Special Correspondence of the Gazette. Mtlrphyv. Aug. 25. Never in the his tory of Cherokee county has the repub lican' party been In such good shape as now, harmonious and united, owing in a great degree to the wise, capable and energetic manner in which Chairman LN. Z. Deweese has reorganized the various percincts and put into practice his theory of honest, business politics. Under the able tutelage of his father, the old - warhorse df republicanism, Hon. Drury W. Deweese, he early showed an aptitude for politics, and was never known to falter, but was al ways in the thickest of the fray. Mr. Deweese is a candidate for clerk of the Superior court, and his election is a foregone 'conclusion. The largest crowd that has attended a county convention here in many years assembled in the court house today. Every face, from the young man just about to cast his first vote, to the old, .rugged fellow who has been battling for republicanism every four, decades, all wore looks of enthusiasm and confi dence. The reason good; the ticket clean; -the party confident and eager lor the struggle fit as a fiddle and fine as spun silk. The convention was called to order at 1 o'clock, Judge J. T. Patterson toe ing elected chairman and John T. -Hampton secretary. The following ticket was balloted upon and declared the nomi nees: Representative Mark W. West. Clerk of Superior court N. Z. De weese. Register of deeds T. C. McDonald., Treasurer Thomas Payne. Coroner J. L. Berrong. Surveyor Francis Ltovingood. Sheriff W. M. Ramsey. Commissioners R. B. Ferguson, W. . Bruce and C. C.
