Editor Of DEMoCRAr:-
No doubt this subject has been one OF
more or less serious considerations TO every
thoughtful voter of the county, and will,
because OF the important bearing that
individual votes may have on the result,
continue until election day to be of serion1
import TO the individual interests of every
citizen of Gloucester cnnty. If it is your
earnest desire to have the business of the
Office managed and conducted on strictly
business principles, regardless OF politics,
then throw politics aside, and vote for the
candidate whose character stands above
reproach, whose name was never heard or
mentioned in connection with any unsav0ry
transaction, whose reputation and rugged
honesty is above suspicion, aud who will
give the county clean. straightforward
administration of the Office, without fear
or favor
Joseph Lodge, here in Mantua township,
where we know him best, will get a larger
percentage of the Republican vote than any
man of that party has ever received be
will get by far the largest majority in this
township ever given any candidate Tor any
Office of either party.
IT some of the more distant townships
suuutu uOt Do 80 well hcquatntou Win MT.
Lodge, have no fear whatever about cast
ing your votes for him, if you want the
right man in the right place, for if the
voters OF Mantua township representing all
parties,are glad OF the opportunity to show
our appreciation Of sterling worth and
merit, by using our influence and our
ballots to re-estabIish an important county
Office upon q strict business basis, surely
you can afford to follow the example of the
best thinking men of this township regard
less of party, in voting for the candidate
whose election carries with it full
guarantee of compentency.
Will you do it (? SIP D.
