THE BASE INsINUATIONs OF HIS POLITICAL
ENEMIES MET AND REFUTED.
II tls - of Can.bria Co,lntv:

To the Voters Of Cambria County:
FELLOW CITIzENs-Born and reared in
Cambria county--owing all that I have or
am to her people, dare not pass by the
ISLANDERS that have been uttered against me
since my nomination for County Treasurer.
Weeks and even months were permitted TO
pass after nv nomination before / heard
aught alleged against me except tha. ! have
always voted the Democratic ticket. True,
| was told that / hadn't money enough to sue
eeed against Mr. Barker. but did not think
poverty an objection to a candidate, provided
he was "houest and capable" But now, at
this late hour, when almost too late to ex-
plain or contradict, find that | am charged
in the ,JohnStown Tribune with that which
calls for IN immediate and UnequlYOcai Te-
ply. / owe it to the people Of Cambria coun-
tV, who so long have trusted in my integrity,
to vindicate my good name Poor in this
worlds goods ! have little to leave but my
good name, and [ desire to leave that to my
children untarniShed.
/ was elected Commissioner in 1867 A
majority of the Board were from the country,
as | was and as they were allowed neither
mileage. nor expenses, while their time IN
many inStaces was precious. they were OFTEN
in the habit Of working until ten O'Clock at
night When this occurred they charged an
additional half day. This practice, which
existed long before Mr.. Barker came to this
State, was well known to the people, and ]
followed the same rule as the Commissioners
had always done before me. II ] was dis
honest in this every Commissioner who pre-
ceded as well a those who served with me
were dishonest. Ny last year was during
the building of the new Jail, when almost
constant attendance night and day was alb
sOlutely imperative.
II regard to the military fund | did pre-
cisely what Mr.. Cooper, Mr. Lloyd and every
other Commissioner had, done before my time
They made the military fund pay its own eX-
penseS. and refused to charge the county
fund with it. They showan order in my IA
vOr for 500 and take pride in hauling citizens
to the office to see IL. They fail to show,
hOwevt r that it was the practice of the Of
fee, and that every Commissioner and Clerk
accepted it as did. It was received by them
and by me for honest services honestly per-
formed In truth the law was bad one,
imposing as it did much labor and little rev.
enue aud the Legislature of 1872 3 did a
commendable act when it repealed H. 1t is
now a thing Of the past.
The effort to connect me with the late \
!. FTeidhOff is still more untrue. ! never
was his deputy or clerk for one hour in my
life. As Clerk to the Commissioners IL was
none of my business to be present st the
Tveasurer's settlements, and I never was un-
less called there or Incidentally At the last
FredhOfT settlement / was not present at all
In conclusion, | can safely say before God
that | never received one dollar of cOmpen
satiOn from the county but what ] then be
Iievsd and now believe was honestly earned.
