Mr. Mathues has always taken an active interest in public affairs. He served in the capacity of deputy sheriff for two years from January, 1885, and then became deputy prothonotary of Delaware county, which position he held until 1892. In November, 1891, he was elected to the office of prothono tary and clerk of the courts of Delaware county and took the oath of office to that position in the following January. He gave eminent satisfaction in the discharge of his official duties, i>o much so that he was repeatedly urged to continue in office, and in March last he received a unanimous nomination to succeed himself for a fifth term. Meanwhile a movement was varted among Republicans of Delaware rid neighboring counties in favor of his nomination for state treasurer. I'he suggestion of Mr. Mathues for this honor was very favorably received throughout the state, and in a short time he was admittedly the popular choice in the party organization, and his nomination by the Republican state convention by a unanimous vote followed. Mr. Mathues is the acknowledged leader of the Republicans of Delaware c mnty. He has labored intelligently and unceasingly in behalf of the Re publican party and in the support of its principles, and to him must be given mach of the credit for the har monious conditions w-hich exist among the Republicans of Delaware oounty. He has been chairman of the Delaware county executive committee for the last six years and has represented his party in numerous conventions. He has a large personal acquaint anceship in social and business circles, besides through his political affilia tions. He is a member of the Sons of Veterans, Junior Order of the United .imejiioftn Mechanics, the orders of the ftlks and the Eagles, the K. of M., the I 0. R. M.and other social and bene ficial organisations. SENATOR SNYDER'S CAREER. William Preston Snyder, the nom inee for auditor general, was born in East Vincent township, Chester coun ry. Pa., October 7, 1851, which county he HI now representing in the stata senate for the third consecutive term. WILLIAM P. SNYDER, Candidate for Auditor General. His early education was received in the public schools, in the place of his birth, and farm work occupied hi; time, when not engAftetl in fortifying himself with intellectual training Later in life he attended the Miller' ville state normal school and Ursinus College, both well-known Pennsylvania institutions. During the winter of 'GB and 'G9 he taught school. After a course of study he was graduated as physician in March, 1875, from the medical depart ment of the University of Pennsylva nia. He returned to Chester county, Spring City, where he now resides, and began the practice of medicine, and continued as practitioner until 1886, when he accepted a position as medical examiner for the relief depart ment of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, which position he held for nearly two years, from February, 188f>. He served as postmaster of Spring City from October, 1883, until August, 1885. Senator Snyder has always taken a lively interest in politics, and has been an active worker in all of the campaigns of his party. In 1887 he was nominated for prothonotary of his county and was elected by a large ma jority, and served in that office until January, 1891. The year preceding his relinquishment of the office he was made chairman of the county Repub lican committee. At the county pri maries in the fall of 1890, while serv ing as prothonotary, he was nominated for member of the house and was elected. He was a delegate from Ches ter to the Republican state gubernato rial convention in 1878 and to the state convention that nominated Gen oral James A. Beaver for governor in 1882. In 1892 Mr. Snyder was elected to the senate. In the session of 1895 he was chairman of the committee on health sanitation, and in 1897 chair man of the committee on railroads. In 1896 he was re-elected to the senate by nearly 8000 majority, having re ceived nearly twice as many votes as his Democratic and Prohibition oppo nents combined. At the opening of the session of 1899 he was elected president pro tem., and filled the position with dignity, credit and acceptability, as he did in 1901. During the campaign of 1900 a-deter mined effort was made by the demo crats and Independents to defeat Mr. Snyder for election to a third term, but he won by a plurality of over 1700. WORKED FOR THE FARMERS. No more popular man sat in the chair of president pro tem. of the state senate, a fact which was attested by his second election as presiding offi cer. a distinction rarely accorded to a senator. At the session oi 1903 he was chairman of the committee of appropria tions. During his legislative career Mr. Snyder was conspicuous as a cham pion of the intere'sts of the farmers of Pennsylvania. He was an ardent, con sistent and determined advocate of legislation to protect the pure butter interests. He stood like a stone wall against the efforts of the oleomarga rine trust, and was largely responsible for the passage of laws advocated by the butter and dairy men. Were it not for the efforts of men like Senator Snyder, the farmers of Pennsylvania would today be at the mercy of the oleomargarine trust. Ct'SQCEHANNAA NEW YOKK RAILROAD.
