As w FL Withrow was secre-

convention, and as he is the man
to file the nominations 1t Is queer
that he has heard nothing of the
ticket being filed. As the repub-
lican gang at Logan ran the Dem
ooratic convention, perhaps they
have concluded to finish the lob
by filing the ticket.
The democrats defeated the

Bro. McCabe, of the Observer,
thinks the votes in the democratic
convention for Gilmore and Hall
too high at $40 each, but they
we're necessary to success. It wae
that Logan paid as high
as $50 for some choice lots, but az
this price only ruled for West side
delegates it was cheap enough. A
democratic delegate who could be
induced to sell out to the "Gang"
ought to be we'll paid, and Moo abe
ought not to grumble now at the
price paid. II it cost 500 vote
for Gilmore and Hall in a demo-
cratic convention, how much
does "the Gang" intend to
pay, Bro. John, for Gilmore
and Hall votes in the repub.
lican county convention? Have
they "riz?"
