OER CANDIDATES.

The Republican County Convention
does certainly deserve all praise for the
excellent selections 1t has made IN the
nominations for County officers
Mp. GILBERT ". BURNET the nomi-
nee for County Clerk is one of our oldest
and most esteemed citizens, and has held
the same Office once before to the entire
satisfaction Of his constituents he saw
the errors of his ways in politics as soon
as his former party had induced the re-
bellion, became an active war Democrat,
and is now entirely free from these fet-
ters by taking new departure" from
Democracy altogether and joiping-as
any sensible honest Democrat ought to
do-the great Republican party OF our
country There is not the least doubt
that Mr.. Burnet will be elected by fiat
tering majority.
Mr.. o. r. BACON probably was never
more astonished in his life, than when he
was informed of his nomination for Co.
Superintendent of Schools, but submit
ted gracefully to the unavoidable distinc>
ton.
Our citizens, our teachers, our children
all know AIr. Bacon, and only to respect
him for his high educational requirements,
to honor him for the immense good he
has already done ior our young men and
madens and to praise him for his homes
~ Of purpose, his int egrity as a citizen
and his great love for and entire devotion
to the elevation of our youths by the
best possible educational efforts.
Mr.. DIN L. ZINNs, whose nomina-
ton for Clerk of the Circuit Court was
as unsolicited as that Of any other of the
candidates, is also one Of our Oldest and
most respected citizens has filled and is
Low filing the office of Justice of Peace
to the entire satisfaction Of our citizens
and is as capable to attend to the duties
Of the office OF Clerk Of the Circuit Court
as its present incumbent. He certainly
deserves the most efficient support o.
every good citizen OF Manitowoc.
The First Assembly District has done
nobly IN nominating Mr.. PETER REU-
THEIR of Centerville as its Representa-
| tive be is honest and capable in every
respect, and will prove an attentive aud
active member of the next Legislature
The Second Assembly District dele
gates were almost equally divided in their
choice and Mr.. GEORGE POWELL Of
Kossuth had but one majority against
/ Mr.. 0. S. Davis, one of the best men
of Cato Mr. Powell is an active, stragt t
/ forward, well educated farmer, has filed
several offices with great efficiency and
knows the wants and will take care of the
Interests Of OH. county to the best of his
ability.
The Third-and aside from our City
the darkest appearing-Assenibly Dis
trict of our County has unanaimously
selected Mr. \. d. JONES Of this City as
their choice for member Of the Asse mbly.
We readily acknowledge that friend
|
| Madison; his opponent has been there
| before and ever efficient and successful
in the interests of his party but Mr..
Jones is well known all over the District,
has been a resident Of this county ever
since he can remember, and has flledevery
| office in our municipal administration as
Village President and City Aldermen to
the full satisfaction of our electors; be
sides he represents large real estate, man.
ufacturiug and shipping interests and vii
attend to the general interests of ou,
City and County as well as any man il

hope that every Republican will do his
whole duty to eject not only Mr.. Jone:
but all the Republican nominees, sthey

port not only Of every Republican bu
of every voter who has at heart the vel
fare of bis country. his home, his. family
and his friends. So NAV it be.
