The Dates for the Primaries
Drawing Near.
LESS THAN A MONTH LEFT
The Committees Must Get Together and
FiI the Time for Holding the Pri-
marieS and Many other Things Must be
Done Withiu -Four Weeks.

The day for the spring elections for 1894
will be the third Tuesday OF February
which is the Goth OF the MONTH and under
the present system Of making nominations
the time is drawing near when the party
organizations will have to take up the
question.
The amended ballot law of 1898 requires
that all nominations by certificates of party
organizations for township aud borough
offices, and School Directors in the same,
shall be filed with the County Commissioners
at least eighteen days before the election,
and nominations for same offices by nomina.
tion papers at least fifteen days before it,
1t will be seen by computation that the
certificates of nomination must be filed by the
first Of February and that, therefore, less
than month is left for the respective parties
to get their committees together, make their
nominations, prepare the certificates and have
them filed as required
The committees should be at work now and
they should hold their meetings to draw the
plans of the campaign this week, or the first
part of next week at the latest Many
people are allowing themselves to be guided
by the date of the election and are not
considering the eighteen days which must
elapse between that date and the completion
Of the work for the campaign.
Meanwhile if there any citizens who in
tend running for office, they should hustle
and let the people know they are candidates
The best way to do that is by putting an an.
nouncement in cold, bold type in the news
papers.

THE sUROHARa1Nn

Reckless Expenditures Charged by the
County Auditors.
The report that County Auditors Allen
Wachter and Moran had surcharged County
Commissioners Bowes DeTurk and Reed
with Sl,iOO, and Poor Commissioners Tracey
and Bergan with S2259O, is confirmed by the
Prothonotary.
Among the items surcharged are four
aggregating $500 paid to William wilhelm.
Esq, for professional services to the County
commissioners in supervising the triennial
assessment last year The grounds for the
surcharge are that the Commissioners are
bound personally to supervise the triennial
assessments, and to hear appeals from the

There can be no doubt of the success Of
