Reader vote for HARRISON ALLEN for AUDITOR GENERAL, on Tuesday next, if you wish to retain a first class incumbent in that important office. Mr. Allen has proved by his works during the last two years his worth as a guardian of your treasures, and it would be an egregious piece of folly for you to supplant him now. In all his relations he has proved himself honest and true, and just the man you need in the position. His opponent Mr. Justus F. Temple is wholly unknown to you, and if you do your duty on election day he will pass into still deeper oblivion.
