TUE CONQKKSSIONAL F1UUT. What tt.e Candidal! ana Tbeir Friends Dave te Say About It. The grca'est interest centres en the office of congressman, and all the candidates are confident of winning. The frlends of Ulestand claim that be cannot be defeated, because they say he his with him a majority of tbe leading town ship workers in the several districts, that his record as congressman has been satis factory te bis constituents, and with bit ex ex ex perlonce Ihe peeplere convinced that he can be of mero uee than any of the ether candidates. KSIILEMAN'S CLAI1T. The friends of Eshleman claim and say they cm prove that when the deal was made te beat A. Herr Smith, H lest and premised tbtt If he was given the offlee two terms, in consideration of Eabelman net running at that time, he would atep aside and net be a candidate for a third term. Esbleman kept his part of the con tract, but Ulestand did net. The friends of Eshleman today beast of their ability te nominate him. They base tbeir confi dence en the faet that be bat a bet ter organization in the county than either of the ether candidates, and that there will be developments before the week is out that will create a boom In hit favor that will result in bis nomination. One of the probable eren's te happen they say is the flopping of Mentzer te Eihleman, because Senater Quay wants Eshleman nominated. It la known that the senator and Menlzer pulled together s few years age, and if Quay makes sueh a request Menlzer will go te Eshleman, as It la be lieved that Roebuek is net in the fight Anether claim en the part of the oelonel's friends Is that befere the week Is out It will be demonstrated that the light la between him and Breslus, and rather than see Bro Bre slns elected, be will get the support of many throughout the county who te-day are for Hiestand. In conclusion our informant named many aotlve workers In the several districts of tbe county who will work for the tuccees of Eshleman as they never worked before for any etber candidate. Mil. nOKllUCH IN TUE FIQHT TO STAY. A representative of the Intelligencer recently had a very frank ebat with Br. P. J. Roebuck, Warwick's candidate for Con gress. The doctor said of his obtnees : "I am very hopeful of winning, beeause in the fifty or mere dlatrlets that I nave canvassed, I find a very strong sentiment In my favor. Unless my friends desert me in very large numbers, I can't see hew I will te beaten. The argument that I make before the peo ple, that the country districts, which fclve the big majorities, ought te have the con gressman once in a generation, bas bad much geed eflect and has materially strengthened my position. Then, tee, I am from a very strong Republican section, wbere 1 expect the great bulk of the vote. In the southern end of the county, where I bad hardly hoped for much, 1 flad myself possessed of unexpected strength. My hopes of my success are based en the belief that Hiestand and Eshleman will draw from the same element of the party and offset eaeh etber ; Breslns will get many scattered votes, but net having the town ship workers with him and laeklng the or ganization tbey give in a contest of this kind, he will fall of suceess ; and 1 will come in for the vote that remains, which 1 think will be enough te eleet me. I am in the fight te stay te the very end, and have S3 Informed all my friends." inn SOLDIKE CANDIDATE. ) Yen can put It down that Brealus It going te be the next ecngreitman, " said ene of that gentleman's enthaslastle friend te the Intelliesncer's reporter te-day. "He will be elected because he will have strength everywhere. The eei:'er ua for him; the tam- 187. psnaes ptcple sn far hiss, the Ktv Era It ter Mas, the Inquirer It for him and fea made Meads everywhere through the county la bis aaavaaw." Our friend was reminded that Dr. Roetaetx alsoelaiBied te be a soldier candidate, snd he replied "that his thlrty-seTeadayn' service te the mlilUs was net equal te en day's service at the frenf. THB CONTEvr IN THB CITT. The rrsbabls sUsuim la la asvatal wards ea atarilsr Hest. With geed weather there will be polled ea Saturday between le.OOO sad 18,000 votes, of whleh about 3,000 will be polled In the elty. The First ward la tbe home of Hlestsed, and of oeurse he will earry it, but bis ma jority will net be great. Ksblemsn, Breslns and Reebnck have warm friend In that ward, but Hiestand baa the best workers ; among whom msy be named Register Myers, J. Hay Brown, esq., Assessor Welchant, Treasurer Rathfon. Deputy