The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1879-10-10

THE general terms III which we have /
heretofore referred to our county ticket /
and its claims to popular support at the |
ensuing election shall now to some eX- !
tent be particularized. The moment is
an opportune one, for on Tuesday of
next week, unless all political signs fail,
we viii achieve a victory in Ohio OF
stupendous proportions.
The names of the several nominees on
the ticket fly from our masthead, and
leading them is that of MICHAEL J.
NAGLE. our candidate for the important
Office of Sheriff. Following the two
sessions of the convention which nOmi-
mated him. some dissatisfaction was
felt and expressed, it may have been
not mnaturalIy. as to the exact regu-
laity of the mode bywhich Mr.. Nagle
attained the foremost rank. Men may
agree as to the result sought for, and
yet honestly differ with regard to how
that result can be best arrived at. But
all doubts on this subject were happily
dispelled by the voluntary withdrawal
of NIr. p. f. Kirby from the lists. In
his card of declinatiOn, Mr.. Kirby,
amongst other things, said: ''With the
party united, the county will give
largely increased Democratic majority"
Our party is. we trust, united now as
thoroughly we are sure as it was lament
! ably divided a short time ago and Mr..
/ Nagle is the man around whom we must
/ rally and to whom must be rendered the
full strength of the Democratic vote in
/ November. The present and prospective
/ interests of the party in this county de-
mand this much from every man who
I wishes for its success. And is not Mr..
Nagle, Of himself, and independent of
T all other considerations, worthy the
| support of every man protesting to be
a Democrat lie has lived in Cambria
county the greater portion of lifetime
and no word of disparagement has ever
been uttered against his character as a
man and a citizen. He has ever and
ALWAYS been "a modest UnassUming gen
tleman and Iatterly, as a tale told in
our local columns to-day Will show,
an unfortunate one though no fault of
his own. Sean his record and tell us
if he does not deserve your earnest and
enthusiastic support at the coming cleo
ton ?
The Office of Poor Director is one in
which all taxpayers have an interest.
and hence the Importance of having a
man in that position who viii do justice
alike to the unfortunate poor and the tax
paving people who foot the bills Such
a man is JOIN RORABAUGH, Of Croyle
township, who viii be elected by a ma
ioritv that has seldom if ever been sur
passed in the county.
BY the nature Of the law as it stands,
JOHN J. HoRNICK, of Bichland town
ship. must be chosen one of the two jury
Commissioners. He fills the good old
JefTersonian idea. lie is honest and he
is competent
HENRY SCANLAN, of CaTrolltown,
has already given the fullest proof that
in his hands the interest of the import
