PRESIDENT JUDGE.

Mr.. EDITOR The time is near at hand
when the people of this county will have to
select candidates for the various offices to be
filed at the October election and while It is
highly important that good men should be
chosen for every position, we. in common
with the voters Of Cumberland and Perry
counties. have one Office to fill of more than
ordinary Importance mean that of Presi-
dent Judge, an Office We are called upon to
fill only once in ten years, and which, from
its very nature, requires that no one VINO
does not possess the necessary qualifications
should be selected TO ELL. The candidate
should be man of sound legal learning
strong mind. good judgment, unbending in
tegrify, industrious habits, and one who can
control his temper, be firm and entirely free
from all political bias, and who would zeal
ously guard the interests of the people in the
administration of justice. know of no one
in the District who possesses these qualities
in . more eminent degree than the Hon. B.
+. JuSKIN, of Bloomfield, Perry county
Mn. JUNKIs is well and favorably known in
this county. and, could he be prevailed upon
to permit his name to be used as candidate,
his nomination would be gratifying to almost
every Republican in this county. Cumber-
land county has had the candidate ever since
the formation of the District, and it would
hardly be just or fair for them TO claim it
gain At this time. POPULUS.

IN the United States Court, at Erie, Of
attempting to defraud the Government
out of large amount of pension money
on Wednesday performed an act which
entities him to take immediate rank
among the most daring criminals that
the age ha. produced. On Tuesday
evening Judge McCandless sentenced
the prisoner to FIVE years imprisonment
in the penitentiary and a fine of $1,000,
for forging the signatures to the pension
papers, also to alike penalty for forging
the signatures to vouchers. and to four
years imprisonment and $1,000 fine for
opening and OBTAINING letters. The pris-
oner heard the sentences with some emo
ton. He was taken back to prison
where he remained until morning, when,
at ten o'clock on Wednesday the officials
of the court started for Pittsburg. Turner

Deputy Marshals. Campbell and Hall.
The prisoner was hand cuffed in the
most secure manner, and seemed to be
perfectly easy in his bearing. The
deputy marshals stayed with him until
about two O'Clock in the afternoon, when
Hall walked into the smoking car and
left Campbell in charge Of Turner. The
prisoner soon afterward asked permission
to walk up and down the aisle of the car.
As he had been sitting down four conse
cutive hours the request seemed natural.
and, Turner wearing gives of the

alighted to look for their man. The po-
lice at Greenville. Mercer county, the
nearest station, we're telegraphed to to

obtained after he entered the closet. The
officers were, of course, con siderably an
noyed by his escape, but as they have
hitherto been esteemed among the most
efficient employees of the government it
is not likely that the affair will seriously
damage their reputation.
