Farewell.
Business separations occur in
wnicn trie same leeiing or sad
ness is shown as that of separ
ation of near friends. Having
been connected with this paper
for more than thirteen years in
one of the most pleasant co
partnerships, I feel reluctant to
give up, but unfortunate cir
cumstances over which I had no
control impelled me to take the
step. My association dates back
to snoruy alter arriving of age,
and embraces the best part of
my life. I have formed many
sincere friends, whose memory
1 win long cnensii, and to whom
I owe much for their kind acts.
In State and National issues I
have labored with a willing
hand and earnest heart for the
success of democracy, and al
though often reprimanded for
being too sanguine of success, I
pressed forward to help win the
victories, and had I the means
to consummate the desire. C.n.
umbia County would have reach-
j Ai 1 r, -
eu ine inree tnousand majority.
I have long persisted in claim
ing ought to be given to the
democratic standard bearers.
Since circumstances necessitate
my withdrawal there certainly
couia De no more desirable op
portunity than at the present
wnen we una ourselves m pos
session of both State and Na
tional Government.
To my many friends, I be
speak that they continue this
earnest support to my successor,
and long time partner in busi
ness, Geo. E. Elwell.
With a deep sense of obliga
tion 10 inose who nave long
been patrons and friends, I bid
a kind farewell and hope to be
able to repay them for their
kindness, for wherever my lot
shall fall, memory will recall the
pieasant associations.

An Announcement.
On October ist, i8;9, I form

Bittenbender, for the publica

time we nave Deen in perfect
personal ana political accord.

reluctance on my part that the

For the present I am riiA tn an
nounce that he will remain here
and assist in the office. During
all the time of his connection
witn tnis paper he has worked
most assiduously for the Demo.

and Gubernatorial campaigns he
has made personal sacri fires fnr

The change in the ownershi
of this paper will make no di
ference so far as the business i
concerned. Those subscribers
who have paid in advance will
receive the paper for the full
time paid for, and all contracts
for advertising will be fully
carneu out, me same as 11
change in the ownership had
occured.
For nearly nineteen vears
have devoted my best efforts t
the publication of a clean, rel
able Democratic and family
newspaper, x noseerrorts willin
no way be relaxed, and there are
in contemplation numerous im
provements, by which it is hoped
that all of our old friends will
be retained, and many new ones
secured.
With grateful acknowledge
ments of past favors, I respect-
fnlly solicit a continuance of the
liberal patronage which the pub
lie has heretofore bestowed ip-
on in is oince.

Hoke Smith, who is only thirty-eight,
will be the baby of the Cabinet. Car
lisle is not far behind Gresham ami
Morton, while Lamont, Bissel, Herbert
ami winey are all under fifty. The
average of Mr. Cleveland's Cabinet is
considerably under that of the Harri
son Cabinet. Com para ively speak
ing, Mr. Cleveland has selected a Cab
inet of young men. Hoke Smith is
probably the youngest man to hold a
Cabinet position since the days of
Alexander Hamilton. The combined
weight of the Cabinet is 1,600, or an
average of 200 pounds each. Mr
Cleveland will bring the total up to
over 1,800 pounds, so the new admin
istration will commence business with
nearly a ton of material as a found a
tion.
The ioint committee which ha in
charge the amendments to the Baker
Dauot law has about completed its
work. One change has been made,
which is contrary to the wishes of the
Ballot reform association. This con
sists in the adoption of the Ohio plan
of marking the ticket and the abandon
ing of the group system. One cross
in a party circle at the head of the
ballot under the proposed plan will
vote-an entire straight ticket. A voter
who desires to scratch must place a
cross opposite the name of earh and
every candidate for whom he desires
to vote. Other amendments agreed
upon to strike off the residences of the
candidates from the ticket, shorten
the time tor filing objections and there
by increase the limit allowed for the
printing of the tickets. The percent
age of the total vote necessrry for a
party t.omination is decreased from
three to two. This change will let in

Eitravaganoe and Economy.
A foolish discussion is that one
about the relative extravagance of the
Fifty-first and the Fifty second Con
gress. The measure of extravagance
or economy is not the sum expended,
but its relation to the means of pay
ment and the degree of usefulness or
necessity in the objects of expendi
ture. It is possible for one Congress by
ordaining certain expenditures and
making no sufficient appropriation to
meet them, to throw the apparent re
sponsibility of the cost upon the Con.
gress following. This was what was
done to an unusual extent by the Reed
Congress.
It passed a dependent pension act
that required an increase of nearly
$100,000,000 in the appropriation by
we congress loiiowing: it passed the
sugar bounty act, which cost nothing
in us own term, i:ut $20,000,000 in
that of the next Congress, and so on
through a list that will aggregate at
least $icc. 000.000

