County Offices.

The question as to who shall be

ambitious ones. We believe all
the present incumbents are candi-
dates for reelection that they
have all done wcll-for themselves
land prospered as no other class
have.
This fact naturally fills the field
with candidates, whose strengt h
before the people depends largely
upon the filthy lucre they scatter
among the wire-workers, to manu-
facture fer them public opinion.
Yet we have no unkind word for
any. Some of them have been SOL
diers, and some have not yet as
the time for making nominations
approaches they will all be vehem-
emily declaring the war not over,
the ex-soldier again fighting its
battles, and tina stay at home patri-
OF ready to enlist. The war now is
such as they all like, involving no
danger of bloodshed, but opportu-
tiles for much plumber.
Such being the facts it is highly
probable there will be rival sets Of
republican candidates in the field
for nearly all tie Offices, both be-
fore and after their convention
Democrats should ally themselves
With neither of the. rival factions,
but permit them to fight their own
battles and bury their own dead.

lowest under Republican rule was
