August 18 33 7t* HE many friends of ANDREW .J. HOFFMAN, of Bethesda township, respectfully announce him as a candidate for nomination tc the office of COUNTY COMMISSIONER, subject to the result of the Democratic primary election. Mr. HOFFMAN has had thirty vears1 practical experience in trestle and bridge huildmg, and with him on the Board, the Commissioners could not be imposed upon by contractors. Besides. Mr. HOFFMAN is a man of intelligence ana firmness, and if elected will watch over the interests of thepeople with a jealous eye, August 25 34 5t* To the Voters of York County: The office ol COUNTY COMMISSIONER is justly regarded as one of the most responsible positions of public trust in the county. The importance of the position is properly estimated by our State Judiciary, who seldom, in charging grand juries, omit to remind them, as also the Commissioners themselves, of the importance or the omce, ana the power in their hands for the weal or the woe of the people whom they serve. Recognizing this fact, and without depreciating the claims of any one of the worthy citizens now before the voters of York for their suffrages foi the office, we respectfully beg to nominate foi re-election the present Clerk of the Board, Dr, JAMES B. ALLISON. It was the intention of Dr. Allison not to be s candidate for re-election; ^ut citizens who wert anxious for him to continue in the position have urged him to reconsider his determination and in accordance with their wishes, he has consented for his name to be announced as a candidate, provided that he shall not be subjected tc the expense and labor of making a canvass 01 the county. And in proposing his name for reelection, we feel that with his past public services before the people, a canvass by nim at this time would be entirely unnecessary?in the sense that an office-seeking canvass is usuallj made?for the purpose of becoming acquainted with the people ana soliciting their votes on corn dition of rendering faithful and efficient service While he has held the office sufficiently long t( have become known by the people of every section of the county, his past record is suffieien guarantee of a faithful discharge of his duties ir the future. But while his efficiency must be admitted bj all, there are other and* no less important con siderations for recommending him for the office a principal one of which is bis place of resident being at the Court House. The convenience o having at least one member of the Board resi dent at the Court House, where he may be seei and consulted, or records of the office examinee at any time, has been demonstrated on numer ous occasions since Dr. Allison has been a mem ber of the Board; and as regular meetings of thi Board are not held oftoner than twice a month the convenience of having a member accessibh in the office at all times, is one of great conse quence to the people, requiring no elaboratioi within the limits of an advertisement. Whil Dr. Allison has always been accessible, excep when out of town 011 official business, he is als< courteous and accommodating in serving th< public, whether called upon at any unusual time or tturinga regular meeting of the Board. His familiarity with all the routine duties o the office is also worthy of consideration. Witl an experience of five years or more, he is no only familiar with all the duties pertaining b the clerical conduct of the Commissioners' office but he has also practically acquired that knowl edge of a Commissioner's duties as to readil; comprehend the details of any subject presents for county legislation, or to promptly act upoi any emergencv that may arise. With these facts presented, and in thus recom mending Dr. Allison for re-election, we trus that he will be one to receive a nomination ii the approaching primary election. Many Votkrs.
