rolcd pnbltcty in tlio Chicago conven
tion, nnd a duel is expected.
It looks now as though Harrison or
Grcahain, or Ale;or, or l)cpow, or Sher
man, or Filler, or Allison, or MoKinty,
or somebody will bo nominated nt
Chicago.
Tho republican national convention
is in session this week at Chicago. It
is utterly impossible to tell who may bo
nominated. A groat effort was made
by Blaine's friends to forco him into
the Geld, and it may succeed.
Grover Cleveland was nominated at
St. Louis by tho unanimous volco of
tho Democratio party. At Chicago
there aro a dozen or ruoro factions each
' with a candidate, and somebody is sure
to go homo with a sore head.
Charles G. Barkloy is a candidate for
tho offico of President Judgo of the
Bovoral courts of this (26th) Judicial
district It will bo proper for tho next
Democratio County Convention to ap
point Conferees to meet Conferees
from Montour county, relative to nam
ing a candidate for this oflico.
From this time forth until tho oleo
tion, every time a steel mill, a nail fac
tory, a furnaco or any kindred estab
lishment closes for repairs, wo shall bo
told that tho stoppago is on account of
stagnation in the iron trade as the re
sult of pending tariff legislation." A
dispatch in the Sunday Philadelphia
I'ress stated that tho Pennsylvania
Steel Works woold shut down on the
30 inst. for this reason. The truth is
tho works will be closed for two weeks
for repairs, as it has been their oustom
for yers past at this Boason. We may
look for monopolist, to force tho wages
of their men down so as to induce a
strike, in order that thoy may ascribe
tho trouble to "tariff legislation."
The sort of "American Labor" that
tho millionaire manufacturers are bo anx
ious to protect is shown by statistics
of the nationality of tho operatives in
the Amory Cotton Mills at Manchest
er, N. H. Of tho 800 "one-third aro
French-Canadians and tho rest of var
ious nationalities, only eighty, or one
tenth of tho whole, being native Amer
icans." And the Protectionist paper
that prints these facts adds that "what
is' true of this company is also substan
tially true of all tho great manufactur
ing companies in New England."
This is the result of high tariffs on
goods that all tho peoplo use and free
trado in' the "pauper labor" that produ
ces them.-- World
The New York Weekly Post, in re
ply to a letter from a subscriber char
ging it with consistency in supporting
Mr. Cleveland on a tariff issue, in spite
of Lis failure to fulfil all his civil-ser-v6o
reform promises the principal ba
sis on whioh the Post supported his
first candidacy thus defines its posi
tion: "If wo saw tho smallest clianco
of Cleveland's being opposed by any
one who would oarry out the pledges
Cleveland made in 1884, wo should not
bo prevented by any concern for tho
tariff from supporting him, because wo
know well that tariff reform is not
within the President's reach, while
civil-reform is. But we seo no pros
pect of anything of the kind. In tho
present condition of tho Republican
party we Bee no possibility of it. It
the Republican Convention nominates
a fit nian it wilt bo with the intention
of 'knifing' him; if it nominates a bad
one, it will be with the view of using
his clothes to disguise the well known
features of James G. Blaine."
The President is Pleased.
WITH THE ATTITUDE OF TUB DEMOCRA
T10 l'AKTV.
The following is a Washington spec
ial in the New York Herald.
A New York democrat, who repre
sents this country at a European court,
and who is a warm personal friend of
tho president, had a lengthy interview
with Mr. Cleveland. Tho conversation
was unreserved as to tho policy of the
administration and tho prospects for re
election. Your correspondent was un
able to gather from tho reticent minis
ter a few of tho topios discussed in tho
informal talk. Tho president expres
sed himself as entirely pleased with tho
attitudo of the democratio party upon
tho tariff qucati6n. Ho maintains that
the canvass before tho people will show
that tho uomourats have tne popular
bide. The oountry will not much
longor endure an excessivo Bystem of
taxation that creates suou a dangerous
surplus in tho treasury, and the good
sonso of tho people demands that the
taxes upon tho necessities shall be tho
Jlrst to bo reuueod. iuo republicans,
forced to do something, may seek to
abolish tho internal revenue- taxes, but
the people, the president feels assure;!.
will emphatically declare for oheaper
clothing rather than cheaper whisky.
The complaints ot tho civil servioo re
formers that he has not earnestly, and,
bo far as was possible, faithtully onfor
oed tho civil servioo law, tho presi
dent regards as a peevish display of
gross ignorance or worso ingratitude
upon their part. Mo recalled with con
siderable feeling tho fierce opposition
ho eucounterod in the first years of
his administration because of his deter,
mined efforts to preserve, with the
Btriotest fidelity tho plodges of his let
ter of acceptance for the reform of tho
civil Bcrvloo. "And," added Mr,
Cleveland, "denpito the storm of pro

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Prom our ltegular Correspondent.)
