THE TICKET.

With such a list Of candidates az
appeared before the Republican prim.
aries and convention IL was impossible
that q mistake could be made whoever
was chosen. And there was 10 mis-.
lake make.
The nomination of VIM. Cunning
ham for Treasurer was foregone con-
elusion. 1t wss simply affixing the
seal Of "well done" which the Repub-
lican party always awards to its "good
RRd faithful servants"
The withdrawal Of Mr.. Duffy's name
from the contest for the Clerkship
practically assured Mr.. Eckley's nom.
ination although the balloting con-
tiuued for some time out of consider
alton for the other candidates, "all
honorable. men," whom the conven-
tioE evidently desired to "let down
easy" Mr.. Eckley's record has al.
ready been given in these columns and
needs not be repeated here. He will
make faithful, competent and accom-
modating clerk.
The nomination Of Mr.. Hobart for
Sheriff on the frst ballot was some
thing Of . surprise, and considering
the personal popularity Of his op-
ponents, 1t is certainly a compliment
which should be highly appreciated.
Mr.. Hobart is an old soldier. man in
the prime of life, active and resolute
and he will make an efficient oficer.
Frank Nigh is the young man Of the
ticket. Quiet, courteous attending
strictly to his own business, he will
apply himself assiduously to the du-
ties of his Office and will make popu-
lar official. Comparatively unknown
when the canvass began, his nomina.
tion over so many other candidates.
against none of whom a word could be
or has been spoken, is q striking testi-
monial to his ability to make friends.
As noted elsewhere no candidates
were announced for the offices of cor
oner and surveyor and the nomination
Of DR.. Mcdowell and Mr., Christian
was purely free will Offering of the
friends Of those gentlemen. Mr.. Chris.
tian has already proven his entire fit
ness to be continued in the Office in
which he is now serving, while DR..
Mcdowell will make an efficient cor
oner.
Thefriends Of d. r. Inge who have
conducted his campaign from the be-
ginning are much gratified with his

teerity, sound judgment wide business

So the ticket as it stands, is a strong
one. One that will command cordial
Republican support and will be tri-

They do say that Cunningham was

Mr.. Wisborg's appeal for a "bank

A declination doesn't always decline
when Capt. Travis is in the chair. At

1t will be observed that there were
no dark horse trotted out. The man
who received the most votes at the
primaries was the man who received
the nomination.
The Convention owes vote of thanks

for the arrangement of chairs in such

In justice to the gentlemen who were
voted upon for coroner and surveyor it
should be noted that no one of them
was candidate for either office. The
space was left blank on the primary
tickets and the people voted "at will"
OF course the gentlemen nominated,
Mr.. Mcdowell and Mr.. Christian, will
accept and perform the duties of their
respective offices when elected.

Imagine yourself on ship at anchor
looking west or straight in front of
you. There is broad expanse of sea
a little TO your right hand, behind you
will be the rugged coast, and to your
left the long, narrow ford between
the islands and the mainland that the
steamer has just traversed. You watch
the sun as it slowly, slowly sets; the
islands and the coasts look like rich
dark purple, and the shadows cast by
the ships mast, etc, grow longer and
longer. After bit, when the sun has
sunk apparently twelve feet from the
horizon, it stops and seems to remain
stationary for about twenty minutes /,
then the very sea gulls hide away,
while the air all Of sudden strikes
chilly. Each one has an awed, OK
pecant feeling; tho tourist steamer
broods a silence that may be felt.
Soon the sun rises very slowly once
again, and the yellow clouds change
with his uprising to even greater
beauty, first to the palest primrose
and then to q blush pink. The sky,
which was just now rose color, be-
comes gray, then pale emerald green,
and lastly blue. Rock after rock
stands out caught by the suns bright
rays, and the reign Of day has begun
once more, Jubilee Jaunt to Nor
way"
