Ihe names OF our standard-bearers have been
before the people long and favorably enough to
become household words" Taken all in all
better county ticket has seldom if ever been OF
fered to voters. Most of the men named have
been residents OF the county from the date of its
organization all are known to the people who
are to decide as to their merits or dement's on
( the 9th instant


j. c. DoRR, the nominee for Assembly. is
well and favorably known TO the citizens of the
northern part of the county where he has al
ways resided, as staunch supporter of the Ad-
ministratlon OF Abraham Lincoln and his sue
cessor. Previous to the taking up of arms by
the rebellious States he was a Douglas Democrat
His opponent is Democrat of the Davis-yallau-
digham school. and avowed hater of the
present administration. DR.. Dorr will be elected
by handsome maJority-perhaps the largest of
any man on the ticket.


JAMES COCHRAN, for Sheriff. was formerly a
Democrat, but left that organization and favored
Union of the Douglas Democratic and Repub-
lican element when treason threatened to flood
the country with blood. He has been working
member of the Union organization from the COM
mencement, and faithful supporter of those in
power. He is well fitted for the position OF
Sheriff. and if elected las he will bel will make
faithful and competent officer.


A. ]. LOOMS, present incumbent of the Office
is candidate for Clerk. Mr.. Loomis has dis
charged his duties so faithfully, and so entirely
won the good will of all with whom he has come
in contact, that the opposition have not seen fit
place candidate in the field against him. There
is no doubt as to his reelection.


ORsoS Fox is the candidate for Tax Collector.
No citizen of the county carries with him better
political record than Mr. Fox. He was one of
the early settlers of the county, has always been
a Republican at heart and naturally fell into the
Union party at the time of its organization. 1t
is the first time that he has ever been before the
people of the county for office, and none can ask
it with better grace now. An honest, upright
man, always faithful adherent to the usages of
the party to which he belonged, and staunch
supporter of its nominees, he goes into the race
with certainty of success, if Union men are
faithful to their trusts. A more unexceptiona-
BILE man is not before the people.


EGBERr F. ALLEN, present incumbent. is the
nominee for District Attorney. Mr.. Allen is n
young man of much promise, has been identified
with the interests of the county for the past five
years, and in every respect n good and worthy
citizen Mr.. Allen stepped from the Republican
into the Union party four years ago, since which
time he has battled manfully for the principles
of that party. He was elected District Attorney
two years ago, since which time he has served
the people faithfully and successfully in that
capacity. There are abundant reasons why he
should be reelected over his opponent, and the
people will so decide next Wednesday.


JOSEPH CRAIG, for Treasurer Mr. Craig has
lived in Weaverville eight years is an honest
upright and exemplary citizen, and will be cleo
ted. Well fitted for the position, and emnently
worthy of it at the hands of people who cannot
say aught against his name or fame. The voters
will administer re5uke to his opponent next
Wednesday which will teach him that when next
bnr hnfn Ia
Union votes he must not come under Copperhead
colors.


GEO H. BUNKER is the candidate for Assessor,
and John Adams for Coroner and Administrator.
Mr.. Bunker is another old Republican, but now
staunch Union man, and most worthy of the
Office at the hands of people among whom he has
lived for than decade. His election is
certain. Mr.. Adams is - true-blue" Union
man, has had extensive graveyard experience,
and is so popular withal, that the Democracy
failed to nominate candidate in opposition to
him.
