A meeting of citizens In the ex- I trerae northeastern section ol lands- ? ford township was held Monday at | Itowells In reference to annexing f he section east of Fishing Creek, in u Iandsford, and a small portion of ? llossvllld townships to York county. G Some 75 citizens of that section f were present and while they were fe apparently willing to sign the petl- * ?lon, which requires one-third of the S freehollers to call an election, the X sentiment was divided as to how they E would vote In the matter. A largo | number of them expressed them- f selves as being unwilling to leave 6 Chester county until the proposed * annexation had received further con- fe slderatlon. T Arthur G. Westbrook was chair- fe man of the meeting, and York county * ir'erists were represented by W.

Full Ticket for House. Yorkvllle Enquirer. At last there is out n full ticket for >.he house of representatives?Just four. and without any prejudice against anybody who might want to it nounce between now and the closing of the gates the Yorkvllle Enquirer begs to gay that it Is entirely satisfied with the situation a- it stands. Nlessrg. Pursley and Bradford ' re members of the house and Mr. Mitchell has been a member, lie would have been re-elected two yeuts ago without difficulty: but "to saw proper to step down and submit himself to the draft, which he could V have evaded without any trouble by g merely remaining a member of the 2 house. But he did not choose to do n that, and except for the armistice he ? would soon have been in service. Mr. E Oarothers. besides coming of tho right X kind of parents, has been through two ? years of school that makes good men ? better men. Mr. Pursley is seasoned f> \nd tried, and Mr. Bradford holds Gf rank in the house that is well worth * while to his constituents and county, g Thert are a great many people who f wou'd like to see Mr. Nunn go back AS cither to the house or senate; hut so ? far as the Yorkvllle Enquirer has in- ? formation he has not made up his g mind to re-enter the race. His ? friends are still working oq him. But J anyhow, from the present outlook. * York county will be satisfactorily rep- C resented ?
