C. Wesley Landis, of Brothersvalley
township, is a candidate of the Demo-
crats and Prohibitionists for the oflice |
of Poor Director. He is sober, straight-
forward and unassuming, and stands
high in the community as a neighbor
and a citizen. le is just such a man
as will discharge his duties with fidel-
ity, honesty and fairness if elected to
the oflice of Poor llouse Director. The
Record can endorse the following taken
from the Somerset Democrat of this
week :
It has been charged that there has
been mismafiagement in affairs per-
taining to the county home. For that
reason, if no other, the politieal parties
of this county should have nominated
men of integrity, morality and intelli-
gence for that oflice. If the service
of intelligent, polite, christian gentle-
men are needed anywhere, they are
needed in and about the institution
where widows, orphans, and the aged
unfortunate are cared for. The people
of Nomerset county demand and are
determined to have men who are quali-
fied for this place.
“The Republican party has given its
answer to the people of Somerset coun-
ty in the nomination of Sam
for this office. 1lis fitness for this place
can be attested by those who know him
best. The
