There is some doubt as to the p«w r
©'the next Domovmtie Count)’ Conven-
fi hi to e’eet Jeh'gwU.s t j tlw Judkinl and
(Jongreaaioual Convention.*.' The call i f
the Kiccu’ive Comniiiteespecilles an tl e
only pmposes of the convention the elec
tion of delegates to the Sbute convention
and the rcorginhcation of ihc party in
fhc county. Several years ago under
Hinitar conditions the efforfintion refused
to sc: and a second couventium ©as held
for that purpose. It would be well for
tin clubs to consider this quutiou and to
instruct theiP delegates as to their a 'oh<£.
If this is done and the people arc in (a-
vur of immediate action the convention
em, iu jur opinion, safely act and avoid
the trouble of holding another oonven-
ton.
Wc Invc been uated whether the
pledge required of all Itaniocratic ' olc^
at the primary election binds them to
voti for the party's candidates for Presi
dential electors and for Congress. The
Words of the pledge arc : “1 solemnly af
firm that I am an enrolled member of
this club, ami a legally qualified voter of
■ Township, Dnruwell county, or wi 1
be so by the next election; that I be*
liiiTe iu the principles and purp-ses of
the Democratic | arty and will do all ia
Aiy power to promote ita success, uud
that I have not voted before at this clec-
tiou.* Wc think it requires fruu the
voter taking It • hearty support pi the
wh do ticket, but others plaoc a different
construction and think-it requires only
the support of the State and county tick
et. The County convention should dc-
1c as to which is the proper coustiuc
tion.
The Dni) •I'lhr Nuur,
( This is election year ; in theory the
people elect their servants, iu practice
olVcutiatew scheming aspirants force
tlicmselvus into the position of public
sonants against the wii of the people.
When this is done the safeguards of lib
rrly arc broken down aud rights of the
people are in danger of total destruction-
The people ahould keep at least abreast
cf if not ahWd of the politicians.
The coming countv contention will
have grnvc ilutics to perform, ft seeios
lh|it the present Slate ticket will bo rc
nominetrd. Wo believe it is as at cepta-
Me to the people ofollamwoll c(*untv h>
to the bal nice of the Sta'f, so the duty
of electing dt leg iter to the State con von-
iion will be a simple ono.
The coming Congrcsaiouul election pre-
■ :nta questions of difficulty which ought
to be solved by the people. It hu-l»ccn
rumored that the name of;i distinguisbtd
citizen of this county Would bo submit-
> t d to tl c eonvcftHun. He has web and
worthi'y discharged the uumcruus lru«ts
ro iflicd to him by the people. His life
his bcou distinguished by its singular pvr-
f mal pm by and constant devotiou to the
public good. Hut he h is never, so far
as wc are informed, djelared his purfosc
t i enter the race, and wc fel that it Would
be wrong in us, strongly as we honor him,
to invade the privacy of bis life, and
•peak of him a? occupying H poihion
which he ha* uut yet takcu and may nev

A Shark and an alligator.—
Apafochioolu Tribune: On last Fri
day a combat between n 10 fo il man eat
er ihnrk and a 7 foot alligator w;w wit
nessed at Knst Pjm, near Pilot Grove.
When hi- shurksliip spied the alligator,
he went for him ut a Uvcly rate, cleav
ing- the water witV Incredible, rapidity.
The id'igator stood his ground and
awaited the assault with blinking eyes
nnl open mou'h. Seeing his tint agon Lf
prepared tor him, the wily shark made
only a seaning -attempt at attack, aud
rushed by hiv gatorsbip with increased
ve'o ity. When a few feet only rftter-
vc-jod, the shark, by a turn k iown only
to this fidt, wheeled with Ifohtuiug ra
pidity and pounced upon his enemy.
Quick as the m iveuieut was it did not
succeed. As the naurian and the fish
came together there was a terrible churn*
ing of the phosphorescent waters for a
moment, aud then the shuik darted off
a few foet, turned once more quickly
ui>on its stomach, nnd his ponderouc juws
closed upon the snurian's middle Then
there was a crushing of bones nnd flesh
for a sccoud, the water wa* dyed with
the saui ian’s life b'ood, and ihcii one-
half of the deluated foe was seen to dis-
up|>ear down the cavernous throat of the
shark.
