The Republicans of Iron county met
in this city last Saturday and nomi-
mated the following county ticket: Rep
resentative, Wm. II. Webb; Collector,
G. B. Phillips; Treasurer, w. w. Hey
wood; Judge-western district-John
S. Luthy; Judge-southern district
John Crowley; Sheriff, Jehu Jones;
Prosecuting Attorney, VIM. D. Bay;
Assessor, Geo. Fl. Russell; Coroner,
N. A. Farr; Public Administrator,
John L. Baldwin; Surveyor, A. H.
Eaton. The good Democrats of Iron
county will take care to see that the
ticket is magnificently "snowed under"
November next.
In the announcement column will be
found the name of Mr.. Alexander Nc
Kenzie. who has entered the race for
the Democratic nomination for Repre-
sentative. Mr.. Mckenzie though a
young man, is we'll and favorably
known over the county. Born and
~eared on farm he did not have the
advantages that favor the more fortu-
nate in obtaining An education, but he
applied himself to the means at hand
and to-day is known as a teacher of no
ordinary ability and attainment. At
present he is employed as principal of
the Annapolis public school. He is
emphatically selfmad man of char
acter and probity, and should he prove
successful in the race will reflect no
discredit upon the people he seeks to
represent in the legislature.
Thos. L. Whitney, well-known
farmer living on the gravel road, asks
us to warn the Iron county candidates.
Mr.. Whitney lives in Iron county near
the Madison county line; in fact part
of his farm is in Madison county. He
says that all during the planting sea-
son he has been greatly annoyed by
the crows. On score or more of oc-
casions he has taken his gun intending
to destroy some of the troublesome
birds. But every time, he says, that he
was ready to shoot a Madison county
candidate appeared on the scene,
and he has been afraid to shoot for
fear of killing the candidate instead of
the crow. The primary campaign in
Madison county terminated last week.
Now Mr.. Whitney thinks he can kill
some crows if the Iron County candi-
dates do not become too numerous.

MUST ANSWER CENSUS MEN

Assistant Census Supervisor James w.
Robertson says he is afraid it will be
necessary to prosecute a few people who
have positively refused to give the census
men any information. He will consult
Supervisor Willis about the matter and
the latter will determine what course to
pursue and will instruct Mr.. Robertson.
1t is likely that a special enumerator
will be appointed and he will be sent to
the people who have refused to give IN
formation to the regular men, and If the
information is still refused the matter
will probably be placed in the hands of
United States District Attorney Byrne,
who will act as the law directs. The
people are compelled by law to answer
the questions, and those who refuse are
liable to penalty Of $500 besidas i'm
prisonment, if the court SO decides.
According 10 Mr.. Robertson, the people
who are giving the enumerators trouble
are those who should thoroughly under
stand matters. "They are people who
know BETTER" said Mr.. Robertson.
''That being the case, am afraid we
we will have to make an example
Of somebody, but we will exhaust all our
efforts before doing that The only
reason he has heard advanced for refusal
to answer is that 'sthe census questions
are lot Of nonsense" Mr.. Robertson
wants the people to know that it is not
nonsense and it is the government that
is asking the questions.

DEMOCRATIC WRANGLE.

From tne Evening Journal
Former Representative Handy and
John G. Gray, who are credited with
keeping the Wilmington Democrat load
ed to the muzze with political sensa-
tions, have discovered that Judge George
Gray would like to give up the ermine
for the toga and return to his old seat in
the United States Senate. Now that the
question arises, with Gray and Biggs in
the field, how much less chance have
Salisbury and Handy Of realizing their
ambition? We wonder if this little story
has not been invented to put Senator
Kenney to guessing on his combination
and, at the same time, to endeavor to
arouse some free silver sentiment against
Mr.. Biggsa
