Tbe populists and democrats in Mar

The populist ceutral committee Friday
refnsed to endorse th nominations on
the "Citizen' Ticket" for the offices cf
county judge, clerk and recorder, but like
remainder of the ticket was ratified.
The democrats rent a committee to pre
vail upon i he populht to ratify the en
tire ticket for the sake of hanuooy, but
their requetta were not uccntr-d to aitd
as a consequence their is a great amount
of dissension in the two factions that tb
leaders fear cannot ne Vtiitihictorily

probably the complete county ticket,
which was never very much in doubt, ia
now safely stmrl.

election of lS'j2and took cfDce March 1

1894 I wn re-elected, and filled tbe
offvai until Jan. 1, 1397. The term of
Assessor never has teen to commence
