The Mexico Convention finally
agreed to give Col. Hutton the second
term, which decision we believe will
meet with the general and hearty APP
proval of the people. The graceful
thing was done by Judge Robinson
and his friends and general congrat-
ulations are in order in the interests
of the Democratic party, A good
deal should have been learned by the
people during this canvass and it
should serve them in the future. We
confidently expect an increased ma
jority for Col. Hutton at the Novem-
Der election. His record is q guar

sentative of his constituents.

The Seventh District Democratic
Congressional Convention, Which
convened at Mexico last Tuesday,
did its work more rapidly than was
expected. Col. John E. Hutton, the
present incumbent was nominated on
the SS8th ballot Wednesday morning.
The task was a tedious and tiresome
one and had it not been for the
course pursued by Judge Robinson
and the Pike county delegation, the
possibility of a nomination would
have been meager. To say the
least Judge Rebinson's course was a
commendable one and his action de-
serves the highest encomium of the
Democratic voters in this district. In
his work he has not displayed any
selfish motives, and his entire can
vass has evidenced that he has the
best interests of the party at heart.
