THE anti-Swaneys were almost "too
numerous to mention" on motions to
lay on the table, Offering substitutes,
and motions to adjourn, but when Wat
son had the resolution and subst tltuie
laid on the liable, and then the S~aneys
again moved to adjourn, which was
promptly carried, they looked as il
lightning had struck them. When they
had figured the thing up by short divi'
siCn, cancellation, casting out the mines
and Gu ing the dsrned thing" and thes
found that Okey was not endorsed, they
also fouud that the Committee had for
gotten to endorse Jack Swaney as tht
Irregular" Democratic nominee, with ,

~lf the Democracy hadn't nomina-

be Republicans would have yelled about

nominated some old timer. instead OF
Mr.. BooKwALrRA, an accession from the

MucH fault has been found with Judge
Okey on account of his rulings aud
charge to the jury in the Weir case.
We believe Judge Okev to be an honor
able high minded LAWYER OF conceded
ability. and that the objections TO him
are founded in personal dislike to some
of bis acts, which have had the effect to
deprive the editor Of the Gazette of ad-
vertising, which be claims as pe'qui-
sites of his position, and not from sny
extra zeal for the advancement OF JUS
ticc. The Gazette and all whose
opinion he can control. have been find
ing fault with Judge Okey, almost from
the commencement Of his term at OF.

Thirteen members Of the committee
we're present. After considerable talk a
motion was introduced to request VIM

was tabled. A motion was then made
that the committee endorse the nomina.
tion of y j. Swaney for Judge, and
this motion was also laid on the table

journed without taking further action
II is understood lha' the reason the
committee did not request Judge 0key
by resolution to b. candidate that such
action would leave him free to he voted
for as candidate for reelection by
men of oil parties The friends Of Swa.
ney claim, ho wevsr, that the reason why
the request was not made was becaust
the Democracy:of Monroe are not fa'
, vorable 10 the candidacy OF Okey, bu'
adhere to Swsney as the regular noui
nee. The action of the committee doe:
not bear this construction for they by {
very positive vote refused to endorse
Swaney.
Considering the action of the Democ
facy Of Monroe heretofore in this mat
ter. it is reasonable 20 conclude that Mr.
owaney will not receive the support o
that county as the regular nominee, anf
the rosy views which some OF the Swa

situation over there are not likely to b,
realized In the meantime it will be OBJ
served that Judge Okey is announced al
