Wilcox and Jesse Adams were chcsen as delegates to the county convention. The preferential vote on the same occasion, though quite scattering, favored Pierce for Governor, Wakefield for Congress, S.

A man that can spin such whopping big yarns will be wanted in the U. S. Senate where his talents can be used to greater advantage. FRANK HASTY, • • «. * * • N otary Prm ic, .
