Z."in the mud. We wish to give an account of the G. 0. P. primary at the X roads. There was eleven of the faithful present. We met and we deliberated and it was resolved that we, the eleven faithful ones, wanted office and we wanted to be the delegates, and we vottd as there was three delegates to elect, it was agreed to send the three who received the most votes. The first ballot stood, eleven votes caHt and eleven names presented and it ran thus to Ihe 24th bullot. It was theu moved that we take a recess of five minutes for Cole to make a few remarks. He said in part: "Fellow citizens aud countrymen, you all know me.. You know tliat I am one of the tried and true; you have knowu me from childhood; you know that I have held the office once and I want it again ; yon know that I want any ollice that 1 can gut if I qan get it legitimately. I move we proceed to b 'llott." It was found upon a close count of the ensuing hnllot that there were eleven nanius, but some way the doctor had received two vote and was therefore elected. The next ballot resulted in the election of Charley by two votis. Before going further my patriotism compelled me to make a few more remarks. I took occasion to remind the remaining ten faithful that they had known me from childhood; that they knew iu the daya of my boyhood how I played around their doorsteps, and pulled their cats' taila and their dogs' tails until they howled their loudest howls, and I am still a republican Uhci.i Isaac.

' The Eusselville telephone is under construction and it would soon be complete were it not for farming. The Eueeelville men mean business.
