cations and claims of the democratic
township ticket. John Brown, the can.
didate for trustee. is practical man, a
contractor and builder and 2 hardwork-

township and he would be fair and
impartial assessor. Aug. Schmidt, the
candidate for treasurer, is known well
and favorably, to every man in the
township. lie is cool, clear headed
man, who would be an excellent mem
Der of the township board, and the
funds placed in bis hands would be
safely guarded. M. L. Hatciiff, the
candidate for clerk. is an active CITIZEN
hard-woEker, sn honest and upright
citizen. John Dollar and D. +. Paint
er. the candidates for constable, are
two well-known citizens. both old SCI.
diers, deserving Of the confidence of
their cOuntrymen. Township affairs,
in the hands Of these men, will be safe

only slightly bruised. The track was
cleared by 4 A. NJ. and there was no inter-
ruption in either freight or passenger
traffic, beyond the delay caused to the train
which was IN collision. The report that en-
gineer Doherty had been on duty for thirty
hours was altogether untrue. He was called

He referred to the rough sports of the early

He spoke of the fighting mettle of that day,
and of the swaggerer who, at a gathering
of the pioneers, went about saving. Ppm a

As the Governor finished his speech, the
