HARMONICAL.

We regret tosee the stand taken by
the Trenton Herald..and a very few
individuals regarding our two distin'
guished candidates for the supreme
judgeship. We can see 10 good in
forcing an issue between the friends
of these gentlemen. Gibson county
is not required to present only one
name or dozen names Thegentle-
men are not the candidates of this
county, hut of the democracy of the
state, and it is their friends who are
urging them for the position. We
have no right to dictate to the state
convention who their candidate shall
he, If they want both, we shall be
pleased. IF only one is selected, we
shall still be pleased. If neither is
nominated, the Exchange will bow to
the decision of the convention and
cheerfully support thenominees, as it
has always done. The Exchange has
been a democratic paper all its life,
and expects to continue in the faith
many years to come. What we want
is harmony in the party in this coun>
ty just now, and We believe if the
course suggested by the Herald is
adopted that trouble VIII follow.
We have candidates for congress and
attorney general to he voted for in
other counties, and candidates for the
legislature in this county. We serir
ously Gear That a wranglei over the
candidates for supreme Judge will re,
suit in great damage to ourshome pO>
litical candidates. We insist that il
will be better for both gentlemen and
better for the party in this county to
suppress everything that is caleula-
ted to engender i'll feeling between
their friends. "Iet US have peace
