Young Shiras for Congress.

II seems not unlikely that Mr.. Justice
Shiras will be represented in the next
Congress by son. George shiras third.
The Justices son is the candidate of ths
Independent party in the Twenty ninth
district of Pennsylvania. His candidacy
represents the protest of the Republican
elements in the district that are dis
satisfied with the Hon. ". II. Graham.
who has received the denomination from
the regular Republicans. The district
comprises a part of the county OF Ale
gheny, where Governor Stone IS exceed
ingIy unpopular. and as GrahanI's asso-
citation with the Stone facticn is con
spicuous. he Is being vigorously fought
by large and influential element of
Republicans. With the solid support OF
the Democrats 1t Is thought Mr.. Shiras
would be sure OF election. Mr.. Shiras
is successful lawyer. and keeps his
Offices in Pittsburg. IL was he who
few weeks ago gave out the statement
that his father intended TO retire from
the Supreme Court at an early date un-

1t is that Senator Spooner isn't out Of

that this decliration mas done him no

SIDE LIGHTS ON
NATIONAL POLITICS.
Is Mr.. German Frightened

The Hon. Arthur Pue German is seen
less in Washington In these brown Oc-
tober days than at the corresponding
season for many years. The cause gen
orally assigned for this is that Mr.
German Is buster with his political ma
chine In Maryland than he has formerly
mad reason to be. He more frequently
is found In conference with his lieuten-
ants, who sometimes meet him In Bal
timore, at other times at Laurel. aud
8gain at Annapolis, than has been his
wont since he reorganized the Demo-
cratic party to his liking. 1t Is said
that Mr.. German has reason to get
busy The recent registration In Mary
land fell so far below his expectations.
and probably his necessities. that he Is
supposed to have become uneasy, and
will continue TO stay away from Wash
ington until ne straightens things OFT
a bit. But Senator Mccomas. the Re-
publican leader in the State, Is said TO
be every whit as uneasy as Mr. German.
so on this score there is stand-of
