what he gets from the bargain in his bt
half which Jack Hiestand and Frank Esi
leman made with his brother at Cincinnati
in 1876.
They would like to shake him.
But he will not shake.
He has some followers in the sOli
Dutch districts, and, if the Bull Rim;
would centre on him, might poll a good vote
but its leaders fear he is foredoomed t.
defeat and they do not want to tie .t(
him and go down with him.
They declined to entertain the PROPOSE
ton of some of his friends to put s., OO
into apool,
If his candidacy is persisted in lIiestan(
and Eshleman must stick to him, but the.
fear he cannot win. The Bull Ring will b'
divided and conquered. 1t will be a scrul
race and johnson will win.
ii. G. Brubaker has a stronger support
on his own merits, to start with, than any
of the others. He is the best man for the
politicians to rally around to beat the ia.
vOrite with.
They are beginning to rally.
Several of the strongest politicians in
the county have encouraged him to come
out. They run very solid - districts.
His fathers old reserve forces will join III.
His own personal and professional stand
ing are elements of success and the chances
aIe that by next week he will SO success
fully concentrate the opposition to John
son in his behalf as to make him the lead
ing candidate and to win a rattling VIC
tory.
VIM. ID. Weaver is going to ''surprise
the people" with his vote. He is in the
field to stay; to win if he can, and, if not,
to poll such IL vote that next time he will
have vantage ground. He has been get
ting his work i'm with the school teachers
and directors and the old Normal students.
Watch out if he does not come to town
with 200 or ], ,5O0v votes.
Ncwpher will get a fair sprinkling of re-
spectacle votes all over the county, with
comparatively heavy lifts in Millersville
and Marietta.
\ slrewd politician, estimating Oh aNO.e
of 10000, says that if the election came off
to-day Johnson would get 5000, Davis g.,
000 Eberly 800, Weaver 200, Bruba!lcr
1,500 and Newpher 800. If Brubaker is
taken up as the man to beat Johnson he
will get $500, johnson 2,5G0, Eberly,
Davis and Weaver IN average of 200
each and Newpher about 400.
For Senator.
The straightest, cleanest fight is for
senator in the lower district. Mylin has
the prestige of success the backing of the
Bull Ring, a popular name, and many
friends. Rcinoehl is making the best fight
OF his life and has all the anti-Cameron
sentiment of the lower end in his favor.
lie is gaining strength and his friends are
sanguine, but to win he must leave Lam
caster with 500 majority. His friends say
he can do it if his opponents "do not put
money into the city, If
For Assembly.
The issue in the lower end is more deiin.
ite Oh the Legislature than in the upper
district. There are only five candidates,
all having had experience-as candidates.
Each pretendS to be ''1oins it alone, and
if the combinations arc made they are not
yet acknowledged. Gatchcll is of 4
feather that suits the Bull Ring better, and
Landis is pretty certain to have his cause
cspouscd 10y the Hog Ring. Peoples and
DrOsius have more natural strength than
either of them, and 1t necd surprise AoJOdy
to sec the latter both elected. Amos l..
Eshlcman has a taking name and a fair
field in the eastern end. He will largely
increase his vote of 1873.
In the upper district there are more than
dozen candidates, SO that a ''scratch
may easily win an unexpected result. Or
dnarily the old members would have the
advantage, but Gantz is weighted with his
bad record Oh the riot bill and larassed
on Jhis hanks 10y Harvey Raymond's candi-
dacy. The Bull Ring, in all honor and
gratitude, must help CAN'T and how can
they go back Oh such s. best worker as
Raymond? ID. ID. Courtney has made 4
vigorous canvass and has a large business
acquaintance. The very general vote he
will receive may pull him through. c. L.
Hunsecker occasionally gets through.
Johnson Miller is the kind of man the
Ne,r Era would like to see rewarded.
Snader will poll good vote from the Con-
cstoga to the Welsh Mountains Ebcrly
will be one of the leading candidates. Any
stiff. combination may win in this district,
and when such one is made the INTELLI-
GENCER will announce it. Anybody who
wins will not beat Courtney 10y large
majority.
Prison Inspectors and Poor Directors.
Little interest is taken this year in the
prison and poor house management, as the
IIog Ring now has control of both, and
even the election of Bull Ring successors
to the outgoing Bull Ringers would not
change the present condition of things.
For prison inspectors, however, the Hog
Ring will support George Urban and Cal
vim Carter; for poor directors, Martin
Kreider and either Nissley or JAG. G. Keller.
Miscellaneous.
Ed. X. Martin, of this city, and Abr.
Kline, of Mannheim, will be elected "curb-
stone" delegates to Chicago without seri-
GUS opposition.
B. f. Eshleman will make a vigorous
effort to be continued as county committee
chairman and the Nep Era will fight him
with intense bitterness.
On the question of instructions there
does not seem to be any doubt that the
bulk of the vote will be cast for Grow for
United States senator and for Blaine for
