At Merriman last Friday the popu-lists

and democrats of the third com-

missioner¬

district met in conventionand without making a nomination ad-

journed¬

to meet ac the same place onSaturday September 24 at whichtime a full delegation from each pre-

cinct¬

in the district should be presentIt is generally conceded that the fusionnominee shall be a democrat hencewe would advise all the democraticbrethren to turn out and nominate agood clean man There is much finecommissioner timber among the demo ¬

crats in that section of the countrvand the conventions should have nodifficulty in selecting a man who willsatisfy the most exacting both regarding ability and political standingThe friends of reform should bear inmiad that the retiring commissiouerhri made an enviable record as afriend of economy and a foe to poorbusiness methods in our county govern-ment

¬

thus rellecting credit upon hisparty and his successor should beworthy of his place Once more weurge all democrats and populists tosee that full delegations are present atthe conventions
