When there in nn opportunity to
sleet u tjtiHiiK'SH iniiii tn a business
oflieo, as at the priaont time to elect
J. A. Mover to Ihe olliot, ofcutily
clerk, it, should not he disregarded hy
the voters, for bui h opportuuitiot arc
not too plentiful. Mr. SInvir will
conduct tlie ollioo in a husiiiem lil.e
manlier, as it iniii-t he conducted.
Tho volume of business in the clerk'
ofllcc in very largo nd requires the
attention of a responsible und cvperi-
enced business iniiii. Ill his term of
ollice an cnunly commissioner, C. F.
I.ovolaco has shown himself tncrgctic
and judicious in the condiicl of county
business and has acquired n clou
knowledge of county alitor that will
makii him immediately a I home In the
sherill'a office. Twoyiius ngo, Mr.
Lovelace was elected cciiiiuissiniicr by
a good iniijority und if oxocjloiieii in
olllcial capacity counts for anything
lie should h eh clod fliei -1 IT thin yi ai
hy a bigger nuijorily, for he in u
thoroughly good ollicer mid a mini
whom the voter will supp rt w ith
the moHt thorough eonfldencn.
One of (he mat Urn which will he
roiiHidered hy tho voters at tliu coin
ing election in the prnpoHcd ir unary
nomination law, hy which It 1h do
signed that the people shall main'
tho nominal ions without the assist
nncu of conventions. Tim object of
tlio law in good, hut whither the
means ill view w ill bring n limit Ihe
end desired, in a mailer for Ihe
voters to earnestly coiiHidcr. The law
will require mi election for each
party's prinnry, with printed bal-
lolH, tinolliH, judges, clerks, registered
voters, and nil cxpi uses necessary to
a regular elei'tiou. Votem aro re
quired to register their political
faiths, so that t Ik y may not he al
lowed to Vole in the primaries of
other parties, Candidates are ohlip il
to declare Ihetnm Ives heforehand and
file their decliinitioliH of camliilacy.
Tlio gravest objection seemn to he that
the nomination is necessarily ,
plurality vote. In tho present method,
it requires u majority of the delegate).
In the coiiveulion to nomluiite. Where
there are a half dn.cii aspirants fot
nine particular ollice, the pluraliiy
caudidatn is likely to he very tar
from lielng the cholcii of the inajorily
of his party. IioUmI, it is piohahh
that tlio candidate favored hy any or.
gat: I .at ion or comhiuatiou of interests
may securu Ihe iiomnatiou much
luoiu easily than hy the present
method, for he will have sstinialii
and united NUsirt while his oppnsi
tion will he diviiled. U is easy to
fee how the oiicratiou of the law may
defeat the vi ry ohjiet for whiih it Is
propositi,
