last Satur day was pretty well attended by poli ticians from all over tbe county The object of the gathering was stated as being tho securingof suitable candidates for all of the various offces of the coun ty The matter was pretty well gone over we are informed and the present indications are that filings will be made for each of the county offices by Demo- crats perhaps in several instances there will be more than one filing for the same office as the sentiment is not entirely unanimous in this regard While sentiment and purpose may have been considerably chrystallized there is uo doubt but that other inter ests may be recognized and represented when the filing date arrives The sentiment of the meeting was clearly in favor of Barney Hofer of this city the county central committee sec retary for the office of county clerk On the other hand there sesms to have been a lack of those desiring or willing to run for county treasurer While the matter of candidates for sheriff was not very unanimous Some Price on Staples Our low and attractive prices are not simply on the fancier goods but extend to staples as well as witness the follow ing Simpsons and American prints 5c Same with
