Mr.. Editor: Ii has been sometime
since | attempted to write line for
your worthy paper, and feel my
inability to do anything, in the way
of writing a communication, for |
publication, but as the county con-
vention, is to come off for the |
nomination of candidates, for the
several offices, anc being requested
by friends to suggest the name of
our countyman, and worthy gentle
man, Mr.. F. r Cooper, as a candi-
date for nomination, for the Office
OF Senator, if it should meet his
appreciation, though he is a resident
of Clinton, yet we claim him, as a
western man, as he was born and
reared in this section. This may
seem little awkward to your
readers, at this time, but it will
seem more fitting by the time all
that may be mentioned, a. caudi
dates, come in, for | suppose their
name will be, as usual, "Legion."

we should have to Represent Us.
