CT the centennial will soon follow each other
in quick succession, but the close of neither

We sincerely hope that no Democrat In
the county will scratch a single name on his
ticket, and more especially do we hope that
not one OF them will lend himself to the des-
perate, not to say infamous, effort now being
made TO elect the Republican candidate for
Sheriff. Our own nominee, MIR. Ryan, has
done nothing to forfeit the esteem of honest
men of all parties, and no Democrat espe-
cially who loves fair play or cherishes the
principles of his party can or will work or
vote against him.
