On the Democratic «lde it ia pmb 1 able that Aire action of the concern ion ' will be merrly ftnmal, as it is understood 1 the re-nomination of the present incumbent! for the office# ot Assemblyman and ! Sheriff has practically been determined 1 upon. In Republican circle* there can ' be no accurate gnew made as to who ' will be selected by the convention Many food names have licen mentioned | and some otherwise, hut from present in. dirslinns we think it probable that the ' coovmtion will come together unpledged ( to any candidates or section of tlie coun. tv. In the interest of "the Republican" ' party we trust that this prediction may prove tnie when the day of the eonveution comes. While the prospects are * good for a harmonious mooting of the # a.nmiy eoovsAtiou. yd wo wish to urge c upon lheRi.pultii.no voter, f the county

the importance of attending the primary meetings and makings strong effort to afect 'he be-t men of the party a* defe- % galea, and they unpledged to any man or section of the county, let all who arc Interested In the success ot the Republican party realise that the selection of rsodldates Is often done and Hniaheti when tie egalcs am el"C«ed at the. primary meetings. If only good men are sent to the county convention, the (tarty can «af !y rely upon tlient to select t Inbest an I strongest men a- candid itcs f.-r tin- various office to.be filled. TUe appr arbhtg contest in this county it import Ot in all Its bearings. A Governor, Ot greasman. Aasnmblyiaan and Sheriff are to he elected. The A'semlilymsn elected will liate a vote for the election qf* United States Senator. It is possi ble that the party vole may be so close that the vole of the member of Assam • My from Cape May county may deride whether the Senator elected shall be a IVmsvst or Republic*!! Again it is possible that Ine vote of tlic Senator elc i d next year from New Jeracy will dts iile the majority In the United States Senate whether it be Republican or Democratic. Of course every intelligent Republic in is fully cogmz nt of these facts, anil yet we wi.h by rriteralioa to impress upon the Republicans of Cape May county, the grave importance of doing their duty at the primary meetings success or defeat. On Saturday morning last the 7 a. m. train from Gape May for Philadelphia was stop -ed by signsl at M llville.