Wasiiinoton, Juno 18th. 1888.
Congressman Timothy J. Campbell,
of Now York, has an abiding faith in
tho running qualities of Cleveland and
Thurman. In fact ho has $5,000
worth of faith In their being our noxt
President and Vico-presldont respect
ively. That is tho sum ho has wager
ed with ox-Congressman Page, of Cal
ifornia, that they will oarry the Stato
of Now York next November. Un
less Homo vory unexpected change
shall tako placo in tho scntimonts of
tho people, Mr. Campbell's ohanoo for
picking up $5,000 may bo considered
as excellent.
Mr. and Mr. Cleveland expect to at
tend tho graduating exercises of tho
university oi Virginia uu mu aii.ii
inst. Tho honor of holdlno tho first Clovo
land and Thurman ratification meoting
at tho National Capital is duo to tho
Virginia Democratic association, which
hold an enthusiastlo meeting on Friday
last, when araid tho waving of red
bandannas and vociferous cheering,
tho campaign was oponcd. Among
tho speakers wero Sonator-clect Har
bour, of Vircinia. Col. Washington,
Representative Outhwaito, of Ohio,
lion John Gpode, nnd Judgo Barber,
of Ivy. Mr. Outhwaite chcorod the
boys up considerably by tolling them
of a remarkable orab-applo-trco in
Ohio that has nover bloomed except
in tho years that the Democrats have
carried tho State. It bloomed this
year.
The Houso Committo on Foreign
Affairs have reported favorably the
bill providing for a perrainent exposi
tion in Washington to celebrato in 18-
92 tho 400th anniversary ot tne ais
oovorv of America, and to bo partici-
patod in by all the Governments of
the three Americas.
Considorintr tho fact that fully one-
third of its entire membership is in at
tendant upon tho Chicago convention
Congress is getting along fairly well.
Tho Mills tariff bill has for tho time
boing given way for the regular ap
propriation bills, prompt aotion upon
which is necessary, owing to the near
ness of tho now fiscal year. It is hop
ed to get them all tnrough in time.
"With their Btrongest man nomina
ted, the chances of tho republican
party would still havo been desperato"
said Representative Cox to-day, "but
with ono of, their weakest men, as it
now seems likely to bo, thoy will simp
ly have no chanco at an.
The President has Bicned the bill es
tablishing a Department of Labor. It
is said that Mr. Carroll Wright, who
has been in charge of tho labor bureau
since its establishment, would hko to
take charge of tho new Department.
A joint resolution has been passed
by Contrress, allowing all ex-soldiers,
of either side, who participated in the
battlo of Uottysburg, leave to attend
the re-union to be held on tho anniver
sary of the battle.
During the tariff debato in tho
House, Thursday, Mr. Randall made a
speeoh in favor of a protective tariff
on tin plate, although not a single sheet
of it is at present manufactured in this
oountry. Ho was applauded by the
republicans.
Tho investigation of tho Gov't Prin
ting Offico has been conclndcd. Mr.
Benedict comes out with flying colors,
as has been predicated in this corres
pondence. There will bo probally bo
two reports made to the Houso, tho re
publicans will endeavor to so twist the
evidence that they can get material
enough to make a report againBt the
present management of tho Offioe.
Not that they expect to accomp
lish any thing, by so doing, but they
feel that something must be done to
counteract the effect the showing np
of previous republican mismanage
ment of the Office which tho evidence
boforo tho committo brought about
and which tho democratio mombors of
the committee will freely draw upon
in making their report.
Indian Commissioner Atkins has re
signed for tho purposo of making a
personal canvas in favor of bis olection
to the United States Senate from Tenn
essee Further consideration of the fisher
ies treaty has been postponed until the
25th. inst. The Senate judiciary com
mitteo will again tako up tho nomina
tion of Mr. Fuller to bo Chief Justice
on the same day.
Mr. Cleveland has expressed himself
to a mend as being entirely pleased
with the present attitude of the derao
mocratio party upon tho tariff question,
as well as with the platform adopted
at St. Louis.
Dubois Destroyed-
THOUSANDS HOMELESS.
Tho most destruotive conflagration
in tho history of Western Pennsylva
nia ocourod at Dubois last Monday
Shortly after 4 o'clock in tho afternoon
fire was seen issuing from windows in
the Baker Houso, near the Buffalo,
Rochester and PltUburc Railroad do
pot. Tho Firo Department was called
out, but tho flames had gained consi
derable headway before tho arrival of
tho firemen and it was impossible to
got u ucder control. Tne hro spread
rapidly in a weaternlv direction, its
progress being groatly augmented by a
utiff breezi, and nt ni'no o'clock all that
remainod of tho beautiful and thriving
littlo city of ten thous inds inhabitants.
containing costly and substantial busi-
ucss blocks and baud-tome residences,
was a mass of 8mouldriii2 ruins.
