COUNTY CLERK.

r. A. Donaldson, who now performs
the duties of the Office of County Clerk, is
candidate for the place during the next
term. He has a great many friends
! throughout the county, who are pronounc-
ed in his favor, and will stand by him
through thick and thin. They maintain
that he has filled the Office in an accept
able manner, and the good of the republi
can party and of the public generally de-
mands that lie should be named as his own
successor.
So far very little opposition to his nom
| ination has manifested itself, as it appears
to be foregone conclusion that he will re-
ceive the honor at the hands of the repub-
lican nominating convention
r. B. Omstead, of Milan, however, has
been sounding the public pulse with view
of announcing himself as a candidate He
will probably have his name presented at
the convention, and others will also appear
before the gathering.
THE SHERIFF
for the next term will be fought for, and
some tall wire pulling is promised to
secure the coveted place. Prominent
among those already mentioned are j. F.
Ankrum, the present Sheriff, Coroner
Morris, of Moline, Duane Nicholson, of
Coe, Henry Harris, of Andalusia L. v
Eckhart. of Edgington, who is now a
constable in this city. The main fight is
between Anlkrum and Morris, and it may
become SO bitter that a third man will
succeed. The three remaing candidates
all hope to secure that end, as they think
they arc eminently qualified to conduct
the affairs of that office with credit to
themselves and to the benefit of the entire
community
The fight between Ankrum, of this city,
and Morris, of Moline, begins to assume
the character of contest between the two
cities, and il conducted with the xigor
that now characterizes the battle, some
bad feeling will be engendered.

The Spring Election.

The spring campaign bids fair to be lively con-
test. The ball practically set in Saturday morn
ing by the home rule law enforcement party, in .
largely attended and lively convention, which re-
suited in the selection of the Rev. w. w. Satteree as
their candidate for the Office of mayor, and the
nomination Of Miner Ball for comptroller. The
party opens its career with q man.
ifest determination to exert every possible energy
leading TO the election Of the two gentlemen named
Mr.. Satterlee is staunch, wel-known and popular
temperance worker and agitator and his name at the
head of the ticket is well calculated to develop the
full strength of the movement and will unquesdon-
ably poll more votes than would the use Of the name
of good practical sense and discretion and, if
elected will certainly do all in his power to give i'm
partial justice to all.
The Democratic and Republican parties have ap-
pareny not yet organized, each awaiting the initia
tory movement the part of the other. While this
the present status, it is well Known that the prefer
ence Of the leading "wire pullers and Office manip-
ulators Of the Republican parry, is enlisted In the
cause of O. M. Loring their probable candidate for
mayor.
The Republican party owes much to Loring for his
assiduous efforts IN its behalf, and if 1t can wipe

is nothing more than its duty to do go.

SINCE John Sherman broke the heart
of the confding and dusky Eliza Pinks-
ton, he has been engaged in so many
questionable transactions, and mixed up
in so many filthy scandals, that he no
sooner gets his defense before the public
than he finds it necessary to explain his
explanation. When we take into consid-
Grafton the foul odors that hang around
his garments, it is difficult to understand
the influences which render his presence
in public life and in the United States
Senate longer tolerable. Although re-
peatedly kalsomined at the public ex-
pense, he is to-day the most loathesome
machine politician at large and unre-
strained of his liberty.

MIR. 3. K. BRUCE, register of the treas
ury, very intelligent and highly es-
teemed colored man, has written letter
to Senator Hoar, thanking him for oppos-
ing the anti-Chinese bill. MIR. Bruce is
quite intelligent enough to see that if the
principles involved in the bill are correct,
then the declaration that call men are
created free and equal" Is fallacy. In
this Mr.. Bruce has the advantage Of his
white Republican brother in both can
dor and powers of perception. Had he
thanked the manufacturers of Massachu-
sets for urging Mr.. Hoar to oppose the
bill, and Mr.. Hoar for needing their by
no means disinterested suggestion, Mr..
Bruces letter would have been timely
and to the point.

The most heartless instance of robbery
yet brought to light in the public ser.
vice, was the appropriation OF the choice
things sent to the inmates of the Sol.
diers' Home, by the officers in charge of
that institution To rob and plumber
the government is bad enough, but when
it comes to robbing the manned soldiers
of the war of the comforts and advan-
tages furnished them by the government
to ease as far as possible their
declining years of life, the out
rage and heartlessness of the
transaction finds no parallel in the annals
of crime. immortality, robbery, assassin
alton and imbecility are becoming SO
common in the public life of the country
as to render longer Indifference in the
works of bringing about a reform in the
administration of the affairs of the gov
eminent, not only tacit approval of the
present demoralized condition of the pub.
lie service, but a crime against the laws
of the country. Let the reformation be
pushed earnestly and vigorously until the
last thief is driven from the public SER

THE organ of the wheat ring and Mil
lers' Association, 1.-THE Pioneer Press
argues that the millers have wrongeG
themselves in order to benefit the farm
ers. The organs defense is the stale one
of referring to the prices paid by the
millers. In quoting prices, reference is
always made to No. / or Ne
2, wheat. For those grades, as
rule, fair prices are paid,
but the swindle comes in in the grading
and the widening of prices between the
grades. The millers met last fall and
resolved to make fifteen cents difference
between No. 2 and No. 3, and fifteen
cents between No. and No. t. Then
they proceed by their little joker,
the brass kettle, to steal a grade
and wheat that ought to pass as No.
is made No. ), and what should be No.
3 is made Nc. 4. Having made the enor-
nous difference of fifteen cents between
grades, it becomes decided object to
swindle in that manner. Upon this
point their organ IS silent. The farmers,
who are being robbed, have seen the
point long ago.
