Republicans Nominate an Unsatisfactory
County Tickst-A Breezy Row.
RrTcmE c. H., August 22.-[ [Exclusive]
The Republicans OF this county held their
Convention here yesterday. The heat was
very oppressive. The meeting was a dis
orderly, fiery affair, and some of the discon-
tented anti-fusionists got up aud publicly
withdrew from the Convention.
The following ticket. was brought out:
House Of Delegates, W. G. Miller, Green
backer; Prosecuting Attorney, Henderson
Peck; Clerk Circuit, J. H. Lininger; Clerk
County Court, G. ". Amos; County Sur
veyor, W. B. Hayden; Sheriff, ]. c. Gluck;
County Commissioner, W. G. Lowther,
Gpeenbacker; Assessors, s. P. Crummitt
and D. B. Patton. The only lively contest
was for Prosecuting Attorney, three candi-
dates being before the Convention. One of
the defeated candidates, a chronic Office
seeker, charges the DELEGATIONS with unfair
ness in making their selection. Quite q
row was kicked up over the selection of a
Sheriff. 1t is claimed that the candidate
had packed the primaries in order to secure
the nomination. Although Gluck was the
only man placed in nomination to-day, yet
there were 30 out of 100 votes cast against
him. There are two Independent Republi-
can candidates out for the House Of Dele
gates from this county J. I. Siunett and
Thomas E. Davis, and it is probable there
will be another. Some of the leading Re-
publicans of this place are denouncing the
action of the convention already and say
they will not support the ticket. DR.. NJ. S,
Hall, a prominent Republican leader, says
that the Greenback party is more than he
can swallow.
The Democratic Executive Committee of
the county met here this afternoon and de-
cided that the Democratic Mass Convention
for this cosnty will be held here September
Sd.
There is general dissatisfaction over the
Republican candidate for Senator from the
Third Senatorial district. He is considered
a chronic office-seeker, as he has been
standing candidate for Office ever since he
has been in the county, and has held one
Office, that of County Superintendent Of
Free Schools

IT is one Of the sad features Of human ex-
p,yience that the news Of the war between
France and China, which is beginning to
show Us grim yisage is being hailed with
degree Of satisfactory delight among other
nations. 1t IS not so much that any nation,
ani particularly our own, has any special
grli-e against either Of the combatants,
bgt ,ha, foreign war generally brings good
times TO people not engaged IN the
contest. In other words we
are expected to thrive on other
Paopies misfortuues. While France and
China are warring, all productive indus
tries must stop in those countries and con-
saQucntly an increased demand for our pro-
ducts is made. That makes easier times
ior us. While this is dePlOrable fact, it
is one Of the Inevitable things, and Of course
We must submit to the.iuevitable and gather