The victims aro said to bo in the
neighborhood of thirty, of whom twen
ty aro men, four aro women and the
rest children. A sick woman in a
houso on Courtn-iy street was burned
' t. -r t , .
u unsp uuioru sao oouitj do rescued.
The scenes in and around tho unfor
tunatotown wero, beyond description.
Terrified wive and mothers, half oraz
ed husband and fathers and friend,
less and homeless littlo ones mingled in
heart-broki n groups around tho spots
where thoir hippy homos stood but a
few hours before.
Tho governor has issued the follow
ing appeal:
To TUB l-EOl-LK OF PuNNm.VANIAS
Two thousand peoplo aro homeless at
Dubois. An unusually destructive
firo hai destroyed a largo part of tho
town. There is great destitution and
more or less differing. Tho Bursrss
and reliablo citizens telegraph fur help.
Tents will bo sent at onco for tempo
raiy shelter. I havo no means at
hand for doiug more, and cau only
commend tho homeless HufTerors to our
people, who novrr re I used to heed tho
call of thoir Buffering fellow-oltizons.
Monoyistho most desiiable form in
which to send help. All contributions
can bo safely sent to John E. Dubois,
chairman of Soliciting Uonmittee, Du
bois, I'a.
Let tho response to this call be
prompt and liberal.
(Signed) Jaaiks A. Beaver,
Governor,
Not a Party Ensign.
Tho stare aud stripes belong to tho
wholo peoplo of tho United States, and
not to any ono particular party. Tho
attempt being undo by tho republicans
to nso tho country's flag as a political
emblem to further paity sucoefM is an
Insult to tho inlclligciico.md patriotism
of tho American ponplo. Thcro aro
many good and palriotio men in tho
ranks of the republican party, and thoy
havo no undoubted right to maroli un.
der tho flag whenever thoy feel dispos
ed to do so but thoy should do it as
American citizens nnd not as partisans.
For tho edification of thoso hare-brained
republicans who aro trvine to drag
tho ling of their country in tho tnlro of
party polltios, wo will mention a few
facts to show that tho credit of sus
taining tho red, whito and bluo emblem
of our country's Integrity docs not bo
long entirely to tho g. o. p.
It was under tho wiso and patriotio
administration of Thomas Jefforson, n
democrat, and later on under another
democratio administration that wo so
curcd that vast domain Touching from
tho Mississippi to tho Pacific It is
from this samo territory that the pres
ent republican party gets most of its
strength, although its political ancestors
fought hard against its acquirement.
It was a democratio administration that
carried tho lhg successfully through
tho war of 1812-14, in spito of tho pro
tests of this samo g. o. p. who from
nress and pulpit donouncod it as an un
just and unholy war, oven going bo far
as to invoke divino vengeanco upon
tho heads of Mr. Madison and the
heroes of that war. Who wero thoy t
Androw Jackson, a domoorat, won a
great victory at Now Orleans at which
upwards of 3,000 British red coats bit
tho dust and ho was fined $1,000 by a
federalist judgo for trying to uphold
tho honor of tho flag. General John E.
Wool and General William J. Worth,
both of whom were consistent demo
crats, carried tho old flag to victory.
Olivor Hazard Perry who won lasting
fame by his great victory on Lako Erie,
was a democrat, as was also Thomas
McDonougb, of whom it is said, that
being at ono timo impressed into tho
service by a British man of war, he
looked nloft and said, "Float on, proud
flag of England, God willing I will yet
humble your pride." Every school boy
oan tell of his glorious victory on Lako
Champlain. Tho list might be greatly
extended and yet not embraco the
names of all the democratic heroes who
won distinction by their unselfish de
votion to the stars and stripes during
that second war of independence
It might bo mentioned incidentally
that it was a democrat, Franois Barton
Key, that wrote that stirring song,
The Star Spangled Manner, and that
it was not a democrat that wrote "Tear
down the flaunting lio." So you will
perceive, Messieurs Republicans, how
unwarranted is your assumption of sole
ownership of tho flag of our common
country. Let us kindly suggest that
you suppress your partisan patriotism
sufficiently to prevent tho fool killer
from getting in his work. I'atriot.
A Navy in Bight.
The naval appropriation bill will
contain an item of $6,000,000 for the
beginning of additional war vessels,
S4,000,000 for construction nnd $2,000,
000 for armament. Four now shins
aro to bo begun, two of which aro to bo
unarmored cruisers of 3,000 tons each,
with a gnaranted speed of nineteen
knots. These will bo of tho samo
size as the Atlantic and Boston, and
will havo a speed lour knots greater.
