The ninn who cannot snj nnv

or get out of that party. A politi-,-!,!
"IniM'ker" in a barnacle. It a
absurd to imagine that in the
election of nominees of any party
in convention that all people can
he natisfied in those selei tions. It
is ulsn the heiL'ht of ahsurditv for
any disgruntled rn.ht.cian to -

humlrcd citizens selected from tin
various precincts to attend n coun
ty convention for tho naming of
nominees of his party in a political
contest. Tho political "knocker"
is in the same cutegory with the
"knocker." About the most ridic
ulous man in any community,
though, is the man who, elected as
a delegate to his county convention
to assist n the selcctum of party
nominees, goes out of that convent
ion and cither secretly utalia the
nrimiqoc ol his party in the hack,
or openly espouses and champions
the cause of a political enemy!
When he looks in the glass he
must certainly see a splendid

Some lime since a report was

tho effect that Furnish had, while
acting as marshal of a Fourth of
Jul v parade, ordered ' the 'old
veterans of Kit Carson post opt of
the Hue of march. This story was
circulated hy one James who has
sen sent to the penitentiary lor
huichirv. A statement has been
signed by ten members or the post
showing ttiat the only thing tnai
Furnish did was to have Kit Carson
pot to fall out and take the place
aligned it by the commltee and
that said place in the line of march
wns an honorary one. A drown

the democratic party was on the
verge of di-olution when it has to
fall back on such things as this
story circulated by one who was at
.he time a candidate tor me pen
itentiary. The weather has been fluctu.it
inu for some time between had and
indifferent and is no doubt attiih
