have been received by the department
from the west by young men of ad-

after their arrival. 1t is proposed,
therefore, to send a recruiting officer

POLITICAL POINTS.

Judge Bechtel has announced his candidacy
and will seek the nomination for Supreme
Court Judge at the hands of the Democratic
state convention, and his friends have asssur
auces that he will lead in .he race. While
the Schuylkill Judge is candidate he will
make no scramble for the office. 1t is said
Boss" Guffey looks with favor upon Judge
BechtePs candidacy, and if this be true
Schuyllxill will be represented upon the

Judges to be elected, and the minority party
must be represented. And it can be truth
fully said that Judge Bechtel will honor the
position.
