THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK, Tho Frleln uf tlio Various Candidates for Coajrresslonal Hunori Are Doing Some KfTtfcttve Work In the Latter! Interests. The Small-pox Henre. Spesitl HiniLD M'retpondea, Pottsville, March 22. Tho pooplo at the county seat received a bad scare over the report that small-pox waB In their midst and have not altogether recovered from It. It whs found that tho victim was a man residing on the Cressona road and who had recently moved from Dan. villo. Thanks to the prompt and active steps of Health Oflicer Hosklus, who, by the way, is an old war veteran and for merly a resident of Shenandoah, the fears of the people were soon dispelled. He lost no time in enforcing the health regulations required by the ordinances and proved a strict disciplinarian. All uie leading itepubllcau politicians who want office, and those who are back ing them, are on their good behavior now. Mo one would think for a moment that any dissension existed in the ranks. Perhaps there is none, but before passing an opinion on that point I prefer to wait and watch developments. "Johnny" Shoener continues the favorito for Con gress. Losch has been very busy of late and can be seen frequently with W. Jack Whitehouse, who is Sam's best friend. The latter was seen In confidential con versation with ex Sheriff McCabo tho other day and this has led to a report thnt the two nave hitched horses JlcUane to work for Sam's nomination for Congress and Sam to put in his best licks for Mc Cabe'H nomination for Sheriff.

Murt Qulnn has a crow to pick with Congressman Heilly and it is said he will give that gentleman some trouble. Tho new daily newspaper project hero has developed a lnrge number of Idle nowspaper men and printers. The county seems flooded with them. Messrs. Kinney ana L,awior have hundreds ol applica tions and new ones come in with each mail. Whist I I'll give you something on the strict Q. T. Zerbey, of the Itepubllcan, was shocked and verv much chagrined when he heard the result of tho Herald trial. The verdict In that case was about as near right as n jury of twelve intelli gent and disinterested men could get it. The borough had no right to complain. Had its reDresentatives attended to their business by learning what tho advertise ment would cost before giving it to the paper mere wouiu, in an probability, nave been no law-suit in connection with tho matter. A mistako was mado bv the borough officials, and there is no getting away from that point. Mr. Burke, Shen andoah's rising young lawyer, added another feather to his cap by the manner in which he conducted the case for the HEliALD. Tho result was n full vindica tion lor Mr. lloyer.

Some of the boys were old offenders and after receiving a severe and well-deserved reprimand from the Justice were com mitted to the lock-up In default of pay ment of fine. The men stated that they were looking for employment, and being of respectable appearance, were liberated on the payment of line nnd costs. Georgo Heines, tho well-known local comedlnn and vocalist, met with a singu lar experience whilo walking on Chestnut street, Philadelphia, recently. George had never been out of the county before and naturally found much to feast his eyes upon in the Quaker City. Whilo in the neighborhood of the post office he stepped toward what appeared to be nn open store door, when his eyes were sud denly riveted upon a llguro the counter part in face and clothes of himself. "My twin brother!" thought George, grently surprised and cordially extended his hand to greet him, when it came in contact with tho chilly surface of a plate-glass mirror. George B. Yiengst, the well known West Centre street butcher, has mado what is probably one of tho best records in the county for killing nnd dressing stock for mnrkct.

Tho local detcctivo force nre looking into the matter but have as yet discovered no clue. Dr. J. Garrett Mertz, the West Centre street oculist, says there are many people in Muhanoy City suffering with poor sight wnicu in many cases may bo at tributed to the electric light. The bril liant glare is too powerful for most eyes anu causes a weauness ot tno optic nerves. Dr. Mertz is treatlmr such cases with great success and makes but moderate charges.

Commonweal Army Said to Have Recruits Here. THE LUZERNE MOVEMENT Men In Town Inlltienced by the lie pints From Hnzleton, Hut Thej Are I'ariltd ui to How They Will Salnlut Daring the Mnrcli to Wmhlnctoii, The General Coxoy doctrine seems to have secured a foothold in this town. A number of men who were assembled in Justice Toomey's office to-day said they had organized and Intended applying to the General for n commission. They said five hundred unemployed men could easily bo secured here and as many more could be secured down the valley. When asked about their Intentions tho men said they proposed to march to Washington to demand employment from tho national administration, which Is this policy laid down by General Coxey. The story sounded very nico until tho reporter asked how tho army would subsist ou during the time It woiwi take to march to Washington and tho question seemed to make a big rent in tho bottom of tho calculations. .At this point a bystander became In terested and said it was the question of subsistence which would kill the army. It is natural to suppose that Hie unem ployed men are without means nnd they can hardly expect tho people along the route to keep tho army In provisions, so tho only alternative they will have will bt to put it plainly to steal. When Justice Toomev was asked wlint he know about the movement he said he believed some men had been inttuencud by the reports from Luzerne county. At iinzieion, it is said, a man named W. Afttor Evans, claims to have been com missioned bv General Coxev to nrirntiizn a Pennsylvania detachment of the Com monweal army and says he has threo hundred men already organized. HenUo claims that a man named William Cassidy, at Tomhlckon, Is said to have one hundred nud fifty men ready for the march. General Coxey was formerly a resident of Danville nud is well known In Hnzle ton. l'.vans is a relative of Coxey's wife. One First ward resident took a very philo'ophical view of the situation tills afternoon. He said "I've got bunions nud before I would undertake to walk to Washington I would want a contract for wages during the tramp. As my son, Dan. says, Washington Is quitenstep and the time lost in sitting down on the way would eat up all the profit." MORE CONTESTS. The PrUon Slay U.optve Sinn ATore Viola- tur. of Election Iviwi, It is n cold day when Schuylkill county Is without an election contest. Yesterday A. W.

They propose to contest the election of thoso declared elected by majorities of two votes and upwards and the jail doors may open to tne members ot the spring election board. Tho candidates, whom It is alleged, were elected on fraudulent votesnro Peter Haverty, Supervisor; John Brennan, three years, nnd Frank Csrry, one year, for School Directors; John Currnn and Will inm Holly, Auditors. It is strangely asserted that open fraud against the suffrngo was also practiced in Xorwegian (Curry's) township.
