On the morning following the Ohio election nothing short of 25,000 majority was good enough for them. Next day they talked about 18000 and 20,000—some of them falling as low as 15,000. To-day they will probably be content with 10,000, and when the official returns are in they will doubtless be willing to roost lower. minimis tts him A more fitting nomination for Associ- ate Judge could not have been made than that of Chester Munson. He is a well-known citizen, of spotless character, of more than ordinary intelligence, and will be impartial in the discharge of his important duties as an Associate Judge. Mr. Munson is an old-line Democrai honest in his political professions and practices, and deserves the vote of every Democrat, Everybody talks of voting for honest Bob Brett for Prothonotary. All who know Mer. Brett speak well of him, and gay they will vote for him irrespective of party. His character is beyond reproach; a8 a Democrat there is none more devot- ed to the party. The Prothonotary should be an obliging man because it is one of those offices with which nearly every citizen has business some time or other, and Robert Brett is just the man to be prompt and gentlemanly where these qualities are so much in demand. Give Bob your most earnest support, no one ever deserved it more from the Democratic party, and we owe it besides to the unflinching Democracy of old Fer. guson, whose favorite R, G, Brett is. “ ¢ , CENT Miles Walker, for Sheriff, will vote of the ticket in Ferguson.

To the Democrats of Centre County : The report circulated that Mr. Rhone had written to me asking my support for the Legislature on the ground that he was as much a Republican as ever, is without truth.

Very respectfully yours, Joux Mussen, THE REPUBLICAN RUM PARTY. [Ohio Letter Philad. Times.) It is curious to see what a slender fig- tire the Prohibition movement has out in this strange overturning of political cals calations. Practically it has not been a noticeable feature of the voting. In near ly all the localities where the liquor ins terests were strong Judge Johuson, the Republican candidate for the Sapreme Court and a Prohibitionist, received the highest vote of any man on Ex-Governor Foster said four | fore the election that this w be the case. He said that the liquor jnterests were more disgusted with the Democrats than with the Republicans upon the tem- perance question, and that before the vote was cast the lignor association pass the word for the forces that rhould reach to voto the Republican et.
