Cot. NJ. CxoNIN, Chairman of
tho Lincoln County Board of Com
missioners, spent q couple OF days
in White Oaks this week.
The Col. is probably tho best
known citizen IN the county, and
among his acquaintanccs has many
admirers, some of whom we think
oversize o. the mark when they de-
nominate him "the concentrated
wisdom of Lincoln County," but
his head holds Il vast dea, moro
thar nits. We believe he is no kin
to .he Dr.. Crnnln who lately dis.
tingnishcd himself at Chicago by
being kilt" save t at he is an
Irislman. He does not belong to
the Clan-na-Gael or any other clan
save the democratic party,and why
he attaches to that pntrld reminn :
csnce Is beyond our ken.
The Judge was born on an Isle
where everything but the men and
women are always green. He
wasn't born green, neither has ,'e
attained that hue since coming
here, except, perhaps, green
old age" Like unto all llibsrni-
ans, he is briln-lull OF iun and hu-
NOR when abroad and royal en-
tertainer when at lome.
