Tho first Itepubll can primaries In toizcrne county un der the Crawford county rules will tnke place Saturday between tho hoitis of 4 and 7. Just as to the result there, of course, Is considerable doubt. There aro forty-two candidates for the dif ferent nominations, ns follows: Congress T. I Newell, Kingston; Luther C.

Turner; Alden station; A. C. Watson, Duryoa; Gus Williams, Nantlcoke. For the past few days the various candidates and their lleutennnts have been hard at work and the result of tho primaries Is eagerly awaited. For state senator the contest seems to He between William Drury, of Plttston, nnd the present senator, W. J. Scott, of Wapvvallopen. At the last session of the state law-makers, Senator Scott voted for M. S Quay for United States senator until the last few days of the session, when he suddenly Hopped and voted the other way, and he has since been known ns an anti-Quay man. During the piesent campaign he Is sued a public letter, in which he said he would never vote for Quay, even If he should again be the caucus nominee. On this Issue It Is thought the congress contest will dwell and the Indications point stiongly to tho selection of Mr, Drury. For congress, Henry W. Palmer, of Wllkes-Uarre, seems to be looming up quite ptomlnently, F. S Newell, of Kingston, being considered his closest opponent. For Judge, George S. Terrls, of West Plttston, Is consldeied the likely nomi nee. For district attorney, Benjamin R. Jones, of Warrior Hun, vvllldoubtless make a good run, although D. E. Bax ter, of Wllkes-Barre, Is by far the most widely advertised candidate, even of the whole forty-two. For cleik of the courts, tho race ap pears! to be n close one between W. D Gerlach, of Hazleton, and Heese Lloyd, of Freeland. The race for prothonotnry Is the most doubtful one, although the names of Jonathan H. Davis, of Kingston, and J. W. Moore, of Slocum, have been much talked of. HAGOERTY'S GOOD FORTUNE. Plttston Man Returns from Alaska Rolling In Wealth. Special to the Scranton Tribune. Plttston, July 6. James E. Haggerty, of Nome, Alaska, Is vidtlng his fam ily In Cork Lane, Plttston ownshlp, after an absence of thiee jears. Hng geity Is a mairlod man about 3r years of age and come back fiom the Klon dike lolling In wealth, while his wife and two children have been living In a little one-stoiy hovel near this city. Hnggerty's stoiy Is quite romantic. He has always been somewhat of a rover and about ten years ago visited Australia and from there went to South Africa. On March 10,1897, togged out In high silk hat and with $11 In his pocket he started for the Klondike, Ho bummed his way ucross the continent and six teen days later found himself In Seat tle, Washington, with SO cents In his pocket. At Seattle he secured woik In the ship yards until he had accumu lated $100 In cash. He then hired out as un engineer on a vessel bound for DnwBon City. While In Seattle he was Joined by two Plttston men, also bound for Alaska, but on sight of the rickety vessel on which the trip was to be made, they lost heart and re turned home. Tor his services as en gineer he received $150 nnd landed at St. Michaels with a miner's cuflt and $250 In his pockets. From here he went up the Yukon river as far as Dawson City, wheie he sold his silk hat to a hotelkeeper for $100. In Dawson City ho met a Swiss gentleman named Hany Myers and they decided to be come partners. Tho two men then wont on n prospecting trip up the Stewart and Pelly rivers and Junlcot creek, but met with no success and le turned to Dawson City "dend broke," A man named Will Gates, known as "Swift Water Bill." "giub-staked," or lent them, $250 each, without Interest. They took a trip down the Yukon river and lnnded on nn Island be tween Nulnta and Holy Cross mission, vvheio they chopped wood and sold It to up-coming steamers, which had run out of fuel. The wood brought from $20 to $30 per cord and the men worked at It for several months until they had cleared $3,000 each. From hero they went to Bonanza creek, where they purchased n fraction of a claim nnd worked It for a while, and luter went back to Junlcat creek. Here they staked out two claims, which they later sold to tho London Rothschild compnny for $27,000 each. Tho excitement caused by a big find next took their nttentlon to French Hill. Hero, with seventy other Ameri cans, they staked out claims, out of which thoy later vvero swindled by Canadians. The two partners then moved on to Llttlo Mlnook, vvheto thoy took up four claims, two of which they sold to tho Ilothschlld company for $S0,00O. With this lump to stntt on, thoy soon purchnsed other claims nnd now hnve nine claims at Dawson City, Haw port City, Birch City and Cnpe Nome, Hneh claim has n cabin on It It nnd Is now being worked on the roynlty plan. , Mr. Haggerty ulso owns a mine In Hast Oiegon, near Baker City, the ma chinery of which alone cost $SO,000. At this mine the gold bearing ledge Is fourteen feet thick nnd Is n true fis sure vein, the nssays of which nvcr age from $5 to $G n ton. Just previous to coming home ho purchnsed out right for $35,000 nn electrlo ear line lending from linker Cltv to the teiwn where his mine Is located, Tho line Is six mllen long nnd hits five cars. Mr. Haggerty brings with him num erous specimens of the gold-bearing stone from Alaska. One specimen weighs 31 pounds nnd Is known ns a fiec gold tock. Ho claims it contains $300 vvoith of puio gold. Mr. Hag gerty Is awaiting the nrrlvnl from Oregon of n bag of gold ore weighing lfiO pounds nnd which will yield 00 per cent, gold dust. Haggerty speaks wall of tho pros pects of Pennsylvnnla men In Alaska. Ho says thev seem better able to stand the weather conditions nnd tho hnrdshlps of tho country, In other words they "have good staying quali ties." He Intends to remain here for six weeks nml will then return to Baker City, Oregon. His family will remain here for tho present nnd will later Join him nt the above-named cltv. While hero Mr. Haggerty Intends se curing power of attorney and will stnko out claims for his Plttston friends. TORNADO AT TUNKHANNOCK. Telegraph.
