M. Accompanying him will be' the Hon. SILAS A. HOLCOMB , candi date for Supreme Judge , the Hon. WM , NEVILLE , candidate for ' * w Congress , and the two candidates for Judges of the 1 5th District A big attendance is expected , and to - add to the interest of thp .occasion the Has been engaged , and will Inrnish us music If elected , Skirving will take up the duties of his office untrarameled with promises , and owing allegiance to all alike. We heard the other day that the re publicans were trying to elect Layporte and Miss Brown , and had given up. the Oght oa the rest of the ticket. " " Anything-to-bcat-the-repubhcaiis is what they call the fusionisls now. It isn't a pretty name , and it isn't ex actly a true name , but it don't hurt our feehngs very much. If there is any office which contains more politics than any other , it is the office of congressman. Xo democrat can consistently vote for ivinkaid. Ho represents every principle in politics to which we are opposed. "Johnny is a nice fellow , " seems to he the only argument Daniels' friends are using for him. We admit it , hut fail to understand why that should get him votes. There are lots of niee fel lows in the country , but thc\f don't ask oifice on that account. The opposition is trying to make votes for Miss Brown by saying she will be out of a job , if defeated. If she pos. sesses only a portion of the ability as _ cribed to her by her admirers , she Avilj be able to secure the position which Mrs. Crawford will resign. John Skirving seems to be a special object of attack with the republican wirepullers , for no other reason appar eutly lhan that he is an extraordinarily good man. Skirving is not such a poor votegetter as some of the old warhorses sefuued to think when he v-as placed in nomination. Jf there is a man in the county who is better qualified for the office of clerk , t'l.ui is Pete Donoher , we'd like to see him. If there is a man in the couaty whom Pete has ever wronged inten tionally , we'd like also to see him. If there is anybody in the county who thinks his politic r ' nor -rihndox , we want to r-er him too. And besides "he i is a nice little fellow. " We believe Lee Layporte is making a fairly clean fight for the sheriff's star , but some of his friends in their efforts to get the Decoration for him are not doing him any good , to put it inildh * . Promises are promiscuously made and talse hopes raised in the breasts of a great number , Serving is venomusly attacked , and democratic votes are so licited on the ground that Laypbrte did all he could to defeat" Strong two years jijin \Ve don't believe Lee would do these things himself , ind they only make his defeat more certain. Mrs. Crawford is not gadding about the country asking vote ? , neither does she slander her opponent , but she is making votes every day by her quiet and ladylike demeanor , her devotion to her profession , her recognized ability as a teacher , and her general fitness fpr the position to which she aspires. A man has a right to buy goods of whomsoever he pleases. That is dem ocratic doctrine. But some people are possessed of sufficient gratitude to pat ronize their home merchants , even if it does cost them a little more. A public officer especially should patronize the people who pay his salary. Because Miss Brown employed Mrs , Crawford as an instructor during the teacher's institute this summer her fool friends say Mrs. Crawford ought not run for superintendent , and throw out dark hints about "ingratitude. " If a two weeks' job at low wages is consid ered sufficient to keep a person from accepting a nomination , votes ought to be bought yery cheaply. As a matter of fact , all that hurts the opposition is the knowledge that Mrs. Crawford told their leaders , "I am not your kind of a republican. " There is a world of mean ing in that sentence. j The Rip-up-agin says "it is true that Treasurer Thackrey , vas delayed in j publishing his financial report the first of the year. " lie wasn't d.laycd very much , though \ve were favored July 21 with a statement Of the treasure's condition at the close of the preceding year. That shows the treasurer is a hustler. AVh } * wasn't the midsummer report "tlflayed"- Why , because the republican treasurer and a republican ] commissioner had persuaded that old j popocrnt , O. W. Ilahn , to come in off his farm and untangle the mess they : were in. Ilad it not been for this , Mr. | Thackrey would probably btill be won- what he had earned as treasurer. Moses Kinkahl is a foxy politician , | and when it conies down to tricks can 1 give must of us pointers. It is noticed that he isn't making campaign speeches in this judicial district , and many people ple wonder why , but the explanation is i very simple : Many popocrats have j been in the habit of voting for Moses ! just because he is a pleasant fellow and i they thought he made a pretty good ' judge Now however he is running for a political office , and he knows that if these popocrats get a' chance tp ? ; sound the depths of his republicanism they will quick ! } ' drop him , hence the foxy Moses is laying low. It's a pretty nice little scheme , but it won't work. Pop ulists and democrats will not \ote for a man to represent them by voting for the gold standard , for imperialism and .other republican principles. WE ABE AGENTS . . . .
