The Ouymoti Herald unintentionally
pays a compliment to P. (J. Trucy by
accusing him of po3seiing Hepablican
friend!) in mch uti'iibcrs as to ho n fac-
tor in lb . Republican convention. Be-
fore a county official can sccuro any
considerable number of political friends
from the opposite parly he must have
rendrrcd satisfactory service iu his of.
(ice. It is also a fact that when an of-
ficial of this county dues prove ifli.-ient
and economical the taxpayers will
statid by him regardless or the appeals
partisanship aud misrepresentations ol
his pergonal enemies. If tbo Guy in on
Herald intended its aiticlo to be accept
ed for the truth it Is nu ocknowledg
incut that Mr Tracy is a capable and
utf'actorv official eleo he could not
have gained his Republican friends.
Thu article was not iiilcti ltd a u com-
pliment however and FrcJ need not
feel flittered. Tho Quyinun Herald
iu pursuance of its poliiy "anything to
lieat Tracy" thought ilio article would
injure him.
There will be au at tempt made thru
Republican friends of a Democratic
candidate to nominate a weak Repub-
lican for county clerk in order to insure
tbo election of Trucy. When tbo Rc-
publhuui of tho county meet iu con-
vention they will block that kind of a
game. The chemu was worked in the
convention two years ago aid it will
not be repeated. 0 uymon Herald.
Mr. Qiiinn probably took as active
interest as any oilier person iu the nom
inatian of tho Republican candidates
of iDoO and thers is no inoro ground
to assume that tho Republican frieuds
of Tracy dictated tho nomination for
tho purpose of securing a "weak can
didate than there is to asuino that
Quinn was nominated for county attor-
ney for the same reason. Tho ''weak
candidute" which the Quymon Herald
meutlons polled as I irgo a voto fur
clerk in did the tdi'or uflhat paper
for county atlirncy. The article is si in
ply '-hot air" written to further its pul.
icy or "anything to beat Tracy."

Together wo enured into nnollur ar-

an hour or so when wo found we had

to niakn any uro pr. gics was for me
to ride the mule uercs. Nn. it was
