RENoMINATED.-T Supervisor
Convention of the Second District,
composed Of Cass, Linn, Pioneer and
Fremont townships, met at Mechan-
icsville on Monday, August Goth, and
unanimously renominated Mr.. o. H.
Helmer a. the Republican candidate
for County Supervisor from that Dis
tric-''subject to the will of the Coun-
"ty Convention" the Mechanicsville
Press says; but that is mistake as
the County Convention had nothing
whatever to say in the matter. The
Press further says, "Mr. Helmer's re-
'.election is desired by all who have
1.-The hest interests Of the county at
heart" and in this sentiment there
will no doubt be hearty concurrence
throughout the District. The unan-
imous choice of the Republicans of his
District in the first place, after three
years service that he is renominated
in the same manner, il about the
strongest endorsement that could be
given him. His election Is SO certain
and will be 30 satisfactory that it is
doubtful If q nomination be made in
opposition.

We regret that no one saw fit to
bring up in our County Convention
the subject of Primary Elections. The
difficulty is that the regular business
for which the convention is called oc-
cupies the time until such late hour
that members always hasten adjourn
ment so soon rs possible after its con-
clusion. We still believe that could
the question have been raised and de-
liberately considered, decided major
ity would have been favorable to adop
ing the new plan. Why cannot the
Central Committee take the response
bility of trying it for our next falls
nominations, and then etthe conven-
ton act after having had some exper-
fence.

THE best job of road work we have
seen in Cedar county has just been
done by Supervisor Vest and Messrs.
Lee, Reeder and others in the lane be-
tween the corporation and the Fair
Ground. This has always been ter
ror in wet times, and the wide, hand
some grade that has been builded up
out Of the way of the water is good for
the eyes-to say nothing of horses and
vehicles. A wide bridge in front Of
Mr.. Landt's place will complete the
very badly needed improvement; and
rs the funds of the road district would
not admit of sogreat a disbursement in
one place, a subscription circulated in
town, which should have been, and no
doubt was, literally treated.

THAT GIRL.-That bright little
girl" who being county charge at
the Poor Farm was advertised for
adoption into some good family, was
duly adopted some two months ago
and the advertisement taken out of
the paper. Not being 'distributed,"
by an inadvertance it was replaced in
the local columns, and last Friday q
gentleman and his wife came eleven
miles to the County House for the pur-
pose of getting the girl il she should
suit them. We don't know who the gen.
tleman thus imposed upon was but If
he will make himself known we will
give him credit for years subscrip-
ton to the ADVERTISER by way of
acknowledging the corn" And to
any one who wants to find, buy, sell
or circulate anything through Cedar
county, we suggest the lesson taught
in regard to the effectiveness Of using
these columns.

MORE RooM.-The Directors of the
Independent School District Of Tip
ton have purchased the lot, 50xl42
feet, Immediately south of the present
principal school property. This will
enable the removal of out-houses to a
position not directly under the win
dows of the school rooms, and give
nearly half Us much yard room as
should belong to building which ac-
commodities three hundred pupils.
Two hundred dollars was the price
paid.
BY the way, theincreasein the num-
Der of scholars in this district will
very soon absolutely compel more
school rooms. Will it be new house
that will be credit to town and peo-
pie, or more money spent on the old
shells we now have?

WoUNDED.-A telegram was re-
ceived here last Thursday calling the
relatives of Henry Comstock at once
to Anamosa. Comstock, as will be
remembered, was in the penitentiary
on ten years sentence for rape. 1t
seems that himself and six others who
Were working together in the quarry,
made a bold break for liberty or death.
The guards fired and Comstock has
probably got the latter. One convict
escape'i and was still Mt large ut last
