EDITORS JOURNAL The resuitreached
by our Republican convention last
Saturday in nominating Mr.. Ii. Ii. Blair,
as candidate for Representative, should
be very gratifying to every true Repub!i-
can. 1t seems to tho writer that the
convention in selecting Mr.. Blair, as our
candidate, desired to follow the example
set at Cincinnati, in the nomination of
Hayes and Wheeler, and the one a. To-
peka, IN the nomination of our excellent
State ticket, and place u true mana
true RepubIican-at the head of our
county ticket.
Mr. Blair has lived in our (Center)
township for six years, and for the last
four years has held the Office of town
ship trustee. As citizen he is known
as an honest, industrious, and intelligent
man those traitscombined with his very
excellent judgement, have made him a
popular and AN efficient trustee. AS an
evidence Of the feeling of our citizens
towards him, his unanimous election as
as trustee for third term can here be
properly cited.
All truo Republicans should vote for
Mr. Blair at the coming election, and
they can all rest assured that he will as
a Representative, discharge his duties in
a manner that will be honorable to him
self, and credit 10 his constituents.

Inflammation at this place, caused by eating

With 1ichens partly oyergrown,
