Joe Cherry,  Aetis   Township  Native,
Elected Sherilt ol the Oonnty
One of the most hotly contested
elections held in tbe coanty for
an oft year was that which oame
to a close with the polling of ths
votes last Tuesday evening.    Interest centered in the contests tor
Judge of the court and for that oi
sheriff.   Tbe regular Republican
nominee for the office of sheriff
wsa Grant McClellan, of Franks-
town township, and his Democratic opponent met Joseph Cherry,
tor years a street car conductor
on the Logan .Valley  line and a
native ot Antis townshiy, but residing in Altoona the greater part
ot his life.   Cherry  is a roan of
the  labor union, but tbe Labor
party    endorsed   hia Republican
opponent.   The content was waged aloog determined lines by Mr.
Cherry and wherever he went in
the county left a favorable impression.    McClellan was  in  the  primary contest four years ago and
came within a few hund red votes
of being (he choice  of  the   Republican   party.    - Not     content
.with the good  showing he  then
made, upon    the,ill    advice   ot
friends, sought the election on an
ii.dependent ticket.    This a<-tion
rankled in the breasts of tie old
line .Republicans, and his defeat
on   Tuesday   can   he   attributed
st-lely to this csuse.
Mr.' Cherry is a fine man, for
years a faithful employe ot the
electric line and has. triends by
tbs hundred throupeout the
county who are quite matifisdj...*.

Interest in the borough election
centered iu the election of eounci I -
men, accessor and school directors
The four Republican nominees,
Messrs."Lupfer, Lotz, Wolfe and
Hoover being the choice of tbe
voters by nice majorities. All are
enterprising citizens and should
render excellent service to the tax
payers.
For School directors tbe sue-*!
cessfnl candidates are Rev. Samuel Barber, pastor of the Presby-
terain church and E. N. Root.
Both are men of known ability,
Mr. Root having bad a number of
yenrs experience on tbe board and
will give a gong account of themselves.
Benjamin Boyer, defeated Fr-t
ank M. Glasgow for assessor Mr.
Glasgow is the p-esent assesor and
bas served in tbis capacity for the
past couple years. The duties of
the office will not be uew to Mr;
Boyer, having served a term as
such a number of years ago. He
is a house builder and .carpenter
and his knowledge of values
should well fit him for the position.
In Antis township tbe interest
centered in the election ot a tax
collector. The aspirants for the
office was George C. Bland, who
hss held the office for tbe past
ten yearj, and who was tbe Republican nominee. His opponent
wss Ira Shoenlslt on tho Labor
tioket Shoeu felt carried the first
district by a handsome vote, while
Bland whs successful in the 8ec-
cond district, yet the vote is heavier in the first district and Bland
was unable to overcome Shoen-
lelts lead and hensc he is elected.
There was also much interest in
the selection of a supervisor and
school directors- The returns
show that Jacob miller was sue
cessful for supervisor, rnd C. E.
Raugh and George Daugherty
for school directors.

Want Law Chsnged
Local   coon   hunters   are dis
satisfied with   the present open
season  for these animals.    It  is
claimed  that the season ahould
open on Sept lo-instead of on October to January.   Tne reason for
the change   is   that   lumberman
and others who stay in the woods
bunt coons  up until the end of
January.    During" the January
tbaw  the animals can  be easly
tracked to their trees and gotten
with ease, aud their numbers are
greatly    redqeed.     Tbe   proper
time to hunt coons is in September and Ojtobarr, as iu Nowmber
and December: the weather is too
cold to   roam the mou ntaina at
night.   An effort will be made to
bave the desired change in  tbe
law made at the next legislature.
