Speaking OF an old friend the Strouds-
burg Democrat has this to say, 1--WE con-
gratulate our former pupil and tOwnsmau,
Mr.. T. A. Snyder, on his triumph in
Carbon Comfy. Though the opposition to
him was bitter and Fesorted to every sort
OF electioneering, yet he was elected on the
Grst ballot by majority of nearly two TO
one. Mr. Snyder has achleyed great pop
nlarlty in Carbon County, by earnest and
presistent labor for the schools, and merits
the confidence reposed 10 him by Carbon's
directors"
