The evening herald. [volume] (Shenandoah, Pa.) 1891-1966, 1893-07-22

Ex-Sherif Joshua Monroe Boyer, whose pole IL
not long enough for this particular poraimmon
this summer.
Mr.. Muldoon has engaged nice second
floor room in the Shssler building for his
headquarters and he can be found there re-
ceiving his delegates and the good reports of
his canvass when the ball opens in earnest.
Just now he can be likened to 21O racer
who has reached the first quarter pole neck
ahead in the lead By good management such
as has characterized his canvass thus far, he
will reach the goal the winner. During the
past week Muldoon travelled into some of the
upper and lower end districts and met with
much encouragement. Mr.. Folmer oanvassed
the east end, including Tamaqua, and paid a
visit to Middleport, New Philadelphia and
the "Krick," He is working hard and de
serves much better success than he is likely
to secure Mr.. Duffy is hustling too, and
may come into the convention with better
showing than he is now accredited with be-
ing able TO marshal
THE PUSHING PURCELL.
Mr.. Thomas Purcell, of Tamaqua, took a
ride down the country on Wednesday with
o. J. Aregood, who is a good all around work
er in two languages. O5man can tell good
story, sing lively song and laugh as heartily
as any man we know of and Purcell couldn't
have selected a better companion, Meanwhile
John J. Toole, the present incumbent, is not
idle. As he is no slouch as a campaigner. his
opponent will have to put in some big icks
to weaken him. Purcell has for his allies
some of the fellows who charge Toole with
unfaithfulness last fall and if Jack fails of
nomination he can attribute it to the silent
and effective work of some of these people
and their friends. The latter has secured
headquarters where also Recorder Scheurman
will hold forth on the day before the unterri
fed meet to parcel out the plums. l tell you
it is going to be red hot hereabouts from the
evening of the 29th until sunset on the 3lst.
All the available vacant and some other offices
in town are being secured for headquarters
and the hotels from the Merchants to the
Northeast will be crammed and jammed with
sweltering and wavering Democrats full dele
gates and partly delegates, their cousins,
uncles and nephews.
1t will be picnic and don't you forget it.
