ITEM ITEMS THEIR ABUSE.

i HEM .-iIEMC-I II ~ Ao OoL.
Have these words any meaning
And if they have, What is their mean
ing? We are led to make these inqui-
RES from the frequent use Of these
words by our correspondents. They
are used SO often that we have become
tired seeing them either in manuscript
or print. And being tired, we raise
the question whether the words are
not so near worn out that they should
have a rest Of six months or a year for
recuperation. And we would respect
fully ask each of our correspondents
to read all the communications in this
paper and then ask himself If he does
not agree with us ir opinion THAT item
and items should have q rest Of at
least six months OF. year Withoat be-
ing called into requlsition. And if he.
does we trust he viii give them that
rest 1#@
If a correspondent has nothing to
write he should wait till he does have,
and then write it concisely. And he
should begin and end with what he
has and not with what he has not. A
communication thus written, would be
Of far greater interest to the reader
than one, commencing with. the Silly
tWaddle of having no items, no news,
nothing to write, would be. 1t is very
silly for writer to inform the readeR
in advance that he has nothing to-
write. He much better write what he
does write and let the reader Judge
whether it is something OF nothing.
Others besides our correspondents,
sometimes abuse the words item and.
items as bad or even worse than they
do. A clergyman once wrote us ask
ing, Do you want an item for publica-
ton :? following this with q marriage
notice where he was the officiating
clergyman, without asking its publlca-
ton or signing his communication.
He did not care for the publication
of the marriage notice, but il we want
ed the item for publication, he, the
blessed soul, would be kind and gener-
Gus enough to furnish it. So far as he
was concerned it would have been but.
justice to have published the commu-
nication as received, but not being
willing to mortify the parties married
we withheld it, s a.
In the mean time, while item and.
t5an5s are allowed to rest, we hope QUE
correspondents, and others who use
them SO glibly, will Try to find out their
true meaning. And we trust when.
they are called into requisition again,
they will be used correctly and far less
frequently.

COUNTY OFFICERS.

In about two months county officers
are to be elected, and the time has
come for the nomination Of candi-
dates. And it may be well to inquire
who the candidates shall be. The
present incumbents are eligible to
their respective Offices and may be re-
elected, except the Sheriff, who is not
eligible and can not be reelected.
With the exception of the Sheriff the
present incumbents will probably be
candidates for denomination. And as
usual there are candidates enough for
nomination for Sheriff, but as IS too
often the case, they are candidates of
their own making, and sometimes I'M
suitable for the office. The Sheriff,
being the chief executive officer OF the
county, should be one of the substan-
tial men of the county. And he should
be nominated and elected because the
people want him for the office and not
because he wants the office. And il
will become the Republicans of the
county through the convention tc
nominate such a man and then tc
elect him. With such candidate
they will be sure to elect him. With
out such candidate they will be sure
Of defeat.