Recorder Eberman, Polleemen Weaver and Fiennard and the Hartman boys. ( In tbe Second ward there Is going te be a bitter oentest. Landlord Martin, of the "Spotted Cat," Is for Roebuek ; Bensenlg and his friends for Hiestand ; Al Shenck for Breslns, while Eshleman has numerous friends. The ward will be cut up with Hiestand or Eshleman In tbe lead and very little difference between them. In the Third wsrd Itsntser at present Is for Roebuck, Aldermsn Bsrr, "Buck" liSlbley, Martin Kretder and Capf. Mo Me Mellen for Eshleman, Cbarlf-y Land la for Hiestand, and Mart Keller for Breslur. The probability Is that Eshleman will get a handsome vote In tbe wsrd with the balance divided between the ether can didates. In the Fourth wsrd there will be a het oentest, and the result will be a close vote for Congress with the chances In favor of Breslus hsvlng a small majority. Majer Qrlesjt is the lesder of the Breslus forces, Pete irerdney, J, W. Jehnsen, Harry Shaub and Wash Potts, of Helatand't, Alderman Spurrier and Constable Eloh Eleh Eloh eltc of Kshlemsn's, snd Roebuck does net appear te have any one looking out for his Interests. In the Fifth ward, In which Breslus lives, Weedy Jeffries, Alderman Hershey, Offi cers Lehr and Helss and Councilman Remley are for Hiestand ; E. K. Martin will be' Breslus' lieutenant In this wsrd; A. J. Eberly is likely te drop te Roebuck, and Eshleman's Interests will be looked after by some of the younger Republicans who have net heretofore been active at Re publican primaries. The Sixth wsrd is the home of Eshleman, and here he will get a handsome vote. In this wsrd reside many of Hteatand's warm friends, but It Is oenoeded by all the politicians tbst Eshleman will carry tbe ward by a geed majority. If 550 votes sre polled be will have net less than 850 votes, with Hiestand second. Breslus hss some friends In this wsrd, but there Is no organ ized effort en their part In the Seventh and Eighth the contest will be between Eshleman and Hiestand, with the chances In favor of the latter car rying tbem. In tbe Ninth ward Hiestand has some of the best workers, bat Eshle man's Interests will be well taken care of In this wsrd by Capt Edward Fralley. The summing up of the congressional vote would indicate that the vote in the city will be close between Eshleman and Hiestand, with Breslus a geed third. THE SENATE Fid ST IN TUB CITV. Four yesrs age Senater Mylln carried the city by ever 1,700 majority again at Land Is. This year Lsndls hss made a better canvair, has political backing and With that will lncrense his vote ; but from a careful revlew of the field It appears that Landis can carry only three wards the Second, Third snd Fourth, and that he will be beaten In tbe city anywhere from 500 te 1,000. THE REOORDERSHIP. The contest for recorder will be very close. Relnbeld will earry the First, Seventh, Eighth and Ninth wards, and Lehman will have a geed majority in tbe Second, Tblrd and Fourth wards and a small one In the Fifth. ASSEMBLY, CITT DISTRICT. All the candidates for assembly, for the city district have made a thorough canvass, Franklin has the beat or It because he will get the united strength of tbe Sensenlg combination, while that of Men I zer 's will be divided between Leng and Brlnten. COUNTT SOLICITOR. There has net been much Interest taken in this city In the contest for county solici tor, but Indications favor Lane carrying tbe city. He Is tbe eldest candidate out for tbe posltlen,and has tbe support of many politicians of both factions. WBAT CORRESPONDENTS 8r. Hcperta Frem all Sections el tbe County as te tbe Coming Primary. The following replies were jecelved from correspondents in answer te Inquiries sd dressed te them by the Intellieencer. They are the views of tbe parties who sent them and ere supposed te reflect tbe sentl. ment in their respective districts. Their answers are published Just as tbey were re ceived: Columbia, April 8 The primary con test Is exciting considerable Interest among tbe Republicans of tbe town, and they are new waking up te tbe Importance of this contest. The indications at present are that a large vote will be polled en Saturday next, variously estimated at lrem 800 te 950 votes. Much of this interest In tbe contest and a large portion of ibis vote will be due te the popularity of tbe home candidates. Colombia has presented three candidates as fellows : O. C, Kidman, esq , for the leg islature ; ex-Sherlft Jacob S. Strine for peer director, and Rebert S. Cenklin for delegate te