From a Democratic stand-poiut.

ED. ADvANcR:-The uppermost
thought in the minds of the people
OF the county at this time seems to
be the organization of political clubs.
belong TO Cleveland X Thurman
club, privilege that belongs TO
any one who desires 10 organize
clubs for his party. l believe Dem.
ocrats should stick from Cleveland
down so as to include the member
of the State Legislature, and after
that they should consider and weigh
well whether those claiming their
suffrage have procured their nomi
nations without the use of money
or whisky. We have men IN the
democratic party of this county
who feign to believe that all who
received nominations in the late
Democratic primary are part of the
Democratic ticket. Why is it they
thus set up such claim, Il is sim
ply this: that some of the nomi-
nees are their friends; others are to
be benefited by their election.
Now, in order to illustrate this
matter more clearly. Just let your
minds run back to BOYD and Law.
renee counties, Kentucky, which
occurrence transpired not many
years ago, when there was to be n
member from those counties elected
to the House of Delegates. Each
party nominated its candidate ac-
cording to the usages of the day.
There were men from our county
and those who claim to be and are
Democrats, went to those counties.
used their money and influence and
elected the Republican, ut a time
when United States Senator was
to be elected.
Some Of those same men arc those
who are making the most noise
about primary nominees; telling
those who belong TO their clubs, they
were the instigation in having or.
ganized, 10 stick from Dan TO Ber-
sheba," or as they say in Union
District, "irom Cleveland to Dick
Childers."
Now, | have shown the manner
III Wnlcn those party loving men
acted in the election in Kentucky,
and their reason for SO doing is
good one. 1t was a kinsman. With
the same propriety might confute
the same good reason for the great
noise about sticking to the nominees;
because some have cousins who
would be benefited, if successful;
others nephews, and others broth
ers.in-law, etc.
In my closing remarks | have this
to say: The good Democrats will
not stick 10 all the primary nomi.

declared that it is necessary to leave
off few and vote for others for
the publication aud reconciliation

The following paragraph appears
n last weeks Wayne NelCs:

tic iOiiOWh IVY pa Y . " pr . GH~"''
in last weeks Wayne Ne1Cs:
"One Of the reasons why w. w
Brumfeld will make a good mem
Der Of the county court, is because
he is not afraid to set down upon a
job"
The above is certainly a pretty
hard hit on the presontcounty court.
Brumfeld may be a good enough
man Of the kind, but he is not the
right kind for that Office and has too
popular a man against him. James
McQuin is the best qualified man
for County Commissioner in Wayne
county, and since his retirement
from the office the people plainly
see their mistake in not re-electing
him before. Had he been reelected
the county would have been saved
hundreds Of dollars.

in controversy. If only the duke had
been born a commCner, he would have
achieved as proud place as DIsraeli or
Gladstone. and would have been q great
popular hero.
Heis very particular in his friend
ships. His entertainments-at least IN
London-are among the most select.
He is averse to newspaper publicity and
gossip. OF late, as can bs well under
stood, this reserve has been more
marked. Another cause OF bis being
made less of in the papers than he de-
serves is the fact of his uncompromls-
ing Independence. Only last year The
duke expressed his abstraction that the
Tories had again come into power be-
cause, Liberal though be is; he admits,
"that the social reform Of this past Gen.
tury have not been mainly due to the
Liberal Party. I have therefore, no
dismay on account of the accession for
time of the Conservative Party to
power, no dismay whatever"
In his speeches the duke is intensely
earnest and animated. He is fine
figure as be throws back his leonine
head and its waving name, and rolls out
his always clear and sometimes loftily
eloquent periods. He Is apt in culling
his illustrations, go that the hearer
might suppose him to be thorough
man-about-town, sportsman, and
generally a very shrewd customer,
which latter he certainly is, but his true

procla,ms his liking for exercise. and
his whole bearing indicates the highly
cultured. highly tempered head of a
proud Scotch clan.
