publican tax payers of each town
ship in Union county to hold meet.
ings and select delegates to attend a
peoples convention to be held at
Sphinx postoffice on the l4th day Of
August, 1886. The object of the
convention is to talk over and take
action on all matters that will bene-
fit the county at large and work for
measures that will tend to the repeal
| of several special laws that are OBJ
noxious to a majority Of the tax
payers. The convention will also
discuss the subject Of civil township
government and other desired im-
provements in our county affairs.
All Office seekers are requested to
make themselves conspicuous by
their absence, as the people believe
the day has come when the office
should seek the man. Each town
ship is requested to hold their meet
ings in the meantime and select good
men MS delegates. = ereytord Neus.
The fact will no doubt be devel-
oped that the chief instigators of the
above scheme are all men who have
an "itching PALM for Office, and the
last paragraph is thrown in to blind
the eyes of honest farmers. We adj
wise all farmers and tax payers to
make a point to attend and sec that
the worthy objects purported to be
obtained are not entirely overlooked
in the scramble of the schemers to
get the lead for some petty Office.
OF course, the proper way TO purgea
party of officious and disreputable
Office seekers, is for the voters to at
tend the regularly organized and le-
gally called cancusses aud conven-
tons Of the party and put forward
only the most trustworthy and hon.
orable men for delegates to conven-
tions and positions Of trust. Pre-
vent tricksters and politicians from
running your caucusses and You are
all right. The call for this meeting
does not emanate from any authori-
ty to show that there is a desire
from any respectable number OF re-
publicans of the county for such a
meeting, and its publicity has not
been of such a character as to lead
honest people to believe that the
promoters were sincere in their pro-
fessions. The COURIER takes the lib
erty, but will perhaps not be thank
ed by the prime v Of the
scheme, Of giving the meeting this
public notice, and hopes that the
meeting will be largely attended,
and everything proposed and done
twill be for the benefit Of the coun-
ty at large" and if there are any un-
just or obnoxious laws upon our
statute books, let measures be taken
to have them speedily repealed.
But let these things be done in the
open daylight Of honesty, truth and
sincerity, and let all the citizens and
tax payers Of the county have q
voice in the matter, then no one will
be subject to criticism.

We wonder if it has ever occurred
to the trading people who make it a
practice to 60 in the evening to do
their shopping, that they are inn
posing on good nature, and contine
the merchants and their clerks an
undue length Of time in their places
Of business, when, il they would
only do their shopping earlier, they
might get out and have more time
for themselves. If you but stop and
think q minute, that from the time
they open in the morning till they
generally close, it is fourteen and If
teen hours. Did you ever think Of it?
How is that compared with the eight
hour system now talked? Do your
trading early, and give the boys a
chance to get out.
