"The discussion Of the chances Of
individuals is not essential. We
can elect any good candidate, and l
have no right or desire to give the
convention any advice as to its
action in this regard, Our platform
of principles and the issues we shall
present are only all important"
"What will be the vital issues of
the canvass?"
"The tariff. and the Southern ques-
ton. The attitude of the Demo
cratic party upon the economic
questions, as well as the action of
| the present House, has clearly
marked out the tariff. as the leading
issue, and the passage Of the Morri-
son Bill, which, 1 assume, will get
through the House, will very sharply
define the standing of the two parties
upon this question. The Republican
party has a consistent record in fa-
vor of protection, and ii was a mis-
take to have marred it by the reduc-
ton made in the bin passed by
/ the last Congress. Especially is this
true OF the attack made upon wool,
an industry in which a million farm
ers are interested. We felt the effect
of this legislation in Ohio at the last
election. The true Republican
position is to stand firmly for the
protection, and leave the tariff agi
tation to the Democracy"
"About the Southern question:
was suggested.

OUR COUNTY NOMINATIONS.

The convention is over and its re-
suits are before the people. The
susual rivalry occurred between the
Friends of the different candidates
for office, but the work of the con-
vention'is generally received with
/. satisfaction. To say that its pro
/, ceedings meet the minds of everyone,
would be to say that men do not
differ in opinion, in preferences, on
friendships. The interest and feel
ling of all parts of the county were
fully represented. S. d. Hobson,
qthe candidate for Senator, needs no
words, of ours to commend him to
the favorable consideration of those
who know him, and those who do
,not will need no aid in learning of
him before their ballot is cast. He
is emrhatically sclf-made man;

sclass who haze taken great pride

broadest sense of the term, and
commend the candidate to all classes
having the welfare of the country at
heart and who are proud of the
American name.
At last there is CLEAN of hope of
relief for the inventors of the country,
the Senate having added to the Legis-
lative, Executive and Judicial Appro-
priation bill passed by the House a
provision for an increase in the exam
lining force of the Patent Office, which
will enable that Bureau to bring its
work "up to date" and in future to.
treat applications for patents with
something like the promptness, care,
and thoroughness contemplated by
the law for the encouragement OF the
arts and sciences, under which the
Patent Office was established. Com
missioner Butterworth has been indie;
fatigable in his efforts to make the Of
flee model Government Bureau, but
he has found himself almost hopelessly
Handicapped by inadequacy of help
and lack of room. Some Divisions of
the Office are over six months behind
in their work, and unless the relief of
additional force is given this condition
of business must not only inevitably
continue, but grow worse because OF
the constantly increasing amount Of
work flowing into the Office. This
Estate of affairs becomes the more per-
picking when it is known that the fees
exacted from inventors now a good
deal more than pay the expenses of
conducting the Office, and are largely
in excess of what will be required after
the present increase of force is provid-
ed for. C. U.

INDEPENDENCE DA Y, 1884.

We are again reminded by the re-
4currence of our great national holi-
day that we ought to rejoice and
give thanks for the safe deligerance1
4ef our country from all the perils
chat it has encountered during the
past year. But wrought not to lose
yourselves in self praise, and TO be so
absorbed in self laudation as to lose
sight of our shortcomings, or to
forget that the country is made up
tof individuals and communities;
sandiif each individual would contri-
butte correct, candid and intelli-
gent representation to make up the
community, it would be impossible
TO have bad Or disorderly elements
an it; and IF all communities were
80 made up, these communities in
the aggregate would compose a ma
ton perfect in respect to its integ-.
2rity and patriotism. If we had no
bad material in communities at
nome, we could furnish no bad man.
40 represent us, neither in Congress
NOR abroad. Each little community
shat celebrates to-day Will claim its
full share of the common glory won
10y our national achievements; but
will it be as ready to carefully look
;and see whether it has contributed
ito any of the undesirable elements
which compose the nation? Will
the day be spent in self satisfied
,iglorifcation entirely? or will the
lessons of time be soberly and can
sdidH oonned? Would it not be
well to be joyous and happy, and at
'the same time to be careful that we
fgiye proper attention to those things
(which will improve our communities
intellectually, physically, financially
land morally as well as politically?
We do not seem to appreciate the
fact that the perpetuity and stabli-
tty EFF the government depends upon
.the character and condition of each
community, intellectually, morally
and socially, as well as politically.
Yet, nevertheless, it is true that each
slittle>community presents q point in
sthe underpinning on which the
whole structure rests, and the dome
vof the Capitol is not more depend
lent upon the condition of the found
@ation of the building than is the
government of this republic upon
our little community as a part of it's
Foundation. Therefore let lis be
spractical to-day in ourt thoughts and
reflections and consider how we
o(meaning any community may best

Sgood work that if the foundations

to such an extent as to lit him for
the position he will occupy, and
where he VIII devote his time to
serving the best interests of the en-
tire county. The candidates for
Assistant Judges, Messrs. Hartshorn
and Turner, are known throughout
our county, and are so located as to
accommodate all who may have oc-
casion to make application to them
for such processes as are frequently
required during vacation; and we
opine they will look well to the coun-
TVS finances. For Judge of Probate,
no one will question the capacity or
integrity of D. II. Beattie, and no
one will doubt his entire fitness to
determine all cases which may come
before him. OF the States Attorney,
Mr. +. D. Hale of Lunenburgh, we
have nothing to say except this; the
past is secure, and of the future we
have no fears. He has been tried,
and the people are willing he should
! be tried again, he having shown him
4 self honest and capable in the per.
i Torrance of all his duties. MIR. S
E. Grout, the candidate for Sheriff
has already proved himself am eff
! Gent and thorough officer, and hi'
/ services in the past may well be re
garded as a sure guarantee OF the
future, and ample assurance that NJ
cause will occur to produce regret
at his selection for this importan
office. Our genial friend j. II
Beattie was renerninated for Higl
Bailiff. His duties are Important

and it is well to select a good mai
in view of any possible contingency
The resolutions adopted by the con
!; vention speak with no uncertain
sound, and we heartily commend
them to the candid consideration o
all our readers. On the whole, on
friends may congratulate themselVe
on the results Of the work of tn,
