CnndIdnte for Inhra

Judge T. A. Minshall, of Chillicothe,
was nominated at the Republican Con-
vention held at Greenfield, on Tuesday
last, by acclamation for reelection to the
office of Judge of Common Pleas Court
for. the counties of Fayette, Highland and
Ross. Judge MinshalI was elected to fill
the unexpired term of the late Judge
Gray, and has served as Judge two years,
to the satisfaction of the people. He has
proved himself fully competent to dis
charge the duties of the office, and the
people Of this subdivision will make a
great mistake if they do not elect him.
But, we have little fear that the voters
Of the district will be guilty of making
any such a mistake; but it will not do to
lie dormant and trust to chance for favor
able results. The friends of the Judge
mustexercise themselves in favor of his
election; not for the Judges personal in
terests alone, but for the interest of the
whole people of the district.

Bro. KERR said, few weeks ago, that
when he had an opportunity of reading
the law recognizing the Soldiers and
Sailors Orphans Home he would publish
it; that is, the O'Connor law, by which
so large a portion of those orphans are to
be denied the benefits of the Home. As
brother Kerr has not yet published the
law we do him the justice to conclude
that he has not seen the law, although the
sections denying those children the ben
etits of the Institution have been pub
hshed in every one of his Republican ex-
changes; but, we believe, that as yet, no
Democratic paper in the State has had the
nerve or moral courage to publish it, or
even the Sd and 4th sections of it. Pub
lish it, gentlemen, and let your readers
know about it. If the law is a good
one you have nothing to fear by airing
1t through your columns; and, if it is a
bad, unjust law the people have a right
to know all about it. They have right
to know what their public servants have
been doing.

Candidates. Names.

The Daily Inter Ocean in late editor
ial makes the following remarks which ap
ply as well to democrats as republicans,
and which we especially commend to the
attention of the several Committees, county.
Representative and Congressional;
AT every election great trouble is
caused by the careless spelling of the
names OF candidates Many contested
election cases have turned on the spelling
of candidates name in two or three ways
or on the omission of an initial letter. Not
withstandiug the troublesome experience
OF tho past, this carelessness as to the
spelling OF names continues, and the name Of
one gentleman on the state ticket is spelled
three or four different ways. The curious
feature of the matter is that candidates
themselves are careless. When written to
tor their full names, in nine cases out OF
ten they reply gicing simply their initials
as to their given names, and taking little
pains to write clearly as to their
family names. Will candidates
and publishers of papers see that
every name on the county, district and
state tickets is printed correctly"
The Democratic State Committee have
made u like appeal and desire the full
names of the several political parties in
this county. Win the COMMITTEES give the
matter attention.
