Year: 1866

The County Convention which assembled
at the Court House last Saturday, was the
most orderly which ever met here, and its
members exhibited a degree Of forbearance
and brothelly feeling towards each other
seldom manifested in any body OF men con
rencd for like purpose Above We give
the ticket as nominated, and as The candi-
dates are fayorab!y known throughout the
county, We shall take but a brief space to
refer 10 them.


Hon GEORGE REED was re nominated
for State Senator-a position he has so ably
AMI faithfully filed in Madison for two
years past. Evcryrone in the county will
acknowledge his fitness for the position
Not even the most bitter radicals will deny
his qualifications for the office. Ability
aud dignity have made him one of the most
useful and Influential members Of the high
est branch Of the Legislature


BRYAN s LORIGAN received the nonlna-
ton for Sheriff on the first ballot Mr..
LoRlGAN Is known to nearly every person in
the county, having until recently been con
ncctcd with some Of our leading mercantile
establishments. Cool and sagacious, and
at the same time kind and trust worthy, he
is a fit and proper candidate for the Office
As a Democrat he has always been faithful
to the party, and never tiinched from the
true doctrines Of Democracy He should,
aud will, receive a rousing vote


PETER j. BLEsCn, the present incumbent,
was re nominated for County Treasurer.
He has fulfilled the duties of that office for
two years with marked fidelity, and with
due regard to the interests Of the people of
the county. OF good business capacity,
quick intellect, and an industry of no com
mon kind, the people cannot do better than
by giving him reelection. His honesty
and responsibility is unquestioned, and his
hosts of friends will rally to his support with
unauimity.


WILLIAM BACH was re nominated for
Clerk of the Board Of Supervisors by accla-
nation. lie is too well known as a scholar
and business man for US to speak of him
at any length, for his political opponents
concede that he has made a first rate
officer, and that no person in the county is
better qualified for the position. While all
Of them acknowledge this, his unanimous
re nomination is proof that he is deserving
tie honor at the hands Of his party friends


JOHN FRANZ, of Two Rivers, after short
contest, was nominated for Register of
Deeds. MIR. FRANZ is leading business
man in that town, and has filed the most
important Offices in it. He IS fine pen
man, and acco mmodatng gentleman, and
Is just fitted to follow in the footsteps of the
present popular Register, Mr.. EGGERs. As
Mr.. +. has lost his left arm, he is not only
entitled to the support of his party, but to
the sympathy and good will of all men.


GEORGE \. WooDIN was unanimously
re nominated for District Attorney, and he
well deserves the compliment, for he has
made an excellent officer. He is leading
lawyer, and has given satisfaction in the
discharge of his duties SO far.

County Surveyor The faithful manner in
which he has discharged its duties for two
years back, Is guarantee that he will con
tinue to give satisfaction in the future

ion of his qualifications for the office


EDWARD EGAN, an old settler, a talented
man. and staunch advocate of Democracy,
is the nominee for Member of Assembly in
the First District Through treachery,
deceit and want of union, our friends lost
that District last fall, which We hope is
caution enough for them to be on the alert
At the couang election. Do not be fooled
again, DenecEats of the First sIr EGAs
