THE CANVASS FORGOVERNOR,
|
Etkin's Progont Gait not Fast Enough to |
Win Oot, |
Altorney General Iilkin has been e x- |
ceptionally fortunate in the dele wate |
elections of the past week, and the|
pre at which he is traveling is some- |
thing of a surprise to those who had |
supposed his campaign would go to]
pieces as as Senator Quay avd |
Mr. Durbam declared against his nom- |
ination. jut the is
enough, even if it can be mainta
to enable him to win,
Inciuding the elections in the five
counties of Crawford, Dauphin, Erie,
Monroe and Northumberland on Sat-
urday, delegate to the State con-|
vention have been chosen, This is six
less than one- half the whole number, |
leaving 185 yet to elect. The division |
of those elected given
possible on the best obtainable infor-
mation is: Elkin, 85; Penoypacker,
19; Watres, 14; uninstri .
in Sispiate the two from the First Lu-
zerne District. In this statement Mr. |
Eiki given
structed for himand a
to have declared for
those of Lancaster, MelKesn and Mor |
cer, which were not iostructed by any |
convention, |
From these figures, which we be¢-
lieve are as nearly is pos
sible to make ther n at this stage of
canvass, it will be seen that Mr, Elkin
must secure ninety -
out of the 1585 to be elected in ord:
to secure a bare majority of ti
tion. To put it another way, he inust
elect every delegate but four left to be
chosen outside of Philadelphia, unless
he can pick up some of those from the
uninstructed list. The
margin there, TI! i

It looks, therefore, as if, under the
most favorable estimate of his final

vention. It is much easier to foresee
this than to predict who will be nomi-
nated, though with the soliddelegation
of Philadelphia supporting him the
nomination of Judge Peupypacker
seems most probable at this thine,
To the Elkin delegates mentioned

Boy Badly Hart,
Last Maturday as George 8. Bmith
and his ten year-old son, Frank, were
hauling lumber io Middleburg, the boy
started the team down hill over a
rough road, a board slipped off and
struck the horses. The horses started
to run and the boy slipped off the wa.
gon and fell to the ground. The wheel
caught the leg below the kopee and
peeled the flesh from the bone from the
kuee to the ankle, The bone was laid
absolutely bare, but was in no wise in-

Those Loose Stones,
There is much complaint that super.
visors do uot properly comply with
the law demanding the removal of
loose stones from the public highways
at stated times, This is a complaint
that should not be necessary. The
roads would be much lmproved if this
law were more strictly enforced,

not in this section. There are a few
locusts make their appearance every
year, but the regular visitation of the
pest in a swarm will not occur until
1006. In 1855 the locusts appeared iu

orchards. They next appeared in 1872
but were not so numerous as in 1855,
