WYOMING WILL FIGHT.
Senatorial Situation in 23d District
Becomes More Strained Daily.


| Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Tunkhannock, Oct. 4.-The Wilkes
Barre Record Of October 4 has the fol-
lowing to say in regard to the sena-
torial situation in this district:
1T Is reported that B. w. Lewis, of
Wyoming county, who was set up by
the Quay machine to antagonize the
candidacy of Mr.. Edmiston, of Brad
ford county, for state senator, has be-
come disgusted with the scheme and
will Withdraw. If Mr.. Lewis takes this
step he will show his good sense. Mr..
Edmiston was duly nominated by the
Republicans Of Bradford in a square
battle with the machine, and is en-
titled to the support of the party. If
Mr.. Lewis wanted to be a candidate
he should have gone before the people
OF the district as Mr.. Edmiston did. His
friends are surprised that he listened
for a moment to the scheme Of the
Quaytes."
The above statement shows a WON
derful ignorance on the part of the
Record in regard to the situation. In
the first place Mr.. Lewis was not put
up by the Quayites for the purpose Of
defeating Mr.. Edmiston, but on the
contrary was nominated as the choice
of Wyoming county at a convention
held at this place in March last, long
before Mr.. Edmistons candidacy was
heard of. In the next place Mr. Ed
miston did not go before the people
of the district in any sense. He was
the choice of Bradford county for the
office as Mi. Lewis was the choice OF
Wyoming county, Mr.. Edmiston was
not nominated as Il candidate at the
Wyoming county convention, nor was
Mr.. Lewis candidate at the Bradford
primaries, and the people of the dis
trict have had no opportunity to ex-
press preference between the two
candidates. The Record seems to think
that Bradford county composes the
twenty-third senatorial district. Last
ly, Mr.. Lewis does not intend to with
draw, but on the contrary goes to Har-
risburg today with his witnesses where
the contest for the nomination will be
decided by the court of Dauphin coun-
ty. II the contest is decided i'm favor
of the Bradford county candidate 1t is
the intention Of Wyoming to support
the regular Republican ticket, but MIR.
Edmiston, following the regulation in

THE WATER SITE.

City officials who have recently in
spected the Ransom tract, which is the
proposed site for the municipal water
dam, report that water in that vicin-
ity is very scarce and that Mother
Hardys creek doesn't look much like
it did last spring. They think artesian
wells are necessary to warrant such
an expenditure of money as will be
required to clear the property and
build a reservoir.
