CANDIDATES for places on the Republican
county ticket are, most of them, very active, and
the work of securing township delegations goes on
with boom. When the Convention meets it will
probably be a Convention of the henchmen of the
candidates rather than the representative mon of
the Republican party met TO do the right thing for
the party and the people. States are being con-
Structed and combinations made that may be
strong enough to control the sOcalled Convention,
but the voters must be persuaded to ratify their
action at the polls, and sometimes this is more
difficult work than securing nOminatiOn.-Bsll-
dTe Independent.
This is probably highly colOred state
ment; at all events, we hope it is. Repub-
licans can not afford to have their Con
vention controlled by the "henchmen of
the candidates" and we do not believe it
will be, but, instead, that it will be con-
trolled by representative men of the Re-
publian party, met to do the right thing
for the party and the people" That is
the spirit that must prevail if success is
desired.
1t is long while yet until the COnyen-
ton meets. The people have plenty of
time for deliberatiOn, and will, no doubt,
have abundant opportunities to be ad-
vised of combinations, if any are attempt
ed, and can be depended upon to strangle
any marplOts who may put themselves in
the way of principle and of party success.

LAW TIRR ARV

The need of good law library at the
Court House is felt by attorneys, especi-
ally those from neighboring towns who
have business in the Courts, and as mat
ter of economy is desirable thing to all
lawyers. The maintenance of good law
library by each individual attorney en-
tails very large expenditure of money.
Seventy-five per cent, or more, expended
for books could be saved by attorneys
clubbing together and establishing law
library, and at the same time the library
would be much more complete than any
attorney can afford to maintain in his
office.
This matter has been talked of among
attorneys for many years, and the wonder
is that they have not acted upon it.

Town and County.

MIR. A. w. FERREN, a former st. ClairS-
vile boy, and wife, arrived in this place
last Thursday, and reception was gwen
at the residence of his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Jas. Ferren, the geueSts being the
members of his public school class and a
few intimate friends. The East Liver
pool Rerie1C of last Thursday contained
the following notice: Mr.. \. W. Ferren,
manager of the Atlantic Tea Co.'S store,
and Miss Minnie McCabe were quietly
married this afternoon at , O'Clock, at the
home of the bride in the West End, by
Rev. A. Marshall. The groom is an in
dustrious young man, of sterling and up
right qualities, and well worthy of the
prize he has won. The bride is daugh-
ter of the late James McCabe, and a
teacher in our schools. The couple left
on the o'clock train for the home of Mr..
Ferren's parents in st. Clairsville, where
they will spend their honeymoon. Upon
their return to this city they will go to
housekeeping in a house on Lincoln
avenue which Mr.. Ferren has had furn-
ished." The bridal party left on Monday
for their home in East Liverpool, taking
with them the best wishes of host of
friends.

Pp1oR 70 two wears ago Republican vic.

PRIOR to two years ago Republican VIC
tories in this County, for fifteen years,
were invariably dimmed and weakened
by the loss of one or more of the candid
ateS upon the County ticket. Selfish men
must not be permitted to restore the con-
ditions that produced those disasters
They must not be suffered, for selfish pur-
poses. to so combine and control the Con-
ventiOn of the party as to work serious
and irreparable harm. Every Republican
who cares for principle must make 1t his
business to see that they do not. If they
fail to do this, and intrigue and combina-
tions prevail, the loss of a part of the ticket
will follow, just as it did prior to 1887.
That is a condition of things Republic
ans do not wish to see restored. 1t will
not be if men who care for principle take
enough interest in affairs to inform them
selves, and see that their neighbOrs are
not miSled by designing and selfish men.
The Auditors office has been in control
of Democrats for fifteen years. During
all that time the County gave Republican
majoritieS. Democrats have controlled
the Clerks office since January, 1873, and
the Treasurer's office from September,
1874, to September, 1886. These things
ought not to have occurred, and would
not have occurred if conventions and
committees had lifted the politics of the
County to the level of principle. Ifthere
is no question in County politics other
than whether this individual or that shall
have an office, which he may treat wholly
as his personal belonging, men of princi-
pie can not be expected to take much in
terest in who fill the offices, providing they
are honest men. If they are of the kind
described by Hosea BiglOw-
Ez to the slaves, there 5 no confusion
In my ideeS cOnSaTnn' them,-
/ think they air an Institution,
A sort Of-yeS, jest SO-ahem =
Men will take even less interest in County
politics.

DIsARMING AN UNSEEN FOE.

"This was sometime a paradox as
Hamlet says. Since, however, the people
of America and other lands have been Ell
abled to pit Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
against the unseen foe, malaria, it is no
longer paradox, but an easy possibility
Wherever malaria evolves its misty We
nom to poison the air, and decaying un-
wholesome vegetation impregnates the
water, there, in the very stronghold of
miasma, is the auxiliary potent to disarm
the foe and assure efficient protection
Fever and ague, bilious remittent, dumb,
ague and ague cake, no matter how te-
naciovsly tpey have fastened their clutch
on the system, are first forced to relax
their grasp and eventually to abandon it
altogether. But it is its preventive force
that should chiefly recommend the Bit
ters to persons dwelling in malaria-curs
ed localities, for it is certain buckler of
defence against which the enemy is pow
eress. Cures, likewise, dyspepsia, rheu-

Hosea Bigelow once made candidate for
the Presidency sa' it was fashion
able for alleged gI> to be hypOcrites
and sneaks. The eleu Ion of ABRAHAM
LINCOLN to the Presidency followed, and
human nature everywhere was ennObled
by that event
Republicans of this day can not safely
abandon the teachings of Lincoln for
those of Buchanan and Douglas. They
must be honest and true to principle and
candid with the people, if they would de-
serve success. This applies to Counties,
as well as to States and the Nation.

struck by the second section of the Fast
