Who DR.. Tuft Is.

Who in the blazes is DR.. Tulta was the
question asked by The C,eH Democrat,
after the doctors nomination for State
Senator. The Democrat knows perfectly
well who DR.. Tuft is. The object in ask
ing the question thus sneeringly was to
create the impression that the Republi-
can convention was so hard run for ma
terial out of which to form ticket that
they were obliged to take obscure per-
sons for candidates. When Il man is a
candidate for an important office it is
really desirable to know who aud what
he is.
Whoever wants to know something
more of DIR. Tuft can be gratifed b.
calling at the War Department at Wash
ingtpn. The records of that office will
show that while his aristocratic opponent
was amassing his fortune, DR.. Tuft was
serving his country i'll the tented field.
sharing the dangers and hardships of
that service.
If further answer is required. go ask
the hundreds of his convalescent patievts
and they will tell You that the Skiiltul
attention of DR.. Tu!t raised them from
the brink Of the grave to life and robust
health.
If you desire information respecting
his personal standing. ask his neiyhbors
of both parties, and they will tell you
that L more generous. kind. sociable,
obliging and courteous neighbor never
lived.
Should Tie Dcmocrat want any other
information he will learn, without in
quiry. ON next Tuesday night, that DR..
Tuft is Senator elect from Cecil county
to the General Assembly of Maryland.
