COLLECTOR.
Mr.. NJ. L. Finnell tells you of biz
aspirations to fill the Office of town
ship collector. "Milt" is recognized
as "a born tax gstherer," and when
he fails TO collect a fellows taxes
there is no need OF any one else max
ing an effort. His candidacy is more
of case of "the Office seeking the
man and not the man the Office"
Mr.. Bryant Cash, an energetic
young farmer, also wants to be
township collector, and promises to
make the race an exceedingly inter
esting one for Mr.. Finnell. IL elect
ed, we are confident Mr.. Cash will
strive earnestly to do his whole Oh
fetal duty.
CONSTABLE.
Mr.. +. NJ. Veatch desires to be re-
elected township constable. Judg.
ing the future by the past Mr.. Veatch
has not yet gazed on the color ol
the mans tresses who could beat
him for constable, and this speaks
more for his satisfactory career in
fiilin= that Office than any idle
words oi ours in his behalf.
