our COUNTY TICKET.

III
of the very best material The county
affords. In our estimation no better
choice Of candidates could have 0beea
made, and, if they are all elected, we
will not hesitate to guarantee thai osk
county affairs for the next three yeaia
will be run with intelligence, pru.
dence aud economy.
VIM. p. Finley, candidate for State
Senator from this District, Is q men in
every way qualified to gil the position
his friends hope to place bins in. The
nomination WAS not his seeking. aud
had he not been called cut BY upward
of Eve hundred voters, would never
have been . candidate for any Office
within the gift Of the people. A lit
tie effort in eacbsci the counties Of the
district will elect him, and we hope to
see him run far ahead Of his ticket in
this county.
For Associate Judge We present the
name of Edward Kerr, Of Barnett
township. Mr.. Kerr Is an old resi.
dent Of the county, straight Repub-
licsn aud man who weuld grace the

I. j. Van Giesen, our candidate for

him we'll for the Office of Prothonotary !.
That he has made an acceptable and
accommodating Sheriff, no one will
deny, and he will do himself and the
ProthoLotary's Office credit for the
next three years. His record AZ sol.
der, as q citizen, and As a civil off.
GER, is free from blemish, and no rea-
sonable man cap SAX better csndi-
date for the position than be.
For Sheriff, Justis Shswkey of Bar

without fear or favor. Hc is q man

doubted integrity.
For Commissioners, we present the |
names of John Reck and Gilbert
Jameson. No better rnen for tue po-
sition have ever been before the peo.
pie. In their hands, the affairs of the
cnunty will be safe. No one who |
knows them need be assured that the
business appertainiug to that Office in
their hands, will be carried on with
economy and fairness. Equal and
exact justice to all, will be meted out,
and the taxpayers will never regret

For Jury Commissioner H. 2. Tow.
ner, Of Green, is sure Of an election.
in any event, but We cannot forbesr
saying that he is an upright, intelli-
gent aud honorable man. He served
with honor in the SD Pa. Regt.. and
his record rs private citizen is pure.
We hope, at some future time, to vote
for him for higher Office.
T. ID. Collins. our candidate for
County Surveyor, is q practical busi-
ness man, and one of the most aecu.
rate surveyors in this section. He
served, with honor, a term as County
Commissioner, and is louked up to as
one Of our most solid citizens. 1t
may be we'll to state that the Office
seeks him, not he the Office. .,,5.ttEl
