THE COURIER.
POINTS IN POLITICS. WOODEN MEN'S TAbK.
Ab tho time for tho county conven
tion draws nearer there is an increasing
amount of talk of tho desirability of
nominating, particularly for two of the
offices to be filled this fall, the strongest
men that can be found. Most of tho
republican candidates will have a walk
away; but two of thorn will have to meet
strong opposition. Tho prospeet for
demo-pop candidates is not at this time
particularly encouraging, but whatever
may bo done in the wav of fusion, Mr.
Miller, the present sheriff, and Mr. Baker,
the present clerk of tho district court,
are Bure to provo strong candidates. As

RECKLESS JUDGE.
'I ho judgo of a western court, in
order to secure a safer and moro
civilized condition of atraire in tho court
room, asked tho twelve jurymen and tho
ten attorneys present to" place their
pistols in a pile in tho corner of tho
room, but there seemed to be some
hesitancy in complying with the
request, and tho judgo i isisted.
"If Your Honor will put his down
first," sugeested tho foreman of tho
jury, "I guess tho balance of us will
foller suit.'"
"Certainly, gents,'' replied His Honor,
and laid his gun down in the corner.
In a few minutes all the others had
done tho same, excepting tho sueritF anil

performance of their duties. Republi
cans should not delude themselves with
the idea that anybody can be elected
this fall. Such is not the case. If care
is not taken in the selection of candi
dates for these two offices it is not at all
unlikely that Mr. Miller and Mr. Baker
will be left undisturbed by the electiou.
These offices, so far as patronage and
remuneration are concerned, aro the
most important of all county offices, with
the exception of that of treasurer; and
it rests with the party to insure tho
election of republicans to these places,
or jopardise its prospects by the nomin
ation of weak candidates.
