broad daylight by saving of an iron bar in
one of the windows. They made theil
way to an alley back of the Jail and were
seen by several persons running as fast as
they could toward the Philadelphia and

A Card From Representative Fox

desire to say to the democrats Of this
county that during the term | served them
in the legislature | was faithful to the duty
with which they entrusted me, that | voted
upon all bills with the democratic members
OF both houses and that at all times | care
fully considered the interests of those
whom | represented. Those who have ex-
amined my record will bear me out in this
and have found my vote recorded as often
as anyone of the 201 members of the house.
| never shirked any duty and was present
every day when the House was in session. /
am now asking for the second term which
has heretofore been accorded without a
contest. My opponent is now seeking to
break this long established democratic Gus
tom. Ihaye always worked for the inter-
ests of the party in all its contests and have
always stood by its rules aud customs,
assure my fellow democrats that if elected
will labor as faithfully as heretofore for
their interests and with the advantage OF
one terms experience l am prepared and
more able to work effectively for the inIer-
est of the people. JAMES T. Fox.
