TIE COUNTY TREAsURYsHIP.

MR. EDITOR-The most singular reason Iha v @
ever heard of upon which to base a candid ate g
claim for office was, if am rightly informed,
and think am, made use of q fcw days ago
by one of your competitors for County Treas
urcr, who. by The way, is credited with still
was nominated or not so that he succeeded in
beating yourself and a certain OF her candidate
in whom / feel an interest beyond all others
named. But that amt what ] started out to
tell You. The gentleman to whom | refer
claims that either himself or his particular
urer, because, forsoOth, they each pay more
than double the amount of tax which Yourself
aud my friend both together pay: or, to bring
It down 10 fine point himself and his friend
cOnlO.ntly are the pOsSCSSOr of more than four
times the amount of property which yourself
claim to. Ergo the Office should tie bcstowc cd
upon one who really don't need it, while he to
whom ii would be IL God-Scnd must be counted
out. That Is to say poor tuen have no rights
which their more fortunate neighbors are
bound to respect.
The same seeker after Office, / am assured. is
busy circulating the report that the Democratic
party OF Cambria county has been keeping YOU
for number of years and that you have no
right to expect nor should you receive any
more favors from that source. Well, 1t NAV be
that you haven earned al! you have got from
the Democracy of this county, although / atn
told that you are II hard orilIug man and that
you run your business on the most economical
principles; still IL does seem little queer that
II man whom au entire party is engaged in
keeping, and who is said by means be IL
spendIHrift, hasn I one-i ourth as much proper
ty as the man who boasts of the amount of
taxes he pays aud thinks that ought to be
deemed all sufficient to secure him the aOmi-
nation for County Treasurer.
Yours. FAIR PEAY.
