Our Candidates.

In nominating II. w. Mackey for
State Treasurer we believe the Re.
publican Convention did what was
eminently right in response to the
popular demand. The canvass for
the position was open, free and un-
trammelled. Mr.. Mackey and his
friends started out recognizing and
respecting the claims Of all other ns-
pirants, and ready to obey the popu-
lar decision of the organization. let
who might be nominated. IL was
not only n manly but sagacious
line of policy to pursure, and the re
suit has established its wisdom. The
people recognized its fairness while
Mr.. Mackey has reaped its benefits.
His nomination and the manner in
which il was done, is indeed high
honor: an honor which will be
worthily worn in the future by n
continued faithful performance OF
duty such IA has made the admins
tration rs the financial officer of the
State benefit to the people and n
credit TO the Commonwealth. We
have nothing to fear in the canvass
before us. with this man as our can
didate. His record is open to the peo
pie. We are ready to have it scan
ned-ready to have every portion Of
il laid bare, because the man that il
known by his acts as an official, tn,
greater will be his popularity as {
Republican candidate. And Just a,
faithful as he has been in the per
formance of his official duties, so ha,
he been true to his party obligations
We have no Republican frmer thar
he; no adherent ready to make great
er sacrifices for the success of hi,
principles, and none more ready tC
obey the will Of the majority of hi,
party. Had he not received th,
nomination, we believe he would TO
day be as anxious and sincere in hi,
efforts TO elect tho candidate Of hi,
party rs he can possibly be TO secure
his own success.
Judge Gordons nomination. while i
surprised the eastern delegation, anC
was not expected 10y the northwest, i,
not illogical or unfair. but is one o
those cmincntly right results which
only become fully appreciated for thei
value. when the facts surrounding i
nrc all known. He is from Il section o
the State not represented on the Su
prcmc Bench, and yet il is n very i'm
portant locality, with litigation. con
stantly being appealed to the highe
courts, OF the utmost value. The oi
regions now furnish some of the mos
important suits argued in the Suprem,
Court involving land titles and right
to other property which require per
sonnl knowledge of the Judges who ar,
to hear such appeals. Judge Gordon
nomination wi fill this demand, whicl
added To the fact that he already hn
experience on the bench, and is n law
yer of fine culture, will make him al
acceptable candidate to the people q
his region rs well rs to those Of the en-
tire State.
Such nre our candidates. They ar
men of whom We are proud. and will
them as standard bearers we have u,
fear of the result Of the contest hecor
us. All that we want is every Rcpubli
can to do his duty, to be true 10 hi
principles, and the result will be al
that they can dcsire..--HarrisJu Jou,

ed to his thousand acre farm in Ross
county. They were fertile acres.
and brought forth thousand fold.
lie had barns, and storehouses, and
cribs in abundance, but it was soon
apparent to the agricultural of our
our Cincinnatus that a .pig pen
was needed, and a carpenter was
summoned from Chiliccthe as az
chitect and builder. lie arrived in
due time, and spent the day with Mr.
Allen in selecting the site. Night
came on without decision, and be
was ordered to return the next day,
which was spent without deciding
the momentous question. lie was
ordered to return the following
morning, and after vigorous canvass

Strengthened himself to his six feet
