COUNT! 18 GETTING INTO LINE Thrca Aaplrarit* Ara Now in the Field For Second Place on tha Ticket and Each of Them la Quit# Hopeful. (Special Correspondence.» Philadelphia, May 20. These are busy tiroes with the active Republican workers throughout the state. Primary elections are being: held for the selection of delegates to the Re publican state convention and a most aggressive canvass for the nominations to be made at Harrisburg on June 11th next is attracting widespread atten tion. The three leading candidates fort ie governorship. Attorney General John P. Elltln, former Lieutenant Governoi L. A. Watres and Judge Samuel W. Pennypacker, each has a host ot friends at work and most strenuous campaigning is being resorted to in the struggle for delegates. Up to date it is "any man's race," but developments within the next ten days may alter the conditions and g'.vt) an opportunity to make a fairly re liable prediction as to the probable winner. ELKIN PUSHING AHEAD. Mr. Elkin s friends have reason to be pleased with the headway he has n.a tc during the last week. In a contest be fore the people with the name of each candidate, Elkin and Watres, primed on the ballot, he defeated Mr. Watres in the Northumberland county pri maries by an overwhelming majority The Elkin men were on the aggvessi vo from the outset and planned their cam paign carefully and thoroughly. Mr. Elkin visited the county and made \i. addreaa to the voters. When it became manifest that the Elkin men were go ing to win Mr. Watres concluded not to make a speech in that county, al though he may accept invitations to go elsewhere before all 'he delegate elections shall be held. There was a hotly contested B:iu£S'. e in Schuylkill county in which Mr. El kin's friends claim to have won five out of the eight delegates. Their oppo nents will not concede more than tour to Elkin. In Dauphin county the El kinites will get six of the seven dele gates. They also got three in Arm strong and one in Forest. The return judges in Mercer eotuity held a meeting during the week and adopted resolutions instructing tho three delegates to the state convention from that county to vote for Mr. Elkin. The county convention had previously simply indorsed Mr. ftlkin's cant'' 'acy, without "instructing" the delegate®. WORKING TOR PENNYPACKFR. Members of the bar and other ad mirers of Judge Pennypacker hwe taken hold of his campaign in Phila delphia and are flooding the state with literature sounding his praises and urg ing his nomination for governor. A public meeting of leading citizens uf the Quaker City is booked for this week and strong resolutions commend ing his candidacy have been prepared and will no doubt be adopted. Judge Pennypacker is generally respected bv his fellow citizens of Philadelphia, re gardless of their political afllliatif ns. He is looked upon as a most ex-'el'eut Judge and a brainy man. He has cer tainly reason to feel proud of the in dorsements he has received from rep resentative and influential citizens of his home county. A committee, which has charge of the campaign in his be half, will canvass every county in the state in his interest before the s«ata convention shall be held. Mr. Watres bagged another delegate lagt week, when the county commi*'e» of Monroe county met and elected one of his supporters as state delegate. Friends of Elkin in Monroe attemoted to have a resolution adopted instruct ing this delegate to vote for the Indi ana county candidate, but the resolu tion was defeated. In Crawford coun ty the supporters of Dr. Flood, who aspires to the lieutenant governorship, won the delegates to the state conven tion without opposition. The ooi nty committee had previously met and adopted resolutions giving Dr. Flood the privilege of naming his own cant'l datea for state delegates. Dr. Flood will make a canvass among the dele gates from the western counties with a view to having their united support in his candidacy for second place on the ticket. He will be confronted by the admirers of former Senator Will iam M. Brown, of Lawrence, who is also after the backing of the western delegates for the lieutenant governor ship. While these two aspirants for Lieu tenant Governor Gobin's shoes are working the west, a new candidate h.is been trotted out in the east. Mayor I-iewis, of Allentown. with the I.el'Kh delegation at his back, now wants to be lieutenant governor. His home coun ty newspapers have begun to boom him and some of his admirers have made a pilgrimage to Harrisb'-.rg to confer with party leaders there in bis Interest. There will be strong delegations of citizens from different parts of LehUh county, as well as Flood shouters from Crawford, and Brown boomers from Lawrence, to work up Interest !n the lieutenant governorship light In the convention throngs at Harrisburg. Major Brown, of Erie, who nsplres to the office of secretary of internal af fairs. starts out with his home county delegation solidly for him and he has a number of other delegations comir.lt ted to him. General Schall was Indors ed for this honor by the Montgomery delegation, which also went on record in favor of Judge Pennypaeker for governor. It is apparently too soon to venture a prediction as to the likely Winner for thla oSu John D. Reeser's Big Store Bank Block, Dushore, Pa. John D.

