Our District and County tickets arc
composed ofexcellcnt men. For State
Senator, we have DIR. Il. JEFF Boyer,
who has been resident of the county
tor over twenty-five years and known
to everybody in the county. lie has
heretofore represented our county for
three years in the lower branch Of the
Legislature. Hiscxporiencc and ability
fully qualities him to be the successor
of Senator Wallace in the State Senate
OF his triumphant election there Is, OF
course, no doubt ri. haal Vf
j. BLAKE WALTERS, of Clcarfcld
borough, is our nominee for County
Treasurer. lie was born in the coun-
ty, and, like his father, is an uncom-
promising Democrat, possesses rare
business qualifications, and will, there
fore, make first-cass officer With
out discounting the qualifications OF
former candidates, we will volunteer
the assertion that the voters of this
county have never had more compe.
tent gentleman presented for their
suffrages for this Office than Mr., Wal
ters, Irs
CLARK BRowN, of Lawrence town
ship, and THOMAS A. MCGEE, of Bell
township, are our nominees for County
Commissioners. Three Commissioners
are to be elected, in accordance with
the new Constitution, but no elector
can vote for more than two candidates
hence, the Democrats can elect but
two, and the Radicals one Mr. Brown
was born in Lancaster county, and re-
moved to this county thirty-six years
ago Mr.. McGee was born in Hunting
don county, and removed TO this coun-
ty with his father IN 1926, when ten
years of age. The former is number
one farmer, and has served in the
capacity of Commissioner the past two
years with entire satisfaction, as the
result Of onr primary election fully
established. His Democracy and his
ability for the position cannot be dis
counted. He belongs TO large Demo
cratic family, and having always been
a good worker in the party, he deserves
this compliment at the hands of his
party friends. Mr., McGec, like his
associate, is also representative of n
large family of Democrats, residing in
the upper end of the county, all of
whom have been active party workers
BY profession he is q miller, but has
been extensively engaged in numbering
and farming. He possesses excellent
business qualifications and his large
experience in all branches of trade will
specially qualify him for the Office his
party friends have rendered him.
For County Auditors, our party
friends have been particularly fortunate
in their selection. CuRisrIAs ].
KEAGY, of Beccarla township, and
SAMUEL A. CALDWELL, Of Bradford
township, will mako excellent officers.
Both have served in the capacity of
Justice of the Peace in their respective
localities, and are good accountants.
They were both born in the county,
and also belong to large families. Their
Democracy is above suspicion, as well
as their knowledge Of books and
accounts.
We know all thesegcntlemcn person
ally, as well as their Radical opponents.
And we know further, that if n Demo
crat Gas they always do) wants to vote
for those who are the most competent
for the positions indicated, he will dis
count his ticket awfully by exchanging
it for the Radical candidates A better
ticket than ours was never offered TO
the voters of Clearfeld county.
