first district. He was beaten in the Demo-
cratic convention by Chas. E. Boyle, whe
will be elected over Chas. e. Seaten. a
Greenbacker, supported by the Repub-
licans. Fayette, Greene and Westmore-
land counties compose the district The
Pittsburg district, the Twenty second, is
Russell Erretts. Errett has been in con-
gress for three terms, is a we'll known
Cameron henchman, and is stalwart to
the backbone. His district is
in doubt this year. for
the simple reason that P.ttsburg is run
ming over with independent voters, who
are striking at everybody who has ma
chine about him. Errett's Democratic
opponent is JAS. II. Hopkins, who was de-
feated for. the gubernational nomination
by Patterson by only bare majority.
The district is Republican and the chances
lean toward Errett, but he is not safe by
any means. Thos. H. Bayne will go back
from Allegheny county, the Twenty-third
district. He is one Of the oldest men in
the delegation, and is a Republican.
and violently opposed to Cameron,
Tho tried to defeat him for denomination.
b It the Independent feeling was so strong
that The Cameron people were beaten in
disgrace. The Democrats have made no
nomination against him, and he is en-
TREY without opposition. The Twenty
fourth district is composed of Beaver,
Lawrence and Washington counties. Con-
gresham Shellenberger has been laid out
in convention by 6. Y, Lawrence and Cam
eron Republicans. Shellenberger was
Cameron's choice and Cameron made
bitter fight for him. The stall
warts may attempt to throw
Lawrence by voting for his Democratic
opponent, j. G. McKomby, but Lawrence
will be elected. The fight in the Twenty
fifth district is very close. It is composed
OF Clanon, Forest, Armstrong, Indiana and
Jefferson. Gen. H. White was beaten two
years ago By Mills Grove, Democrat. White
is pitted against J. D. Patton. Patton;s
election is almost certain enough
to be placed in the sure column. Con-
gresham S. Miller, Republican, will prob
ably be returned from the Twenty sixth
district, composed of Butler. Crawford
and Mercer counties. although j. Fl. Cald-
well has fighting chance. The Twenty
seventh and last, Verongo and Warren
counties, belongs to the Republicans and
NJ. Brainerd will defeat P. p. Plumer.

eight Democrats in the present delegation.
Some of the districts are so close that the
election may hang on a few votes. It is
safe to count on gain of at least five
Democrats.
