selves into q scouting party Tor the capture Of

WE find our farmer friends throughout
the County are well pleased with the
change for this year in making our NOM
nations for county offices and for the
General Assembly. They think our tick
ct will be formed with less general trou-
bic and connection and be in much less
danger of preiu1ice engendered before
hand against the candidates. On these
accounts they think our nominees will
start ont with less hostility among our
own friends. Phis is very desirable of
course.
Our nominating convention will be held
in Canton, op Tuesday, July 2lst, and the
delegates are to be chosen by the friends
in each election precinct on Saturday af-
terRoon or evening, July 18th. They will
meet for this purpose at the usual place
of holding elections and organize by choos-
ing chairman and secretary and proceed
to select delegates either TiUa roce, or by
ballot as each meeting may determine.
We shall soon publish the number Of DEL
egates to which each precinct. ia entitled,
and we invite from each Central Commit
tseman notices giving the hour of meet
ing and IN sOme cases the place of the
same. .sr1 If
