Carlisle, Pa., June 1.—John C.} Lower, the prominent Adams county republican politician, formerly a presidential elector and now a mem- ber of the republican statecommittee positively affirmed his position as being in favor of William Jennings Bryan. He said: *T announced my- self some time as intending to vote for Mr. Br; and I stick to what I then said. Mr. Lower bases hischange of opin- ion la y on the present commercial situation and cites innumerable cases to sustain his views, whichare antag onistic to trusts. He says he knows of seven wholesale grocery houses that are being forced out of business in this section of the country, and believed the present administration is responsible for the situation. Mr. Lower has been for years one of the most prominent republicans ir this section, and has been formerly a firm supporter of McKinley, for whom he voted when a national delegate. > A; He is now interested in the wholesale grocery business, and has a very large influence. ma SESS | Sulzer’s Race for Nomination. 3.—Congress- Washington, June man Sulzer, of New York, has gone to New York, and from there will go to Saratoga for a week's recupera- tion.

William Watson, one of Sulzer’s lieutenants, says this of his chances: “Mr. Sulzerisin the race to win and it will take a strong man to beat him out. He will have the support of New York—every member of Tam- many Hall will indorse him—he will have the support of the Massachu- setts democracy and he will be sup- ported by the democratic represen- He will also claim Michigan and Minnesota, as wellas Wisconsin. He is certain to have Nebraska. letters from prominent democrats in that state have promised him their support. He is now the best equipped candi- date in the field. We have not the slightest doubt as to the result. He will be nominated.” Sep pee An ay A Life and Death Fight. W. A.
