(some Facts about J walter m. homan | 1 bff Republican candidate for Sheriff. ' I Mr. Walter M. Boman, was born in Cold J Spring in 1876, and has resided in the i lower section of the oounty all of his J life. He is the son of George W. Roman, | a life long resident of Lower Township, j and a veteran of the Civil War, having , 'served three years in Company I, 12th V |j. VoL He received a common school edu- | cation in the schools of his native township and had much experience at farm-., ing. later he held a responsible position with the Knickerbocker Ice and Coal Company and was a trusted employe. 1 ■ economy and thrift heaequired spfficient capital to enter upon business for himself and has been engaged for several years in a local express business which does a large percentage of the business in this line in this city and vieinity. He collects freights of many thousands of "dollars per year for the Pennsylvania Reading railroads and is agent for deliveries and collections for the great Philadelphia de(#Ftment stores of Gim bel Bro., lit Bra. and Snellenburgs, handling in the course of the year thousands of dollars for them. He has held these relations with these great business concerns for several years. For 3 years be- j has been assistant bill clerk of the New ' Jersey Senate and has been practically ^ in charge of this department of the legislative organisation, giving complete satisfaction to all who were interested ■nil winning many strong friends be- ^ cause of his affability and effectiveness | in this position. He is an active mem- ( ber of the Jr. O. U. A. M., I. O. 0. F., and Imp. O.- R. M. He is a man of unswerving principle who can be neither driven nor coaxed into action which does not appeal to his sense of justice and right and as Sheriff he will conduct the office in the interest of the people and without dictation from any source.
