Forest City, Pa., Jan. 22. The Rs
publicau club will meet in Davies'hall
tomorrow night. The following night
will occur the Republican caucus at
the same place for the purpose of nomi
nating borough officers for the coming
political fight, which promises to be
the greatest one ever held in the bor
ougb.
The Democrats have a good ticket in
the held, but undoubtedly, the Krpnri
licans will try and place juit as good a
one.

There la Dissension iu Bhter Chunks
Among- Dunmore Democrats.
Special to the Scrauton Tribune.
Dunmokk, Pa., Jan. 22. Alter many
moons of unparallelleil harmony aud
peace, after enfolding all borough af
fairs iu its enumerable tenacles, the
Patrick Henry club, which hides itself
under the cloak of Democracy, has sue
climbed to that fatal disease, internal
dissension. The overt sellishuess of
one taction, which has ruled it for
years and has dictated to nil connected,
has aroused the ire of the neglected
portion and now the whole association
is in chaos, aud the candidates who
nominated themselves are in fear that
at tho Democratic convention, where
the fixed primaries usutlly ratify the
club's wishes, they will be snowdd un
der. In other words the Boland-Duggan
faction and the McCormack-Gibbons
faction are at war. Both factions are
about equal in strength, but the for
mer one has administrated with a high
hand for a long time, making the lat
ter one dance to their music. At times
this music bas not been writteu in the
best of time and on this occasion the
tune has been entirely neglected, tho
McCormuck Gibbons section being
left in the cold without a nomination.
The fight has been declared aud now
the Democratic adherents do not know
where they are at. If the oue party is
cut at the primaries the other one will
bo coushUred antagonist aud vice
versa. In the mean time the Republi
cans are saying little and thinking a
god deal.
Another cause of dissatisfaction in
the Henry ranks Is caused by a letter
that lias been issued to every nominee
requesting him to discountenance any
alliance with the Republican party and
refuse any indorsement or considera
tion at their hands. The disgruntled
ones tire seeking satisfaction in the Re
publican ranl;.J, and as the latter party
expects to nominate a ticket that will
in reality be a People's ticket it is
thought they will obtain what they
desire.

These are Center Tables.
Last week we interested the men
with OHice Chairs, which they ap
preciated, as we judge by their pur
chases. This week we will try and
interest the Ladies with Center
Tables at One-third less than former
prices. They will be displayed in
our large show window with prices
on each. A Table of this descrip
tion can be used in numbers, as
every room in the house should
possess one. They are as handy as
a shelf or mantel, and decidedly
more ornamental. Look up your
spaces and come THIS WEEK
and select a Table.
