OUR TICKET.

Al the head of CIR columns to-day will
be found the Republican State Ticket,
ticket that no good republican can in any
way DO dissatisfied with. 1t is one of the
= best and strongest tickets that Wisconsin
has ever had. and we are proud of it. 1t
will prove terrible setback, and terror
to the hitherto "unterrifed." We are
glad to note that the people have taken a
decided interest in the caucuses and con-
sentions, preparatory to the State Conven
sion; ana. an a result. the best delegation
shat Madison ever saw was sent to nomi-
nate our State officers.
The contest for Governor was short,
sharp and decisive, and, as matter Of
course, there were many disappointed at
abe result. Yet, when that result became
known, the disappointed ones took hold
and worked like men. worked hard for the
republican principles. With such a con.
vention as that we have perfect confidence,
and also in the nominations they have
made and we rest satisfied that the right
men have been chosen to run our State
government, men in wEom the people will
, trust. Not one Of our nominees hiss ever
been known to betray trust. They have
Secn fully tested, and proved to be men
true to the very core. Again we say, We
are proud of them.
Z. G. Washburn, the republican nomi-
nee for Governor, is well known through
out the State. His reputation for honesty
and fair dealing, bothras private citizen
and public officer, has always been unim-
peachable; bis political integrity above
Tepr0ach. No better proof Of the above
is needed or can be found, than from the
fact that he has been in public life nearly
twenty years, and during that time he has
served his constituents faithfully in every
respect, even his enemies having naught
TO say against him Gen. C. C. Washburn
represents the principles of the republican
party in the State of Wisconsin, and the
Feople will find as Governor the General
will always be true TO them; as he has
been in the past, so we have reason to be
iiese he will be in the future No man has
better public record than G. c. Wash
burn.
II. II. Petit is the nominee for Lieuten-
ant Governor. Also man of sound prin-
ciple and unquestonable integrity. His
qualifications and ability render him fit
subject for the sufferings of the republican
party Of our State.
The present officers oe the State,
Llywelyn Breese, H. Betz, Stephen S. Bar
low, Samuel W. Fallows, G. w. Wheeler
and o. johnson, nave all received the
strongest Endorsement frou the conven-
ton, and were nominated by reclamation.
E. w. Reyes was elected as chairman Of
the State Central Committee.
We are proud Of, and satisfied with the
above ticket, and when it is brought be-
fore the people next November every re-
publican and many democrats will indorse
the action of the convention. Stronger
and better men could not be found to fill
our offices Of trust if each individual man
in the State had had his particular choice.
The convention did well in presenting
such men to the people of Wisconsin, and
they deserve the applause Of the party,
not only in this State but every State in
the Union. They have labored to bring
men before the people in whom the people
could trust, and they have succeeded to
the entire satisfaction of the republican
party.
