work which, until lately sold for $50, can now

"Whats worth doing is worth doing
well" seems to have been the watch
word of the MeagheT county Demo-
cratic convention that assembled at the
county seat last Saturday.
At no time n the political history of
the county have the people turned out
to the primaries with such unanimity
as this year, and the result is plainly
visible in the work of the convention.
The ticket nominated, not only con-
tains the timber demanded by the
Democratic voters, but is bound to, at
least, challenge the respect Of men of
whatsoever political faith.
Careful observation will demonstrate
to the satisfaction of thinking men
that the so-called independent vote is
rapidly becoming the balance of power.
They care net as to the candidates
political afiliation, only looking 10 the
requirements of the Office and the
ability of the aspirant to properly dis
charge the duties thereof, In this
county the Independent vote will de-
eide who the officers for the ensuing
two years shall be, and the party that
places before the people candidates
everyway qualified for the position to
which they aspire, viii gain the victory.
Fully realizing this truth the Demo
Gratis, laying all partisan feelings aside,
have nominated for clerk and recorder
a man who has been a life long Repub-
lican, an exemplary Office holder
'tried and found not wanting" Yet
party lines stood not in the way of his
being nominated, or accepting thereof,
at the hands of his democratic friends.
The result Of this wise action will ma
strengthen the ticket as a
