facts were just as they preaonted them the
viowors would havo had very littlo troublo
in deciding upon a report at once, but
when some of tho Republicans asked
questions regarding tho correctness of the
Democratic maps and figures thero was an
uproar and tho viowors had difficulty In
maintaining order. Some of tho Demo
crats wanted to muko affidavits, others
wanted to bet, and not a few seemed do
slroua of "scrapping it out." But there
was no blood shod. Ono thing is certain
tho sense of justico which seema to fit the
Democratic side of the houso is not, for
tunutely for tho country, what is strictly in
accordanco with equity. Tho Democratic
idea of justice seems to bo this : "Here
are our maps and figuros. They are cor

Accept ours, or fight."
The viewers listened to the statements of
all sides patiently and tben took all papers

POLITICAL POINTS.
Local, County, fstuto ml National Themes
Considered,
Brumm Is getting In his work. Ho baa
a united ptrty at hit back tbis year and
ought to win.
David Martin, of Pbilxd lphia, Senator
Quay's friend, is installed at Republican
headquarters In Now York City as at-
distant to Chairman Carter, nnd ex-Senator
Piatt has been n visitor at tho headquarters,
This doas nut look much like tho ''sulking"
in which, it has boon so freely predicted,
these experienced politicians would con
tinue to Indulge. In the Republican ranks
just now harmony is spollod with a big U.
Candidate Losslg, for Director of the
Poor, hus been doing some effectivo cam
paigning already. Ho is going to get there
with both feet.
A great deal of clerical work is being
done at the Republican county headquar
ters and in a fow days all tho preliminary
arrangements for a hot and effectivo cam
paign will he completed.
Squiro Coyle, Republican candidate for
the Logialature, is a bard worker and our
prediction is that ho will have tho largest
majority of any person ever elected to the
Legislature from this district.
J. H. James, Esq., expects to beat his
record of n former campaign when ho de
feated P. M. Dunn for the District At
torneyship. Harry is a hustler and isn't
leaving the grass grow under his feet. He
makes new friends whorever he goes oid
ones ho has plenty.
It is predicted that, under the new ballot
law the vote in this county will fall shjrt
between 1,000 and 2,000.
Senator Keefer has no fear of defeat this
yoar. His friends of the past Kill stick as
close to him as before.
