AX UPRIGHT JllMiE
When Judge Robert Jennings was
In the city a few days ago hu con
su I toil the general sentiment regard
ing the Commisalonership hero, aud
found that under the direction of
Jud;;e Martin Conway, the office had
neeu conducted lu such a satisfact
ory manner that thero was no occa
sion for making a change, even if
Mr. Conway Is not a member of the
Democratic party, and so Mr. Jen
nings gave lnsrtuctions to havo the
present Judge retained.
This Is certainly a compliment
lo Mr. Conway, who lu the ordinary
course of political ovents should
have been requested to vacate, re
gardneua of his fitnoHs for tho place.
This Is another evidence that par
tisanship Is losing Its old-time pull,
and men aro being sought for the
place Instead of the place being
sought for tho man.
The meeting of the I.adles Aid so
cloty of tho Methodist church has
been postponed until two weeks
from tomorrow, which will bring the
meeting dte aon July 30.
Thero will be a regular meeting
of the Kaglos tonight, at 8:30 sharp,
lluslness of an Important nature
will come up and all members are
desired to be present.
