on the Packerton scales new styled
pair of Bullets, which works well, with
this exception it is nosier than the
old pair.
-Paymaster Wilhelm is getting used
to the new method Of paying, but it
takes much longer and is not as salts
factory as the old way, the check sys-
TEN is not as convenient. It is no
doubt a much better way for so large
system as the Reading.
The CARBON ADVOCATE will be rep
resented in this neighborhood here

duly authorized by this office to col
lect all money due us and to solicit

The store formerly occupied by L
S. Miller is for rent. Some live active
man would find it profitable to secure
it and open a general store. Packerton
is growing town, many people do
their buying in surrounding towns. A
new store would boom Packerton and
pay the proprietor.

management of the scales is under the
supervision of Alex Mitchell, Esq, Of
Wilkesbarre.
The denomination of the Hon. VIM
Mutchler insures the district an able
representative his knowledge and ex
perience in national affairs will bC
necessary in the great struggle for re
form. While every Democrat in thi,
county desired the nomination of thu
Hon. Allen Craig, man Thoroughly
honest, sincere, earnest and progres
sive, a Democrat under all circum
stances, yet the contest was waged anC
won by Mr.. Mutchler fairly, and sen
ator Craig can console himself anC
congratulate the Democrats of the dis
trict that their interests are safe in tn,
hands of MIR. Mutchler. Carbon ha
another chance, she can have Demo
cratic citizen of the county for repre-
sentative at Harrisburg, w, F, Biery
an ardent, able, trustworthy Democrat
Every Democrat opposed to Quay an
the methods by which he dominates il
A this state, can work for his defeat, b
