A Voice from Kankakee.
Editor Republican: Mr. Robinson was nominated by the popular vote of the Republic anpKrtyY by a very large majority, when he had two good men ter compete with, which shows that the people have confidence in him, as a faithful officer, and one who will not betray the people’s trust. He will be electee! next fall just as easily as he was nominated last spring. The Message man, in at tacking Mr. Robinson, censures the people’s judgment in selecting their candidate. We have read the Message, and we fail to learn to what party it belongs. It reminds us of the fable of the bat. There was war between the beests of the fields and the fowls of the air. The bat fought on both sides until both disowned him; then he concealed himself in a hollow tree, and ever since the war he has not dared to show his face only after dark. Message man, take warning from the bah Remember the . cheap Stores, and give me a trial; if you are nst satisfied, it will be. time to* go elsewhere. Emmet ix&unal. 1
