Since the organization of Jefferson
county Warsaw township has never
been rtcognlz d by tbe Republican
party In the selection of county officers
and not that It presents a worttb
aspirant for sheriff In the person of
Thomas A. Mayes It would iaem buy
a fair recognition of Its claims If tbe
voters should turn lo a good sized
majority for its candidate. Mayes has
the support of bis borne district and
has found encouragement In all sections
of tbe county.
MAJ BEALE STRONG CANDIDATE
Numb:r of Jefferson County Voters Think
He Should Have Second Term.
In the congressional campaign in this
district It Is pretty generally conceded
that Major Joseph G. Beale, who is now
serving his first term as congressman,
Is the leading candidate for the Repub
lican nomination at the April primary
election. From expressions we hear at
home and reports from various parts of
the district Major Beale will get a farge
vote and will be the winner. And why
not? He is an old soldier, is faithfully
representing this district, is entitled to
a second term according to an old es
tablished custom, and for those reasons
he,ls a strong candidate. Some people,
for whom tbe second term custom has
been a good thing In the past, are now
advocating the aholltion of the rotation
custom because It would keep them too
long away from the "public crib." But
there are many voters In the district
who do not see it that way and will
rally to the support of Major Beale.
Berkhouse Klepfer.
Solomon Berkhouse and Mrs. Cath
erine Klepfer, both of West Reynolds

In local optlou are requested to attend
this meeting, as matters of Importance
will ba considered.
Miners'Convention.
The nineteenth annual convention of
District No. 2, United Mine Workers
of America, Is being held In DuBols
this week. The convention was called
to order at 10 00 a. m. yesterday and
It Is expected that adjournment will
be made Friday noon. A large number
of delegates are present.
Jacobs Withdraws.
Andtew Jacobs, of Gasklll township,
who announced as a candidate for the
Republican nomination for sheriff, has
withdrawn from the race for this cam
paign. Mr. Jacobs received many
promises of -support for which he Is
grateful and In leaving tbe field sug
gests that he may re-appear next cam
paign to ask their aid to the finish.
Rural Route No. 4.
May 1st rural route No. 4 will be es
tablished at the Reynoldsville postoffice.
The distance of the now route Is 23
miles and covers the section of country
by Lud wick's mill, Syphrit corner,
Hemlock school house, Whalen's cor
ner, Bollinger and Jenks school houses,
returning via O'Donnell. The patrons
along this route should have their de
livery box"s up and ready for the carrier
on his first trip.
Refused to Commute Sentence.
An application was made to the
Board.of Pardons for commutation of
the death sontence of Dominic Ra
munno, but the Board refused to com
mute the sentence last week. Ramunno
was found guilty of murder in the first
degree in Jefferson county for killing a
man at Sykesville a couple of years ago,
and was sentenced to be banged. It is
probable the date of execution will soon
be fixed.
Birthday Surprise Party.
LaMarr Ritchie, of Soldier, was given
a birthday surprise party 'ast Friday
evening, March 20th, that being bis
sixteenth birthday. It was so arranged
as to make the party a complete sur
prise for bim. There were about sixty
present from Reyuoidsville, Prescott
vllle, Clarktown and Soldier. He re
ceived a number of beautiful presents
and a purse of money. Light refresh
ments wore served.
Home Candidates.
There are three Republican candi
dates from Reynoldsville for treasurer,
three Democrats for county commis
sioner, one Republican for county com
missioner and one Republican in West
Reynoldsville for sheriff. Candidates
are: Treasurer, W. C. Murray, W.
H. Bell and Grant Scheafnocker;
county ' commissioners, Charles M.
Dinger, E. T. McGaw, M. C. Coleman,
Democrat, Frank McClure, Republican;
for sheriff, Samuel Brillbart.
Remarkable Candidate.
The present year is a record breaker
for numerous candidates in tho pri
mary election . campaign in Pennsyl
vania, but in one respect, at least,
we tblnk JefTereon county takes tbe
lead and that is in having tbe oldest
candidate In tbe field for a county
office. One of our present county com
missioners, John S. Barr, who is a
candidate for re-election, is in bis 84th
year. He Is one of tbe old Republican
war horses in tbe county. During his
political career Mr. Barr has served
one term as sheriff, two terms as
register and recorder, is now "serving
a term as county commissioner, and
thinks he Is young enough and active
enough to serve another term as county
commissioner. It is doubtful If there
is another county in the state that
has a candidate as old as Ex-Sberlff
Barr. ,