WANTS THE NEWS ITEM TO ISSUE A MILLION COPIES I l The Herald Representative is Wanted to Appear in Eagles Merc Where Pvnishmenl Awaits Him. * jtyiecittl to the Nun.- Item. What a blessed thing it is that we are incorporated a-a Borough! dust to think that it' we were not thus protected we would be living in Shrewsbury Township which the Herald reporter says is inhab ited in its primeval forests with deer, black bears, catamounts, loxes and all sorts ot game. We have been hearing strange noises of nights lately, and won dered what could oe the cause. Now we know thai it is the growling of the bears, the how ling of the catamounts and all the rest of them when they get to the Borough line and dare not come any far ther. All the citizens are grattul lor the warning, and Mr. Kehrer w ill order a car load of Winchesters, Krag-dornseus, Maxims and other fm arms, and another , car load ol ammunition and lixin's gen erally, more particularly the fixen's. A special meeting ot the Borough Council will be held and an ordinance passed to have the Light Company e\ tend its wires all around on the Borough line and a lamp w ill be fixed on each pole as these wild creatures are afraid of' light and will retreat from it at once. Your correspondent will not go out alter dark without a young man and a gun— especial ly tlie gun, although it is a areat satis faction to have a voting man always. The Herald man says the water from Hunters Lake is carried down a pipe four miles to the electric plant with a liill ot 940 leet to the mile: we submitted this problem to the professor of Mathematics at our L'niversily, and he says there must he something wrong somewhere ns that would make Hunters Lake about .">OOO feet al»o\e tide and lie has not heard tha the tide has got into a hole or anything of that sort. He wonders if the trouble in Martinique can have had anything to do with disturbing the bottom of the ocean. After we left the Professor we learned w here the trouble is. It seems that the correspondent got the figures misplaced and intended to any that "the aged and patriarchal Treasurer of the Light Co., Mr. Benjamin <!. Welch is 040 years old." and in this the re|iorler is probably correct, as he has been old ever since we knew him. So it is all right now. AVe have heard that one of the cata mounts over in Shrewsbury has started lor the Herald office to find that corres pondent for giving them away and start ing out the hunters after them. We are in sad distress as to what may happen as we think the writer is probably a young man—a nice young man. with his hair parted in the middle and such a bewitch ing mustache, and we are so very short of such comforts in our village. Won't the office please send him to our place where he can be cared lor. The Item oughtto issue about a mill ion copies of this communication so that all the intending summer visitors may get one and feel assured that thev will be entirely safe here it they do not go out side the Borough alter dark without the Herald young man or some other one equally desirable. If a million copies is to much for the Item, then at least three or lour should lie Rent to each hotel that the* may have them distributed with their booklets. It is really surprising how unreason able some people are —the railroad com pany is running a passenger train every day with a real passenger car. Some one was mean enough to say that it is disre putable looking both inside and out, and that the company uses it for passengers, baggage, express and everything else in cluding emigrants, somew hat odoriferous, and all such things as that, but it is to be hoped that the company will not mind such an unreasonable set of people. Why a" party of early visitors the other day actually hired I feorge Montgomery to take them down the mountain in his stage 1 rather than ride in a real passeng r car, | the idea!
