County School superintendent.
We have a few plain words to say

We have few plain words to say to
the Republicans of this county concerning
the candidates for School Supt.
Mr.. B. N. MINER is the regular Re-
publican nominee, and being man OF
good principles. excellent habits, and fine
education, we, can see no good reason
why the republicans should not support
him at the polls.
Mr.. CHAs. SMITH, is as everybody
knows, an out-and out Democrat, and his
running as aD independent candidate is a
mere subterfuge to catch Republicaa
votes. The democrats made no nomina-
ton that he might have a clear field. Ii
is not our intention to disparage Mr..
SMITH in the least. He is warm per-
sonal friend of ours, and, aside from his
politics, we believe him well qualified by
education and experience to discharge
the duties of the office TO which he as
pires. But this is county giving 500
Republican majority, and we say let the
Republicans hold the offices. If we have
not, in the great mass of republicans in
this county. men good enough or suffi-
GENTLY qualified to hold the offices we
had better import some at once.
This is late day for republicans to
oppose their regular nominee. They
should have opposed him in convention.
There was no strife there-no candidate
strongly opposing him-and Mr.. MINER
received an almost unanimous nomina-
ton.
Many republicans propose to support
Mr. SMITH because he is their friend, they
like him, and he is a good fellow. Now
we have a good many warm friends who
are democrats, we like them personally,
and they are all good fellows, but we
don't intend to vote them into office
when we have republican friends who are
equally friendly and just as deserving.
Nor can they reasonably expect it.
And we think the republicans who are
so earnestly canvassing for Mr.. SMIrH,are
heaping Goals of fire upon their own
heads. The time may come when they
will seek nomination at the hands of
the republican party, and getting it, will
expect, nay demand, as they well might,
that republicans should support them on
party grounds. How would the coat fit
on their own backs.
REPUBLICANS, think of this matter and
vote as your political faith directs.

JOLLIFICATION.

The Hudson Democrat. last week, says that
few of the choice spirits who managed
the Republican Senatorial convention, enjoyed
i" little good time" at the Chaplin Hall, after
the departure OF those irritable delegates from
Pierce and Polk counties but we regret the
inability of our "local" TO furnish more than
the following glimpse Of the entertainment :;
Gus proposed to toast; "Our dear depart
ed friends" to which Uncle John responded /:
" Awfully dear for these hard times" Hold
made little speech commencing =" To be
or not TO be successful, is the only question
worthy the attention of a true poll tician."
The following appropriate song was sung
TO a chorus of rattling glasses and uproarious
applause:
Those greenhorns came down, so exulting and bold
And their number of noses boastingly told
l ike stalks in a cornheld when summer is green
They proudly this morn at the court house were
seen.
But Moses the little. Frank, Horace and Guss,
Bamboozled them all without fuslian or fuss
Like green stalks in the field when autumn has
flown
Already these greenhorns have wilted and gone
Fore our sturdy henchman stood near when they
passed
And whispered word in tile ear of the last.
How quickly their planning does nothing avail
For who can withstand the persuasive John Dale ?
What though the victims are loud in their wall,
And fierce in their curses of HONEST John Dale.
Let them swear and be damne till doomsday draws
nigh,
All the votes that we need we are able TO buy.
The local of the Democrat was unfortu-
nate in not hearing the next song. 1t was
sung by the entire " ring" with great gusto.
The performance was loudly cheered by all
except CoMsTocK, who from some unknown
reason failed to "s0e the exact point"
John Comstock my 10, John,
This is a strange attempt
To run for office here, John,
Your money must be spent -
Go deep into your pockets, John,
Votes must be bought, you know,
And bless you, John, We'll work for you,
John Comstock, jolly 10.
John Comstock, my 10. John,
You know we never shirk,
You have ever paid us well, John,
To do your dirty work.
Wen gladly see you through, john
To the Senate you shall go
Provided that your stamps hold out,
John Comstock, jolly 10,
John COmstock, my 10, John,
You spent fortune quite.
To help us run the district, John,
For HUMPHREY, versus WHITE.
And should you fail in this, John,
And up Salt River go,
We will STEAL you ticket cheap,

The WAY THEY ARE GONG TO ELECT
CoMsToCK.-We learn from good au-

the balance of the 400 are TO be fur
