principles are such as to forbid him to
support any man who is not thoroughly
loyal.
Col VIM X CARR, our nominee for
Prothonotary, is gentleman of fine attain
ments and unimpeachable character. His
clerical abilities, moreover, are OF the first
order His name familiar word through
out the county, none will fail to accord
him the highest praise public-spirlted
citizen, while the fact that he is now a
candidate for public office for the first
time, also speaks volumes in his behalf
The office of Prothonotary-which should
not be allowed to be made monopoly by
a few individuals-is one of incalcu'able
importance to the People of the county,
and that man does not exist who can dis
charge its varied duties more acceptably
than can Col. Carr
For County Commissioner we have
JOHN ELDER, a man against whose char
actcr no whisper of suspicion has ever
been brcathed. He is cmphatically the
man to keep watch and ward over the in-
terests OF the tax payers. lIailinS, more
over, from section of county which is
eminently entitled to representation in
the Board of Commissioners, his election
would be no more than mere act Of
justice Vote for him, and get others to
do likewise.
In JOHN H. FISHER, our candidate for
District Attorney, we have a NAV fitted in
every respect for the office. He has al
ready given indication of skill and ability
in the legal profession, and, although a
young man, must soon attain TO an envia-
BILE position at the bar. Courteous and
affable in social intercourse, prompt in the
discharge of all business duties, moral and
upright, and endowed with talents OF no
ordinary degree: he will make most ex-
cellent custodian of the public interests
attaching to the Office for which he is a
candidate.
WM. BERKsTRFssER, our candidate Tor
Poor House Director; G. T. ROBERTS, our
candidate for Auditor; T. r. DAVIS, our
car didate for Coroner; and +. A. NlCK-
ROY, our candidate for Surveyor, are each
and every one well and favorably known
to the People of the county. The offices
to which they have been nominated are
important in their character, and should
be filled by good mer. That hcy belong
to this class cannot be successfully gain
sayed, while their qualifications are such
as to entitle them to your confidence and
support Vote for them, one aud all .
Such, Freemen Of the Mountain
County. is our Ticket. Is it not worthy
of your unqualified support? 1t is. Can
we elect it Yes. Then to work The
enemy is active and vigilant, and it will
REQUIRE our best efforts to crush him. But
it can be donei "a long pull, strong
pull, and pull altogether" and the job
is effected.
OuT GAUSS Is llS SHteous pic. u
Democracy have rejected every overture
Of Cancellation, and-althougn loath to
engage in a partisan struggle just at pres
ent-we have no other remedy than to
eight on our own hook" If we succeed
in putting that party down-cffcctually
and forever-we will have done the State
good service. We can ty, at all events.
Let the loyal people OF the county, with
out distinction of party, reflect calmly on
their duty in the premises. If they are
able tc distinguish between their right
hand and their left, we have no fears as to
the result of their conclusions.
