Show I Tho political outlook is puzzling tho politicians. Next autumn thero will bo a state election for members of tho legislature), member of congress, a judge of tho supremo court and for county officers also. In this county tho question of fusion of nil thoso opposed op-posed to tho "American" party Is being be-ing talked of. It has, however, not met with tho favor of tho oxtromo partisans in either tho Republican or tho Democratic parties. At present tho prevailing sentiment is In favor ol I maintaining strict party lines oven at tho risk of tho "Americans" to carrying carry-ing tho county, slipping In between tho Republicans and Democrats as thoy did in tho city election. Tho election is a long way off and many things may arlso in tho meantlmo to entlroly change tho situation. Fusion on members of tho legislature and stato officers would bo a hard thing to arrange between tho Republicans and tho Democrats. Tho latter, anyway, any-way, are on their high horso because thoy polled moro votes than tho Republicans Re-publicans at tho recent olectlon. |
