A United Party.

A United Party.
The republican party enters the cam
paign this year with no discord in its
ranks. All the elements of which it is
composed have united to support the can
didates nominated at the State convention
They will also work together in harmony
in regard to county officers and members
Of both branches of the Legislature. The
bourbons have taken great pains to create
q division but have not succeeded They
have sought to form a Thomas party. a
prohibition party. a civil service reform
party, sorehead party, in opposition to
the republican party and its nominations,
but in spite of all their tears and curses.
their fattery and abuse, the republican
party is grandly coming up to the work
with united and inyincible columns.
One word concerning county officers and
members of the legislature. The impor-
lance of these has been much enhanced
by the lengthening Of the terms Of Office
consequent upon the adoption Of biennial
elections and sessions of the legislature.
Members of the legislature are now elect
ed Ia serve two years instead of one.
True, there will probably be as rule
but one session Of the legislature every
two Years. but second session may be
and the same members will continue to
serve whether there be but one or more
than one session in the periodfor which they
are elected. The Legislature to be chosen
this year will elect United States Sena-
tor to succeed Mr.. Frye-who we hope
will be his own successOr-and this gives
still greater importance at this time to the
election of members Of that body. The
frightening Of the terms of county officers
likewise gives importance to their cleo
ton. Their work comes very close TO the
people. The longer the term the greater
should be the interest in having such
offices well filled. 1t only needs to men
ton this matter to have its importance I'M
derstOod.
We hope the republican nominations for
county officers and members of both
branches of the legislature yet to be made
will be made with a view to the fitness
and availability of the nominees, and in
the full spirit of harmony which now
actuates the republican party over the
whole length and breadth of the State. 1t
is evident that the trend of public senti-
ment is favorable to the election of the
republican ticket. Governor Plaisted's
equestrian performances upon the several
parties which he has mounted, with his
record of demagogism, have not been an
edifying or pleasing spectacle to the best
citizens Of our State, many Of his own
party not hesitating to speak freely their
disapprobation of his course and their
hope that Col. ROBBIE may defeat him.
We have but to continue as we have
begun and "a great success will be ours.
The elements which have united in favor
Of the republican ticket, are the elements
which make the State. Agriculture, edu-
cation, temperance, the churches and
schools, the factory and the workshop,
good government, all these have re-
ceived generous support from the repub-
lican party and through these and for these
we shall make good fight in the cam
paign now begun, and win a glorious VIC
tory at the polls in September.
