The lion and the lamb lie down together again, and as usual. In quote the immortal words of some one, with a slight change, we have met the eneny in this county and, we are theirs. Hie results of the late election appear on another page. The ef fort to overcome the Democratic majority was a noble ono and the Republicans nominees, Messrs. Arm strong and Shannon are to be con gratulated. Wo do not claim that the result was accomplished with out Democratic aid, and we extend to all those who manfully resisted the successful attempt to elect dis tasteful candidates our cordial con gratulations. It is nn evidence of the growing sentiment in this county, that the people intend to have their say, and that they will no longer permit n little coterio of selfish and phice seeking politicians to dictate the nominations and Jthon, compel by throats of party ostracism ull those known ns Democrats to bow the knee to the Baels they sot up. When the people take those mat ters in their own bunds, and see that only good capablo men nro nomin ated, or if incapablo ones are nom inated, that they aro elected to stay at homo, then may wo hope for n moro faithful administration of our count' affairs, and a moro economi cal management of the county fin ances. Mako the test, not to what party does a man pretend to be long, but what are his qualifications for the office he seeks, what is his character, what Lis capability why should he be placed in a responsible position, is ho fit for the office? Your prosperity depends to a large extent on tho manner you nro taxed and the amount of taxes you pay. You want men in official positions who pay taxes themselves, and not those who aro interested only that a large percentage may lodgo in their pockets. We mako those reflections at this time thnt the solor, thinking voters of the county may have ample time torefloct.TUo township elections will Boon bo hero and theso same princi ples should bo carried out in mak ing nominations and elections. Take tho first step in this direc tion at tho very next opportunit', if you have not nlrendy done so. And your children and your children's children will rise up and call you blessed. Well !

We lioiie the ox-judge will not be disap- ipointed but the fact seems to lie that the only available places for Pike Democrats under Ibis adminis tration me those which require strength and speed. Brains don't count. The administration desires to be consistent. Our M. C is no doubt a power and his say ought to prevail, but fellow citizens you must remenilier that there are but two Democratic nieinliers from this state in the next House and when one of them attempts to cover half the state he must necessarily attain great tenuity.
