RECORDER JEHKYIH GOOD RECORD The Republican Candidate Strongly Favored by a Non-Partlsan Citizen, Who Pre sents Strong Arguments For Bis Re-election A Slate Pickers' Advancement. To the Editor of the Hkralu. The political eatnpalgu In Schuylkill county is neurinj a close, and it might be well jmt at tills time fur a citizen who boa the bent Interests of the county at heart, re gardless of party affiliations, to express through the column or your valuable paper few facts regarding a candidate whose record we deem worthy of consideration, Three years ago tho Republican p-uty nominated for the responsible position of Recorder of Deeds a young man from the west end of the county, who was generally supposed to have llttlo or no practical busi ness training, bo having gone to work in tho mines ata very early ago and continued In that occupation till bo was elected Recorder in 1800. During that campaign the friends of his opponent uxil it as nn argument that he lacked a kuowlcdge of business principles, that he bad llttlo executive ability, aud that if he were elected be aud his appointees would bo incompetent to fulfill the duties re quired of them. liut having had occasion to visit the court house frequently during the last nine years and being acquainted with tho management of tho Recorder's olllco during that time, I can truthfully attest that Emanuel Jenkyn has proven himself to be one of the most eUl cient and faithful oflicials this county ever employed. Attentive to duty atall times bim self, he has encouraged a like punctuality among his clerical assistants, thus rendering a prompt and obliging service to all patrons of tho office. In spite of a steadily increas ing business, the force is always up to dato with tho work, makiug it no longer neces sary to watt several weeks for the recording of legal instruments; and from a conversa tion with ono of tho clerks in the Treasurer's otlico I learn that he Is the first Recordor since tho enactment of the salary act whose administration bas earned a halaice over the expenditures of the office, and at present there is n nice balance to his credit in the treasury, which will become a part of the county funds at the end of the present year. Another marked improvement is the system of doing business by mail, through which people living at a distance are treated with the same consideration as those calling In person. The people should justly feci proud that one of their officials has given such satisfaction to the people at large Indeed, lu the absence of his deputy or clerks ho is reedy to perform any duty of tho offico, showing that he has mastered all the details, an unusual accom plishment among our oflicials. While the working class from which ho sprung ought and no doubt do admire bis conduct, I am convinced from the sentiment expressed among the business people that he bas given them entire satisfaction, for which reasons he should be re-elected In November next by the largost majority givon any candidate In late years. Faithful servants deservo to be rewarded. That Is so lu public as in private affairs. No one will deny this. No one cares to lose a good servant, a faithful agent, or trusted em ployee. The wise and prudent employer clings to those in whom ho has confidence, and to those who are conscientiously and faithfully studying the bests interests of the employer, and who are discharging tho duties imposed on them with fidelity, and with promptitude and alacrity. There exists satisfaction within tho mind of the employer when ho Is confident that those in whom he trusts are faithful auu true, ana nence are deserving of that confidence. These state ments are self-evident truths proven by the experiences of ages. Why should the electors of Schuylkill county ignore history? It is important to the common weal that public servants be faithful to their trust, and work with the same zeal and industry that is demanded in private business. The Republican party of this county has given to the county oflicials, now serviug, who measure up to that standard Among them is Emanuel Jenkyn, the Re corder of Deeds, who by reasoa of hlsworthl ness was re-nominated by the Republican delegates, and that party submits his name upoa its ticket for a te-election The following resolutions were unani mously adopted by Anthracite District No. 1. United Mine Workers of America, at the convention held in Pottivllle on September SO, 1895 AVnEREAS.

Mr. Jenkyn has infused business principles in tho important office of the Recorder, Ho Is presout every day during business hours, and requires bis deputy and clerks to do like wise.
