HON. HENRY 1. WILSON,
candidate for State Senator. has Another
Say-A Letter which Will be Read
With Pleasure.

To the Republicans of Jefferson Co..
Recent political events in this county
should prove to every person that my
campaign has been one of good faith
and founded upon Independent sincerity.
In spite of the endorsements made by
certain leagues or associations and high
officials, from every quarter have come
to me words of encouragement and con
graduation. Surely no one can now
accuse me of having catered to any par
ticular interests. | have made no
pledges, promises or alliances and it has
met with the approval OF nearly all with
whom 7 have come in contact. For
kmore than three weeks | have been ac-
lively canvassing in Indiana county and
have been most cordially received.
trust the Republicans in my home
county will understand how it happens
that fail to call upon them personally.
iItis my belief that you know me we'll
enough to see to it that l receive fair
treatment at the primaries. To me it
actually. seems as though my contest
for this nomination is distinctively an
appeal for clean politics. Gentlemen,
ALL ask is that you cast your vote in
accordance with your own personal con-
yictions after having investigated for
yourselves. Remember, am not ask
hr your support because have the
dvided support of my home people
we'll as more than half hundred
residents of the home town of my op-
ponents- although, some persons might
say that it was something of a compli-
ment to be held in such esteem by those
who know me best: am not claiming
recognition at this time because am a
son of veteran of the civil war and am
At present a member OF the National
Guard of Pennsylvania and have been
for four years-although, to some
people that would suggest that l was a
friend of the old soldier and was some
what patriotic : am not waging this
contest because Big Run has no other
citizen who ever held a state or county
ofice-ye there are some persons who
are fair enough to admit that Big Runs
claims have been very modest indeed :
l am not in the field because have been
a total abstainer from liquor and to.
bacco all my ife-still there are many
people in this district who are provin-
cial enough to express the opinion that
it does no harm to have man Of good
habits to represent them in the State
Senate: l am not running because l

the study OF Law and became member

early age of twcnty nine-however, it

]. N. Kelly for Commissioner.

j. N. Kelly, one of our present county
commissioners, who is seeking the Re.
publican nomination for second term,
is considered one OF the strongest can
didates in the contest, with Things look
ing very rosy for him being one of the
nominees. The office of county com
missioner is one OF the most important
In the county, and the taxpayer justly
expects an economical administration of
the business OF the county In a manner
similar to that in which the careful and
prudent citizen conducts his business at
home. The present administration in
the commissioners office shows that
Mr.. Kelly is the right man for the
position The recent statement and
auditors report shows that the present
term has been very successful one.
Mr.. Kelly has made good record and
his experience of one term will make
him even more valuable in that office
for a second term. 1t has been the GUS
tom for years to give a worthy and
capable man a second term as county
commissioner, and this fact with his
business qualifications makes Mr.. Kelly
stand in the front ranks among the
candidates for the nomination for COM
missioner.

To the Voters of the 37th Senatorial
District.

With the primary election less than
one week away from US, there remains
but few days of labor and suspense
for those seeking nominations for the
various county and district offices.
This has certainly been strenuous"
campaign on the part OF number
of good men who ask preferment at
the hands of their respective parties.
The contest for Senatorial honors
in the district composed of Indiana
and Jefferson counties has been
earnest and aggressive. with three can
didates viz; Hon. S. Taylor North,
L, M. Kurtz, and Hon. Henry L. Will
sou, of Jefferson county, Indiana county
having presented no candidate.
The observer of unprejudiced and
unclouded judgement can arrive at but
one conclusion as to the situation In
this matter, that is, that the race is
between North and Kurtz, with North
undoubtly in the lead, and gaining
every day so there is little or no doubt
as to his being returned "a winner"
The platform upon which Mr.. Kurtz
is offering himself" is good one, and
is a splendid endorsement of North's
work and record in the legislature, for
every measure to which Mr.. Kuriz
pledges his aid, has been worked for
and advanced by North while a men,
ber OF the lower house. Neither has
Jefferson nor any other county, had
more untiring. able, or aggressive
worker in the Legislature, for the
best interests of his constituents than
North has been, and the important and
numerous committees upon which he
has served, having won this distinction
and recognition by merit, must be con-
vincing evidence to his constituents
that he has been "the right man in
the right place." and that the interests
OF the district will be carefully and in
telligently looked after with North
at the helm.
II there is any one particular class
OF men In the district to whom his
candidacy should appeal, it is that
class whose interests above all, should
be, and is dear to every man worthy
of American citizenship.
"The Old Soldier" no interest for
which just recognition was desired ever
had more faithful advocate than was
North, both in Committee and on the
floor OF the House, to secure that Legis-
lation which would In some measure
at least, be recompense for service
rendered, the value of which cannot
be measured by dollars and cents of
any Government; and it is fair TO
assume that this class OF men In the
district will not forget, or cast aside
a tried and faithful friend whom they
will recognize as one who is especially
equipped to look after their interests in
the Senate. la fact there is no man for
u minute can or will question the
ability of Mr.. North, and all who know
him know that he needs no four men,
nor even four thousand, to vouch for
his integrity. He always fights "out
In the open" as is well-known by all
who know him. He is not the can
didate of any "Star Chamber Caucus"
of bosses, but is a plain, clean, capable
and upright man coming from the
ranks of this class of people, and unless
all signs fail will represent the 37th
Senatorial District in the session OF
1909 1911. CITIZEN.

canvass of the county and his chances
for landing the nomination are excep-

in Jefferson county and he never fails
to leave good Impression wherever he
goes. He has wide acquaintance
throughout the county as result Of his
service as commissioners clerk and
this has been of much help to him in
the present contest. From all sections
comes the word that his candidacy is
being well received. Mr. Galbraith is
one of the loyal young Republicans OF
the county and he is entitled to encour-
agement and support at this time. He
is conducting clean campaign and
comes before the people with record
that is clean, upright and honest
AS commissioners clerk, Mr.. Gal
braith has always been painstaking,
careful, competent and obliging in the
execution of his duties. while socially
he is OF such jolly and genial dispo-
sition that it is but natural for him to
make and keep friends. On preceding
occasions 1t has been customary for the
commissioners clerk to be favored with
election to office, and il faithfulness has
anything to do with it, Mr.. Gabraith is
certainly entitled to support at this
time. The people OF Jefferson county
can elect no more competent and oblig-
ing man to the Office of sheriff, and as
Mr. Gabraith is entitled to due consid-
Grafton at the hands OF the voters of
April 1lth, it is reasonable to expect
that he will poll handsome vote in all
precincts In the county. II nominated
