The Caucuses.

The Democratic caucus of Upper PENIS
Neck Township was held in Central
School House last Saturday afternoon.
John M. Bevis was chairman and George
W. Hewitt, Esq, secretary. The ticket
as shown in another column was nomi-
mated without opposition.
The only change in the officials being
the nomination Of Benjamin w. Chess
man to be Township Collector to succeed
Josiah Summerill who has held the office
for 20 years. He was first appointed in
1874 by the Township Committee to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of Ed
win A. Vanneman. He was elected 16
times annually until 1891, when the office
was made a three-year term. Then he
was elected 4 terms, making 20 times be-
fore the people. His removal into the
Borough made a change necessary.
Another new move was the adoption Of
a resolution to put on the ticket that
the township pay the 10 per cent assess
ment put by law on the abutting prop
critics where stone roads are made. Some
of the citizens think it will beneficial to
the township to have a state road from
Penn's Grove Borough to the old mill.
Most the AUDITING farms are owned by
persons living in the Borough and occu-
pied by tenants, hence the move.
The Republicans did not make out a
ticket in the township.
Geo. w. Hewitt was elected executive
committeeman.
THE BOROUGH AUCUS
were held last Saturday night. The
Democrats met in F. r. Hammitt's
w~heelwright shop and were in favor Of a
full ticket as there had been some previ-
Gus talk of a union ticket. Samuel A
Harker was chairman and Frank r.
Hammitt, secretary. The only contest
was the nomination for Mayor. The
names of F. r. Hammitt and Josiah Sum-
merrill were presented but withdrawn.
Nathan S. Wood received the nomina-
ton by 20 votes to 10 for S. A. Harker.
The balance of the ticket was nominated
unanimously as voted for on Tuesday.
The proposition of renumerating Jos.
A. Robbins whose building was torn down
to hinder the spread of fire on October Z,
1901, was presented, the building not
being insured. It was decided to vote for
an appropriation of 5000 for his benefit,
in case the Republicans put it on their
ticket. No candidate was found for Jus.
tice of the Peace.
Job. Beyis was elected executive com.
mittee.
REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.
The Republican caucus was held II
their club ROOM. s. R. Leap was chair
man and J. Harry Smith secretary
There was a spirited contest for the nom
ination for Mayor and Council. Geo. Fl
Elkinton won the nomination by 80 vote

For Council VIM. A. Sack, Jr., received
SO votes, Thos. E. Hunt 80 and Fred Gen
tieu %. Asa G. Turner was named TO

4 Farmers Good Story.

velpen, Ind, April 6th.-Wm. Oh.
Sullivan, a highly respected farmer OF
this place, tells a personal experience
to show that there is still some genu'
ineness and honest worth to be met
with in this age in which SO many
frauds are reported.
"Yes, l have been humbugged," said
Mr.. Sullivan, ".and when | was SO III
with the Rheumatism, Kidney and
Heart Trouble, used good deal OF
stuff that claimed to be remedies for
these diseases only to find them worth
less. ,,.
"But, as you know, l did find the
genuine remedy after all and I had not
been taking Dodds Kidney Pills very
long before | knew that they were an
honest remedy that would do all and
more than was claimed for them. They
cured me, made well man of me and
l am now as sound as ever was.
n can testify that Dodd's Kidney
Pills are a genuine remedy for Rheu'
matlsm and Kidney Trouble"
