hrondscd triindldate lirid it is with a
view tif pcffb'r'ming this pleasant duty
in this Instance, that we publish the
following" slteteii Of cJitf toWrisniari.
Mr. PassniOfe Is a son of the late
John W. rassmote, BSq., Of Cliester
county, arid Wa3 born on the SOtli day
of June, 1830, fil West Nottirigliaui
township, In that county, Where he
was feared under' tile' strict teachings
of tile Old Qutlkef School. In the
yeai? 1800 Mr. Passniore, desirous of
entering into li more active business
life than the place of his nativity af
forded opportunities for, became a
resident Of our town, where he hits
evef since been pfOhiirieiltly known
in our business, eddCatidiitil, benevo
lent and social entcrp'rise'fl, ad One of
our lettditig citizens. Ytit & period of
several years after coining here, Mr.
PtisKhiore was a teacher of one of our
higher public school and subsequently
conducted an academy for young men,
with niarknd ability' and Success, as
uiafly Of the pi'omirient young busi
ness and professional men here can
testify. Having entered upon a
student's preparatory course for the
study of the law. under the preceptor
ship of Hon. John W. Itoseberry, Mr.
Fnssmore was admitted to the .Schuyl
kill COtirity1 liaf in November, 1865.
After eoirihieiicihg tlie practice of the
lawatoiir Hut, lie was singled outby
the officers of the Metropolitan, and
other Insurance companies, us rt suita
ble person to take charge Of their busi
ness in this community, aiid sometime
thereafter Was promoted to the respon
sible position of Manager and Attor
ney for the Metropolian Life Insur
ance Compntiy for the State of Penn
sylvania, which position he still fills
with credit to himself and his com
pany. Mr. Passmore was one of the few en
terprising citizens of our borough who
founded the Ijliitittrie' institution of
the Benevolent Association of Potts
ville, and has ever since its creation
been one Of its active managers. To
him. probably more than to any other
person, we are in indebted for the de
sign and institution of the Benevolent
Association's llo'nic fof Friendless
Children, tit which he has been the
President since its crt-ation. There
are no public or private institutions in
our cOlnhiunity of Which Our people
are nlore proud tliaii Of these, and it
may be said that through their able
management, these institutions have
beeoriie the most effectual medium
through which to distribute Charities
and provide homes for the friendless,
that have been established in tttiy part
of our Commonwealth. Mr. Pass
more does u6t belo'rig to that class of
men coniniolilv called politicians.
He hits sefved at various tiiites in the
capacity Of School Director, President
of the School Board, and other non
political ideal offlcss, but he has never
been a 'candidate for any political
office, and we doubt not f bfit it is more
to gratify the wishes of his many
friends in this and other communities
than from any private motives that he
would accept th3 position for Which
he is named.
During the active and successful
campaign of our party in this county
in the Fall of l7, Mr. .rasmore was
the Chairman' 6'f the Republican
Standing Coih'hii'ttee, arid probably' at
no time in the history ot our party am
we accomplish ai greater victory In
this county than in that eventful
campaign. Through his popularity
and able administration tho followers
of the' Republican catiso' stood firmly
together, and manfully did their duty,
We theft elected a Congressman, As
sembiymari, P'rofhofiofai-y, Recorder,
Register and Co'm'missioiier, and re
duced a conceded m'ajoTity on the
State ticket of 1-300 irt this1 county, to a
little over 3C0. He Was m'ade the
Chairmau of the County COiilveh'tion
last ye&f', and lias for a rfuhiher of
years past neia a nign position in tne
councils aftmt party.
Mr. rasSinofo' h.ts fn.Mn'y friends in
this co-iiiity, Who Will rejoice at the
nromihetite that sfeems o await him
Certainly nb better choice could bo
made fOr this posltiorl. His character
as a' gentlerttaf, Ms intCgrifv as a man
his Iilgit oraer ot quanncations, most
emifi'entlv befit bim for' this important
and responsible oflioe; and should he
be nomiiiafed hisgenefal acqfiainfance
and friendship With many of the lead
ing citizens of our Commonwealth, as
well as with' tho "masses, Would he
guarantee of an o'vefwlielmirig" ma
jority at the election.- We know that
Mr. rmmo-re bis many friends In this
county Who will Work most assidously
for liM fiOtolnation and electfoit, and
he in so Well atid favorably kWOWu
throitgbout the' State that wfe feel as
sured that so etfolig ten effort made for
so strong a eariditlatf eaitfrWt Ml to
Win.
There is another' Cofisi'deriation that
should engage ttre attention or our lie
publican itfz'etfs throughout the State,
and that hi the fact that our great An-
f linu1t coal rec-ion is not reBresented
iif one of the tlepartmeuts of Statq at
Harrisourg. The good work that has
been done in this section corld be re
warded in no better wat flian confer
