As fall candidates are getting ripe for
the campaign we think it would be a
master stroke Of politics if the Repub-
lican party would nominate Col. w. r.
Myers for sheriff OF the county, il he
can be persuaded to run.
As candidate for Congress in 1880
he was only beaten by SO votes in this
county. while Frazier, independent
Democratic candidate for sheriff was
beaten by 80 votes. He is . clever gen.
tleman. personally popular with all
classes, a staunch Republican, vet libe-

didate of the Republican party he will
receive the support Of all parties.

According to rumor, Prof. r. T.

We learn from private sources
that Mr.. Overton, who relates the

fronted by foreign power, however small
and insignificant, it covers like whipped

diplomatic mercy. Without an army and
without navy, it is now without national
courage. Be careful Mr.. Arthur; for
while you may be quaffing rich wines and
filing the role of Il .gormand, Rome may

The President has remitted so much of

of exclusion from twenty to ten years has
