The Coming Convention.

NEXT Monday, promptly at the ringing
Gf the court house bell at II o'clock
the Republican county convention
will be called to order and proceed
TO nominate candidates for Sheriff and
Trustee.
1t is earnestly hoped there Will be
full delegations from every district i'm
the county, SO as to leave no excuse
for dissatisfaction among the people.
There are so far but three candidates
for Sheriff that are Republicans, that
have announced their names as candi-
dates before the cOnyentlon-all Of
whom agree that the convention shall
settle the matter.
There is only one gentleman an
bounced as candidate for Trustee, and
if no other comes before the convention
ho will in all probability be nominated
by reclamation.
There has been n mistaken idea in
this county as To- conventions. \ great
m any look upon a convention rs a kind
of a machine that 10 one can get jus
tice from. This is Il mistaken idea. \
convention when properly gotten up
is the ~tairest way ofsetlling differences.
There are many reasons for iG. The
delegates are chosen in open meeting in
the districts and are generally compos-
ed of men that are well posted as to
who will make the strongest race fol
any given Cfice. This being so, good
men are generally chosen a. tic can
didates.
There is no use in any more splits in
the Republican party Of this county,
The past has surely convinced all that
but one candidate for any office can be
elected. This being the case the Re
publicans can elect that man in this
county if they will pull t ogether.
1t will not do to depend upon a split
in the Democracy. The leaders Of That
party in Bradley are too shrcwd to
allow more than one man to run for
any office from their ranks; then as Il
general thing they stick to him like n
sick kitten to a hot rock. For this we
admire them the more. If anything is
worth doing it is worth doing well,

ANOTHER TRAGEDY II san
FRANCISCO.
Editor of The Chronicle MUIR
dcrcd by 4. W. AaIIOch.

ONCE more san Francisco has been
thrown into wild excitement by the
kalloch-DeYoung crowd. This Time
tie result is the killing of Cha's De-
Young by /. VI. Kalloch, son Of the
Mayor. KallOch on Saturday night
entered the Chronicle Office, and without
spcakiuga word fired four shots At
DcIoumg, the balls taking effect in
the mouth and causing death instantly.
The cause ofall this trouble is that
when Mayor kalloch was a candidate
uIe Chronicle opposed his election, and
one night in a speech TO a crowd OF
rouglis at the sand lots, Mayor Kalloch
DETAINED the char acter Of DcNoung's
mother. Next morning DcYoung shot
Kalloch but failed TO kill him. The mat
ter caused great excitement in the city
but nearly all approved Of DeYOung's
action and consequently nothing done
about it.. Since that time all had been
quiet until this occurrence. I'M. Kali

Pulaski Citizen: The drummer came
down like Il wolf on the fold his shirt
front was cleaning with orelde gold,
and his fingers brisllcd with dollar-storo
rings as he spread on the counter his
samples and things. His g0rb was AS
hobby as nobby could be, and his words
were as big rs the waves Of the sea.
What he knew would have crammed
several volumes of lore what he knew
not had never been heard of before.
The swell that he cut made Pulaskians
stare, and his beauty went hcme TO the
hearts Of the fair; but the merchants,
their manners were far of and cold,
and few, deyclish few were the goods
that he sold.

WE woulG call to the attention OF
some of our Democratic friends who

Florida on my way to Havana, AMI on
my return came Via Texas from MeXi-
co, thus passing through all the rebel
lious States, and it will be agreeable to
all to know that hospitality was tender
ed me at every city through which
passed and accepted in nearly all of
them by me. The same decorations
were seen in every State that are seen
here tonight. The Union flag Heated
over us everywhere, and the eyes of
the people in those States are as famil-
lar with It's colors as yours, and look
upon it as guaranteeing to them all the
rights and privileges Of a free people
without regard to race, color or previ-
Gus condition of scrvitude. In most Of
the States, upon the Reception Commit
tees, side by side, were men that wore
the blue and mel that wore the gray,
and reception addresses were made in
part by those who wore the blue and
those who wore the gray. We hare no
reason to doubt that those whO wOre the gray
DH fulfH all they hare promised in loyalty
