Harrison,s Modest Desire.

The Cadiz Republican, after mention
ing few appointments given to this
county by the State administration, and
commenting thereon, further says:
"And now, since Harrison county is
only recognized in the public service by
a guard at the penitentiary and is only
asking for the Congressional nomination,
we trust that the Republicans of Belmont
will be generous enough to concede this
nomination to Harrison county without
a contest"
Well, that request is modest, but since
Belmont county is in the business, she
will take pleasure in knocking out al
