Both Conventions Entire
ly Harmonisus and
i'm Perfect Accord.

The democratic county convention for
the nomination of county officers which
was held at Springfield Saturday was
perhaps one of the most harmonious in
the history Of the party in Brown coun-
ty and proved conclusively that the
members If that party could be counted
upon to do the right thing at the right
time regardless of the opposing party.
For more than a week the word had
gone out, circulated mainly by those
who desired anything else rather than
the success of the democratic party in
this county, that the convention would
develop into Donnybrook Fair and
that at its conclusion there would be lit.
tie else but scars and bruises in evidence.
The proceedings show, however, that our
friends, the enemy, reckoned without
their host, and despite the fact that in
several quarters they had made strenu-
Gus efforts to name the candidates, or at
least defeat the will of the people in the
nominations, their Vaccinations have
come to naught.
The ticket no minated at Springfield,
without friction and with the utmost
good feeling, is strong one and will
without doubt he elected in its entirety.
While the democrats and populists
held separate conventions they were one
in spirit and intent and to say that COM
plete fusion was effected scarcely gives
full weight to the sentiment that pre-
vailed. The distribution of officers de-
cidsd upon by the conference committee
is just and equitable and the men nom-
mated are competent aud reliable. 1t is,
therefore, safe to say that the entire
ticket viii! have the hearty support of
every democrat, every populist and every
independent voter in the county, hence
it will be elected by good majority.
OF the Individual candidates the Re-
VIEW has not the time or space this
week to make more than passing men,
ton, but it will suffice to say that each
and every one of them have been select
ed with View solely to their compe-
tence and personal integrity. They are
each of them old and we'll known resi-
dents of the county, men against whose
personal and business character there
can be brought no word of censure and
in whose favor no more need be said
than that they are staunch democrats,
honest and capable men, and safe men to
vote for no matter to which party you
may belong.
