County Clerk on the Democratic ticket.
John was wise.
The Chicago silver plank and the state
noncommittal platform were adopted by
the County Democracy on Saturday
The convention was controlled by the free
silverites and its candidates Enthusiastically
bear that stamp.
The selection of Jacob G. Hendrickson
as chairman of the County Democratic
Convention was happy choice, for Jake
has a way of seeing but one side of a
question. He denounced alleged Repub-
lican bossism but forgot to mention the
whip held over the Democratic party by
Jim Smith
