J. W. BURLEIGH. Ed. and Pub
Tiie war by tiie two different
factions in tiie republican party on
tiie supreme judgsliip question is be
ginning to bear the fruit naturally
arising from tiie bad blood and bitter
talk engendered between the friends
of Ileese and Sedgwick. Tiie fool
friends of tiie two candidates will
now reap the reward of their faction
al tight, which if it does not result in
defeat of tiie republican candidate
will at least scale down tiie majority
either should have iiad by rights.
Gibson’s record in tiie county clerk’s
office as being shown up bv John
Minshull through the columns of tiie
Times, is so plain, succinct and truth
ful, and tiie denial of Gibson so faint
and in fact so bombastica . that even
friends of the incompetent ex-clerk
and who have heretofore believed im
plicitly in tiieir little demi-god are
becoming convinced against their will
that he is what the records show, tiie
most incompetent, ignorant and
vicious official ever in that important,
position in Sherman county, a fact
which is patent to all whoha,ve looked
up the records in the county clerk’s
office. Tiie books are open to the
public and there ean be no excuse for
ignorance in regard to the incom
petence of tiie fellow wlio lias been
hounding a. number of our represent
ative citizens and revealing his idiocy
in beastly drivel to tiie public for
nearly two years past in tiie columns
of a typographical "What-ls-lt.”
The Republican County Central
Committee of Sherman county met in
tiie office of Judge Wall last Saturday
afternoon, pursuant to call. Judge
Aaron Wall was made the unanimous
choice for chairman of tlie central
committee. Henry Tatigerman of
Rockville township for secretary and
Charley Snyder of Clay township, for
treasurer. H. S. Conger was then bv
unanimous consent elected delegate
to the state convention of delegates
at Liucoln. to formulate tlie parti
platform and to reorganize tlie con
vention of delegates under tin* new
primary law. Chi second thought.
Mr. Conger found it would be impos
sible for him to accept, owing to tiie
dates of the coming carnival which
will be in full biast on tlie convention
date, lie lis.ving made lousiness ar
rangements for the carnival dates. His
declination was accepted, and J. W.
Burleigh was chosen as delegate, but
tlie same reasons being beings assigned
he was excused and tlie name of
R. P. Starr was presented as delegate.
Mr. Starr was about to decline, when
a reference to his business calendar
siiowed lie had business in Lincoln
about the time of tiie convention
date, and accepted the unanimous
wisli of tiie committee tliat lie rep
resent the party in said convention.
Tiie work of organization was most
harmoniously performed and the best
of feeling manifest, and we may con
fidently expect tlie bird of victory to
perch upon the Republican banner as
a result of tills fall’s elections
