National questions will not cut as much figure in regard to the county officers as it will on the legislative end of the ticket That fact will enure to the advantage' of the Democratic nominees for county offices, as the Democrats have had no National policy for the past few1 years to speak of, unless the plan of being against "everything that is can be called a policy. That fact will hurt their legislative prospects and help their, opponents. The Republicans, however, to carry their legislative ticket will need all the help they can secure. In addition to the personal weakness of their ticket, there is the dissatisfaction of a very large section of the party as to the manner in which the nominations were made, that being regarded as the arbitrary acts and manipulations of a clique.
