ply was mighty slow, but generally prett,
sure. His deputy, however, while possess
ing an equal amount Of the former quality
lacks good deal Of being the safest man il

tensive and worrying, and may account fol
irregularities. A reform is sadly needed
Vote for Tilden. Hendricks and Durham
QUITE a large audience, among whom
we're many ofthe best men Of Somerset and
vicinity, GREETED Judge Durham and r
Bradley, at Point Isabel, on Monday
Judge Darham was the first to take the
stand, and, in a speech Of about an hour
and half, expressed himself fully on all
the political issues Of the day. That his
views we're appreciated by a large portion
Of the assemblage, was shown by repeated
applause and remarks Of satisfaction. Mr..
Bradley followed in speech occupying the
same length Of time, and, although he
evinccd many Of the parts Of finished
orator and INDUCED in many well-rounded
fights Of eloquence, he entirely lodged all
Of the real issues Of the campaign. He
called on Judge Durham to explain his vote
,n the Texas Pacific Railroad, his action in
regard to the Fit1hugh door-keepership,
and other minor matters Of which
questions were ably and satisfactorily an
.wered by the Judge in his reply Of fifteen
minutes. Mr.. Bradley is a good speaker,
md, were he on the right side, might do a
power Of good; but hampered, as he is, by
'ilse doctrines and a knowledge Of the cor
'uption of his own party, he is working for
himself and the icause he essays to assume,
most signal defeat in November. For all
4 which we will be truly thankful. In
with some Of the old standard
,earers of our prir ciples, we were assured
hat the political outlook in the county was
lever better for a Democratic victsry.

full load, he commenced to make himself
