The Republican County Convention

The Republican County Convention,
which met at Manitowoc yesterday, did a
wise thing in endorsing the nomination of
w. A. Walker for the Office of School
uperintendent, but its choice of mere
STRIPPING for the responsible Office Of Clerk
of Court seems almost farcical. The i'm
possibility of success and the youthfulness
of the Republican candidate taken toseth-
er, makes one suspect that the convention
of yesterday had determined on perpetrat-
Ing a joke that would cause a burst OF
derisve laughter throughout the entire
county. Although we have the honor o!
being a brother of L. G.. Nash, the juvenile
republican candidate, we cannot commend
the childish folly manifested by the repub-
lican convention in making him its candi-
date, nor approve of thc inordinate conceit
that blinded his eyes to its utter foolish
ness. But, thanks to the teachings Of
honorable aud honest pareuts, the boy
would ever disgrace his n,me by any lack
of official integ rity, and we believe him
possessed Of sufficient ability to ward of
all censure that would arise from incom
potency. The nomination may fatter and
animate him for time, but if it does not
divert his mind from his daily pursuits, il
will not otherwise materially affect him.

the boundaries are manipulated. In
some cases, the lines run through city

house and divides bed, so that the two
occupants find themselves sleeping in
separate wards. n correspondent sends