The third of tho new vessels is to bean
unarmored cruiser of 5,300 tons dis
placed and a guaranteed speed of
twenty knots. Tho fourth will bo an
armored baitlo-shin of 7.000 tons and
of a speed of not less than soventecn
knots.
This makes twenty-six now vessels
that Congress has authorized, of which
only the Atlantio and Dolphin, both
unarmored cruisers, have made cruises
at sea. During tho coming year it is
expected that the Boston, "tho sister
ship to tho Atlantic tho Chicago, tho
isaittmore; tho monitors Miantononiah,
Puritan and Monadnoch, the Stilleto,
and tho dynamite cruiser Vesuyius,
will bo added, increasing tho number
ot uow vessels to ten. The additional
vessels already authorized by Congress
aro two raouitors, four gunboats, two
nnarmored aud ono armored cruisers
and threo armored battlo ships. If
Congress concurs in tho reccoraenda-
tion of tho appropriation committee
four mow vessels will bo added to this
list.
The central idea of the new navy so
far authorized, is a fleet of heavy ar
mored monitors and battle ships for
defensive purposes and a lot of fast
sailing unarmored cruisers armed with
heavy long range guns, which can
either fight or run away, as circum
stances may require To this is to bo
added a torpedo vessel or two, whosi
business it will be to blow tho native
of hostile oountries to atoms it 'they
can. It will bo observed that the num
ber of now vessels does not roally in
crease tho total number belonging to
tho navy, as old ships aro dismantled
and abandoned faster than now ones
aii completed. Every new vessel add
ed is a gain in efficacy, however, the
old vessels having been of no roal val
ue as nn offensive or defensive aruia.
ment since tho oleso of the rebellion.
Aside frora the satisfaction of posses
sing a navy that can either fight or run
a distinct gain has aocruod to tho
oountry in building it fiom tho erection
of a plant that makes ub independent
of foreign nations for a supply of tho
heavy castings and forgings required
for tbejongest range modern guns. In
other words, we are propared now not
only to build tho swiftest and most in
vulnerable phips known to niodorn war
fare, but to arm them from our owu
forges and foundries and ni thanks to
anybody else. For thU achievement
tho country is quite as much to b-i con.
grn'ulated as for tho possession of th,H
new vessels built and in tho courso of

A Woman's Shrewdness.
Who was it said that no woman ever
invented anything? It was untrue,
anyhow. A woman can bo ingenious
when it seems to her worth while. A
curious dovico for increasing tho busi
ness of a bar-room has lately been put
in praotico in a number of saloons. A
bright silver dollar is glued fast to the
floor in front of the bar. A man comes
in to order a drink, disoovers tho coin,
desires to pick it up nnd pocket it
without being poon, aud to that end
gives tho bar-tender a bill in payment
for his beverage, so that ho may havo
havo time, when that person turns his
back, to pick up tho dollar from tho
floor. But tho bar tender manages to
shorten tho opportunity to much that
tho man cannot stoop quickly enough
to touch ho prize. So ho orders an
other drink and tries again. Perhnps
no spenas three or tour times ns much
as ho intended to beforo ho is able to
touch the dollar, and to find out that
ho cannot detach it from tlio board.
Then ho sneaks ont quietly or langbs
over tho trick, and 111 either oase the
extra patronage has boon gained for
the saloon, while tho dollar remains
safe for further service. But what
was it that a Bowery woman did when
her husband told her ot tho trick t She
provided herself with a sharp-edged
tack-puller and made a round of all the
groggerics in her neighborhood whero
tha dollar ,dodgo was loing woiked.
She bought ono glass of beer in each
place, neatly pried up tho coin while
the barekeeper was unking change for
kor, and went On to repoaf tho opera

DR. CLARK'S CLAIMS.

iuiiy ueveiopeu constitutional disease presents lis
own speclilc diagnostic or characteristic symptoms,
which If thoro lghly understood by tho examining
physician, can bo accurately pointed out and de
scribed to tl e entire satisfaction of ever patient.
Hence Dr. Clark makes his examln itlons with.
out questioning patients, or allowing them to
make any statement concerning their disease or
lUlBJIUUbUUlS.
POSITIVE DIAGNOSIS.
If such examination nnd rtcscrlntlon Ii not In
strict accordance with the dlscaso and Its symp.

patients aro advised to go elsewhere for treat

THOROUGH KNOWLEDGE.
This method of examlnallod nrevents tho Doc
tor's Judgment from belnir in any war biased by
what tfco patient may say; and tho I 'octor's treat
