exs.So after all the Democratic
hurrshs over the election result in
New Hampshire that State elects q
Republican for Governor. A Con-
cord despatch of the 9th inst. says !:
The Legislature in joint convention
to-day elected Parson G. Cheney.
Governor. Mr.. Cheney was the Re-
publican cand date at the general
election"

Primary Meetings.

Let every Republican attend the
primary meeting 10 his town which
is about to be held, or will be held
during the week hence, to select
delegates to represent the town in
the Assembly District convention.
The latter conventions elect delegates
to the State Convention, to be held at
the capitol July 7th, and this body
will nominate q State ticket to
be voted for at the next general cleo
ton.
The caucus is of primary impor-
lance and should be generally attend
ed. The selections there govern the
district conventions. The districts
govern the State assemblage IN July,
and on the nomination then and
there made depends mainly the suc>
cess of the Republican party in Wis
consin. Let every Republican inter-
est himself directly in this matter,
and see to it that the caucus in his
town be held and that representative
men be selected, that they pledge
themselves to attend without fail the
convention for which they are APP
pointed.
Men, and farmers especially, COM
plain that they have no voice in the
nominations, that they have had
nothing to do with the selection of
candidates. This is too true. Rut
the reason is that they themselves
have wholly neglected the meetings
both the caucus and the convention
until the nominations are all made.
This should not be. Every man
should attend and use his influence in
Ill of the meetings, and whether he
is a delegate or merely spectator
may so operate upon tne proceedings
as to produce the most favorable re-
suits.
Try the experiment on caucus day.
Leave your farm work and your
shops. Attend the caucus in your
town. Talk as well as vote. Choose
good delegates, and see that they at
tend the convention, and you will
find that your influence over the
election, will be far greater than our
simple vote at the polls. This is
every Republicans duty, and should
be not only considered bis duty but
his glorious privilege.
