The Republican Primary Elec-'Vtofi-4s—in progress as we go to | press. The result will be generally known before another number of The Republican can be issued. It is quite probable that some portions of the county will not be so .veil represented upon the ticket as •may to them seem just but it must < be,remembered that it is a difficult natter in a primary election to j ive as much consideration to the: claims of locality, as could be done j ni a delegate convention. A number of good men must necessarily !>e disappointed, but if they are j nen as we believe them to be, if i .hev are men in any way deserviiig’d the Republican party, either .now or herearfter,—then they will .ccept in a manly and honorable I pirit the result of the election, tlnd give to their successful rivals and to the entire ticket, as genuine and hearty support would had they themselves been the nominees. A man who cannot accept deteat in a cheerful and philosophic •manner, ought never to ask for a political office.
