Tbe Welissort Bridge. The Grand Jury has already elven Its of ficial approval of the proposition to put up a new and mora substantial bridge across the Lehigh at Weissport, and It only re mains for final approval of the Court to authorize the Commissioners to go ahead. It will be a matter of considerable expense to the county. Should the bridge be locat ed as now, It would bo nscessary first to erect a temporary structure to boused by the public until the new ono Is completed. But to make a sood lob of It. the locution must be changed so as to avoid the sharp corner at the Lehlghton end. The course should be In a line with the main street In Welsiport direct ncross to a point nearly or in line witn me street from the .benign Valley station up to the main street, l'rou ably a change of location, as suggested and under consideration would cost nearly or quite 310,000 more than placing It on the old piers, which would, on the other band, necessitate the unavoidable expense of the. ine temporary bridge.

The above is in substance and fact what has from time to timo appeared In our columns, but wo reproduce the pertinent nrticlo from the .Democrat to show that public opinion calls for tho erection-of new bridge on a hotter location. AVo havo referred to tho fact that tho viewers' rcpon had been confirmed nt si by the court, and thai If no objections aro presented the Jan uary court will confirm tho report absolute' ly, Thereafter It remains with the Commie 'loners to act on this Important matter, the actlou of the court, not being mandatory, It strikes us very forcibly that In view of th fact that tho bridge in question being one ot tbe most Important In the county the Commissioners should not fall to approve of tbe report prcsontcd and confirmed by the Court. Tbe new bridge is an absolute necessity and tbe cbangn of location will be a wise ono In every particular. AVe liave been informed that tho Lehigh ATalley rail road will defray a fair proportion of the in creased expense Incurred by erecting the bridge on a new site, this being the rase tho County Commissioners should not hesi tate In their approval of this Important mat ter.

Politics a year and two years hence as seer, through tho spectacles of a Mauch.! Chunk correspondent to the Lansford Record: "Now that tbe election Is over this town is as quiet as a country churchyard. Still, you hear faint whispers abont n?xt year and the year after. Next fall the offices of District Attorney and Associate Judge are to be filled. On the Democratic side the District Attomeyshln Is conceded to J. S. Fisher, of East Mauch Chunk, who by the way, will make an excellent official. His opponent will be cither Klefcr, Heydt or Gilliam. The Republican Judgeship nomi nation Is conceded to W. H. Stroh, by vlr-: tue of his appointment. "Two years hence will 1ms a lively cam-i paign. The offices to filled will bo Judge' Legislature, County Treasurer, Register and Recorder and County Commissioners. "For the Judgeship, Judge Drelier and District Attorney Rapshcr will be candi dates: and who knows but that Hon. Allen Craig may hncklc on his armor for the combat. "As Ed. Mulhoarn has stated that he will not again ask his Democratic friends to cut their ticket, or In other words, ttiat bo will not endanger his health by going Into a hard canvass, It may be i pretty fight between two new men for tho Legislative honor. "Thcie Is no denj Ing the fact that James Handwerk Is laying his ropes for a fourth term. This fight may be between tbe same contestants as last year Lenta and.Hand- werk. In that fight Lenta was beaten principally through the opposition of Dr. Ki-amer, who believed himself deceived by Lcntz at the nomination, in not getting the Mauch Chunk delegation. For this Lenlz was not to blame, for the reason that Geo. Dolan's friends made It nlah impossible to (.'eliyer them against him. To deliver this delegation for Kramer Lentz would have endangered bis own chances. Handwerk's majority after all was but 12(1, and that with a Labor tlcket In tho field. "For Treasurer it will be a free-for-all race on both sides. As it is the best office In the county, wo know a dozen good men who arc willing to take their chances of election. On the Republican side: AYin. Kane and AYm. Thompson of Upper Mauch Chunk ; Nathan Tanner, of Lansford ; Harry Bower, of Lehlghton. and others will trust their chances to Democratic liberality In Itbe way of "stickers." AVlthin the Demo- 'cratlc bosoms of those who fell outside the breastworks last year, these lingers dreams of handling the county finances. And who knows but that AYcalhcrly may present Its energetic candidate of scferal fights, In tho person of E. P. AYilllams, now that he has become "an oft'cnslvo partisan" through Cleveland's defeat. "The present Commissioners may succeed in being nominated, and they may not. It all depends upon how they stand with the party workers. If Hawk is again the minority nomlneehls chanpes for election are good." A Prettv Marriage at rarryvills.
