MATTERS OF A I'OLITIGAL NATURE
A General Review of tho Happen-
inns During the Week nt tho
County Seat Homo Pros
pective Candidates,
Special IIiHAi.n correspondence.
Pottsville, March IS, 1893.
ITU the new Judge,
Hon Mason Wetdnuui,
confirmed and commis
sioned, a new court
crier and permanent
tlpstave appointed, the
near Orphans' Court bill
killed beyond resusleitation, and tho crimi
nal court doors closed for tho month" un
usually early, everything hereabouts is as
quiet as a cemetery and the town has drawn
itself within itself, as It were, and gone into
a state of coma until something else happens
to waken It up. Nothing Is, therefore,
talked of but the prospective comity tickets
to lie placed in the field this year for row
oltices. Kvcry ollloer on tho hill, except that
of Sherlfl', is to bo filled next fall and wo
havo nlso to elect a now Judge. It Is over
onrly yet to spcculato as to tho competitors
for tho seat on tho Ilencli, but candidates for
tho other ofllcos aro cropping out so fast that
to keep up with tho procession mention must
he nmdo of somo of them.
In your town tho nanio of Benjamin II,
Sevurn is prominent for tho oilico of Com
missioner, and that of Charles D. Arter, of
Tremont is also named for tho same office.
Eithor one of those gentlemen would make a
good oilicial and as only 0110 of them can ho
elected It is hoped that they will make their
fight in tho Republican convention and there
let it drop. With oither Arter or Severn in
tho Commissioners' oilico tho taxpayers will
bo protected, as both are good business men
and would carry their capabilities into the
ollice.
A f-CltAMW.I) FOB TItEARUHHl:.
For County Treasurer, besides Michael
Dully, of Mincrsville, tho orator, and George
Folnier, of Shenandoah, a long distance
runner for tho place, Shenandoah presents
Senator Monaghan and Pottsvillo will pro
sent Alexander Faust, ho of tho wall-paper
syndicate. If Aleck goes iuto tho fight it
will not bo any grist to Folmer's mill, and
tho old fight of three years ago will bo
opened again and fought over. Senator
Monaghau's candidacy is likely to mix things
considerably Ho comes iuto tho field a
clean-cut and suitablo competitor to win
with, and if he stays in to tho finish ho will
bo ablo to name tho winner. Mr. Faust is
really not determined to run yTst, but ho is
seriously thinking it over, and whether ho
goes in to win for himself or not ho will bo
an important factor in tho fight. Ho has
some enemies to punish and may havo a
friend to roward. If I was a candidate for
oilico I think I would cultivate Mr. Faust's
good graces. When ho goes for a fellow ho
jumps in with both of his No. 10 shoos.
SOMK OTHEIl l'LACKS.
For the I'rothouotary's oilico Mr. Kirk i3
likely to succeed himself. Ho has no serious
opposition, unless wo except Mr, Jos. 11.
Nichtor, who is now studying tho writ dic
tionary nightand day so that ho can pass a
civil servico examination on tho names of
process, such as subpu-na ilucet tecum, tjnrilus
fernunti, hokypoTcy ico cream liberator,
cU-ctia. If he successfully patsos his exami
nation on a day to be fixed before the con
vention, Mr. Kirk may as well stay out of
tho race, because when Nichter once throws
his good right arm with a fist full of boodlo
into the ring look out for breakers.
Sincerely, Joe would make a popular Fro
thouotary. He would havo liquid refresh
ments on tap all tho time, and with Andrew
Schwarze, tho Hungarian hustler, as chief
deputy, there would bo no necessity to havo
any camphor around tho files of papers and
dockets to keep tho moths away. The only
thing against his chances, besides tho other
candidates, Moists. Kirk and Mlko Brcnnan,
is the fact that ho lives in Ilismark Seltzer's
ward, the Southeast, where also aro domiciled
Judgo Weidman and Clork Toole, who also
want to grace the Democratic ticket this fall.
Mr. Seltzer may bo on the Republican ticket
as candidate against Judge Weidman, and if
Toolo is nominated for clerk, what ollice will
tho convention give to Shenandoah and tho
rest of that vast Democratic territory north
of the mountain, except, perhaps, Treasurer
and Poor Director, if Mr. Nichtor is going to
scoop in tho chief cleikship of the civil
courts? Now this matter is beooiiiing a very
serious ono and should not be lost sight of for
a moment.
Tho Register, Recorder and other contosts
are lost sight of,l or swallowed up by the
others over which there is likely to be more
of a scramble. N.

ileaded that tho return of tho Constablo had
been received by tho Justico; that it is on
record and thero has been no proceeding ad
udging the return false; and thattheroforo no
oxocution could issue against tho Constable,
not, nt loitat, until tho rendering of a judg

Squiro Shoemaker decided that tho case
before him should proceed ami when Mr,
Pomoroy asked what Mr. Boland had to say
to justify his return Mr. Wadlinger said,
' Wo havo mado our plea; it is on record, and
that is our caso."

lug cause why the constable should not show
