and influence in the county
convention. We earnestly hope that the
now system will be adopted by the Republicans
of OR county aad to that end we invite the
coo peration OF every member of the party
who pr ,fsrs fair dealing to intrigue.
