THE CRAWFORD SYSTEM.

Now that the political campaign of 1895 is
past the time seems opportune to consider
whether it would not be advisable to change
the present system of nominating county
officers A discussion of the subject by the
party papers can do harm, and may be the
means of much good.
Everyone who has had anything to do with
political matters in this county Of late years
knows that great deal Of money is used
and as a result a campaign for an election to
Office is a very expensive thing. 1t is also
well known that many persons who seek the
honor of representing their districts in the
county convention as delegates do so for the
purpose of having their expense" to Potts
willie paid If half the tales told are true,
the candidate who pays the most Expenses
is the one that generally gets the votes, no
matter what the delegates instructions may
have been.
1t is more than hinted, too, that the eX-
pectation of making strike" is the prin-
ciple reason why many men go into the con-
test; otherwise, those who can lily afford to
lose a days work would not be so willing to
serve. This is true of both parties and is
not confined TO our own ranks.
The good of the party is a secondary con-
sideration in the minds of such delegates,
and hence we think the time is ripe for the
adoption of the Crawford county system.
By that system each voter casts his ballot
direct for whoever he would like to see the
nominee Of his party, instead of for a dele
gate who may be induced" to disregard the
instructions given him. 1t is true shenan-
doah has very few of this class. but it is well
to avoid any contingencies that may arise in
the future.
II is to be expected, Of COURSE, that the

THE shifting nature of some of the rivers
in this country of ours is apparent in the case
of the Rio Grande, which, according to the
annual report of General Bliss, commanding
the Department Of Texas is encroaching
Rpon the city of Brownsville and the military
reservation adjacent thereto. The admins

fine one, is now within four feet of the river

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-The strike of the
Housesmiths' and Bridgemen' S union con-
tinues, and work is at a standstill on most
of the new buildings under way in the
city. The Iron League issues a statement
declaring that while the strike is osten-
sibly for higher wages it is really to force
the members to employ only union men.
1t has always refused to discriminate
against non union men, the league de
clares, and it asserts that most of the men
are not in sympathy with the strike, and
are acting under coercion.
