his age.
Ia Memoriah.
Major James K. Robison, whose sudden
death, on Thursday, August 24'b, at the Uni
ted States Hotel, Atlantic city, shocked our
commuuity. was for many years an esteemed
citizen of this county, but (or the last fifteen
years baa been engaged in business in and
iround Philadelphia. Shortly after the war
of the rebellion broke out, Major Robison
returned to this county and assisted his
brother. Col J. K. Robison, 13 raise a com
pany of cavalry, with which be went to Jlar
risburg. and on tbe organization of the Six
teenth Pa. Cavalry, to wbieh said coTtpny
was attached, he was appointed to tbe Quar
termastership of tba regiment, with the
rank of Lieutenant. This position he filled
with credit to himself and perfect satisfac
tion to the regiment for abont a year, when
be was promoted to the Brigade Quarer
mastership. with tbe rank o( Captain. After
remaining in this office for a short time be
waa promoted 'o the office of Division Quar
termaster, with- a position n the staff of
Maj. Gea. J M. Gregg, which be held until
Gen. Sheridan assumed immediate' command
of all the cavalry forces of the Army of the
Potomac in the spring of 1865. That officer
tendered him a position on bis staff as Corps
Quartermaster, with the rank of Major,
which office he occupied until the close of the
War.
In all tbe various positions that be occu
pied in the army during the three years he
was In service, he performed his whole duty :
was respected and loved by his inferiors, and
always sustained and endorsed by his superi
ors. ' As a man and a citizen, while a resident
of this county, as well as after bis Temoval
to Philadelphia, Major Robison endeared
himself to every one with whoa ha earae in
contact, by the snavity of his manners, bis
high toned pnneipla and general courtesy or
deportment. He was a man whom to know
was to love and respect, and he has left de

j Malcrria r The lima is imr.'it ha
hand
when the people of tbia county will bare to
select candidates for the Tarioas sfiaea to be
filed at the October election ; 4 while it ia
highly important that good men shoald be
ebosen for ,f very position, we, ia common
with tha voter of Cmabclaad and Perry
cmntiea, have one office to CS eT more than
ordinary importance I mean Hat of Presi
dent Judge, an ofEca We are aajfed upon to
fill only one in ten years, and which, from
its very nature; requires thai ae one woo
does not possess tha neceaasry qualifications
saould be seleoted to fill. Tbe candidate
should be a man of sonnd legal learning,
strong mind, good judgment, unbeAding in
tegrity, industrious habits, and oae who can
control his temper, be firm and ent'ti-iy free
from all political bias, and Who would jeal
ously guard Ihe interests of the people in tbe
administration of justice. I know of no one
in the District who possesses these qualities
in a more eminent degree than the Hon. B.
F. Jiimeix, of Bloomfield, Perry county.
Ma. J u skis is well and favorably known in
this county, and, co-ild he b prevailed upon
to permit his name to be used as a candidate,
his nomination would be gratifying to almost
every Republican in this county. Cumber
land county baa bad tbe candidate ever since
Ihe formation of tbe District, and it would
hardly be just or fair for them to claim it
again at this time. POPULVS.
ASSOCIATE JUDGE.
The office of Associate Judge, though not
lucrative is one of the most important in the
county. We Lave frequently beard tbe name
of Dr. J. W. Bkalk, of the borough of Per-
rysville, mentioned as a suitable candidate
for this position. He is popular, able and of
