THE NEXT CONGRESSMAN.

Mr.. EDIToR:-In your issue OF
December 29th, fnd an article un-
der the question, "Who shall be next
Congressman ?"
Now l would that l were so situated
that l might give an authorative ans.
wer to that question.
| think that beyond controversy,
Columbia county is entitled to the
representative. She has had but one
representative in nearly or quite fifty
years. Any representation she may
have had before, was before the divis-
ion of the county, and may with as
much propriety be charged to Mon
tour as to Columbia county. Since
the division Of the county there has
been at least two citizens of Montour
county elected to Congress by the aid
OF the Democratic vote of Columbia
county.
Northumberland county is at present
represented, and as there is no pros
pective candidate from Sullivan coun-
ty, we may, l think, very f.irly con-
slider the way clear for Columbia coun-
tv to furnish the candidate.
If this is conceded, the only ques-
ton will be, who shall be the man !?
The article allowed referred to names
three men as being suitable for the
place. First of all the Hon. C. R.
Buckalew, and without any i'll feeling
towards the others, should gladly let
the list end with his name for reasons
which / shall state.
Certainly there is no man to whom
Columbia county in her organized ca
pacity, is more indebted, than they
are to Mr.. Buckalew. A careful
scrutlng of the records of the county
at the time and shortly after the di.
vision of the county will verify the
above statement.
A goodly number of our citizens
can well remember the active part
which he took in their behalf during
the military occupation of our county,
when his own safety and personal ag-
grandizement mighl have been better
conserved by different course. His
official position at the time gave him
an influence which he welded in be-
half OF our citizens in manner that
makes him worthy of all honor.
HIS ability as statesman is un
questioned. He would make repre-
sentative of whom not only the district
but the whole country might be proud.
His integrity is unimpeachable. He
has never used his official position to
enrich himself, If all our pubic SER
wants were possessed with the same
amount of moral stamina, depleted
treasures would be the exception and
not the rule. c.

Another rich gold strike is reported
in the Black mountain north of Ell
Paso. The strike was made in the
Mormon ledge at the 200 foot level
where the vein suddenly widened to
five feet of solid ore which is yellow
with gold. The whole camp went
wild over it, as it proves beyond ques-
tion that the district is permanent
and that the veins enlarge and carry
more gold the deeper they go. Ell
Paso has the gold craze, and many
are leaving for the gold fields.

measured not less than l25 feet II
was nearly white and was followed,
seemingly, for quarter Of n mile by
shower OF sparks Ike llely tail,

thrown off. The air was stirred by
the passage Of the stone into wave
Of almost insupportable heat. fol-

momentum.
So bright was the light given out by

beloved with terror. II came from

rapidlty that 1t was visible only n few
seconds before 1t passed over the
town. II disappeared over the gulf,
and, reckoning from the curve of the
parabOla IL was describing, must have
struck the water thirty or forty miles
from the shore, II 1t was really only
four or five hundred yards above the
surface OF the earth, In which case 1t
was near Its journeys end.
