EDITOR F*LAINI»KA LTFR:-- While the PLAINDKALKR is cqitarely out for John A. Logan for President of the United States. I see no inrtrmittQii as tp whom it will ftipporr for Governor of Illinois. We notice that Gov. limn ilton la highly *p«keti-«*f. nnd many afe desirous that he $hotkld be i<nu>lua:eri to succeed himself. I hear no fault found will* him whatever, as G«»vcruor,Lieutenant Governor or State Senator, Hie record seems to bo bright and dear all the war through. Such being the ense, is it not customary to give a hearty ei^. dotseuieut by retaining the ffflcient and trtistwortby officer foi1 aifcaai A second term ? Governor Haftiilton IS rattier a" mnrkalile man. Few so young have inenntcd the la«l<lcr of fame so high and so rapidly; and It bespeaks for him a sound mind and good character. His early life was spent in labor on a farm in this State. By rigid economy and industry he managed to secure a com* mon tclieol education and a thorough college course. When tho rebellion broke out lie was too young to enter tiie army, but, as soon as he could be admitted he went hi as a private sol­ dier. shouldering the oiusket and fight­ ing utanluily for his country, Mr. Hamilton began the practice of law In Bloomington in 1S70 and made rapid advance in the profession. In 1876 he was elected to.our State Senate, and at once took a conspicuous place in that body as a political leader and States­ man. He? was the author and mover of the bill establishing our Appellate Courts, At the.commencement of the second session of his terpi, he was unan­ imously chosen In the Republican cau­ cus tor President of the Senate, and elected thereto by the entire vote of the party and Mr. Hutley the Inde­ pendent Senator. His ability and skill as a parliamen­ tarian received the highest tribute of praise, and proved that confidence in liitu had not been misplaced. In 1880 Mr. Hamilton, in the State Convention received the nomination for Lieuten­ ant Governor on the first ballot, over: four competitors. In the campaign of that year he made sixty-nine political speeches', without missing an appoint­ ment, and was elected by over 41.000 vmajority. Last year Governor Cuilom was elected to the United States Sen­ ate, and upon bis resignation the office ef Governor devolved upon Mr. Hamil­ ton. How lr.ithlully and well he has discharged the high trust thus Imposed upon him history tells. He has vetoed several bills looking to private gains, and also those Intended t6 cripple the State law for the regulation and con­ trol of railroad corporations; His noble conduct at the time of the torri- ble disaster at Braidwood, when eighty coal miners lost their lives, is worthy of great commendation; also, when the floods on the Ohio submerged a large portion of Gallatin and Hardin Coun­ ties in our State, he sent messengers with army tents to shelter the 6uflerers unilstw that means were provided to relieve their distress. And thus it lias been oirall occasions when it requin d prompt and ettkjeut action on the part of the executive. Governor Hamilton lias responded and done his duty. He is now about 37 years of age. just In the prime ef his noble nranliood. He has given much of iiis life to the ser­ vice of our Statfe and the Republican party. He has had much valuable ex­ perience in political affairs, aud stand­ ing as he does in the very zenith of life, abreast of and in accord with the present active generation of men and the progressive sentiments of tiie age, lie Is certainly well qualified to render as much service to the Stale and party as the)* can render to iiim. It therefore seems to me that justice to a faithful public servant and tiie best interests of our great State de­ mand that Governor John M. Hamilton should be his own successor to tiie gubernatorial chair of this proud coin- uiouwealth ol Illinois. %* JCITICE. after they acquired enough confidence in their own voices to call for, one couple more, loud enough to be heard beyond the set in which they were cnPlng.

As has been the case before the entertain­ ment consisted' of more or less IWUMC and con­ siderable vptingand strife toseewhich eftwo parties could beat the other, by securing ilie greater number of votes for their candidate. Op both Friday and Saturday evenings parties from Wancondt visited the McHenry skating rink. Thev all express themselves a« highly pleased with the hall and skates, their entertainment, the ride, iii fact everything was apparently very lovely. It was rather cold Friday evening, but so far as we have been able to learn, some ot the party suffered pirticnlarly on that account, but on the other hand were "very comfortable." Another race on the lake Saturday after­ noon, lesultcd in another victory for J F Itooneys horse. It has teemed to some a rath­ er peculiar circumstance, that Jack always beats, but it seemed to be generally under-, stood Saturday that tho trou.tie with the; other horses, was their inability to get there quick enough.
