THE COUNTY TICKET.


7HE-cUUWTY TICKET
There are but two county officers to
elect this fall in Mobiles county, a Coun-
ty Attorney and a Commissioner for
the Third District. Mr.. Soule and Mr..
Durfee are the candidates, and 10th
have been tried, and have proven them
selves capable and honest officers. Per-
sonally we have nothing to say against
Mr.: Carrier and Mr.. Bennett, who are
on the Democratic ticket. Last year
we supported MI. Carrier on temper
ance grounds for the Office he now
holds, but Mr.. Soule is a staunch tenn
perance man, an honest and efficient
officer, and thorough Republican, and
the ADVANCE therefore gives him a
hearty support. Of Mr.. Durfee, we
have spoken heretofore. He has made
a most laborious and faithful Commiss-
Toner, and has been exceedingly eau
tious about giving his support to meas
nres which would involve the county
and burden the people with taxes
We are assured that the opposition are
endeavoring to defeat Mr.. Durfee by
reporting that he is in favor Of put
ting the county in debt for costly pub
lie buildings and improvements. No
Republican should heed any such ru-
mors. Let his past srecord speak for
him. That record has been just the re-
verse of this charge. Look at your
tickets before voting and see that the
name of I. P. Durfee is there and that
the name of l.. 3. Bennett is not there.

We do not commend the zeal which
seems 10 animate some OF Mr. Hamlln's
friends TO have It thoroughly understood
ihat he is already prospccIiveN elected
by large majority OF the Republican
members elect of The Legislature. Let
the elections come in its time. As 10 the
plsdging of Legislators in advance, that
is right enough. II The electors (lhe elcc
tors. and not merely the caucus mSnagers)
have chosen their Representatives with u
view Of having them carry out their
definitely formed preferences in the
selection Of senator. II any mans
constituency has chosen him with the
express understanding that he will vote
tor Mr. Hamlin. or for any other candi
date. then he is right IN pledgipg himself
to that course. But where such is not the
case legislators will do better 10 bide
their time. and meantime 10 consult the
wishes of their constituents. Pledges in

ia an honorable one. The most serious
impulalion made against him as a candi.
date is that he is the representative and
patron OF selfish set OF Office holders
who wish 10 make bis retention the means
of advancing their own personal ends.
Now we neither wish 10 see Mr.. Hamlin
