CLARENCE Z. PRYOR.

No candidate stands closer to the peo-
pie of the county, IRE spective of party,
than genial Clarence E. Pryor, Republi-
can candidate for prothonotary.
He was born in Hanover township,
Luzerne county, April /, 1S45, Receiv-
ing good common school education he
began life by running a mine engine at
Mauch Chunk, and from IFS savings
had enough money to pay for a course
at Lowelrs Commercial college at Birg-
hamton, N. Y. He graduated in 1864
and came to, Scranton, where he has
since resided, except two years which
he spent at the Wyoming seminary.
In 1888 he was the Republican candi-
date for county treasurer, making a
splendid run, falling short only a few
votes of an election. In 1891 he was the
Republican candidate for prothonotary
and was elected by handsome ma
jority over one of the strongest men
on the Democratic ticket
For three years Mr.. Pryor has occu-
pied the office of prothonotary, and
during that time not word of unfav-
orable criticism has been heard from
any quarter as to his management OF
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-11-02

that important office. His personal
worth and popularity, as well as his ef
flciency as public official, were recog
nized by the Republican party in his
unanimous denomination. No other
Republican appeared to contest the
nomination with him; it was the unani-
nous sentiment of the Republicans
throughout the county that Mr.. Pryor
should have a second term, and that
sentiment will be confirmed by the
people at the ballot box next Tuesday.
Mr.. Pryors record in the Office during
the past three years is every thing that
could be desired That Office has al
ways been carefully and faithfully
filled by Republican officials but never
better than during Mr.. Pryor's admin
istration.
Notwithstanding extraordinary ef-
forts are being made on part of the
Democratic leaders to keep Mr.. Pryor.

TWO POPULAR CANDIDATES
Men Who Are Noted for Generosity
and Good Nature.
SELECTED BY THE PEOPLE
Clarence f. Pryor and John X. Jones, Well
Known Candidates Nominated at the
Republican Convention in Response
to Universal Demand.

The enthusiasm with which the can
didacy of John r. Jones has been re-
ceived by Republican voters generally
about the county is one of the evidences
of his popularity with the people.
John r. Jones was born May 27, 1885,
at Archibald, Pa, and after common
school education at his birthplace, COM
pleted academic studies at the Keystone
Academy, Fastoryville, and Wyoming
Seminary, Kingston. Mr.. Jones began
his law study at Harvard, Sept. 2S, 1877,
and graduated with the degree of LII B.
three years later. In the meanwhile,
and after he had been but two years a
student at the famous university at
Cambridge, on March u, 1873, Mr. Jones
was admitted to practice his chosen
profession at Mddlesex, Mass.
After his graduation Mr.. Jones lost no
time in practicing his chosen profes-
sion near the scenes of his boyhood. He
afterward became associated with the
office of Attorney Alexander Farm
ham at Wilkes-Barre, having mean
time been admitted to practice
in all the Luzerne county courts.
However, Mr. Jones legal talents be-
came best known in Lackawanna
county after he had entered the law
Office of Judge r. w. Archibald, in
Scranton, Oct. s, 1880. He was admitted
to the Lackawanna bar the same day.
He remained with Judge Archibald un-
til that gentleman was elected to the
bench in 1884.
Today Mr.. Jones Is a member of the
supreme court of Pennsylvania, the
United States circuit court, the Penn
sylvania western district court, and
finally the great supreme court of the
United States at the nations capital.
After fighting for five years, both in
the courts of Lackawanna county and
the supreme court at Philadelphia, Mr..
Jones succeeded in abolishing tolls from
the main thoroughfare between Car
bondale and Scranton, known as the
Carbondale and Providence turnpike.
He had all the chains taken down from
the road and it has ever since been free
to the public. For this he received the
gratitude of the travelling public Of
Lackawanna county. He had been
delegate to many conventions and he
has nearly always made nominating
speech. He nominated r. w. Archibald
for judge in 1884, Joseph A. Scranton
for congress in 1885, and Hon. ]. B. Van
Bergen for county treasurer the same
day. He was secretary of the 1884 con-
vention and did assiduous and excellent
service as a member of the Republican
county committee the same year.
Michael Gilroy at the Fourth district
Republican convention, held in Carbon
dale several years ago, was also nomi-
mated by Mr.. Jones.

An important meeting of the Lacka-
wanna county school directors was held
in the Liberty hall yesterday when the

,flcers of the association are r. H.
Holgate, of La Plume. president; H. Il.
Arms, of Spring Brook, vice president;
James ], O'Malley, of Olyphant, secre-
tary.
President Holgate,' in delivering the
annual address, said the object of the

Lackawanna county who took an in
terest in the matter, to discuss ques-
tions relating to the county schools,
keep pace with the other counties of
the state. 80 .5,
A discussion was held on the subject
of Compulsory Education" Henry
Northup, of Glenburn, opened in we'll
delivered address in which he pointed
out the great Improvements of the COM
mon school system. j. L. Stone, of
Waverly, followed, and said that hui
man nature manifested itself In three
ways, physical, intellectual, moral or
religious, and education embraced the
three, hence the Importance Of training
the youths of the country to enable
them to become good citizens. ]. r.
Farr, promoter of the compulsory edu-
cation bill, in closing the discussion,
made splendid speech upon the ques-
tion which was we'll received. He said
that the petitions presented to Cover
