POLITICS IN THE EIGHTH.
Prospects For a Lively Struggle in
the Congressional Fight - Mr..
Mutchler Already in the Field.

Special to the Scranton Tribune
Stroudsburg, May 27.-There is a
lively contest on hand in the Eighth
Congressional district, which is CONF
posed Of the counties of Monroe, Pike,
Northampton and Carbon. There Is
every inclination that eX-Congressman
Howard Mutchler, OF Easton, the well
known political leader OF this district
will seek the nomination.
The Prohibitionists recently, In con-
vention assembled at Weissport car
bon bounty, nominated Rev. Il. H.
Dixon, a prominent Methodist clergy
nan of Stroudsburg, who recently In
yoked the wrath of Almighty God on
Il new brewery which was not long
tince erected in Stroudsburg, when
prayer caused no end of comment
throughout the state, because the
brewery was subsequently slightly
damaged by an electric bolt.
The Republican party's candidate
can now only be surmsed; no one has
as yet decided to make the effort for
nomination and 1t is still an open
question whether eX-Congressman
kirkpatrick would again accept the
nomination.
In the Democratic ranks the same
old fight is again on. Congressman
Barber of Carbon, is making strenu-
Gus efforts for a denomination, but he
ls opposed (most bitterly, 1t Is said)
by John +. Lauer also of Carbon,
Who was an Independent Democratic
candidate against Barber two years
Mgo, but who withdrew from the ticket
DIT the eleventh hour. Lauer's friends
day that Barber gave his promise then
10 remain out of the fight this year,
and as the faction supporting lIauer
is on top in Carbon, the chances are
that the latter will secure enough del
agates to gain for him the conferrees,
In which event Barbers name VIII
not go before the convention.
In Northampton county but little at
tention has thus far been paid to the
congressional matter, but the fact had
been established, nevertheless, from
whisperings from political circles In
1Easton that Congressman Mutchler
would not be averse TO again repre-
nentlng the old Eighth, Pike and Mon
roe counties are quiet and Democrats
have yet to signify their inclinations
0r ambitions. But without doubt both
will have candidates and lively times
Dire anticipated when convention day
rolls around.
