The JOURNAL takes pride in the ad-
vancement of Columbus people, at home

Hamilton Herald, published in Skagit
Co., Washington, announces the fact
that Maynard p. Hurd, who, q few years
ago, started in the practice Of law here,
has been nominated by the republicans
a. their candidate for the legislature.
In the speech which placed his name be-
fore tho convention, Maynard was called
''the young Demosthenes" and it was
said Of him that he is IAN advocate of
marked ability, man Of the people, and
such an exponent of ideas as will make
him material factor in the represent
alive body OF our state" The editor re-
marks that Mr.. Hurd was not q candi-
date for that or any other Office, but
that ibis peculiar fitness singled him
out for the Legislature nomination. The
same fitness viii contribute to his sup.
port all down through the campaign,
and will strengthen him for service in
the Legislative halls." We can cay to
our republican friends that they will
find Mr.. Hurd with the qualifications
which 60 to make the model legislator:
he will be true to his constituents and
to himself; he will know what il going
on, and be alert, watchful, and eager to
be at the front Of the contest; he will
have pardonable pride in doing his full
duty to the best Of his ability, and what
the measure Of this may be in the legis-
lature, those who come in contsct with
him, either in friendly consultation or
opposing argument, will best be able to
judge. All Of Mr.. Hurds scqusintances
