and there being no other candidates he was
declared the unanimous choice of the con-

whole time and attention to it.

His nomination is an acknowledgment of
his past services. Possessing the abilities
of it's duties, he will, if elected, make good
officer.

Mr.. Thompson is the present incumbent of

an endorsement of his present term.
For superintendent of schools, Rev. s. M.
Cramblett received the unanimous vote of
the convention. Mr.. Cramblett resides in
the southern part of the county, and as far

tention, if elected, to fulfil the duties of the
position most faithfully. His remarks were
