KEEP YOUR EYE The Democratic Army Preparing For Its Spring March. HOW THE WARD WILL COUNTS The Victorious Party Will Bap Two Seats In the Borough Council Many Now Residents In the Ward. It Is not too early to begin dlscussihg spring politics. At least no", so for the Republic ins, as the Democrats arc already on the move and are shoving along so actively that one is forced to the conclu sion th it there are some deep laid schemes on hand. The great trouble with the Republicans ot the town Is thatthey aro too easy going.. They never seem to look beneath the sur face, but think the opposite party is like their own idle, waiting fjrtho election season to arrive. When the time for action does come these Republicans find their party floundering around for suit able candidates and in their hurry to put tickets in the field they do not observe tlmt the Democrats are In their oamp helping to put up candidates that ennnot be elected. On the other hand the Demo crats are always organized and in touch with each other. They have a pretty fair understanding weeks in advance as to th kind of tickets will be nominated by their primaries and when the time comes to make the nominations they also have matters so arranged that no Republican influence can intervene. To say that the Democrats are now actually engaged in moving their chess man Into position for the Spring election may perhaps cause incredulous smiles in and about the borders of their camp, but there are n few existing facts which take some of the laugh out of the idea from a Republican standpoint. There appears to be a well regulated scheme on the part of the Deaiocrnts to capture the Second ward next spring. Almost every Democrat in the town who Is thinking ot chang ing his place of residence has his eye on that ward, und it will not take an army of them to bring about the desired change. The list of Second ward Demo cratic voters has been greatly increased during the past two or three years and many more names will be added to ic in the near future. Let us become a little more deflnlte aud get un inside view of the ratio of increase. The three Murphy brothers, saloonlsts, moved into the ward but a few weeks ago; ex-Chief Burgess Smith moved in this week; the three le.iry brothers of Win, Peuu and the four Galvlu brothers ot the First ward are at the thnshhold.if they do not get in before this appears in print. There yon havoa bunch of eleven good, solid Demo crats to help turn a Republican majority of less than fifty, and two Gouncilmen are to he elected in that ward next spring, one to succeed John F. Kinney, who moved to Pottsville, the other to mcceed R. W, Stout, whoe term will expire. It 1b none too aoon for the Ktpublio 111 to follow the example set by their Demo cratic neighbors by starting to move in spirit, it not bodily. Begley & Schoeuer's oyster bay, 11 West Centre street.

Mrs. Katherine Pappert, wife ot Syl j vester Pnppert, of South Main street, died this morning from paralysis, A COUNTY SEAT LETTER Review of Principal Events of the Closing Week. THE INSTITUTE A SUCCESS. The Future Sessions Will be Held Barly In November The "Journal" Vic torious In Its Bread War. Special IlBKAT.n correspondence. PorreviLLK, Nor. 10. Thethlrty-fccond annual Schuylkill County Teichers' In stitute closed here to-dny and next week the teachers will be at their posts again in their repective school house. The ses sions of the Institute just closed were ot a mostsuccessful character. Tnelectures and entertainments were of n high order. The experiment of holding the sessions earlier in the season also proved satis factory aud the plan will undoubtedly be followed in the future. It prevents a de moralization of the scbool work which must follow when the institute and CbrNtmus holiday seasons are close to gether. Most of the teachers favor the new plan. Thiv siy they oau make a belter showing for the olose ot the first fchnol term. The business men of this town reaped a harvest during the Institute. It was not so much what the teachers spent, but what was derived through their friends, who attended the sessions in large num bers and occasionally spent an hour, or two, in shopping. Then, again, the con vention of the School Directors of the county brought many shekels to the cof fers of the hotels and restaurants. Manager Ferguson, of your town, would be wise In booking "Princess Bonnie" for his theatre this season if It is possible. It had n crowded house at high prices here, It Is one of the latest und beat comic operas aud had an unprecedented run In Phila delphia this season and last. The Journal will announce to-morrow that It has won Its bittle for cheaper bread, and this is correct. A baker named Spaunuth has made the break and here- after will sell and deliver to any part of Pottsville'. Palo Alto or Port Carbon a 28 ounce loaf of bread for (1 cents. Tills is a reduction of 25 per cent, and the credit for securing it is entirely due to the persistent vigorous and sound-argument battle made by the Journal. The sentences which a numberof crooks received befo-e the court here this week should have a salutatory ellcct upon others and induce the parents aud guard ians of young pe pte to be more diligent in the enforcement of discipline, Among the young men sentenced were three from Shenandoah who, in .'ouversatlou with a press representative, sild that they owed their sentences of two years e.icii to the Influences of tlio winter shanty.
