rii and woopurEr Gr the senate, We be-
lic,e the wishes of a great majority Of the
Republican party in thi, District have been
respected. In the last State senate, they
both occupied a commanding position, both
being industrious and hard working mem.

mediate constituents with zeal and faithful.

al sterling men, and either would have
filled the Office with marked ability; yet, it
i' no di.Tarusrmcnt 10 them to say, that
Mr.. Chase has the ability 10 fll that place
in a manner second TO no other man in tho

IIc wa. one Of the first to embrace Rcpub-
lean doctrines in thi. County. lie is "a

OF the most popular County officers we have
ever had in Old Oxford.

W. have never had the pleasure OF per-
s0ual acquaintance, only as We have occa-
sloually met him at public gatherings IN
the County. We are informed upon relia.
blc authority, that be is gentleman Of ex-
cel!ant judgment, prudent and discreet in
his opinions. firm and decided in whatever
he believes TO BE- right. and combines in his
general character many OF the peculiar quail
iGcations necessary to make COOL County
officer. Politically, We lave known Mr.
Chapman for many years He was one Of
the frs, in this County to break away from
the corruption Of the pro.slaSrry democracy
in Oxford County. Since that time, he has
ever been true to the great principles Of
RePublicanism, aud has lab0rcd for their
success through evil report and good report.
VI. Charles. selected for Register Of
Deeds, in the Western District, is man
every way qualified for the place. We
learn tia. he was selected, with great una
nimity Of feeling, by the Delegates from his
section Of the County fact which Is the
best evidence a man can have OF ms ftne..
Tor official station. NO better selection could
have been made.
On ballot Tor County Treasurer, JoscpL
Baro'rs, Esq, Of Hebron, received unan-
imous vote. Deacon Barrows is one Of the
most sincere, honest, upright men in the
world. lie is just the man FOX the place he
now fills. No man has a more kind or
honest heart, aud no one could attend more
faithfully aud promptly to the duties Of his
oaioe. With the masses such man is, and
always wall be, justly popular.
