The county Democratic convention. on
Saturday, was very harmonious for that
party. The reason for this state of affairs
was the fact that the anti-Hendrickson
faction captured all the delegates, conse-
quently the other side was not in the con-
vention with sufficient backing to make a
respectable kick.
A city paper mentions Prosecutor Budd
as the compromise candidate of the Sims
and Hendrickson wings of the Democrat
ic party for member of the executive
committee. This is amusing when those
in possession of the facts know the COM
promise was the result of clean sweep
of all the delegates.

Republican convention. has named the
following county committee: Nathan
Haines, Burlington Thomas Fl. Marter,
Chester; James w. Caldwell, Chester

The Republican vote in this county
should be largely increased this fall, as
there were many Democrats whose votes
were cast at the late primaries on their

The persons who manipulated these
Democrats should see that the pledges
are kept.
