getting "good ready on" for the approach

Gov. Booth anything like formidable can
didate for the United States SENATE, against
his own wishes and pledges, are exceeding
" slim and it may now be safely assam
ed that those who have been endeav.
oriug to use the Governor for their own
purposes will receive their labor for their
pains. AS a rule both political parties will
maintain their organizations intact, each
striving to put forward good men as candi-
dates, and the cotest for Senatorship will
be not for this or that man, but whether a
Democrat or Republican shall be elected
