R1chland County and Clark

EDITOR HERALD: Throughout this
congressional district there seems to
be more than the usual interest as to
who should DO the Republican NOM
inee. Three names have more or
less prominence before the people
Clark, Hazelten and Treat. The
latter. | understand, is only can
dldate contingently; between the
first two mentioned is the contes.
active and vigorous. Both being
residents of Grant county upon the
result there hinges the fate of the
contestants. Outside of Grant
county it is conceded the strength
OF the two is about equal In this
county | believe the people would
accept either of your distinguished
citizens gracefully, and give him a
good majority at the polls. Oar
delegation to Platteville will in all
probability be divided as to prefer
ence between the two, but viii most
likely unite upon the ono who shall
appear by the action of your local
convention to be the choice of Grant
county r publicans.
Thero are indications that m 3 iori-
tv OF the active primary workers of
the county will favor Mr.. Haz9Iton;
while the larger part of those Re-
publicans who ask and expect no
immediate personal benefits, but
besire first the good of the county
and party, would prefer Col Clark's
success. Among the soldier ele-
ment of the party this 10 especially
true. Remembering the ott-repeat-
ed pledges Of the party toward SOL
dlers, it's declaration that "the only
debt this nation can never fully pay,
is the debt it owes the soldiers" etc
and recognizing the indefinable
strong cord of fellow foeliag existing
between old army comrades, this is
not TO be wondered at, and can be
admired. Mr.. Haz9lton's oratorioal
effort at Arlington with which we
have been freely RECALLED, is oredita-
bic to himself; but to the thousands
of soldiers and citizens who heard it,
the admirable address of Col. Clark
at our late Reunion is grander.
Without exception SO far as / have
found, those who heard the Colonel
on that occasion, pronounced it
equal to anything Mr.. H,z3lton has
produced, for strength of thought,
beauty Of sentiment, or force of de-
livery. | mention this merely as an
Offset to the unreasonable prcmin-
ence given to Mr.. Hez lions address,
and to show that the people are sat.
isted that the district will lose
nothing in point of effective oratory
If Col. Clark succeeds Mr.. Haselton.
Finally and emphatically, | wish
to repeat, what only l set out
to say in this letter, that, as surely
as the Congressional Convention
convenes, Colonel Clark will be
therein supported by the delegation
from Richlapd county, and be nomi-
mated, If it shall appear that the
Republicans of Grant county desire
him to be. VERITAs

Observations by an Observer.

EDITOR HERALD We read with
deep interest the article in your ex.
cellent paper,the Grant County HER
AID, relative to Judge Orion and the
nominee for the Presidency. A bet
ter or more sensible view can not be
taken, and as man of good sound
reason, we wish every Democrat in
the state would let mis- better iudg-
ment lead him instead of party prin-
ciples. Mr.. Orion stands before the
public to day worthy of the highest
praise for his manly and patriotic
sentiments expressed in that article.
How can any man possessing a cul.
tiyated intellect, view it in any other
light unless he wilfully and know.
ingly denies facts and clings like 6
drowning man to straw, "and it
seems to me the straw is rather weak
at the present day." which the lead
ers themselves see, but hate to take
the manly stand that the noble-mind-
en- Judge has. We hope that many
more in Darlington and in Lafayette
county will follow and cling to the
Union, destroy the power of the
South by defending the North, up.
holding loyal men and Their princi.
Piles and not cling SO much to name,
but to what is of the most benefit to
the most people. l admire your pa
per for its boldne8s and outspoken
manner Of doing business. Be true
to your principles OF right and your
patrons will be true to you.
We are glad that Judge Orion
views things from such a sound stand
point, and do most sincerely trust he
will be instrumental in enlighte ming
many minds and bring them to the
polls for the purpose of voting a
good, sound, nation saving ticket.
May the great All-wise keep him in
this frame of mind the balance of his
days.
Allow me Mr.. Editor to remain
Respectfully yours,

The Prairie du CHEN Union says
our assumption that Mr.. Hazelton
was not q candidate was not evidence
OF knowledge or sagacity, But wen
not give it up, Mr. Union. Is he not
behaving now just like be did before
he was first nominated and did he
not in the presence OF the Convention
then declare substantially: "Gentle.
men, this nomination was unexpected,
unsought and unasked for by me !"
So on the oath of August next when
Crawford ana part of Richland are
counted out to him as his allowance
in the Convention, We expect him to
make this speech : only friends, you
