As WILL be seen elsewhere, Mr..
Hugh r. McVeigh declines to enter
the race as candidate for reelection,
and as his decision in this matter,
unlike the Plumed Knights utter
arces under like circumstances, is
positive and unequivocsl, we will
not indulge in vair regets at this
step. Life is too short for a man of
energy and noble impulses to be
spent in the tread-mill drudgcry of q
Clerks office. Hugh deserves more
than the empty honors of mere pub
lie appreciation, and for his own
sake, and expressing our honest sen.
timent as 4 friend, we arc glad that
he has withdrawn from the will O.
the wisp chase, along whose alluring
highway already too many dlsap.
pointed wrecks are stranded. Man
was not made to be servant unto
his fellows always. Hugh made an
honest, faithful and conscientious
officer, and discharged his duties
with credit to himself and satisfac-
tion to the entire people. In what.
ever pursuit he may hereafter ell.
gage in, the good will and wishes Of
the people whom hs has 90 long and
faithfully served, will follow him and
be light aud guide unto his feet.
