The foregoing is the ticket nominat
ed by the Republican county conven
tion which met at Sheridan last Sat
urday. Mr. Stull, the nominee forjudge, is
a lawyer of this city, of acknowledged
legal ability not only at home but
throughout the State. He possesses
stability and decision of character, in
tegrity and firmness, honor and abil
ity, which eminently qualify him for
the position for which he has been
nominated. He is a gentleman who
attends promptly, studiously, and in
dustriously to his business. Although
not a member of any temperance or
ganization is, at least by his example,
a temperance man. Judge Stull two
consective years was elected Police
Judge of the city, and is at this time
Mayor of this city, honored as such
by the vote3 of the people. A more
fitting selection for the orBceof Coun
ty Judge could not have been made,
I nnd those wiio appreciate the necessity
of having an able man to fill that re
sponsible office, will, irrespective of
i party, give him their votes.
Mr. Majors, the candidate for Clerk,
is the present incumbent. The peo
ple know him well and appreciate his
business qualifications, his prompt
ness, industry and efficiency in dis
charging the arduous and responsible
duties of the office. And we may
mention as not least among bis qual
ifications for clerk, his always pleas
ant demeanor and accommodating
' disposition. He is never too tired nor i
j harrassed by perplexing business to
I greet all with a pleasant word, and to
accommodate them with any infor
mation he is able to give. The peo
ple respect such a man, they admire
such an officer and will without
doubt triumphantly re-elect him.

that otnee. lie, too, is so well Known
that it may teem superflous forua to
say a word in his favor. A pleasant,
i quiet, unobtrusive gentleman, al
ways at his post, naturally fitteM so
cially to serve in such a capacity to
do business with and for the people-
the very soul of honor, he has the
universal esteem and confidence of
everybody
We have had much ex
perience in county offices and can say
to the people from personal knowl-
edge that a more careful, accurate and
emcienc county ireasurer we never
saw. The people are careful to select
m
honest men to take charge of their j
money. - They were not mistaken '
when they chose Mr. Gilmore, and
before they disoharge him from the
Treasury office, they should know
well into whose hands the responsi
ble trust is to fall. Appreciating these
truths, and that the present Treasurer
is all that could be desired as a good !
i
and true officer, he will ogsin be ir-
dorsed by the voters of Nemahs bv I
an overwhelming majority. I
R. V. Black, the nominee for Sh?r-
iff. is a well-to-do farmer 3nd blaek-
for the week'mi:no1 J-aiayette precinct. He en
tered the Union army in Illinois at
the beginning of the rebellion, as
private soldier, and before the expir
ation of his three years term of ser
vice was promoted to the captaincy of I
his company as a token of tbe respect
of his comrades for gallant and sol
dierly conduct. He has been a resi
dent oFthis county for twelve or fif
teen yean?, isiighly esteemed by his
neighbors and will receive the vote of
his precinct nearly unanimously.
onnn;r. tii.i- :..rr:,i-,l
7.u;75 ' ." "" "-
During his long residence in thecoun-
tr- ha Han t ..-. fo. n t. rl ,-
ty he has never asked for and would I
never accept an office. This year the J
people who were acquainted with his
sterling character and peculiar fitnes
for the office of Sheriff, have brought
him out, nominated him, and mean
to make him the next Sheriff of Ne
maha county.
John H. Shook, of Aspinwall pre
oinct was nominated for re-election to
the Ottice or County commissioner. I
We believe he had no opposition in j
the convention. His nomination was i
demanded by the tax-payers of the
county : for he has made them a most
ffaitbfuIbJe and boQe3t ffi ia,
. , . . ..
A man of unswerving integrity is Mr.
Shook, with excellent judgment and
business qualifications, understand
ing the interests of the county, it
wouId fae exceedingly unw,se to not
re-elect him. Mr. Shook has on var-
ious occasions given evidence of his
firmness in doing right, aud fairly
representing the wishes or his con
stituents, and whilst he has some bit-
ter enemies, they are very unreason
ing ones, and he will no doubt receive
tnecoraiai lnuorsementof a largema-isome
j jority of the voters of the county.
Philip Crother, the nominee forjwayt he has some of tbe beat furni
Superintendent of schools, is a reai- ture, of every variety. Hannaford
dent of Nemaha City. He is at this says he is getting ready for the 4,good
time, as he has been for a number of time coming;" and the interesting
years, teacher of the schools of that j p2rt of it is, he sells rizht down at
Place
Mr. Crother is a scholar, a
student, an industrious steady young
man of small family, and should re
ceive tbe cordial support of the peo
ple. He is highly esteemed by his
neighbors and acquaintances, and tbe
people of the precinct, and will
re-
eeive nearly the solid vote of the pre
cinct.
Mr. Parker, for Coroner, we are
personally acquainted with, but
learn that he is a steady, industrious,
popular young man of Lafayette,
ag-tinst whom no objections can be
urged, and of course he will receive
tbe united support of the party.
James M. Hacker was again nomi
nated for Surveyor. The people seem
determined to keep him in that posi
tion, and they could not do better and
perhaps not nearly so well by electing

The Advebtiseb did not anni

Why does not the Sheridan fellow
low tell just what we said? Whynot
copy our article like one desirous of
telling the whole truth, and then an
swer as he thinks fit? The reason is I
plain why he does not do this he t
and falsify, and make us appear to
have said precisely bat we did not
aay. "Call the farmers stupid idi
ots?" Now that is a barefaced lie,
willfully and maliciously promulga
ted, to injure us with those who read
the Herald but do not read our paper.
Ourcomments alluded to "the author"
of the Sheridan article, particularly
and especially, and no honest or log
's
ical conclusion could make anythin
else out of it. And no one, who has
any honor or fairness about him, or
who cares a snap for trutb'and man
ly principle, would stoop to do so.
Now we will tell this sheridan

that we meant Aim, and a

er, everlastingly hording people about
the county seat, aud about the center
of the county talking and whining
about it in season and out of season,

bore and a nuisance by even those
who would favor removal. We know

i aw. we did not, m ithose editorial
comments, do noS, and never did, b -
ject to holding conventions at SherI -
dan ; and during the two years we
were chairman of the central com
mittee, two conventions and one
meeting of the central committee
were held at that town. And we ap-
I pointed the centra! committeemeeting
i to be there ourself, and voted in the
committees to hold the conventions
there ; and this jear, we advised and
j favored the calling of the convention
at Sheridan. It is this eternal croak-
iug and whining of the Sheridan
a'ore
whenever a commit
tee sees fit to call a convention in
Brownville, tbat disgusts us.
