Special Heham Correspondence.
Pottsville, Nov. 22.
HE smoke of tho recent
political battle of this
county hits hardly died
away before thcro bo-
gan to crop nut a new
batch of candidates for
noxt year's ticket.
Perhaps tho most prom
inent of thoso candi
dates aro representa
tives of tho Ecpiibll-
can party, who, building upon tho rocont
success of thoir party in tho last campaign
bcllovo that that success will bo continued
noxt year and consequently aro pluming
themselves for n contost, which they hopo
will bo successful in landing them in tho
olllcos to bo voted for in 169 i. Tho most
prominent among thoso peoplo may bo men
tlonod our fellow-townsman, Mr. William II
McQuall, tho Wost Virginia coal operator.
Having becomo a rich miner, and like unto
tho silver bonanza kings of tho West, ho
aspiros to shine in the halls of Congross.
William is a good follow, a social compan
ion, a kind and indulgent father and house
holder, but thcro is not mucli danger that ho
will bo tho nomineo of tho ltepublican party
noxt yoar, because already plans aro being
laid to send ono of tho brightost legal lights
of tho Bar to Washington, if tho thing can
bo accomplished by tho defeat of the Demo
cratic nomineo as easily and as surely as tho
majority of tho Republican ticket was elected
this yoar.
On tho other sldo of tho houso wo hoar
that Hon. James B. Reilly will not again
enter tho Hold for Congross. Jlo will grace
fully retire at tho clow of his term and tako
up tho thread of his logal practico whero ho
letgo of it a few yoirs ago, loaving the light
for C mgrosslonal honors to bo made by
Senator Bryan Monaghan, of your town, and
ox-Senator King, of Mahauoy City.
Following closo upon tho heels of this
political gossip comes tho intelligence that
John A. Iteilly, Esq., also of your town, will
aspire to succeed Senator Monaghan in the
Thirtieth Senatorial District. Mr. Iteilly
nomination will bo fcuro If ho makes tho
tight, but many of his friends foar that he
will change his mind beforo tho time comes,
I am lu a position to know that Mr. Iteilly
means to make tho effort tho supremo ono of
his life, and it is oxpected that tho Demo.
eratie convention of tho Thirtiethdistrict will
givo him a nomination by acclamation. If
Mr. Reilly goes in to win, having come out so
early and with his legion of friends, ho will
lead iu tho race from tho start, and the
nomination will bo his. He is a thoroughly
competent man for tho position and a con
sistent and a party-loving Democrat, and it
will tako tho strongest representative of tho
Republican party that can bo found to mako
any Inroads into tho largo Democratic
majority at his back,
Tho report of tho cases prosecuted by John
Brocnoeski against John and James Uiggins
and Thomas Boland, as publlshod iu your
edition of Monday last, Is pretty generally
correct, so far as It goes, but it doesn't go far
enough.
Tho Btory ai publishod is like tho play of
"Hamlet" when Uamlet is left out. It
should bo known and appreciated by your
readers that John Broenooski only arrived
In this country, and in Shenandoah, on the
11th of last March, Ho had only been four
months in this country when ho was so
roughly handled by tho constable and his as
sistants and $5.00 gouged out of him for taxes
for 1802, which ho could not havo owed, not
having been even a resident of this county
until March of this year. That fact was
proven by tho prosecutor himself and sub
stantiated by two othor witnesses, and should
havo gone in a publishod account of the case.
In justice to tho Polander, I now make it
part of this letter. This poor greenhorn had
just as "much right to bo protected by our
institutions as any other man in this country,
be his nationality what it may. N.
