The priuiaricH have been held, and delegatee chosen to attend the county convention, which meet.' nt 1,'Jiiixvilli? next Saturday. It will be the duty of the county convention lo iiomiii.it' republican candiTvc for county olTu ern and tochoore deleati- to the state nil i''H I i'ti. which C'Kiveiu in Lincoln, Si pt.'Jt. , The camp iign. on the part of U.i '. i piiblicnn p-trty, may be cud to Aiave opened taut Saturday. And I Ji.sw that the pa'-ty hat conlided to thiM- delegatt.- the impi rtanttrunt. which they acce.it, tiny are in houor bound Mae', in a v.-ay that w ill reflect credit up in thei'ist lve and intiure a victory r the party they represent. In choosing Candida let for county ofjjceri lue caution fll -llld be o)-' served. In local electioim a grei f deal depetid-t ujioti the character and ability of tti man. 1'ach man nominated upon the county liiket rthould have back of him a career and a character absolutely una M.iilable. They Hhoilld be eapable men qualified in every pai ticular to perform the duties of an aflicer, faithfully and well. We are going into t.iiH campaign to win and we cannot afford to permit eelfi.-di inte- retn, personal friendhipn or any other extraneoun condition to pic vent the nomination of men upon whom the inembern of the party of all HectioiiH can unite. THE IIEK- AI.I) ban exirei!ed no preferance for ar:y particiilar candnlate. but prefer to let the party (select it standard bearers Hiid then we tdiall be found contributing in every legitimate way to the party Kuccesn. The retiring state officers are Chan. H.Gere, of Lancaster county, and I-avitt Hrunham, of Douglas county, regent of the state univer sity, and Hon. Amass Cobb, asivici- ate justice of the supreme court. It is equally important that care be exercised in instructing delegates for state officers. There is likely to be but little difficulty in selectinn regents that will be satisfactory to all sections of the state. There is. however, considerable opposition on the tart of prominent republic ans to the renomination of Mr. Cobb. It appears that this opposi tion was caused largely because of his actions in the Hoyd-Thayer cor - test. Hut we believe that before condemning nn officer there should be objections other than that be has performed his dut ies faith fu II . If it appeared to Mr. Cobb that be was acting under the direction of the fiiudament.il law of our state, and if that be true, there can be no valid objection to his m lion, oil the part of law abi'littg people. Our supreme judge can not yield to popular clamor in dealing with the constitutionality of questions pre sented for his consideration; and, in fact, he cannot be expected to court the wishes of the people in matters pertaining to law. We elect a judge in whom we have con- fi.!:'i!re and from ivho-n we exp' judgments rendered without bia and uiiinll'i' ii' i d by i opiil.ii opi n inn. Till. Illk'AI.K only desires that jus tice be done Mr. Cobb ;m I if in the face of fact in the in. liter he in'iiii sidered a weak candidate, it is the duty of the convention to instruct for Home other man. Let strong t:ckets state and county be nomi nated, let each member of the party rally to its support and they w ill be triumphantly elected in Xoveni her. ON his return to his home from the Republican convention by which he was named as the candi date for fjovcrnor, J. Sloat Fassett was greeted by vast crowds of his fellow citizens, and the speech which he made concluded with these words: I have one purpose and that is that this shall be absolutely, purely a campaign ol education ami oria ni.atioil. ,o personal detraction, no per-otlal nbuse, no bolding up the light ol false issues, no tolera lion of falsehoods and misrepresen tations. I here is enough for every earnest American citizen to think aUmt and to come to conclusions about without sensational false hoods and personal detractions of any name or nature whatever. I have licen culled a practical politi cian. I believe I once said in Cooper I'nion that f wish that every American citi.en of Z years ami upward was n practical politician It i the first duty of every Ameri can man to be a practical Ameri can politician. It iti in this way that Republican victories are won not only in New York but everywhere. It is hardly too soon to assume that Mr. Fassett will be Governor F'assctt on the first day of next year.
