They selected the nominees by direct vote and in that selection have made no mistake. John W. Wetzel, The nominee for Judge is a native of Carlisle and "to the manor born." He was educated for the Law and upon leaving College entered upon the practice of his profession.

His ability and energy Boon gave him a prominent position at the bar, careful and methodical he won the confidence of the people, his practice Increased from year to year and now the firm of Wetzel Hambleton is one of the leading law firms In the Cumberland Yalley. He entered politics and soon became an Important political factor. He was elected District Attorney and served with distinction. He took great interest in the industrial welfare of Carlisle and Ins done much toward promoting the manufacturing and business enterprises of the town. The Beetem Lumber Company, the Merchants National Bank, the South Mountain Land Company, the Carlisle Y.

M. C. the Carlisle Board of Trade, the Union Fire Company, the First Reformed church, all can attest to his enterprise and generosity. When the Judicial contest opened he was from the first considered am. mg the logical candidates for the place and this forecast was verified at the polls.

Although active in politics, he has not been a place hunter, and the only recognition of party service ne lias yet received is one term as District Attorney. In the prime of life, well qualified by training, exper ience, character and ability, the nomi nee or the Deni'icratic party, he is the logical successor of Judge Biddle as President Judge of the Ninth Judicial District. T. Ralph Jacobs, our candidate for District Attorney, Is native of Carlisle, although Silver Spring may well claim him as her own for she reared him. A son of the late Ex-Sheriff JaeoIs, he is a Democrat of the old school and well trained therein.

He is a young man of un impeachable integrity and unquestioned ability and has the honor of having been sought out. He is just Fuch a man as should safeguard the peace of this county and his adminis tration will reflect credit upon his supporters A. J. Beitzel, Unr w.m thi nt. Superintendent for three terms, or nlne ears- of ys antl girls who then received his attention are now men and women and he comes before them as a candidate for the Legislature.

Need we say that he Is well qualified for the place? If there are any per sons in this county who are not fully aware of that fact our telling will not convince them. He has earned the preferment by public and party service and his record will Justify his election. S. M. KlTZMlLLEK, the junior candidate for the Legislature, is one of the active young Demo crats of this county.

He is known as an energetic business man rather than as a politician and by education and training is well qualified to represent this county in the Legislature. A. R. IlEliKRLIO, Among the sturdy citizens of the Cpper End of the county none rank higher than A. R.

Heberlig, our nominee for Director of the Poor. He is a good farmer, the son of a good farmer in estimable citizen and an honest man. lie is the kind or man to guard the interests of the county and protect the poor and his selection will be all the vindication the Almshouse ad ministration S.

Hamilton Robertson Co. For the Beit Photographi all others In price ar quality. Picture frames of all kinds made to order. Crayon l'ortraits specialty. All work A call has been issued for a convention of the Protestant Episcopal church, to be held in Lancaster, Nov.

29. for the organization of the new diocese that was created at the last meeting of the Diocese of Central Pennsylvania. The action of the diocesan convention has just been sanctioned by the general convention of the Church at Boston, and Bishop Talbot has announced his intention of continuing the head of the old diocese, which embraces the archdeaconries of Read-log and Scranton. The new diocese to be organized ill have a communicant membership exceeding 7000, embraced in fifty-five parishes and missions, and in the number of members will be nearly 3000 stronger than as the Diocese of Central Pennsylvania when it was organized thirty-three years ago. The two important matters that will acted upon by the convention will the election of a bishop and the selection of a name for the diocese.

As to the latter it is suggested that the diocese be called either Williams-port or Harrisburg. The latter has the preference, because it is the chief city in the diocese. The counties included in the new diocese are Lancas ter, Dauphin, Cumberland, York, Adams, Franklin, Fulton. Huntingdon, Bedford, Blair, Juniata, Perry, Mifflin, Union, Snyder, Northumberland, Cen tre, Clinton, Montour, Columbia, Ly coming, Sullivan, Potter and Tioga. It is not as likely that a geographical name such as that by which the old diocese was designated will be given the new one, as in case of division often proves to be a misnomer, and action has already been begun to change the name of Central Pennsyl vania, as the designation of the dio cese over which Bishon lalbot will hereafter preside.

The ancient and primitive practice of naming the dio cese after the city is coming more and more into the favor of the American church. As to who the new bishop will be whether some priest of the diocese or one chosen from outside is a matter much uncertainty. Yarious names being canvassed, but sentiment has not as yet crystalized about any one name, and it Is not at all likely that the result of the election will be foreshadowed before the clergy and deputies from the parishes meet together at Lancaster. jum iuddcu a new uarrci or pure Open kettle Orleans Syriip.

She iiad gone with her husband to Chambersburg, when she returned was informed by one of the family that she might find more comfortable in the sitting room.

Upt. opening the door to enter, she was entirely surprised to behold not only many friends and relatives, but the table groaning under a load of the good things of the season eat which the guests had brought with them. After the excitement had subsided all were invited to surround the table; a second invitation was not necessary, after ample justice had been djne, all repaired to the parlor. After some singing and several selec tions on the organ by Miss Elsie Baugeman and others, some one in quired of Mr. Baughman concerning his violin, as the first notes were played some of the guests were filled witli the thoughts of days gone bye and despite the traces of years and the ages of seventy-one and seventy- nve, they glided so gracefully over the door one would have thought they had gone back fifty or sixty years in lire.

Ready made clothing for men, boys and children. A large stock to select from. Hamilton Robertson Co. The Candidate for District Attorney. The good citizens of the county in the present active and spirited contest over the Judgeship, should not forget that other positions on the local ticket are of great moment to them.

Among them the first in importance is that of District Attorney. This office lias charge of the interests of the interests of the county In all criminal cases. These compose much more than one-half of all the active litigation in the courts, and each case is liable to involve the county in a considerable sum of money for costs, in addition to the actual expense of conducting the courts. An honest, active intelligent and faithful officers in the position can serve the interests of the taxpayers materially in addition to securing a prompt, certain and impartial administration of the law. In these particulars, the office is fully as important as the Judgeship, and this snould not be overlooked.

The Dem ocratic nominee is in all respects entitled to the favorable consideration of every voter. He is honest, industrious, faithful and competent. If elected he will fearlessly and vigorously insist on the conviction of every one guilty of crime. He will never encourage prosecutions which are malicious or improper. His administration will vindicate the law, protect citizens from malicious and vexatious prosecutions and the county from unnecessary and extravagant costs.

Furthermore he resides in Carlisle where the District Attorney should make his home, and has never held any office however small. Yote for T. Ralph Jacobs who will appreciate the favor. Clothing of all kinds, ready made and made to order at Hollands. Abraham Bebnck.
