The denomination of Sheriff Cram by
reclamation and with an enthusiasm which
is seldom exceeded in a convention is a
merited tribute to an officer who has per-
formed the arduous and perplexing duties
Of his office with 8 fidelity and courage
that have won encoHiums from every
right-thinklng man in the community
whether be is believer in the wisdom of
the prohibitory law or not No higher
honor can be paid to him than lies in the
fact that every violator of law is bitterly
opposed to his reelection. That fact alone
ought 20 assure his reelection by an over
whelmiDg majority. Press
OF course Sheriff Cram was entitled to
be re-nominated and all Republicans of
Cumberland county, should heartily sup
port him whatever their individual opin-
ions may be as to the wisdom of the pro-
hibitory law. Sheriff Cram has simply
done his duty as required by law and his
oath of office. Any officer unwilling to
perform the duties, so required Of him. Is
unworthy of any mans support
