had that judgment Of about @2lJOo0

his political creed. and some Of his per-

For Judge Of Probate, john E.
Robinson Of Lansing Is the candidate.
John told Us last night th.t the peode.
Of the position are 50 very small that
he cannot really afford to be '.sAovn
up" in connection with the politics Of
the county. aud asked q. to let hin Of

Mr.. T. Kilgore, WIS nominated for.
County Surveyor. liz said he didn':>
va mt the pl.cs but it was thrown upon
hiu. Some one mentioned lawyer Ca
rey as suitable candidate, but anoth.
said he was too young, that no sixty
day" man need. apply, and 81 the
weight Of additional responsibility WAS
placed upon the shoulders Of the old
veteran John Brophy received the
nomination for Court Comn,issioner,-
a position for which the republicans
will, VIC presume, prescnt no candi-
date, so John will lave no one to cou--
tend against.
|. w. T. wilkins, is the nominee for
County Commissioner Of thi. district.
Ills business relations with Sylvester
Smith, and his well.known leadership
Ola crowd UNNECESSARILY below him,
constitute the chief objections to be.
urged against his election.
For the district DOW represented by
n e Bisbee, an old gentleman by thu
u .mc Of Ray, is the c,njidate. Last
year IT, was candidate Tor Clerk Of
the Court, and this year for Judge Of
Probate, but Was pacified VIC believe
with what was done for him. We
know 50 little Of him We cannot With
propriety say anyt ing Of his gu .lidcA-
ti,hs.
The convention was not so strong IL
any Of the vital elements Of character
and ability as the one which met 1t:
Brownsville last year. The proper
ton IF republicans in it WAS l':ss;
While the representatives, of the ;'ba.l'
element" were far M re NUN Gro 1s,-
and especially was this true Of the city
Of Austin. The ticket as whole will
fall fit upon the Voters Of the couaty,,
exciting no enthusiasm whatever,
FIRST because gifts conspicuous want Of
mental power, there being no man on.
it who is recognized al in any respect
possessed Of superior ability, Of at
tainmcnts, aud second, for the reason.
that only fracti "a Of the people wero
by the convention. Tho
prominent towns of Austin, Nevada,
Udolpho, Dexter, Window, and Sar-
gent; sent no delegates whatever, all
will not feel bound by the action Of
the Convention. The present is an
suspicious moment, aud if rightly
republicans may vim . great
victory. Let there be one grand spon-
taneous uprising Of the psople in tho
interest not of one man, nor of set Of
men, not under tho dictatiou Of one
man, not to adopt '.slate'' previously
prepared, and to work for il right or
wrong, but to consult together, to act
and succeed. 1t remaiss to
be seen whether We are worthy Of the
splendid opportunity which is before
