County Offices.

The Third Party is now SquareIy
Before the People of ThurstOn
County and Will at once Proceed
to Business.
The unanimous action of the peoples
party county convention in refusing to
'fuse" with the democrats or anybody
else, was the central theme of conversation
among local politicians this morning.
"FOr my part" said republican candi-
date for Office, 81 should rather see the
peoples party go it alone. I don't believe
much in fusiOns."
$50 you want to see a three-cornered
fight do you, straight from the shoulder ?"
"Yes."
Interested democrats preferred to retain
their opinions until the democratic county
convention was over.

was evident that none but bona fide votes
should be cast. All elections were by Sc
cret ballot.

who has lived in your country for many
years and one who has helped to mould
the minds and fortunes of some of the
most successful men and women of Thurs
ton county. She is recognized for her
sterling worth and competency as a
