What will their verdict be? All of the

iie men who haw been tried and found
to measure- up to the re(iilieinents of
the oflii'os ila-y so acceptably till. It
would be a nil-taUe mil to (ouiiuue

Judge raipouur diuiiiK the short
time he has been mi the bench hJS
won the confidence and good opinion
of everyone connected in any way with
the com tb of the county. Without dis
paragement to the able men who now
sit with hi in on the bench of till.-: coun
ty, or the distlnBulsheo run -who pro
ceded them. It tan be tiuthfully said
that T.aeUawanna lias never had In its
judiciary a man who was more truly
intended by nature for a judge than J.
"V. Carpenter. Calm, patient ami
learned, with a mind of gteat clearness
and fairness, he is the ideal of what a
man ought to be who Is called by his
fellow men to adjudicate for them lit
matters where their lives, llbeity and
luoperty are at issue.
Kdwatd A. Jones was assigned b.
Governor Stone to the diilieult tabic of
opening the oiilce of controller in this
county. It is an otlleo with many and
complex duties, even after a system
has been adopted, and it has been in
tmiooth working order for years. The
task, then, which confronts a man who
must crcutc the system, open the
books and establish the new relations
with all of the other county olllclals
can be Imagined. Mr, Jones is doing all
this in the most satisfactory manner
without the slightest filctlon or un
)lc.isantne.ss, lie ought in all Justice
,o bo continued In the. olllco for which
he has displayed such fitness. The of.
llco id' controller is one of the most Im
portant In the county. He is the audi
tor of all accounts; the watch-dog of
the treasury, as it were,
Cormier J. J. Huberts Is a skilled
physician and a man who, dining the
last, three years,. has familiarized hini
sclCjwith eveiy detail of the duties per

Tbo olllce of surveyor is one too often
overlooked because of Its supposed un
importance. tJeorgo H, Stevenson, Hip
present Incumbent, is a Cornell man
who has no supeilor as an engineer I"

Lackawanna has a man li cannot af
