Higginsville Post:-"The Licking.
ton Intelligencer of last week publishe.
a call asking Mr.. Henry Miller, o.
Freedom township, to make the race
for county Judge from the eastern dis.
trict OF Lafayette county. The call il
signed by quite a number of gentlemen
If Mr.. Miller should consent 10 run. he
will be badly left, for the republicans
intend to put up a man for the place
and they intend to elect him too" Du
tell, Brother Post! That's Just what
your people were indiscreet enough to
say in the last canvass, and the boys
just made a very little extra effort, and
against your most popular man, Es-
quire Thieman, they increased the ma
jority over the previous election. Keep
on your Growing in advance, do, and
you'll have a good big mess of crow to
digest after the contest is over. . There
are a dozen men in the district that you
can't beat, and Mr.. Miller least of all.
He was a staunch and firm democrat
in Freedom township in days when it
took courage to stem the tide OF repub-
licanism there, and he has been faithful
ever since. He is true to all the coun-
tvs interests, and this his neighbors
know, and he would receive many
votes about Concordia from political
opponents.
