seeing his name placed upon the Dem.
ocratic Conservative county ticket; as
a candidate for the Office of sheriff
The Fusionists approaching the i'm
portance Of this Office, have nominated
their strongest man for the position,
and 1t would be well for the Demo-
Gratis to display an equal amount OF
wisdom. Col. Thomas is no office
seeking politician; but we feel author
lied in saying that lie would accept
the nomination If rendered him, and
would do all In his power to con-
tribute to the success of the ticket.
Should his name be placed upon the
ticket, he would not only be sure of
the entire Democatic vote of the
county, but would also draw to its
support large number of those who
claim the privilege of thinking, and
