We are authorized to place the name
of Cyrus H. Blood, Esq., under the head
of announcements as a candidate for
Prothonotary and Clerk of Courti. It
goes without saying that Mr. Blood has
made a desirable officer, careful, accom
modating and expeditious in the dis
charge of his duties. We lave also
seen It repeatedly stated In various
papers in the county that Mr. Blood Is
likely to be the only candidate for that
office and everywhere one bears the
remark that the possibility of there
being only one candidate is as it should
be. This fact In itself shows the status
of Mr. Blood's standing with the voters
a distinction seldom shown any one
candidate. Punxsutawney 2eies.

record for the office of which the tax
payers of the town feel justly proud and
which is a credit to Mr. Campbell's
careful, painstaking management. He
is a Punxsutawney boy from his baby
hood, and he has the confidence of all
citizens, ' wbiob confidence has grown
into a favorable opinion all over the
county among all who know him. His
frlondsclaim that the prospects for the
nomination are bright, and none will
question his ability to fill the office of
County Treasurer should be be elected.
Having been born and reared here, the
peopk) of Punxsutawney have bad an
opportunity to know Mr. Campbell
well, and their endorsement of him as
