He read a short sketoh of his abors amona them which has resulted n freeing the society from debt, and promoting unity and good fellowship imong lts members. Much regret is en;ertained by his flock in oonsequenoe of ;his decisión as he had won a warm place in their esteem and affection. The base betrayal of Mr. Landon in this county has forever destroyed the chance of any Washtenaw man either in the judicial or congressional district. We do not pretend to give the reason of this. We suspected something was in the wind, from the tone f gome of the A. A. paper, but looked for no futher detection tliat might be eipeoted from the personal democratie f riends of Mr. Kinne. There was, however, eridently underhanded secret work done, which is just as hable to be used, at another time, and against otuer oandidates as now, and 80 it is hardly worth while to keep up the form of a democratie orgamzation, or go to the trouble of making nominations. This eleotion "cooks the goose" for all Washtenaw democrats who shall run with IMonroe yotes.- Ypailanti Sentinel. That is about th size of it.
