to a fit of hysterical weeping.
Sprague, not being a medical man,

MR.. CoNNELL's CANDIDACY.

From the Wilkes.Barre Daily News.
There is no possible chance Of the election
OF Democratic senator. In no passible way,
hook or crook or shepherds staff, can such
thing he brought about Expressing, therefore,
the unbiased view, it is plain to be seen that
Mr.. Connell is no mean antagonist for the most
worthy foemnn. He is a man who has made
his way through the world thus far with Ger.
tain unmistakable signs ol triumph. All this
by his own merit. lie was not born with a
silver spoon hut he has secured whole set.
This routine of an active and successful bust
ness life has developed many qualities that arc
entirely admirable. Mr.. Connell has not had
time to. win his success through cheating his
fellows nor through denying other men under
him, around him and above him their rights.
lie has always been approachable and tolerant
and since his entry into politics he has exrm
pliicd broad qualities Of citizenship with high
intelligence based on common sense. These have
raised him so high in the estimation of those
who have watched his course that no opposition
OF any Importance has raised itself against him.
Mr.. Connclls ambition is entirely laudable and
1t has certain elements Of strength that could
be rendered far more imposing even than now,
and which would have to be seriously reckoncd
with
