Ihere was 4 time when we could call

the proposition advanced by the Lee
township delegates have learned that they
were the correct ones under the circum.

forgets anything.

cies of Mr.. STEPHEN DouGHERrY. can
didate for Infrmary Director during the
late campaign; but shall not condescend
to reply to any part of his abuse.
MIR. DoUGHERTY was first elected In
firmary Director in 1866; was a second
time nominated aud elected in 1869,
served one year and then resigned; in
1871 he was again nominated and elect
ed to ill his own vacancy of one year.
After the Central Committee had fixed
the time for holding the late Convention,
Mr.. DoUGHERTY sent 50 to this Office
with orders to announce his name for
Infirmary Director. wrote the an
nouncement, and, few papers had been
printed off, whel my attention was call.
ed to the fact that the term had been
omitted. I Immediately had "third
term inserted in his announcement in
order that the people might vote with
full knowledge of how many terms the
gentleman had already held the Office.
Mr.. DoUcHERTY complained to the
voters of this county, at Beallsville and
other places, that he could not get his
tickets. He did not order single ticket
printed at this office this year and none
Dere printed for him, except those prin.
ted for the candidates for Probate Judge
and Commissioner, which had his name
printed in, as well as the names of other
candidates for the same office.
We gave our readers the truth in Mr..
DoUGHERTY's announcement and that
displeased him, in fact, caused him to
make very great many statements that
were without any foundation in fact;
and we think he, in his calmei moments,
will regret his unwise and Incorporate
language. HENRY R. WEST,
