were placod at work to remove the
debris and this has been continued

POLITICAL POINTERS.
Tho Democratic politician* of town
began this week to look up the chances
of victory at the coming election and so
far their investigations have been very
satisfactory. The candidates are accept
able to the party at large and have also
a large following in the Republican
ranks. As the borough is quite close
on party lines, the Democrats feel that
their superior ticket should win.
Henry Beineman, of East Mauch
Chunk, and D. B. Briehof, the respec
tive candidates for poor director and
poor auditor on the Democratic ticket,
are touring the poor district. Mr. Beine
man some years ago served a9 a poor
director and has as clean, a record as
any man who ever held that important
position.
Foster township Democrats are lining
up their forces for a heavy battle.
There is no dissatisfaction of any kind
with the ticket and a full vote of the
party is assured on election day. The
leaders are confident of victory.
Luzorne county next fall will elect a
judge, district attorney, clerk of courts,
prothonotary and congressman. A
state senator and*a representative from
each legislative district will also be
elected.
A. H. Bleckly, of town, Republican
candidate for poor auditor, expects a
large complimentary vote in this vicin
ity.
For tho coming election 81,945 official
ballots will be printed for the voters of
the county, also 8,925 specimen ballots,
Wilson Campbell, Republican candi
date for poor director, spent part of
this week in town.

Ice Bridge—Niagara Falls.
The recent cold weather has caused
the forming of an Ice Bridge at Niagara
Falls, which is in a splendid condition,
and bids fair to remain longer than the
usual ice bridge. The scenery around
the falls is especially grand at this time.
Tho Lehigh Valley Railroad has a
most convenient train service from all
points to Niagara Fall.
