The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1889-11-01

and as this Is the last paper that will
be issued from this office until after
that time it is fitting that we say a word
to urge the Democracy OF Cambria, to
again march to the polls and elect the
whole county ticket. Every man on
the ticket is q worthy and consistent
Democrat deserving your support. If
you or any OF your Democratic friends
were the Democratic nominee for any
office each and every one of them would
be found. ever ready TO give you their
assistance and lend you their help. On
the other hand the Republican ringsters
who aIe travelling around over the
county inviting Democrats to scratch
their ticket and vote Cor some ono Of
their candidates are the same old gang
that has been following the same busi-
ness for years, not one OF whom would
vote for a Democrat for any Office
They would not vote for you il you
were a candidate much as they now pro-
fess TO love you, nor would they vote
for your Democratic neighbour. Their
interest in your welfare will cease after
you cast your vote and their political
friendship be dormant until this time
next year when the same squad will
again be found doing the same work.
Give them the cold shoulder and vote
the whole ticket without a scratch.
Sparn their offers to trade for in that
kind of juggling lies their only hope
and their followers will be found at
every polling place ready to make a
barter. Make every effort to get out
the full Democratic vote in your dis
trict and on Tuesday next victory will
be ours.
Our candidate for Prothonotary,
James G. Darby, is young man o.
good character, sterling integrity and
we'll qualified for the Office to which he
has been nominated. When q boy he
had the misfortune TO lose one of his
arms which disqualifies him for MANY
occupations that a man with two strong
arms can turn to, but he then gave his
attention to educating and fitting him
self for clerical work and after attend
ing the public schools completed his ed
ucation at 81. Francis College, Loretto.
He was a candidate three years ago
for nomination to the same Office and
although defeated by a small N ajority
the flattering vote that he then received
was good evidence OF the estimation
with which he is regarded by the Democ.
racy OF Cambria. Defeated. he turned in
Gor his successful competitor
and the whole ticket and should now
have the support OF every Democrat.
For Register and Recorder. CeIestine
J. Blair, has been re-nominated in &C
cordance with the time honored prece-
dent followed by both parties In this
county, that q worthy officer, one who
has faithfully discharged the duties OF
the ofiice to which he has been elected
should be given a second term. During
the three years that Mr.. Blair has
served the people as Register and Re
corder, he has been faithful in the per,
formsnce Of his duties and kind and
obliging to ell who had business to
with him. He has been a
model officer and de serves the support
not only OF every DSmocrAt, but of
every citizen Interested in having our
public offices filed BY competent and
obliging officials.
For District Attorney, Francis ].
OConnor, talented member OF the Bar
from Johnstown is the nominee, and
should be elected. Mr.. O'Connor Is G
graduate Of the Law Department of
the University OF Michigan and has
been practicing in our courts since 1884.
BY the members of his profession he
is regarded as an able lawyer. with the
ability to represent the interests of the
Commonwealth in the trial Of the i'm
portant cases that must necessarily
come before our courts. lie is
steadfast and tried Democrat, an able
lawyer and an honest man.
The nominee for Poor Director. is
Raphel Hite OF Carroll township, an
honest, upright farmer who is interest
ed in the economical expenditure OF the
peoples taxes and whose generous hu-
nanity would be pledge that our poor
would be literally provided for.
For Coroner, Peter McGough, a we'll
known Democrat and business man of
Portage, has been nominated AMI will
perform the duties of the Office after the
lst Monday in January next to the sat-
sfaction of every one.
For County Surveyor, Henry Sean
an of Csrrolltown. is the nominee and
/ is hardly necessary for Us to add

iil its duties. He is the present in
cumbent, is know ali over the county
ss practical surveror of forty years,
experience and as there is no opposition
he is certain of an election.
Vote the whole ticket and you cannot
make a mistake. The Herald, the Re,
publican organ says their ticket "this
Fall is clean throughout but 20 u can
not rely on it. Ii the Republicans were
in the habit of having clean tickets they
would not be under the necessity of
this as a "cIean one'' and
the very fact that they do so
throws out the suspicion that their
ticket "won's wssh.''
