The resolution was passed. BE ON TINE. One of the most discouraging things in connection with the County Union meetings is that the delegates will not come to the meetings at the time of opening. It ia well known that the time of meeting is 11 o’clock (a. m. not p. m.), yet not one-third of the delegates are ever at the court houae on time. They keep coming in till 1 o’clock, and by the time the last delegate gets in others begin to leave. Consequently half that is done at the meetings is not known Uncle Sam will hold examinations throughout the country for Railway Mail Clerks, Custom Houae Clerks, Stenographers, Bookkeepers, De partmental Clerks andother Govern ment Positions.
