One 'was nominated bj-the Republicans, at a caucus, on the evening just preceding the election.

About fifteen months back, I purchased a No. 8 Concord Cooking Stove, which has proved satisfactory in every respect.

I can say without any hesitation it is the best cooking stove we ever used or saw used, baking with about one-half the wood as did the stove we used before we got this Concord. J. H. Williams, County Clerk. Oskaloosa, March 23.

Messrs. Shimmons Adams: Having used your Concord Cooking Stove, I find that it reqaires but little wood, and is a very good stove for Kansas, where we have a scarcity of timber. Very respectfully yours, B. McAllastkr, Deputy County Clerk. Kanawka, Kansas.

Messrs. Shimmons Adams Gents: The No. 9 Concord Cook Stove you sold me is a complete success. It needs but litile care and works fine. I cheerfully recommend it as the best stove ever used in my family for cooking, baking and heating a cold room.

J. C. Vincest. We are using the Concord Stove. Welik it.

It does the work of a stove equal anything we ever used. It bakes bread to a charm, and is very careful of the wood.

The ticket nominated was styled the "People's Ticket," though all of the candidates were known to be Republicans. After this meeting had adjourned, the dissatisfied ones bolted the action of the convention, and on the same night they assembled in an eight-by-ten room and selected a ticket, of their own which they agreed to support to the last. This conclave of bolters called theirs the "City Ticket," and commenced laboring vigorously for its success; while the friends of the other ticket madconly slight exertions in favor of theirs.

Ail kinds of reports calculated to injure the People's Ticket were circulated by its opponents as facts, and eveiy effort made to secure the success of the "cit'" affair. It was well known that the former was composedof men who did not hold saloons in a very exalted estimation, and for this ieason the ticket could not hope to, nor did not, receive any support from those who differed with them in this relation. At last the day arrived on which the people were to decide who should be "the men." The morning came forth in beauty; the air was mild and pleasant, the sky was clear, and "Old Sol" looked down from his high position and smiled upon our prosperous young city.

Newspaper men have the enterprise to publish neat, creditable papers, and they strain ever3r nerve to do this -but the people don't always second their efforts. They don't consider that the size and ap-parance of their home newspaper is a fair index of their own intelligence and enterprise that it shows by its face, every issue, whether it is starved or well supported. There is no class of people who do half as much for mankind and the general good, or who work so hard as newspaper men. Many of them are put to all kinds of expedients to get along, when there are hundreds of influential men who are greatly benefitted by the paper, who do nothing, comparatively speaking, to sustain it. These same men might easily speak a good word for it; get their friends to subscribe for it; sustain it with their advertise-ing patronage, and help build up a paper that would be a credit to their country and thus remunerate also a hard working man.

Every citizen of a county ought no more think of doing without his paper than without his meals. He ought to be animated by sufficient pride, if by no other motive, to sustain it, and thus see it a worthy representative of the people. Exchange. Wanted. Information of the whereabouts of Josiah F.

From this position they were again forced to retire, and finally withdrew into the city and shut the gates. The Versailles troops did not attempt to follow them.

An estimate which is probabl3T exaggerated, puts the losses of the National Guards at 200. The government troops shot their prisoners as rebels. The popular indignation against the Versailles governmeni is terrific. The Nationals threaten to attack Versailles. Special dispatches report that the 74th regiment of the line came to Paris on Saturday and fraternized with the rebels.

A dispatch from Versailles to-day says; Marshal McMahon has been appointed commander-in-chief of the French army. A dispatch from Paris this morning says the Commune has issued a proclamation which concludes as follows "Attacked by the Versailles government our mission is to protect the city, and we count upon the aid of all citizens." There was a continued movement of the Com-munial forces during the night and distant cannonading was audible this morning. The Rappel is beating everywhere in the city.
