A correspondent in that excellent
newspaper, the Freeland Tribune, of
last Thursdy says this of young man
who is native of this town:
II met Harry E. Sweeney, of Drifton
the other evening. He had just re-
turned from the Worlds fair and was
enthusiastic in his praise of the great
exposition. Mr. Sweeney tells me he
will likely take another trip to Chicago
about October, and l believe that
month is one of the best to visit the
fair. The report of exhorbitant prices
for living and sightseeing that have
made so many people timid of ventur-
ing on IA tour to the White City are
not true. The rates for meals and
lodging are no higher than in any
other city and in some instances a
great deal lower Mr.. S. says two fell
lows can leave here together, spend a
week in Chicago, live as good as they
do at home, see everything that is
worth seeing and unless they ipend
their money injudiciously it will not
cost them cent more than s45 apiece >,

As you have already referred TO Hon.
w. M. Rapsher IS suitable and we'll
equipped candidate forPresident Judge
of the 43d Judicial District, / desire to
say that your suggestion meets with
hearty approval here in his former
home. He was the only man mentioned
for the Judgeship in 1890, when he de-
clined to be candidate from this
county. 1t seems to his friends here
that he is more available now than be
was at that time. He is too well known
to require an elaborate eulegy. He
has faithfully served the State in the
Senate Chamber, in the House of Re-
presentatives, as District Attorney and
upon the field of battle for the preser-
walton of the Union.
Every position of trust TO which he
has ever been elected, he filed with
ability and credit. Let us elect a
Judge for all the people regardless of
classes and conditions-free from
corporation and monopolistic in
tiuences. Let SenatorRapsher's friends
speak right out and make themselves
felt. The masses of the people will
vote for him. MANY WORMS.
