The Wellsboro Agitatof says that
Hon. Andrew B. Dunsmore may be
brought into prominence ere long as a

at once hold leading position. AS Mrs
Dunsmore is Honesdale girl, it is likely
that Wayne will join with the other coun-
ties of the northern tier in approving the
selection, if he should be named as pre-
siding officer of the House. 1t is under
stood, however, that Alfred Marvin, O
Pike, has aspirations in the same direc.