tbe state convention. Mr. Kauifman stands vsy well with tbe people, his record at Harrlaburg is being scattered broadcast as sn srgu ment for his renomlnstlen, and he Is papular with the soldier element en ac count of his prominenee In tbe movement for the Gettysburg tablet bill, bis votes .In favor of the Erie home and tbe liberal appropriation for the eeldler' orphan schools. Ex-SherlfT Strine Is tbe only candidate In tbe Northern district for peer director, and I think his vote will be about as unani mous as Mr. KauUman'a. Robt. Cenklin, the candidate for state delegate, la a young man, popular with tbe leaders and geed worker. He will be cordially supported. In a straight oenttst between the Ment. zer and Sensenlg combinations, outside of the local candidates or special favorites, the result will be pretty cleae, with the changes in favor of the Menlzer set-up. Frem tbe present outlook the candidates In the congressional race will stand Ules tand, Breslur, Roebuek and Eshleman. The plurality, If any, for Hiestand will be small, and it may be possible that Brealus will carry the town. He Is popular among tbe soldier element of town, snd that means a very geed vote. He waa in town a few days sge looking after hit political fences, and he is reported as saying tbst the outlook was exceedingly encouraging. Strine will be for tbe Hiestsnd-Sennenlg combination, but Hlppey is sn uncertain factor, As yet he it Just as likely te be for Brealai m ter Hiestand. A knowing poll Uelan reports that Breslns will have a smalt plurality, with Hiestand and Roebuek does for next position. Kahlemaa has some supporters ataeag tbe young men a&d themes, who reta without ceesalting the leaders, being tbst uncertain element In all elections known as the vest-poeket voter." Fer recorder Ed, Retnheld will earry the town by a geed vote, although Lehman hat some warm supporters among tba workers. Andy Kauffman, Yoeum, Sara Hlppey, Eckmaa, Bhell, Wtke, Caswell, Klnn, Stevenson, Olepper, Msttern, Paine, ex ex Senater Kauffman and Wilsen will sup port the Msntzsr combination mainly, al though they may have Individual prefer ences for some of the miner offlesa. Ex Jostle Frank, of the Third ward, Is still an nneertala factor la the oentest, and the vote will change materially with his sup port. He Is a power In the Third ward, controlling many votes therr. Fer Congress and recorder much of the strength of the Menlzer combination In town wilt be due te the candidacy of Representative Kanffman, whom Menlaer Is supporting, and who, together with the ether candidates en the same ticket, will poll a large vote. There will be a geed vote for Jehnsen Miller, of LUItz, en account or bis taxation Ideas. A. Q. Seyfsrt will lead theBsnsenlgleglslstlve ticket, with Johnny Kemper a geed second. William Smith will run behind tbe Sensenlg legislative set-up In Columbia, owing te his opposition te Kauffman, Tbe vote secured by Ranck will be a geed one. The vote en ether t dices will be divided accoidlngje the factions. AMONO) HIESTAND'S RELATIVES. Marietta, P., April 7, 1888. The number of votes that will be polled In this borough at the coming primary will net exceed 205 ; Hiestand, whose home wss formerly In East Denegal and who hat many relatives snd some wsrm personal friends In this locality, will caw the box. being net less than 60 votes sbesd or Bre- slus, who will be second, followed by Ejhlemsnsnd Roebuck. This calculation la based en the Esblemsn following sd herlng ; should they break loose, natur ally, Hiestand would be tbe gainer and his plurality might amount te 20 mere than ee tt msted. Breslus will receive st least 80 votes; Eshlemsn snd Roebuek together 60, snd Hiestand at least hslf et tbe entire number polled. The legislative candidates likely te receive a geed vote are, In the order given, Ranck, KauOman, Smith, Boyd and Seyfert, with tbe ethers less than CO votes, while all the above will run from 00 te 140. Tbe recorder vote Is here all one aided. E. L. Relnheld, who lives at the eastern end of the borough, Just outslde tbe limits, will reeslve within 30 or 40 et the entire vote. The political strategists sre yet very quiet, and neihing definite as te what will be done by Jndlvldnala can be given. The congressional fight Is here principally be tween Hiestand and Breslus ; tbe straight outs for the former, and these who have been dabbling in prohibition, Mug wumpery, independence, civil service re ro re ferm snd every "ism" snd sldolasueef the psrty for the latter.

