Vote of Cameron County for
Member of the Legislature.
[Tin; .blowing are tho official re
turns of < 'amerou county elections for
Member of Assembly, since the organ
ization of this county to 1908. It must
be remembered that the district, under
tho old Constitution from 1861 to 1871
watt composed of the counties of Cam
eron, Clinton and McKean. In those
days Clinton was heavily Democratic.
|' f om IST! to 1874 the district was
composed of < ameron, Elk annd Jef
ferson counties. After this date each
couuty was entitled to at least one
Rupre' • tative. The following state
•nsr.t rf thp vote in this county was
prepared by Mr. Wm. H. Howard
some weeks ago but we held back the
publication until this time, on account
of the convening of the legislature next
mont'\ when Hon. Josiah Howard
takes liis seat for a third term, a. com
pliment never before accorded a Rep
resetative from Cameron. We have
always contended that an efficient
Reprt - n' tive should be returned to
t'xe Legislature as often as "no is useful
to his constituents, lion. Josiah How
ard has made a good record and stands
well as one of the leaders of the House
aud is favorably mentioned by gentle
men in all parts of the State, for
Speaker. Little Cameron has, by un
ity, ■-hich is the only sure means of
success, advanced politically, being
recognized as it has never before, both
at Washington and Harrisburg-—Hon.
Clias. F. Barclay entering upon his
second term in Congress and Hon.
Josiah Howard his third term in the
Hons of Representatives at Harris
