Mlba Underwood gave a beautiful re

REVIEW OF THE
POLITICAL FIELD
LACKAWANNA IS ATTRACTING
MUCH ATTENTION.
Our Two Candidates for Justico of
tho Supromo Court Havo Turned
tho Eyes of tho Politicians of tho
State upon Us-Judge Smith has
Named His Dologatea-Big Party
of Smith Boomers and a Band will
Lcavo This City 'on Monday for
tho State Capitol.
I.ackawnnan county Is receiving nn
unusually largo shaio of attention
throughout the state Just now because
of thu candidacy of lion. It. AV. Arch
bald, president Judge of tho courts of
this countv. and Hon. P. P. Smith, of
the superior coutt, for tho stipieme
court nominations. Judgo Aichbald
asks tho distinction from the Republi
can patty and Judge Smith from tho
Democratic paitj. Tho Republican
state convention will not be held until
August, but the Democrats do not
pioposo to wait until so late n day.
They will nominate their stntc candi
dates nt Ilnrrlsburg AVednesday.
Inasmuch us two supumo couit Jus
tices nro to be elected this joar and
the cltUcn is only entitled to vote for
one, tho Republican and Demociatlo
nomination niu equivalent to an elec
tion. Usually a Ropublleun state nom
ination in Pennsylvania is equivalent
to un election, this time, so far as the
supreme couit is concerned, it Is a cei
talnty. The fact that a hupieemo
nomination cariles with It an election
to tho Denioeiat who secmes It, Is
making the struggle within that party
of the liveliest character. The Indica
tions point to the nomination of Hon.
P. P. Smith as a sttong possibility, but
It Is requiting all of his bhtcwclncss
and diplomacy to keep at tho head of
tho procession.
Judgo John Lynch, of AA'Ilkcs-Raire,
Is also a candidate for tho supieine
couit nomination and during- this
week he has given some uneasiness to
Judgo Smith and his fi lends Judge
Lj ncii is not in a position to .mtunnd
the nomination, but with eighteen Luz
erne delegates behind him he Is nble
to bilng about complications that muv
upset caiefully laid plans. Judge
Smith yesterduy named the delegates
who will ropiesent this county in tho
state convention. They are:

Judge Smith's headquaiteis at 213
Walnut stieet, Hairisbuig, opposite
tho post ofllce, will bo opened this af
ternoon Colonel F. J. FiUslmmnns,
T. J. Jennings and Attorney M. J. Mc
Andiow leave this moinlng for Hanls
burg to take charge of tho headquar
tois. Theio will be an abundance of
Smith literature to keep tho namo of
the Lackawanna candidate piominent
ly before tho delegates.
At 2 IS Monday afternoon the big
puty of Smith boomcis will leave this
city for the state capital It Is e
pected that there will bo about one
hundred and fifty of them. A band
will accompany the Lackawanna nun
and when they leach Haiilsbuig thev
will proceed to give tho Smith boom the
widest possible populailty.
Owing to tho Immense crowd that
will attend the convention, It was Im-
possioio lor tho Lackawanna delega
tion to secuie eiuarters at any of tin
hotels. They have icntcri a laige hall,
which will bo supplied with eots and
theio they will make- theli heidquai
teis while nt tho state capital
Tho Luzeine ndmlreis of Judgo
Ljnch aie also going to tho convention
In forco nnd will bo accompanied lv a
band. Ex-State Chairman John Gat -man
will bo one of the prominent lig
uies of that delegation
This convention gives piomise of
being one of the most InTTTestlng gath
eilng of Democrats held in the state
for veMrs. Thii'c candidates ate to
be nomiuuted, a justico of tin supu me
couit, Judge of btiporloi court and a
state tieasurer. In the i w nt of tin
nomination of Judgo Smith fm the
higher couit theio will bo two vacan
cies (hi tho superior couit bene h and
i actly tho same conditions will apply
to that cotut as to the .-lipteme.
A good deal of picllminary figuring
is being demo with this possibility In
mind and, by the time the convention
opens, nffalis will have so shaped
themselves that this suporior omit
nomination, which enqlnaill would gi
begging foi a taker, win toutiol the
bltuatlou. On combinations that will
bo made with reference to that oillee
tho fato of the other nominations will
largely depend.
From Harrlshuig comes the i.port
that a veiy determined effoit Is to
be made to send tho supieme court
nomination to tho western part of the
state. A part of this ptogiamme is
the nomination of AVIUIam T. Creasv.
of Columbia county, for stnto tieasurer
Judge .Smith's fi lends are not
ulai mod by this i cpoi t. They are c on
vlnred that their favorite will com
mand the situation nt Hnriisburfe" AVtd
nedav. Steps havo nlicudy been taken In tho
Fiist and Third leglblntivo districts
to elect delegates to tho Republican
state convention. Similar action will
be tuken In tho Second and Fouith
dlstilcts in the near futuie.
Theio Is not likely to bo nny opposi
tion to tho men selected by Judgo
Archbald for thi.-i'onor of icpresent
Ing this county at tho state gather
lug. His fitness for the olllce ho aspires
to nnd thet general eleslio to sco him

CHAMBER CONCERT.
Guernsci's hall Is most ndmlrnbly
adapted to chamber music, but perhaps
that Is not tho sollturv icuson why tlio
second concert of tho season was the best
ever given by tho Ilemlieiger quartette.
That tho programme had much to do with
tho plensuro nflordcil is undoubted, it
vvns a ptoKrimtno to cniupttire an an-
chorlto and the gieat pity of iho wholo
affair is that so tew weio picscnt to on-

fail to bo uplifted by such delightful
