DIckInaon for Sheriff.

The republican county convention held Rt Holland Tuesday was very close and exciting, but the Rock vllle candidate for sherIff A. P. Dickinson, was ro-nominat- ed on the fourth ballot. It seems to be very evident that Vernon Is the only town in the county that Is to receive any of the important political offices.
 The convention was called to order at II o'clock by J. W. Chandler of Stafford Springs. Adolph Korper of WIlIington was chosen chairman, and Fred Prentice of Hebron secretary. II. s. Abel of Staff ford Springs was placed in nomination by J. F. ChAmberlin of Stafford Springs, who claimed that the eastern part of the county was entitled to the office of sher- ih. as Rockville had had the congress- man (Henry), attorney general (Phelps), and collector of internal revenue (Lake). MT. Abels nomination was seconded by George l.. Keeney of Somers. George w. Randall of Rockville presented the name of A. P. Dickinson of Rockville, the present sherlff. His nomination was boSVhdoA DJ W AHhh hJ VI INOChNlAlSs The first three ballots resulted In 26 for each candidate. After the third ballot a recess was taken for dinner. After dln- ner the fourth ballot was taken, and the result was 27 for Dickinson and % for Abel. On motion of c. k. Keeney the vote was made unanimous.
 Adolph Korper, W. F. Fay and Mar shal Porter were appointed county com- mlttee.

 Ben Dodge of Providence made a capI- tai announcer. He has loud, clear voice and an easy flow of language. These qualities, combined with his gentlemanly appearance and talent for running his part of the program smoothly, made him n valuable addition to the executive force, and It Is hoped that he will be with us next year.
 AS the time draws near for the nomi- nations for members of the general as- sembly, tho voters should bear in mind the effort that Is to be made to defeat the ro-eleotion Of Senator Joseph k. Hawley. who so ably represents the state of Con- necticut in the U. S. senate. Senator Hawley Is ono of the most valuable mem. bers of the senate, amt his health Is good and he ls fully able to fulfill his duties and should be elected for another term Extra efforts will be made to place mer in nomination who are antAgonistlc tC his ro-electlon, but we believe q larg, majority of the republican voters of tn, state of Connecticut are in favor of hi recollection for another term.
