The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1875-12-01

The people of M'Kean county
had a red hot contest for Sheriff at the
late election to fill the vacancy as they
supposed caused by the death of Sher-
iff Powell The Republican candi
date, G. S. King, won it, but another
man named Thomas King, had already
been appointed by the Governor and
commissioned under the new Cons5itu-
tiou to hold the Office till January
1877 instead Of 1876, as they supposed,
The vacancy occurred within three cal
endar months of the election, in which
case the constitution says "the election
tion for said officer shall be held at the
second succeeding general election"
For Prothonotary there was Tie, so
the old Prothonotary, Republican,
holds over until his successor is duly
elected next year. Verify, the amhi-
tious patriots of M'Kean have lots of
trouble in going where 'me country
calls. - Venango Citizen.
