With this ex ception that n very pronounced move meut is ou foot to Induce somo prominent and progressive Democrat to run for Con gress against Mr. Heilly there is nothing very new in the political field. As the time for the nominating convention to be held draws near, active leaders of both parties ore busying themselves with ticket-making and it is as usual, like eat ing peanuts, they never stop while there is h nut to crack. On tho Democratic side it has long since been pretty generally conceded tliat Congressman Rollly will be given a re-nomlnation for the asking. All efforts to induce n man with n light ing cnance to come out ngaiust mm, since the day when Mr. Murtha P. Qulnn was defeated for county chairman by Mr.- Stoffregnn. which retired several candidates for tho the honor,- Keilly has virtually been un opposed for the nomination, but now an other move Is being started to force tne convention to take somo ono else. All eves of the Reillv opposition turn ntrnln to Mr. Daniel Siiepp, of Tomaqua, but it win ue as iume as a ioriner euort ana some other man piust bo taken up if the frogs want a new king and by this wo do not mean Ex-Senator King, of Mahanoy City, either, because rumor has it he is in the Held for Senator again and will cross swords witn Mr. .1. J. irnney, of Shenandoah, for the Democratic Sena torial nomination in the 30th district. It is too late to oppose Mr. Reillv for n nomination things have become so nriniy crystanizea and it may as well bo recorded now as later that he will be tho standard bearer of his party this year again. If any particular straw was needed to show how this breeze was blowing just follow the attack made on him in this town and you will need no other proof. If-bo was to be beaten In convention they wouldn't worry so much about hiiu, hut would reserve their ammunition like the minute men nt' Bunker Hill until they cuuiti see tne wuues oi tne enomys eyes in tne uig ugnt to come. FHANHV IN THE FIELD. Another Richmond Is In tho field for State benotor In the person of alienac doith's progressive citizen, Mr. James J Kraney. His name rhymes well to oraluy, and that is tho kind of a man he is known to be, Report came here from Miihauoy City that last Monday, while hi thottown, Mr. Franey announced him self to friends as a candidate, In to the finish, and almost contemporaneously came tho intelligence that Ex-Senator ivuig was also out again ror the same thing. Franey is a little ahead, though, f-ay a neck, and he may be like unto the nr. nice horse lu the lastlirooxlyn handi cap, laying low and readv for the iumii If Mr. King is in earnest for himself, nml he generally Is, look for a good heat in this contest with Splese ns a probable favorite like Clifford was at Brooklyn, but far in the rear. Mr. Franey largely Interested in the i.oiumuia orewery as ue is, Knows wore about Dolltics than he dries uhnrit. hiw He has always been a temuerate man who attended to legitimate trade and he never pnueu uimseii on nuy particular accom- pusumem in uiscerniue uiiierent urnmis of beer, So it was he was so easily fooled when a joker in Mahanoy City tho other day palmed off Kaier'sbeeron him for his own Columbia liquid and as he quailed a few very small ponies and extolled the beverage to the skies, believing the bar tender to be a thorough gentleman who wnnl.ln'f il,itr t.tn1.o ..n1-alaM, l, ..... . simply nnd unconsciouslvexhibltmtfhlm- self as an innocent and occasional in- dinger in the frivolities of life, who did not aspire to be known as nn expert on drinks. He cares more for the substan tialities of success than such minor aud insipid things as sampling beer. ur. rrnney win bo a strong candidate, mark ye. if ho takes off his coat and rolls up his sleeves, as he Is very apt to do. SCOTT on DAVIS, which t The sudden, untimely and regretful death of citizen J. M. Glick. of Glrord- ville. removed a man of uniform trnnri character nnd standing from the business and social world, as it did a very prom inent candidate for Sheriff. Always n stalwart and earnest Republican, Mr. Glick would have been a worthy candi date to name had he lived, but his death lias turned over the Held to Mr. Alex. Scott, of Frackvllle. and Hon. Ellas Davis. of Broad Mountain P. O. It will bo Scoit and Davis for it now with a few varia tions In the shape of n few political figmies wno nngut as wen withdraw, low happy the Republican party could be with either were the other dear churmer away, Mr. Scott appreciates printers' ink and its uses and Mr, Davis will have to humn himself if he wants to outdo his antagonist in getting his name beioro tne people, Jjut then Kilns nas been so well known so long that he does not need, he thinks, cards of such great niiij. iio fluuum icu.cuiu.il iivj nc.cip that he is a, kind of a lob lot printer him self and ho ought to iiave a few slmplo announcement cards from every printing olllce lu the county. Variety is the snaco of life, you know. SEMPER IDEM THOMAS. While all those changes havo taken place in tho political arena, the genial, Democratic, always-the-same Thomas J, Higgins, is saying nothing, but sawing wood. He has distanced the other nsnlr- nnts In the race and all ho has got to do is to keep up his present very creditable notions nnd lie will curry off the prize lu the Democratic convention. With Cant- well and 1 .ant; ton bucking against each other and MoKernnn in the wrong looality to wlu, Mr. Higgins has nothing to fear. I urn told Israel Anplegate has llown the track and will not be out, or lu it, just as you please. This will give the Unlotis to Higgins ond his opponents may as well know It now. SOME OT11KR FELLOWS. David II. Llewellyn, so well and favor ably known here at his old homo, wos announced somo time since for Director of the Poor, if one can judge from his Eopularity hero in Pottsville ond suburbs e Is the most practicable and tho very mm th Republican party should take up for thatofllce. Ho would know what is going on If he gets to tho Almshouse in all departments, and he would see that every Bilbaltern in o job did his work, or he would know tho reason why, Mojor.jJohn F. Finney Is now opposed for legislature In the First district by Joseph Wyntt. of Shenandoah, and Will lam It-yulildleton, of Maizevllle. The Major hid reached the quarter polo before these others started and if ho keeps his lead ho ?vlll win, but ho must keep his lead audlno one knows what that means better than the Major. Hon. Aim J. Coyle is still unopposed for the Smote in his party nnd ho is only talked qt now ns n euro winner. In thekFourth district no one Is surer of n nomination nud election than G. A. Schrlnkybf Pottsville. Mr. Kennedy uiny want to Ito back, but if Mr. Schrlnk's friends sfand by him, Schrlnk will be the man on tlio ticket from Potts-ille with Ixsoh atlpome one else from the lower end nndiSmnnuel Jenkyn from Porter.

The Lakosido Electric Hallway Is doing nn excellent business for a starter, in fact the returns from fares have been so grati fying that tho company will run four cars regularly as soon ns two oddltlonnl turn outs can bo made, which will be accom plished within tho next fow days. Onoot tho cars mado returns for 330 passengers on a ulue-hour run Wednesday. Only two cars nro run on tho branch at present, one leaving each terminus simul taneously.

The pleasuro tourists over the road am quite numerous and they Hud the trip a delightful one. The journey over the hills from Yatcsville to Mauauoy Olty affords a splendid view of nil parts of tho Mahanoy valley us far west as Ashland, which in itself Is a great attraction and a trip up and down the heavy grades and through the gullies reminds one of a ride over the famous Switchback.

If a candidate for Congressional or Legislative honors Is approached ns to how ho stands on that greatest of all questions, namely, tho liquor traffic, he is greatly perplexed nnd after giving nn ovasivo answer might say that it Is only a side issue; that ''It will be time enough to bring that up when this tariff question is settled."
