But the truth is that the party was never freer from such domination than just now. But If there Is still a remnant of that spirit that would gain political ends despite •f, rather than by the consent of the people, we join General McNulta in 'demanding that it be driven from (he republican domain, and we suggest that the effective way of driving It •Htls for the republican voters to attend en masse the primaries in their •••oral counties this spring and ex­ press their preferences In the choice 0 candidates. Chicago Tribunes (Senator Flfer's speech before the Republican gathering at the Grand Pacific Tues­ day was a clever piece of lmpromtu oratory. It recalled some of the humorous periods of the late Emery Storrs. The best passages were those referring to Grover Cleveland's patri­ otism by proxy and the hypocrisy •f the Democratic party la matters of Xffara. But underlying the humor of |£M» speech there was much seriousness and the gentleman from Bioomlngton •cored a point when he said it was MKWtsary not only that the Republi­ can* should appear before the people with a better record than their oppo- aants, but also that they should pre­ sent a better "prospectu8u--a better program for the future, in order to •eiecre suocess. The speeches of the other Gubernatorial candidates were ttsaely and eloquent, and proved that oratory is act a lost art in the State of Llwpoln and Douglas. States' Attorney. v'TWi) weeks ago, in calling attention to bis Announcement, we spoke of the candidacy of M. F. Ellsworth for the Office of States1 Attorney, but in ad- Wtently omitted to notice the An­ nouncements of A. W. Young, of Harvard, and A. B. Coon, Jr., of Jlareogo, which appeared last week. A. W. YOCNO, of Harvard, the pres­ ent incumbent of the office, has held the same for on* term, and we believe has discharged the duties to the en­ tire satisfaction of the people of the eeanty. He has the ability, is pains- taking, and we believe, if elected, will In the future, as in the past, do hlm- eelf and the office honor. His An­ nouncement can be found iu another place in this paper. A. B, COON, JB., IS a rising young lawyer of Marengo, and a son of A. B. 'Qoen, the Nestor of the McHenry County bar. He has had a large ex­ perience, has ability of a marked de­ gree, is a sound Republican, honest and upright, and should he be nomi­ nated |and elected, would do honor teeth to himself and the office which be ieeks. Read his Announcement else­ where in this paper. > SOP" Hen. A. M. Jones, Chairman of the Republican State Central Cotn- ultteee, has issued the oflclal call for the state convention. The materal part of the call is as follows: Republican voters of Illinois are quested to meet in county conventions Md elect delegates to a Republican State Convention to he held at Spring- laid, on Wednesday, May 2,1888, 12 o'clock noon, for the purpose nominating candidates to be voted nt the November election of 1888 •11 the following office, to wn: Governor, Lieutenant-Governor,, See^ ? rotary of State, Auditor of Publie •oeounts, States Treasurer, Attorney ; General, four Trustees of the Unlver- altf of Illinois, and «lect four dele- gatos-at large and four alternates to tfce Republican National Convention, Wad of transacting such other business Mmay come before it, the delegates imm the county of Cook, so elected, to t£ flailed and to vote :by Senatorial lets. The basis of representation he the vtote oast for the Repubit- Presidential Electors of 1884, to " One delegate for every 400 votes 00 for each fraction of 200 votes." total number of delegates in the n urn pdT ftmrrfrt'"~ will be 847. of which pPMtaiy Genntf will bate oin«f < , "• ' The re- at of I for to wit ' MR. C* The totter of Hen. to the Secretary of the Conkllng Clab of Pittsburg. Pa., has undoubtedly been read with deep Interest by Re­ publicans all over the country. Aftor stressing his thanks for the compli­ ment conveyed In the mention of bis name as a candidate for the Presiden­ cy, and in naming a campaign club In his honor, the essential portion ol the letter proceeds to say: **Without reference ' to candidates, it will be a great satisfaction If a club bearing my name shall contribute la any way to reinstate the organization, whose wisdom and earnestness proved so useful during the most traglo and try­ ing period ot our history. To ate that parly again triumphant and united, worthy of itself and of Its past the brave and honest champion of the right, the welfare and progress of 63- 000,000 people, is Inspiration enough for all Republicans, in that hope I unite with you and all who cherish It in sincerity." This leaves no doubt as to where Mr. Conkling will be found In the ap­ proaching campaign. It is safe to say that he will be found doing yeoman's service in behalf of the Republican cause hereafter, as be has been In the past, whether as a standard-bearer of the party, or as a subordinate In the ranks. Though withdrawn from public service for years, Mr. Conkling ts still recognized as a power In the State where bin ability, Influence and elo­ quence have constituted so important a factor In previous campaigns. That bo will be so in the campaign of this year may be assured without doubt.-- Springfield Journal, Annual Town Meeting* NOTICE is hereby given co the citizens, le-gal voters of the Town of McHenry, and State of Illinois, chat the Annual Town Meet­ ing for said town, will be held at the Council Room in said town, on Tuesday, the 3d day of April nest, being the first Tuesday in caid month, for the purposes following, viz.: FIRST-- To choose a Moderator to preside at said meeting.
