finances, and the sworn foe of monop
olies, candidate for Governor Of thi,
Commonwealth, is man as eminently
fitted for the position for which he ha.
been nominated as any man in Penn
sylvania. In his hands there will be
no deterioration from the high stand
ard adopted and carried out by oul
present Governor. Let him, as he
deserves, have the full vote of the
party in this county.
Hon. G. w. Stone, our candidate
for Lieutenant Governor, is too well
and avorably known in this section
to need even word from us. That
he is honest, honorable, capable and
deserving, is known to every man who
knows him. The Western part of the
State could be 10 better represented
than by him.
Aaron X. Dunkel, candidate for
Secretary Of Internal Affairs, comes
recommended as a high,mindod, hon.
orable man, in every way qualified for
this Office. In his own part Of the
State be will carry a large number Of
votes outside the party. Wherever he
is known he is respected highly, and
his ability and integrity have never
been questioned.
OF Hon. James P. Storrett, candi-
date for Supreme Judge, we can only
say chat his public record, extending
over long period of years is unspot-
ted and pure, aud his ability second to
mono in the State. Such men as ho
are needed on the Supreme Bench, and
our people honor themselves by honor.
ing such as he with such positions.
Gen. Harry White, candidate for
Congress in this District is deserving
the earnest support Of the whole party.
His record as State Senator, Member
Of the Constitutional Convention, and
Member Of Congress, is without spot
or blemish. The only thing his de-
famers ever urged against him was his
advocacy Of a bill looking toward
opening up water communication with
the seaboard. lie has been ridiculed,
maligned, abused and belied because
OF his success in securing the first steps
looking toward this object. The same
parties who have SO persistently slam
dered him, will be obliged to do him
honor, when it is known that the route
proposed by him has been surveyed
by competent engineers sent out by The
Government, who pronounce it the
most practicable route yet proposed,
and further state that the expense
would be less by millions OF dollars
than that Of the best route heretofore
suggested. II is quite probable that
Gen. Whites plans in this respect will
be carried out, to the immense advan-
tage not only Of his own district, but
Of the State and country at large. Let
no man be tempted by the covert
sncers and SANDERS Of those who have
been unable to use Gen. White for
their own purposes, to vote against
him. He stands high above auy Of
his opponents as regards purity, integ-
rety, ability and statesmansbip. Let
him have our full vote, and as many Of
the opposition as can be persuaded to
vote fora man instead Of a fgure.head
who will bear campaign expenses.
Edward NJ. Grant, our candidate
for State Senator, is brought forward
as representative man. by the oil
region Of Clarion county. That the
oil regions have been baked Of eli.
cient legislation in the past is true +;
that they need it now more than ever,
Is also true; that thoy should have
representation by men who know inti-
matcly, aud feel personally the wants
Of their section ia proper. Mr. Grant
is this man, lie has been selected
by the producers as their fttest repre-
sentative, and he should receive as big
a vote in this county as if we were
now what wo expect in the future to
be-ono Of the leading oil counties Of
tie State.
