We learn that some republicans in this place announce that they will vote against Mr. WEBB because they are informed that he does not intend to discharge ihe duties of the Register's office himself. Such reports are unfair and no honest man will circulate them. Mr. WEBB has faithfully discharged the du aies of every trust imposed in him by the TOWANDA, PA., MONDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1881. people of this county and will not disappoint them now. He will give his personal atten tion to the office and no one who is obnoxious to the community will be employed to assist him. Mr. WEBB'S fidelity to the interests of this county and his irreproachable life entitle him to fair treatment from all and the united support of*the republican party. It may be of interest to voters tq know the provisions made by the law to till any vacan cies on election boards. If the Judge be dead, absent, or incapaci tated to act, the majority Inspector appoints a Judge. If the majority Inspector is not present, or is incapacitated then the Judge appoints. If the minority inspectorship is vacant, the person who received the second highest vote for Judge takes his place. If there be any vacancy one hour after the hour fixed for the polls to open, the vo ters present are empowered to fill it. We find the following notice of the death of Mr. D. E.
