Uncle Pres. for Governor.

As the Gazette has no particular
choice as between the various aud
sunury" candidates in tie Republi
can party, and as most everybody
In that standpat organization seem
disposed To get at the pie.counter,
We hereby rise to name a man for
the gubernstorial race before the
nominations are closed.
OF course the next governor Of
his state will be Democrat, but
since the honors are being passed
profusely around, what would be
wrong with Uncle Pres. Morris as a
real candidate for the nomination?
Throughout the recollection of the
oldest inhabitant Uncle Pres. has
been a wheel horse in the service OF
his party.
He served that party in the legis.
lature of the state, and he has served
it long and faithfully as an edi.
tor of newspapers published in the
counties of Richie and Wood.
Through a long lifetime of party

and he has kept the faith-and even
now he is still in his prime.
1t may not be the design of the
politicians to reward long and faith
full service-C Colonel Edwards could
tell you-but as this nomination j.
to be made in primary maybe the
private in the ranks could slip a bal.
lot in the box. If he will run we
cannot agree in advance to back him
with our money but this seems to
be free.for.all fight, and Uncle
Pres. has just as much right to run
as anybody has. We hereby nom

All right, agreed, a great idea.
Now as there is no chance for no
Democrat no how. let US all conoen.
trate on Uncle Pres. and have only
one candidate. 1t will save a lot of
expense.-McDowell Recorder.
We agree heartily to the above
suggestion. Mr.. Morris lie worthy
and we'll qualified and would make
a splendid governor.
