be gala day and that the old town will
be wide awake. The citizens should lend
their aid to this affair. 1t will require

The Fair Opens To-Day.

The Mount Holly fair opens today and
will continue until and including Friday
The indications are that it will be the
most successful fair held here in many
years
The most notable feature will be the
horse racing, the entries for which are
more numerous than ever before in the
history of the society. The list of entries
aggregates about 1875. A double team
race will be one of the attractions.
The exhibits are not only more numer-
GUS than usual but of a higher grade. In
some of the departments it is almost i'm
possible to find space enough for all the
exhibits
The fancy work and other departments
for ladies' work are crowded. There is a
good showing of art, and fruits and
vegetables are above the average.
Some fine utility horses are shown, and
there is creditable exhibit Of other live
stock.
All things considered there is no reason
why this years fair should not have a
large attendance. The exhibits are good,
the horse racing will be above the aver
age, and the vaudeville entertainment in
front of the grand stand will be varied and
interesting

ton recommended continuing the tenn
porary officers, and it was so ordered
The committee on rules reported those
that governed the last convention, and
they were adopted.
The roll was then called for nomina-
tions for Sheriff.
James B. Roney, of Beverly township
was the first speaker. He said he repre-
seated a township that is largely com
posed of Republicans Roosevelt Repub-
licans-and as such always abide by the
voice of the convention. He made refer
ence to the Presidents noble effort to end
the coal strike, and also stated that if the
strike was in Burlington county the
present Sheriff or the one to be elected
would stop rioting and disorder
Mr. Roney said his township had a can
didate to present to the conventions
man well known and highly esteemed If
nominated he will add strength to the
ticket. If defeated he will do his best to
elect the candidate named. He present
ed Charles K Vansciver.
Col. ]. F. Cline, of Burlington, said he
had attended many conventions, and had
heard numerous candidates presented for
nominations. They are usually spoken
of as men so good that they must have
had wings. He desired to present can
didate who has no wings, neither horns
nor tail-just man, but man in every
sense of the word-John j. Norcross

then voiced the sentiments of the people
by saying that it seemed as if everybody
wanted Mr. Horner returned to the Legis
lature, and upon his suggestion a motion
was made and carried that the nomination
of Mr.. Horner be made unanimous.
The voting then began under difficulties
because of the fact that no tally sheets
had been prepared for use at the conven-
ton The vote for the second Assembly
man was interrupted when Pemberton
township was called, by the fact that
Chester East desired to change her vote
from Straw bridge to Shadaker, to whom a
stampede was then made and whose nom
nation was made unanimous.
When Lumberton was called, Walter NJ
Voorhees, placed in nomination the name
of William P YouDker for County Audi
tor. He did not expect him to be nomi
mated, but he hoped the convention would
give him favorable consideration.
Charles Evan Merritt, of Northampton,
said all the delegates present knew
how ably the office of Auditor had
been conducted. "You all know who l
am going to nominate. His name is on
the end of your tongues, and then Mr.
Merritt renominated William W Worrell,
the nomination being warmly and earnest
ham
This time the ballot proceeded without
interruption, which resulted in Worrell
receiving 1903 votes and Younker 43. The
choice of the former was made unanimous.
Nominations for Coroners were then
made, Bass River presenting the name of
Frank Ridgway; Beverly township, II.
B. Earnest; Chester, East, William Grob-
Ter; Pemberton borough, A. M. Heulings.
Grobler and Ridgwsy were nominated,
the result of the ballot being as follows:
Grobler, 1877 Ridgway, 10; Earnest, 80;
Heulings 81.
The report of the committee on resolu
tions was the same as that adopted by the
Sheriff convention.
At this point the candidates were es-
corted to the platform, and the first to be
introduced was Mr. Horner, who express
ed his appreciation of the honor conferred
on him by the convention. He fully re-
allied the Importance of the position In
which he had been placed. If elected,
he will represent this county as well as in
the past and better, if possible. He said

from their midst to take charge of the In.
stitution over which he had so successful
/ ly presided The citizens of Lumberton
were glad to see George F. Harbert made
Steward Of the Almshouse They knew
that he was perfectly qualified for the
very delicate duties required of him. The
position Of Steward is one where man
must have two sides, he must be kind and
gentle, but be must be firm and maintain
the iscipline necessary to run the institu-
ton. After three years of faithful ser
vice, George F. Harbert has shown him
self to be just the man for the position

the kind that is undoubted, Of the untir-
ing nature that always brings success
Senator Parry believed this convention
was about to name Steward Harbert with
out opposition, and he congratulated the
delegates upon the wisdom of their choice.
William D. Haines, Of Southampton,
concurred in the remarks of the former
speaker, and DR. Parry moved that the
rules be suspended and the nomination of
George F. Harbert be made by acclama
ton.
This motion was adopted and the secre-
tary was directed to cast the vote of the
convention. Samuel E. Jones, of Chester
field, and John Barckley of Burlington,
were appointed tellers They announced
that George F. Harbert had received the
unanimous vote of the convention, and
the chairman declared him the nominee.
Theodore B. Gaskill, of Pemberton;
William c. Parry, of Lumberton, and
Winfield S. Gale, of Northampton, were
appointed committee to present Mr.
Harbert to the convention While they
were attending to that duty the committee
on resolutions reported In a manner similar
to the other conventions.
Mr.. Harbert thanked the convention for
the honor conferred upon him. If the
other conventions acted in the harmonious
manner which chacterized this gathering
there would not be any trouble either now
or at the election. Republican success
would be assured beyond doubt
The convention then adjourned.

ton, and the record of the party is wor
thy the support of the whole nation. The
speaker reviewed state and national sf
fairs at some length, presenting figures to
show what the Republican Legislature
had done for education, for the farmer,
for the tuberculosis commission and good
roads. These large appropriations had
been made for the benefit of the people,
while at the same time the state debt had
been paid Liberal appropriations had
been made for things that are proper, and
curtailments made on things that are i'm
proper, and by the practice of economy
