p,,ol,,d That the nomination of Col. william
D:-,or Of Clearfeld county, as the Democratic

10 agreeable to the Democracy of Cambria, for
.so reason that we know him, and knowing him
,,r-aciate his many estimable qualities of mind
I'd heart. having represented Cambria for six
raars in the State Senate, we accord to him the
se,laration of "well done good and faithful ger
v.n,n the Democracy of Cambria will attest
their regard for their former representative by
increasing his majority at the Polls beyond that
usually given to the Democratic ticket.
Rs,oired, That in the nomination of Gen. Seth
Clover, for Canal Commissioner, we recognize
Democrat of merits and capacity, one who
will discharge the important duties that will be
entrusted to him with fidelity and an eye single
to Justice and right, Little Cambria" will roll
up a majority for Gen. Clover that will evince
their confidence in the man and their appreeia-
tiOn of his principles.
Resolved, That the nominations of the Har-
risburg Convention for the Supreme Bench will
receive cordial support from the Democracy
of Cambria county.
Resolved, That we pledge our undivided and
enthusiastic support to all the nominations made
this day and invoke the Democracy whom we
represent, to rally with enthusiasm around the
nominees of their party.
Resolved, That since the connection between
Bedford and Cambria in Congressional Dis
trict, the latter has always contributed largely
to the success Of distinguished citizens of Bed
ford county for Office, the political history of
past years shows how nobly Cambria stood by
the vote of her sister county in support of Hon.
Job Mann, and more recently swelled the ma
jority of another favored son of Bedford, Hon.
John Cessna, now Cambria claims to be the
Gibralter Of Democracy in this representative
district, and whilst we are willing to bury the
recolections of past injustice in oblivion, we
shall claim our right in this district for the fu-
ture.
