The only objection urged against
Deininger is that he was not born in
this county. In this respect his
competitor has no advantage over
him. If Boss Scouten and his ad-
herents attach any cOr@"nuence to
home record in Sullivan county we
have them on our ticket.
JOHN ID. REEsER, was the son of
Amos Reeser, who was the son of
John Reeser who was born in Berks
county, Pa, in 1880.
John Rpeser came into what is
now Sullivan county in 1871 and
located on the farm long known as
the Ellis Place. His son Amos
Reescr was born on that farm in
1922. His wife, tebecca Dietfen-
bach was born in Columbia county in
1926, and came with her fathers
family to this county in 1929.
John ID. Reeser therefore on his
paternal and maternal line is Penn
sylvanian of a hundred years stand
ing, and Il Sullivan County-ite in
the third generation.
Now, Boss Scouten, if you attach
any consequence to long residence
in Sullivan county, here is he man
for you to support. He is a Sulli-
van county man; but that is not all,
he is an honest, intelligent, Obliging
and trustworthy man. Upon the
bench he would do honor to the
place. Vote for him.
And Boss Scouten here is another
Sullivan county candidate from way
back.
NELSON Cox was born in Sullivan
county. His father came from an
old Pennsylvania family of German
decent, and was born in MontOur
county in 1926; he came to Sullivan
county forty years ago. Nelson Cox
is admirably qualified for the office
of Sheriff. Vote for Nelson Cox
But, Boss Scouten, with the can
didates for PrOthOnOtary you seem
to be in Il fix. Unfortunately they
were not born in Sullivan county.
According to your insinuation Ken
nedy, if elected, is to give the print
ing to Wing, and that would be
dreadful. Deininger, you aver,
would do the same. Trot out a
mother candidate.

"Editor Wing strikes us the hard
est blow of the season in his attempt
to compare his character smasher
with our newspaper. '-Scouten's
Herald.
The less the editor of the Herald
says about character smasher" the
better for him. The evidence in his
criminal libel suit disclOses the fact
that on the 8 of May 1898, in speak
ing of Judge Conrad kraus, he said,
'sthat in the near future he expected
to start newspaper and he would
ruin the son of bitch, if it cost half
that he was worth" And further
he said, speaking of Judge Kraus,
"that he would law him to hell and
back; that he had dollars where
Kraus had cents and he would have
revenge on HIM" AS soon as the
Herald was fairly established it as
sailed the character of Judge Kraus
i'm such vile manner that he had to
resort to the Court for protection;
and two Sullivan county juries have
found the editor guilty of malicious
libel. The term "character smash
err hits him exactly.

In MEMORIAM.

Ethlin NJ. Mason, daughter of
William A. and Mary A. Mason,
died Friday, Oct. 18th. She was
born at MOnroeton, November 18th,
1912, and came with her fatner's
family to Laporte in 1s4s, where she
has resided since that time. Be
tween these two dates is the record
of beautiful life, but without any
of those striking incidents which.
give point to biography.
We believe it may be truly said
that the most Christ-like life that
can be lived is life devoted to the
welfare of others, and such life
Ethlin Mason lived. She took no
thought of herself; she never weari-
of doing for others.
She was endowed with an unus-
ually bright mind which was well
cultivated by study and reading.
She taught school with success for
number of years until her physical
strength proved unequal to the task.
After that the was appointed Post
Mistress at Laporte, and conducted
the business of the Office with entire
satisfaction to the people and the
Post Office Department. Since then,
residing with her mother and broth
er, she has given tender care to her
brothers. motherless children, and to
her mother in times of serious illness.
She had cheerful disposition which
made home happy, and in time of
trouble or danger had an unfaltel-
ing courage. Her good works were
done so unassumingly that few no.
ted them. All of her acquaintance
however, recognized her sterling
worth and held her in the highest
respect and esteem. She had no en-
imies, and her loss is deplored by
the whole community.
1t may be said in Whittier's words:
"Another hand is beckoning us:
Another call is given;
And slows once more with angel steps
The path that reaches Heaven.
Our gentle friend whose pleasant smile
Made brighter summer hours,
Amid the irosts of autumn time
Has lett us with the flowers.
Fold her, o Father in thine arms.
And let her henceiorth be
A messenger of love between
Our human hearts and thee.
Still let her mild rebuking stand
Between us and the wrong,
And her dear memory serve TO make
Our faith in goodness strong"

DEAIh OE ETHLlN M. MASON.

This community was exceedingly
shocked Friday of last week over
the sorrOwful announcement of the
death of Miss Ethlin NJ. Mason which
occurred at the home of Mrs. Phylin-
dia Mason in Towanda, Friday after
noon, after an illness of several
months.
Miss Mason was taken to TOwanda
early i'm September in the hope that
change of climate would be of
benefit to her recovery. She was
attend by the best medical skill that
could be procured, IA specialist from
New York being among the advisors,
but all was of no avail. Her body
was brought to Laporte Saturday
morning.
The beautiful burial service of the
Universalist Church was conducted
by Rev. Graves of Towanda, at the
Laporte Baptist church, Monday at
two O'Clock, where hundreds of her
friends assembled to take last look
upon all that wac mortal of endear-
ed friend when in life. She was
then tenderly borne to Mt. Ash Gem
etery.
Among the out of town relatives
who attended the funeral were Miss
Helen Mason and Mrs. Mrs. Wat
kins; of Towanda, Miss Dimmick OF
