THE TICKET.

tt(NSN M ~
the Democratic County Con
vention in session last Tues
day. taken as a whole, is with
out doubt the strongest that
has been put in the field for
many years. 1t is composed of
good business men, who have
made a success of life and
who are capable of conducting
the affairs of the county sue
cessfully. The State Senator
and those members of the
Legislative ticket who have
been re-nominated are men
OF experience in Legislative
affairs and the new addition
Peter Whaley, Esq, is a broad
minded gentleman who will
readily grasp the situation. 1t
was very important this year
that Worcester should send
men to the Legislature who
knew the ropes, for we want
a new Assessment Law and
with the experience our Dele
gates gained at the last sess-
ion we expect them to take
the lead in matters of such
grave import to the whole
people Of the State as re-
assessment.
The Board of County Com
missioners nominated last
Tuesday is strong, both in the
marked capabilities OF its per-
sonal and their noted business
capacities. In the section
around and about the County
seat Hons. Edward White
and Stephen Z. Mason nomi-
nees for the long term, are
noted as good farmers
probably no better in the
county-and as business men
have a reputation which is
not confined to the narrow
limits of Worcester County.
Messrs. Elton Boston. Thos.
Holloway and George w.
Hancock, nominees for the
two years terms, are known
to their constituents as men
who understand values and
are capable Of doing a good
part by the people who will
elect them to office in Novem-
Der.
Captain Levin ]. Houston
has filled the office of Sheriff
before and it was the opinion
OF the late Judge Irving that
he made one of the best
Sheriffs the county ever had
He conducted the affairs OF
the office in strict accordance
with the law and his sales for
taxes were nearly all ratified
by the Court, which is some
thing unusual.
The ticket is one with which
no exponent of a government
by the people can find fault
and it will be elected in
November by the biggest
majority that this grand old
county has rolled up in a
decade.
The resolutions published
elsewhere in to days MEssEN-
GER which were adopted by
the Convention were most
appropriate-and set forth
the true situation as regards
the needs of this county for a
judge. The endorsement given
our candidate for associate
Judge-Clayton ]. Purncll,
Esq, should be truly crafty
ing to that gentleman as it is
to his numerous friends. He
deserves all the good things
said OF him and we are truly
glad to know that the senti-
ment of the people to elevate
him to the Bench is so pro
