There is considerable dissatisfaction

There is considerable dissatisfaction
with Mr.. Fife, in regard to his action
in the whisky prosecutions at Hum
boldt in some portions of the county,
but as there seems to he general
materialize it is probable that he will
be renominated. If Barber, or Geo.
Amos should come out, they might
make it interesting for Fife, especially
i'm the northern townships. 1t is cur
rently reported however that the latter
gentleman can carry the southern
portion nearly solid, in which event,
there being no candidate in the north,
his chances are to say the least, very
fair for nomination.

Born upon the winds that blow from
the east comes the report that n.
Fredrickson, of Usage township, will
be a candidate before the Republican
convention for the office of District
Clerk this fall. Should such report
prove true, another element enters
into the county canvass and the
factions will have still another element
of uncertainty added.

"a very pretty little fight is brewing
bver the office of Co. superintendent
between Messrs. Henderson, Root, and
Adams. The two first named gentle
men, Mailing from Geneva, will make
things hum in that usually peaceful

that Humboldt has agreed to give

For some cause unknown no one
seems anxious to contest with our
present Probate Judge the honor OF il
nomination this fall. Sometimes a
man holds an office because of his
special fitness for the position, which
seems to be the case with that eminent
gentleman who does not scoop in the
honor of being a delegate to the State
Convention. As heseems to be a hard
man to beat it is suggested that his
nomination 10y acclamation would be
the correct thing to do. 1t has been

nine can out vote the one it is probable
that Allison will get there.
