The Content for the ProHecutorshlp.
The contest for the orfice of Prosecutor, made vacant by the death of John McNew, is becoming interi sting. There are now five candidates actively in the race for the position, viz: W. F. McBane, Charles Downing, Marshall B. Gooding, U. S Jackson and John F. Wiggins. While R. L. Ma«on is not a candidate, still, if the fight becomes very warm between the other candidates, he could, in the Interest of harmonv, be induced to take the position. Robert Williamson is not in the fight, as he is holding off so as to be in good position to run for Judge in 1900. That is a long way off, but there is nothing like a good ready. There are a few more Democratic lawyers, but we have not heard them mentioned in this contest.
