FOR COUNTY TREASURER
JOSEPH A. HELSMAN.

On next Tuesday the voters of
Sullivan County will be called up
on to elect Treasurer for Sulli van
county. For this important Office
Joseph A. Helsman of Bernice is
a candidate. Mr.. Helsman is so
well known throughout the county
by reason of his residence of over
forty years here, that he needs no
introduction to the voters. Pro-
badly half of them know him per-
sonally and to become acquainted
with is to regard him in high es-
TEEN ever afterwards.
"Joe" has never been a candi-
date for a county Office before, but
he has made a thorough, though
quiet canvass. 1t has always been
a gentlemanly canvass. He has
INDUCED in no abuse of other can
didates nor permitted others to do
it i'm his behalf. He has been fair
and corteous to the other candi
dates. This is characteristic of the
man.
All indications point to Mr..
Helsman's election by a large ma
jority. His large acquaintance,
popularity and fitness for the Office
are his great elements of strength,
The people generally recognize in
him man very desirable for the
position and they will rally to his
support next Tuesday, regardless
of political affiliations. If the
funds of Sullivan county are hand
led by Mr.. Helsman during the
next four years, they will be in
safe hands. VOTE FOR HELS-
MAN.

For County Commissioner.

Willis b. Snider of Davidson
township, is the popular Democra-
tic candidate for County Com
missioner. Mr.. Snider has all OF
the qualifications necessary to
enable him to fill the Office with
honor to himself and with benefit
to the County. While he is not a
Republican, we must all acknow-
ledge that he is a gentleman and
a man of ability, then again in
selecting our County officers we
should not lay so much stress upon
the. political party to which a can
didate belongs, but we should ask
ourselves this question 'Is this
man qualified to perform the
duties of said office if elected. y

We are trifle late this week
and this is the reason Our old
gasolene granny, commonly called
an engine, balked on us without
just cause or provocation. We
offered it all kinds of inducements
if it would only run, but the OBJ
stinate old thing just simply re-
fnsed to run until it got good and
ready. We've arrived at the con-
clusion that a gasolene engine is
descended from mule, it having
all of the disagreeable traits, habits
and tricks of said animal, but like
darwin's theory of man there is a
missing link.
