II. l.. Bond and Will Fisher returned
On Tuesday from a FIVE days deer hunt
in the limestone range. They saw a
number of deer, but failed to bring in
any Of them. Herb says it was evident
ly a busy time with the deer out there,
as none of them could be induced 10
stop for an interview. He managed to
stop one with a bullet, but being lost at
the time, he hung it up in a tree, and
wandered over the range all day before
he found his camp. He hunted all OF
the next day for his dead deer but failed
TO find it, and as a consequence. he
didn't enjoy the luxury of y~enison mar

the range. Wonder il he killed it.

The address is said to have been very
pleasing to his popocratic hearers, who
as usual, were quite profuse in thC
measure of their applause, but as it wal
simply a repetition Of the same old ex
ploded theories, it was not especially
interesting to the goodly number Of
gold bugs present, who left the hall

their political policy, and with more
positive impressions rs 10 the fallacy OF
the principles upheld by the advocates

presented, and were consequently harm

Mr.. Martin has been highly compli-

which he performed his official duties
during ms present appointed term, and
it is openly declared, and not without
reason, that he is the most efficient
officer that has ever served the county
in this capacity. The Office is one of
more than ordinary importance, and
should not be entrusted to inGompetents,
therefore the election Of Mr.. Martin,
who has so clearly demonstrated his
capabillty, is important, and should be
accomplished.

Speaking of the candidates collective
ly, they are exceptional in their general
merit and special fitness for the re-
spective positions for which they have
been selected, and We earnestly hope
that no republican will mar a single
! name with the condemnatory scratch of
A pencil, but that every name may be
endorsed by a ballot representing the
full strength Of the party. Vote right
at TIE republican target by placing a
cross in the circle at the top Of the

COUNTY SURVEYOR.

A
i. V. Grantham, a popular young man,
who enjoys the esteem of all his ac-
quaintances, is the candidate for count
surveyor. That he is highly competent
to perform the important duties of the
Office, is shown by the work he has
performed since his ele tion to the
position two years ago. There has been
no word of complaint of his official o n
duct, his services which have been quite
extensive, have i'm all instances been
marked by the highest satisfaction, and
he is fairly worthy of reelection upon
his conceded merits.
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

nominees. Mr.. George, with whom our

vouch for his ability to discharge the

hence we can but conclude that it would
be entirely safe for the voters of his dis
trict to give him their support.
Mr.. Tubbs is one of our most promi-
nent and highly respected citizens. He
is an old resident. and has contributed
largely to the upbuilding Of the county.
