The Canton Sentinel of last week says that
•' Sheriff HORTON " had been calling around
among his friends in that vicinity. The Sen
tinel 110 doubt refers to Capt. W.T. IIORTON,

unanimously nominated for Sheriff by the
Republicans of Bradford county this fall.
We pedict that if nominated, he will be elect
ed by a larger majority than any candidate
in Bradford has ever had 111 an off year, as it is
termed. Capt. HORTON IS competent for any
position, of the strictest integrity, and one of
the most genial, good naturcd men, with
whom we are acquainted. The Republicans
of Bradford can find no more worthy man
for the position.— DuShore Review.
