Our Salisbury COrrexpO \ deuce


The tobacco market was rather lively
last week. Between Lancaster and our
local buyers, quite number OF crops have
been disposed Of at fair prices. Salisbury
has several dealers in the weed. Messrs.
Worst & Shertz, packers at Springville,
being the most extensive dealers, they
have SO far bought about 100 cases. Mr..
John Wilson of SpringviIle, and B. :. Wei
Ter of White Horse, also are buying some.
Mr.. Weller, bought crop from Franklin
Ross a few days ago over which there ap-
pears to he some difficulty. Ross deliver
ed the crop to Weller, received his check
for tie amount, and a few days later.
Weller resOld the Ross crop and delivered
it to Lancaster when it weighed some 4OO
pounds less than he had paid Mr.. Ross.
Quite mistake to he made in less than
1000 pounds Of tobacco. We have not
heard how the matter has been adjusted.
Messrs. Worst 4 ShertZ are putting adj
t!iticnal force on in their packing establish
ment, and are packing superior article,
having bought some Of the finest crops in
the township.
The Repu 3iican primaries took place on
Saturday last at the White Horse, and re-
suited in the selection of the following
ticket Road Commissioner, Peter Esch
Constable. Samuel Bowman; School Di-
recturs, Christian Kaufman and Henry
Eaby: Assessor, lIervey Shimp. The
principle fight was for Road commissioner,
ther.: being four contestants in the field,
and .lr. Escl, being Il third termer, but he
was more i',rtunate than the third term
candidate at Chicago Peter received al
most as many votes as his opponents
combined Being German and very
Jrft faI.g
last June when reminded Of his
opposition, made this remark eff
dc people want Patcr for dc dird
derrn den I'ater goes in, and it dc people
not want i'a,cr. or Il dird dcrm den Pater
goes ont. tut yoo will find oud day de
beople goes woiin' for Patcr.' And Pc
,er's predictions proved true. The people
will have t" tr't out Il strong horse, or
else keep "n electinS Peter. We would
recommend Garfield to give Peter a cab
met Office: 4 furci1 IN mission, for instance,
so as t" give some other royal representa-
tive chance in Salisbury. or surely there
will he IL stampede in the ranks of the
stalwarts. Frank should have show.

and found baby si'ugly wrapped up lying
