Lancaster county for their support tlie race for congress, and especalat the Cotton Mills, who voted a y pleased, notwithstanding the sses whip and a set oi hirelings to ' to influence them against their lis."

I). K. Kinley lor congress, as most su itable man for the olflce, bout hatred or fear of any man or of men. If T .1.
