the Fifth, the other city district. there is
trouble. Congressman A. c. Harmon has
the Republican nomination, but there is
much opposition to him. Martin, the in
dependent candidate has received the in
dorsement OF the Democrats. He may
wipe out Harmen's majority. At all events
he will greatly reduce it. The chances
are, however, that Hosmer VIII be able to
pull through, although his election is by
no means assured and may be classed as
doubtful. The Sixth district includes the.
great Republican counties Of Chester and
Delaware. Congressman Ward, Gamer
on man, was defeated for the nomination
by W. B. Everhart, present state senator
and an anti Cameron man. He will have.
large majority over J. Lewis Clydes;
Democrat. The Seventh district,
which includes Montgomery county
and a part of Berks. is Re-
publican by about 1900. Congressman
Godshalk will be succeeded by I. Newton.
Evans, the regular Republican nominee.
W. II. Fl. Davis, q county editor, will make,
good fight for the Democrats, but cannot
win unless something unforeseen happens.
The Eighth district, Berks county, is large
ly Democratic. There is a majority of
from 5000 to 5000 and Daniel Ermentrout
will be returned. Isaac McHase, his op-
ponent, will hardly know that he is run
hing on election day. The Ninth district,
Lancaster county. is just as largely Re-
publican as Berks is Democratic
A. Herr Smith will go back to

Lackawanna district there is trouble. The
district is now represented by Joseph
A. Scranton, editor of the Republican. Two
years ago he was elected because a
split in the Democratic party divided the
vote between Hendrick 3. Wright and D.
| W. Connolly. The district is naturally
Democratic by a small majority. This
| year the lines are drawn between Scranton
and Connolly. The result is doubtful. but
the choice in favor of Connolly, the Demo
cratic candidate. The Thirteenth is a
doubtful district, with the probabilities
favoring the Democrats. Charles n.
Brumm of Pottsville is the present Con-
gresham from this, the coal region of
Schuylkill. He was elected as Republi-
can Greenbacker by Cameron influence.
Brumm, this year has the Greenback nom
ination. As the Cameron works have con-

made no nomination against him. He is

candidate, Jno. w. Wetherell, has an ex-
cellent chance to defeat him. There is a
triangular fight in the Fourteenth district,
which includes Harrisburg, the home of
| Senator Cameron, Dauphin, Lebanon and
Northumberland counties comprising it.
Sam Barr, the present representative, is
Cameron's man, and was elected with $500
votes to spare. He would pull through if
Harry Mccormick, the Democratic candi-
| date, was running alone, but an independ-
ent Republican, John L. McCleary, has ap-

dependent vote. 1t reached 5000 in these
counties last fall, and will be increased at
least 1000 this year. Hence, Bars PROS
poets are pretty poor, and Mccormick will
be very likely to carry off the prize. A
triangular fight is also in progress in the
Fifth district, comprising Bradford, Wayne,
Susquehanna and Wyoming counties. G.

defeat him because he refued to
support Grant at the Chicago convention,
and preferred to vote as his constituents
desired for Blaine. It is only perfidy

carried out his designs, and after long
struggle, one Edward Overton, Cameron
henchman, was nominated. Jadwin
claimed that his defeat was broue hit about
by underhand means, and has taken the
field on his own account on his record as a
congressman. The district ought to have
about $500 Republican majority
Judwin will poll the bulk of the
Republican vote, but the split will
almost certainly elect G. A. Post the Dem
ocratic candidate. The Sixteenth district,
composed of Cameron, Mexican, Potter,
Sullivan and Tioga counties, is at best very
close. Two years ago r. ]. G. Walker, Re-
publican, polled 1850 votes to 1904 for
