OUR LOCAL CANDIDATES.

The voters OF Hunterdon have II
fine opportunity to elevate our county
politics aud advance the best inter
ests of all the people by voting for
Geo. +. Green for Sheriff aud A. q.
Smith for Assembly. On general
principles it il believed by many
thoughtful people that county, state
or nation is best governed when the
great political parties are more evenly
matched The present situation fur
nishes an excellent illustrations; the
democracy having been in power so
long in Hnnterdon seems to think any
sort of nomination will do, and they
give ny the Hotel Keeper for Sheriff
and the Carpet Dagger from Union
Co. for Assembly. On the other hand
the Republicans, realizing that to win
they must present something that APP
peals to the thinking public, nomin-
ate Mr.. Green, who is honored aud
respected by all who know him and
Mr.. Smith, whose daily life here IN
Lambertville has shown him to be
citizen of whom we are justly proud.

The Hunterton County Democrat
in last weeks issue published the
following; I'VE understand that Ar
chic Smith has been resident of this
State about three or four years" The
editor of the Democrat makes wiliul
misstatement, or is entirely ignorant as
to Mr.. Smiths history. AS matter of
fact MIR, Smith has resided in this CO
unity longer than MIR. Matthews. MIR.
Matthews moved here from Union Co
unity five years ago while MIR. Smith
has resided in l.ambertville, continuous

long rs the present editor of the Dem,

DEMOCRATIC ARGUMENT.

And now comes the Hanterdon
County Democrat. with copy Of the
'Beacoa's hippant article relating to
the company with which Archibald q.
Smith, Republican candidate for
Assembly, il connected, aud adds
that the citizens of Lambertville paid
this company to locate with them.
There is nothing discreditable in this
but it il untrue The citizens secur.
cd u loan which the company in turn
secured to them, and have been stead
ily repaving ever since their location
here.
But the Democrat continues by per-
sonal illusions to the editor and pro-
prietor of the RECORD, which are in.
tended to be funny or rude simply be-
cause she is a woman. For its in.
formation the RRcoRp sometimes de.
ponds ON it's political friends for cam
paign articles aud ought to have q
right to depend on it's political enc
mics for courtesy Ut least.

THE RICHEST COUNTY

OS ANGELES county is the rich
est county for its size in the
II United States. The bonded in
debtedness outstanding is s45, 200, and
the apportionment made will retire
$4,000 of these bonds this year. leav-
ing only $4,000. The statement for
warded to the state controller yester-
day completes the final settlement ac-
count of LIS Angeles county with the
state treasury and shows a condi-
ton of financial health which cannot
be matched in the United States. The
prosperity indicated is permanent, nay,
it must increase, for the resources
on which it is founded are constantly
receiving additions-developme are
constantly being made.
The splendid financial condition of
Los Angeles county is the best pos
sible advertisement of this section of
the country, and will aid greatly the
work of cha bers of commerce and
other agencies which employ publicity
in order to boom" California. There
are many cautious business men in
the east, grave and reverend seniors,
to whom rhetorical boosting does not
appeal. They affect to disbelieve and
possibly some do disbelieve the oft
told stories of CALIFORNIA; superior
advantages as a place of residence.
But plain, blunt statistics will
reach the hearts of those obdurate
citizens. When they realize that Los
Angeles county is for it's size the rich
est in the United States, they will
perhaps be willing to agree it Is the
finest residential county in the United
States, and the conjunction of best
in business resources with best in
natural attractions is indeed rare. Los
Angeles county owes much to natural
resources, but even more to the loyal
citizens who have developed those re-
sources and used the means which
God gave them" for building up a
county which, viewed in a severely
practical way, merely as property"
is the most valuable property Of it's
kind in the United States.
