FREELAND, PA.. JULY 17, 1893. !
WORLD OF POLITICS.
Not Much Noise Above the Surface, Hut
Lots of Quiet Work ltolng liotie.
In a month and a few days more the
Democrats of Luzerne county will meet
to name their ticket for next November.
So far the politicians and candidates
have been exceedingly scarce in this
part, yet the blossoming out of delegates
in nearly every district in the vicinity
proves that the office-seekers are not
sleeping. That a large amount of quiet
work has been done already can be
easily seen. It is rather a hard task to
keep track of the many candidates in
the field. The crop, according to a cal
culation made on Friday by the Kern
dealer, includes twelve who want to he
commissioners, two for treasurer, two for
register, and one for controller. This
is on the Democratic side. Republican
candidates are not so numerous, but
their convention will have no trouble
in filling the ticket.
For commissioner Thomas Smith, of
Milnesville, will probably he one of the
Republican nominees and George Rimer
or P. T. Norton his colleague, The
Democratic ticket may be Edward Burke,
of Pittston, and Owen Fritzinger, of
Freeland, or Tom McGraw, of Beach
Haven; or it may be Tom Dullard and
Charles Honeywell, of Plymouth, or
Honeywell and John Helferty, of Haz
leton. A strong effort will be brought
about to defeat Dullard, but he may
pull through in the convention.
Sam Boyd, of Wilkes-Barre, will get
the the nomination for controller with
out any great trouble, providing the
Leader is not successful in bringing out a
candidate who will be a man of extra
ordinary strength. Boyd, however,
seems to fill the bill, and it will require
considerable influence to heat him.
Three candidates are looking for the
Democratic nomination for register of
wills John J. Brislin, of Sugar Notch;
P. C. Campbell, of Shickshinny, and
Stanley Davenport, of Plymouth. Bris
lin is already hooked as a winner in the
race.
No names have yet been mentioned
for the nomination of county auditors,
and even though it is not a high-salaried
sinecure it is good for three years and
pays a few dollars per year. It is gener
ally looked upon as a stepping stone to
something higher in the court house.
The Democratic county convention
will bo held on Tuesday, August 22, and
the Republicans have fixed their date
for Wednesday, September 9.
Whoever the new controller may be
he will be given such a chance to distin
guish himself as no other man has ever
had before in the history of Luzerne
county. lie will also find a sufficient
power in his hands to make him a wor
thy rival of the czar of Russia. It is an
office full of opportunities for good or
evil, and the people should be exceed
ingly careful in their choice of a man for
this place. When the controller whis
tles every officer in the court house
from garret to cellar has got to dance.
The right kind cf a man in this capacity
can save Luzerne county $40,(100 the
very first twelve months he is in office.

In Lehigh county a new species of the
bug family has appeared and is killing
the potato bugs of that section at a rapid
rate. The farmers of the county have
hailed their debut with delight, as the
visitors do not eat the crop and their
only object in life seems to be to exter
minate potato bugs.
