With this issue, the REPUBLICAN enters upon its thirteenth year of existence and are pleased to say that the REPUBLICAN never enjoyed better prosperity than at the pres ent time. We took charge of the REPUBLICAN when it was only an infant—one year old, and have made it what it is, by hard work and a struggle against the most adverse circumstances to establish and main tain a Republican paper in Sullivan county. Our list is most satisfac tory and we are constantly adding to the same. It is a rare occurrence to have an old subscriber quit the REPUBLICAN, They take our paper because they like it, and once in the family assures us that it is there to stay. The REPUBLICAN is read with keen interest in every section of the county. One reason for this is be- cause wc advocate our principles. "We never shirk otir duty in this respect and sometimes we think we go too far. But how can we help it? "I am a Republican." But not withstanding this, we vote for whom we consider the best men for county otlioes. This we think is right and proper for every voter to do. For instance, if the Republican party had a majority in Sullivan county there would be a stampede for county offices and in many instances the best man would not get the nomi nation, owing perhaps to money be ing used at the piimary elections and by other unfair means. This i.eing the case the editor of this paper would not give him bis sup port on election day, hence we would think it just and right to defeat him at the polls. We must all admit that there is too much of this sort of politics being used with the party in the majority. 'Tw&s so in Brad ford county a few years ago when the "Fusion Ticket" was placed in the field there. The result was— the Republicans were snowed under. No good tax payer will stand by a boughten nomination. When a candidate is the choice of his party money is needless. While on the other hand the minority party must select and use much persuasion to get the best men on their ticket. For with poor candidates they would stand no show whatever of success. The time is ripe for tax payers to give this question a thought and we sincerely request and urge that our five thousand readers look upon the question in a business light. When you employ men to work for you, you prefere the best workers and those who will take an interest in the work you assign them to do. At the election polls you arc giving a man or men employment indirectly. Why not use the same precaution in selecting material? Party principles should not be con sidered when either candidate is better qualified to fill the position Vote for the man whom you consider is the most competent to look after your business and you will have no regrets of your action in the future. These are a few of the facts that the REPUBLICAN has advocated during its thirteen years of existence and they take with the people because thty are reasonable and true in every particular. Our local column* are always fill ed with the news of the week. Like everything else there is a dull season fgr the newspaper and when it goes out at these times to the reading public, it docs not meet their expec tation. This is because nows is scarce and there has been 110 events transpired to make a breezy paper. Wben nn issue of tiiis make up comes to jou, it is evident that all is serene and quietness and happiness reigns. Il i»'nt, pleasing to read of the downfall of a friend, headed "Sensational," nor of a cyclone in your midst. No, dear reader, a quiet paper means a happy family. We give all the news, however, whether much or little and our paper will compare favorably with any country paper in this section. We are told by competent judges that it is the best paper published in the county. As an advertising medium the REPUBLICAN is not to be questioned. We have more than double the cir culation in this part of the county of both the other county papers combined, and our list is clean and "good as gold." This is also true in Fox, Davidson, Shrewsbury and in other precints of the county at a long range. 'Tis true, however, that many of our Republican friends are not as generous to their party paper as would naturally be expected. Just why this exist®, we are unable to say. We notice it more in Elk land township than in any other precinct in the county. We enter no complaint however, but merely ask you in what paper would you tell the story of your good qualities should you aspire to ofiice? The people of Elkland arc not slow in putting in their claim tor office and the REPUBLICAN in the future as in the past will come to tluir assistance; but notwithstanding this, the slight of our paper in their midst is felt by As stated above our subscription list is growing very satisfactory and we Extend our many thanks lo those who have kindly given us their pat ronage and especially to our Demo cratic friends. Financially our paper never paid belter than at the present time and we are proud, as we have a right to be, of our suc cess. We are told that Democratic orators will take the stump in Sulli van county in the interest ot Mr. Buckalew and try and convince the voters of this county how much better it will be for them to work for less wages than they receive in prosperous Republican times, and thereby place themselves on a level with the pauper labor of Europe. Voters don't you let this party fool you. We are living in Democratic times now and we are working for from $G to $lO a month less than we did under Harrison's administration- Look to your own interest first and to the individual office seeker last. We ask you right here—is there a single person working for the suc cess of Mr. Buckalew or the Demo cratic ticket in Sullivan county ex cept ofliee seekers and ofiice holders? Isn't it policy for them to keep the party in the majority that they can gobble the spoils? Consider this question, and we are sure that you n'ill vote for your own interest and it wont be for Mr. Buckalew, either. 11ET11EL ITEMS. Mr 9.
