The Ste tie and County Tickets.

The republican county convention on
Tuesday, placed before the voters OF
Owyhee an uuexci ptionally strong
ticket. There is not name upon II
which Tie opposition can sincerely cri-
ticise. Every person on it has char
acter and standing in this county
which places them above reproach. II
is shy two names of being complete,
b 1t as the convention recognized that
the democratic convention had placed
unobjectionable and capable names on
their ticket, no desire was expressed To
oppose them. In regard to the legisla-
tive ticket, it is freely admitted that
both parties have put up capable ana
honorable men But in this part OF the
ticket a great principle lies behind IT
involved in the question. Shall we
continue to support the policy which
has made both the Nation and State
progressive during tile administrations
Of Mckinley and Roosevelt, or shall vs.
retlogfade to the dak days Of Cleve-
land ,and Free Trade? Shall we
strengthen our delegation in Congress
by adding to it another strong man, or
shall we weaken by keeping in the
senate a man committed to all the
vagaries OF his own party as W Il as
originating few peculiar ones Of his
own? hese are important questions
now up TO the votes of Owyhee to help
decide.

We believe in the enforcement Of all
laws provided by our Statutes, and
pledge the nominees of this convention
to enforce such laws
Respectfully submitted,
w. L. Jones
Committee j. E. NcDonell
TO. +. Brunzell
A County Central Committee was
named by the convention, consisting Of
three members from Silver City, two
from DeLamar, and one from each OF
the other precincts, and an executive
committee as follows: Chas. M. Hayes,
chairman; H. S. Simmons, secretary J;
L. @. Gardner, treasurer; D. D. Nc
Donald and Jas lnglis
The convention was notable for the
plain, businesslike way in which 1t was
conducted, aud the absence of states,
jobbing and discussion. The delegates
came prepared to work hard for their
choice Of Candidates, but no i'll feeling
was apparent at any time during the
convention, and it was very evident
that both candidates and delegates
were resolved to put up good ticket,
and bury all differences; and the de
feated candida es are to be compliment
ed on the 20 d nature and good feeling
which they showed in congratulating
their successful opponents
The nomination for assessor caused
ripple Of deeper interest, as there
we're three candidates. all we'll known
capable and popular. The first ballot
showed that the convention was nearly
equally divided among the three. Only
one vote was changed in the second
and third ballots, but in the fourth
three more votes were transferred tc
the high man, giving him the nomina
ton.
The act of the convention in leayips
vacant the places of Clerk of the DIS
trict Court aad Superintendent o
i schools was a we'll merited compliment
to the present incumbents, who in tn
discharge Of their duties have mad
friends OF all parties.

Battling Nelson, to take place on March 18 be-
fore Bob Deadys Philadelphia club. The articles
call for straight marquis OF Queensbury con.

one that gives McGoyern any advantage, because
OF his ability at infghting. In every other re-
spect McGovern seems to have the worst of the
match.
The fighters agree to weigh in at 1873 pounds

gross receipts, Of which 45 per cent goes to
Nelson win or lose, and Terry gets 30 per
cent as his share. Both managers promised to

NEW W0RLDBEATER
HAS CHARLEY MITCHELL

Philadelphia, Jan. 1.-Charley Mitchell, always
in search Of American gold, has bobbed to the
surface with announcement that he has dis:
covered an Irish champion who is undoubtedly a
world beater. Mitchell has SO far declined to
make public the name Of tho new slugger, but
declares that he will bring him to this
country and will match him against any Of the
best heavies. Mitchell is confident that the
Irishman can beat O'Brien. Mccoy or Fitzsim-
mons in jigtime, and that when his man has
gained the necessary ring experience he will be
able to tackle Jeffries.
Mitchell has always been a champion ta1ker
and booster and has grown rich as natural
consequence. But he has never brought fighter
to this side Of the Atlantic that amounted to
anything. The last Irish champion" to be
lanented Mike Morrissey who received a hard
slap the shoulder from Peter Maher and took
the count after sixteen seconds OF the first
round had elapsed. England has developed a
heavyweight called q champion in Jack Palmer,
but Mitchell evidently knows his little book
when he steers clear Of puslisists Of his nation
atty.
