1t is predicted that George Gould will
be candidate for representative in Con-
gress from the Second New Jersey Dis
trict. Young Mr.. Gould seems to be a
man of a good deal Of common sense and
public spirit, hence there is no good rea-
son apparent why he should not aspire
to Congress, and make a very good rep
resentative, too. The only thing against
him is his politics. He is a Republican.

The current fruit season bids fair 10
become memorable as one of the most
bountful in many years. Almost every
seaeonable fruit is plentiful at present,
and prices are so moderate as to make it
possible for about everybody to indulge
the taste for fruit The peaches that are
coming to market now are particularly
luscious. the flavor being all that could
possibly be desired. Figs, too, are begin
ming to make their appearance. There
probably never was a season when the
demand FOR this fruit was fully supplied,
and the present season will not prove an
exception to the rule. Prices, therefore,
are pretty strong. A remarkably large
crop this year is that of huckleberres.
For more than two weeks the supply has
been very large and the price low, and
they are still coming In quantities. Melons
and cantaloupes are now at their best,
with a plenty TO select from.
