Pierce County democracy.

There are men who are democratic
at all times and under all circumstan-
ces, and few of them are still to be
found in Pierce county. They held
convention at Ellsworth last Thurs
day for the purpose of nominating
county ticket. OF this convention j.
III. Brasington was chairman, and f.
b. Saxton secretary. The committee
on credentials besides reporting the
names of those who were entitled To
seats in the convention, recommend
ed the appointment of a committee
to present ticket, at the same time
naming the members thereof. The
report of the committee on creden-
tials, together with its recommends
tion and committee on nominations
was adopted, when recess was taken
TO give the committee time to make
up ticket. In due time, the COM
mittee reported the following:
Member of Assembly, j. NJ. Bailey:
Sheriff, III. n. Bascom; County Clerk,
o. Bonsness; County Treasurer, III. r.
Huber; Register of Deeds, A. j.
Mumford; Clerk of Circuit Court, L.
Bundli; District Attorney, +. NJ.
White; Superintendent of Schools,
p. Mcmahon; Surveyor, b. r. Eaton;
Coroner, G. o. Cone.
The managers wanted the conyen-
tion TO swallow the ticket at a single
dose, but objections being made the
nominations were taken up singly by
acclammation. Every body present
knew Jim Bailey and Hank Bascom
and they went through all right, but
when the name presented for County
Clerk was reached, one of the dele
gates, who was evidently new in the
business raised question of the or
thodoxy of Mr.. Bonsness from a dem
ocratic standpoint. The questioner
was promptly turned down, however.
by the Ellsworth postmaster, who
mildly intimated to him that the
committee understood its business,
and the balance of the ticket present.
ed was endorsed without further in
terruption. The convention chose a
democratic county committee by bal
lot, naming the following-F b. Sax
ton, chairman, w. III. Putnam, John
Mueller. A strong effort was made to
secure the third place on the commit
tee for Tom Griffin, because of his in
innate personal relations with Chair
man Wall of the democratic state
committee, but this reason did not
prove potent enough, and so the Rock
Elm, instead of the Prescott post
master was chosen. Messrs. Saxton,
Bailey and Reed were elected as dele
gates to the senatorial convention.

The church at Hager ON SUNDAY
last was filled by sympathizing friends,
assembled to pay tribute to the
memory of Anna Catherine Trutt-
man, who lost her life in the terrible
fire at Hinckley while ON a visit at
her uncle's, John Best, Jr. Miss
Truttman had written letters to her
mother on Wednesday, Aug. %, in
which She spoke of the fires all about
them, and the suffOcating atmosphere
almost unbearable, but thought the
fires would not reach the home OF
John Best, ST., as the river and the
marsh would prevent the fire from
going beyond these lines. On Satur-
day she went to the father of her
uncle for short time, and there met
her death with the entire family. while
her uncle, his wife and child saved their
lives by going into an underground
cellar. Anna Catherine Truttman
was born Aug. 10, 1856, and had always
resided i'm her home in Diamond Bluff.