According te pres ent indications it Is apparent that Hies, tend will carry this district for Congress with a goodly majority, with Breslus as second man. Smith snd Ksuffmsn will lead for the legislature, with however some dissatisfaction, whleh causes them te lese some votes. The greatest fight here Is for recorder, and Lehman will make tt het for Relnheld. A great many voters of this (Rtlaheld's LANCABTEB. PA., MONDAY. own district,) are opposed te him, and he will, no doubt, feel slighted after the tote Isoeunted. Relnheld will, however, have the majority, but his home vote will net be gratifying.

Wbat an Obserraut Uorrsfpendon fan la Ilia Oroued-Ilot ueuulry, Quarryvillk, April 9 Although the Republican primary Is near at hand, It is scarcely in tbe power of sny ene te forecast with any degreeef certainty anything in the Lewer Eud. Tbe fight all around seems te be a mixed ene up te this time and if there are as many changes la tbe tlme, be tween this and the primary as there liave been in the last two weeks most anything can be expected. In the early part of tbe campaign It was te be supposed that the contest in the lower part of tbe county for Congress was betireen Breslus and Eshleman, with the former largely in the lead. Hiestand was lit for third place and Reebunk unheard of. It Is net se new, the fight is down te Breslus and Hiestand, with strong chances that I "Jelly Jsek" will lead j the best workers I sis with him. A geed many voters who I APRIL 9. 1888. -J. we supposed were for Breslus will snd are already pulling for Hiestand, but Breslus will get a big vote. Eshleman is net ss strong as he was earlier, especially se In the extreme lower end, where his campaign began tee early. Dr. Roebuck hss been around te see nesrly everybody, and his red, white snd blue cards are In every publle plaoe beside the handsome pleture of Rahlsman : but his vote will be easily counted ; he Is tee rar north for this section. Tbe fight for senator Is a neat enr. The working pellilalant are for Mylln, and his chances are the best at this time. Lsndls has been making an extensive esuvsss, and bas en his aide all the el" Independ ents,", but many el tbem have test their power In politics. As In the congressional contest, there have been many ehanges. Mylln baa grown stronger lately. Asa worker be Is mere popular than Landla ; but In the fight a geed deal depends en the combinations whleh are made with the candidates for assembly, The assembly fenee seems te be, se far, a prist for all, and all the candidates are sure or winning. Seme or them will certainly be sere after It is ever. It leeks ss though Hetdelbsugh and Eberman were In tbe lead. The Utter will get all Ihe vote or tbe antl-temperanee people, and the former la being pushed by "Levi's friends." Beth Peeples and Oatehell have a strong follow ing and will give tbe ethers trouble. There sre plenty of people who think Lancaster county would go Democratic If Oatehell did net go en the stum p d urlng every campaign and they are afraid be will go back en the party If they de net vote for him. Peeples Is making a very qulet but aggressive fight He Is a geed worker. Tbe recorder candidate from this section Jehn Moere, of West Drumore, Is a geed and competent man, but net much et a politician. Outside of his own township he will net get mueh of a vote. Ed. Relnheld Is by far the strongest man I In this soetlon, but Lehman will get a fair vote ; both of them have made an aotlve etnvsss snd have attended nearly sll tbe big publie sains that took place this season and have both made big premises te tske no mere than legal fees.
