THE DEMOCRAT ’ ' On The Result Os .Last Tuesday’s Election. ) * — A BRIEF SKETCH OF ) THE VICTORS. I 1 ' ) The Demooratio Primary Elec i tion in Adams County for the year 1804 is over with and the voters of ’ that persuasion have demonstrated by their votes who of the several ’ candidates should represent the people in the transaction of their busi- , ness with Adams County. i That each and every aspirant to the several offices voted for is a 1 Democrat of the simon pure make- ;* up, needs no introduction on our part. That the voting throughout • the County was conducted in a fair and impartial manner, and by the provisions of the rules as laid down by the committee governing sujh primary elections cannot be gainsaid. ■ • • ' Therefore, since the contest is over with in a primary sense, and the defeated candidates for the various offices are satisfied with the result, it is our duty as Democrat* to prepare ourselves for the general election in November, when the opposition party will confront ua in battle array. ' Time consumed *ln silly personal quarrels by any Democrat should be devoted to something more in keeping with principles of Jag party, and whatever wure Abe existing before the election between be buried,-—if hot. forever, untjl such time when the opportunfay for political knifing is ripe. We herewith give the names of the victors jn last Tuesday’s election with a brief sketch of their make-up: auditor. - ' , ■ W. H. H. France, who succeeds, ■ <’ J. himself as Auditor, is a native of the State of Vermont, where he was born July 29, 1841. He came to Adams County in 1853, and with his parents engaged in farming. He received bis rudimentary education in the early district schools. He was married August 26, 1860, to Miss Almira Matthewson, and to them were born tour children. He served as Constable in St. Mary’s township, and as'. Justice of the Peaqe. In 1883 he -wit appointed Superintendent ofthe Adams County Infirmary for six years, and was elected from that position to<pe Auditotsbip og Adams County in 1891. ’ : ; Mr. France’s seryidgl to the Democratic party has always been Os the mopt liberal and reliable. Not only Can this be said of ( him in a political sense, but also In every oth& sense. Bis many acta of 'friendship are best. kno t wn to those Who have appealed'to him sot as-' To know- Henry France is to admire him; and his friends can be enumerated by the number of his acquaintance. ‘ ; .

We learn that tbe stickers were placed in an Envelope and given to Mri Christen, tbh inspector of the Election Board ia- the 3rd Ward.
