The "sky.light" played a small part in the
present campaign. shortall led a too lively
chase, and Toole had to keep on the ground
| floor.
| The Polish ard Lithuanian voters Of the
county are more intelligent than the Demo-
Gratis gave them credit for. For number Of
years they have been fed upon promises, but
when they were refused representation
upon the borough police force they decided
to desert the Democratic party and vote the
| ticket that contained the name Of one Of
their own nationality. TO do otherwise
would be against their own interest as well
as base ingratitude.
One remarkable feature about the present
campaign is noted in the fact that all factions
are working in perfect harmony. The result
will be apparent in the increased Republican
vote tomorrow.
! The Democratic newspapers and candidates
! style Candidate Bierstein as No 36. The
| latter's Polish and Lithuanian friends will
resent the insult in no uncertain tones at the
ballot box.

and Lithuanian votes in the county, and
nine tcnths Of them will support the Repub'
lican nominees.
Every man for himself appears to have
been the rule in the Democratic camp. 1t is
acknowledgment of their forlorn hopes.
We've got them on the run.
The Republicans of Shenandoah are solid
for the ticket, and to-morrow's vote will
prove the assertion.
Jack Toole is defeated candidate. Al
signs point that way.
Our ROSTERS are fattening for the jubilee.

afiIiation are not anyway near the mark

him, will the Doyles kindly inform a suffer
ing public where his opponents (Mulholland
orthography will land him after the presen
campaign Of education?
Vote the straight Republican ticket. Their,
is danger in a split" ticket, besides tn,
candidates upon the Republican ticket, from

and are superior in every way to thei
Democratic opponents.
Vote the straight Republican ticket to

When General Pope and his army met tn
rebels at Bull Run, Fitz John Porter will
1900 troops refused to go into battle whei
ordered and the Union army was beaten
The blood of thousands of Union soldiers
on the hands of that traitor to this day an,
! no act of Congress can replace it. Tomorrow
the Republicans of Schuylkill county will
called into action. If they march to tn
polls like men the enemy will be routed fror
every office to be contested for. If we hav
enough Fitz John Porters, we can be defeated
The good Democratic times now upon us wit
% more of it coming ought to warn every Re
! publican to be at the polls. Leaving out tn

. question of dollars and cent? there is not
/ farmer or mechanic, or merchant, or manu-
. facturer, or a common day laborer who ha
l made one.half as much in any work for tn
' last year, as he can make by going to tn
e polls tomorrow and voting the Repubica
ticket.