WASHINGTON LETTEB
Washington, March 13, 1.893.
Tresident Cleveland has not com
mitted himself on the Hawaiian ques
tion. This statement is made upon
high and unquestionable authority.
1 he Harrison annexation treaty was
withdrawn from the Senate because it
was objectionable for several reasons.
U was carelessly drawn, and some of
its most important features were en--tirely
too indefinite to be satisfactory,
even if Mr. Cleveland had fully made
up his mind, which he hasn't in favor
of annexation. What Mr. Cleveland
desires is information, and that he is
now diligently seeking, through Secre
tary Gresham, and General Scliofield
and Admiral Brown, both of whom
are familiar from personal observation
with Hawaii and its population. It is
probable that a Presidential message
on this subject will be sent to the Sen
ate before that body adjourns, and it
is also probable that it will be accom
panied by a new treaty, may be of an
nexation and may be lor the establish
ment of a protectorate. But what
ever is done the sugar planters of Ha
waii will not be allowed to cash in
their expectations.
While the determination of Presi
dent Cleveland not to re-appoint those
who held office under his first admin
istration has been disappointing to in
dividuals, some of whom had by hard
work in the campaign earned the right
to expect office, there is no doubt
about the popularity of the move with
the rank and file of the party, the men
who have campaign after campaign
fought for a losing cause, many of
whom are now for the first time ap
plicants for office. They feel that it
gives them a better chance at the
loaves and fishes, and that it is but
carrying out the old, old democratic
idea of opposition to the establish
ment of a permanent office holding
class. It shows too, that the lesson
of the decay of the once powerful re
publican party has not been lost on
Mr. Cleveland.
Secretary Carlisle finds the financial
outlook much more cheerful and en
couraging, although not yet satisfac
tory, than when he fiist took charge
of the National finances. There has
been a let up in the demand for gold,
and he hopes to escape having to
choose between using a part of the
$ioo,coo,ooo, gold reserve fund or an
issue of bonds. At present the free
gold is accumulating quite rapidly in
the Treasury.
Representative Richardson, of
Tennesee, enjoys the distinction of
having secured the appointment of the
first postmaster under this administra
tion, a distinction which he also cap
tured under President Cleveland's first
administration. Mr. Richardson also
has the honor of being one of the few
who has been sent for by the President
to consult with him about the appoint
ment of a new government printer, one
of the most impoitant positions, from
a political point of view, under the ad
ministration. Mr. Richardson has been
a member of. and chairman, of the
House committee on Printing for a
number of years ; hence the value of
his advice in selecting a man to boss
the government printing. I
The caucus committee charged with !
the duty of reporting to the democrat
ic caucus the membership of the re
organized Senate committees has about
concluded its work although its Teport
win not pe made lor a day or two. and
it is thought that the following list of
chairmen of the most important com
mittees is correct : Appropriations
Cockrell; Commerce Ransom ; Fi
nance Vorbees ; Foreign Relation
Morgan ; Inter-state Commerce But-
ler ; Judiciary Pugh ; Library Mills ;
Military Allairs Walthall ; Naval Af

Pensions Palmer 1 Post Office and
Post Roads Colquitt; Printing Gor
man ; Privileges and Elections
Vance ; Public Buildings and Grounds
Vest j Rules Blackburn ; Territor
iesFaulkner, and Indian Depreda
tions Vilas. It is expected that the
re organization will be perfected this
week.
Secretary Smith has already earned
the reputation of being one of the
hardest workers who ever presided
over the Interior Department, and he
is at all times accessible to callers. He
listens patiently to all they have to say,
but as yet he does very little talking
himself.
A rumcr, of the important if true
variety, is floating around to the effect
that President Cleveland has an
nounced his intention to appoint no
newspaper men to office, except in ex
ceptional cases, and that he is parti
cularly opposed to making editors post
masters of small towns.
The last member of the Harrison
cabinet bids farewell to Washington
this week, in the person of ex-Attorney
General Miller, the one who ex
pected to have remained here as a
Justice of the Supreme Court.
Just how long tne extra session of
the Senate will continue is uncertain,
but it is the expectation of the Sena
tors with whom I have talked that it
will remain in session until about the
first of May.

Favorite Remedy. The great value
we place in Favorite Remedy comes
from the fact that it is the only ineni
cine that will effectually dissolve this
acid thus curing rheumatism, dyspep
sia, kidney, livei and urinary troubles
and the sicknesses women sutler irom.
These and many moie troubles all
come from the one cause, as I said
before, this death dealing uric acid.
Perhaps there has been no one per
son in Wyoming Co., Pa., that lias
suffered more than Mrs. Carrie Uou
ton, formerly of Schottville, but now
of Harvey's Lake, Luzerne Co. Mrs.
liouton, in relating her restoration to
health, said : "From a growing girl
I suffered from female trouble or weak
ness peculiar to my sex. Several phy
sicians prescribed for me but I found
no relief. I was reduced in flesh down
to 68 pounds, ttv accident 1 heard
of Dr. Kennedys Favorite Remedy
and determined to try it, and to my
great joy I began to realize that I had
found a medicine that was doing me
good. I think I had used five botMes
when I found that I weighed uij
pounds sr.d was better in health than
I ever was before.
Inquiry among Mrs. Bouton's neigh
bors shows that she states nothing but
the facts in regard to her case. Many
other instances of the kind are widely
talked of in Scottsville, Tunkhannock,
VVilkesbarre and other places where
Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy has
effected many cures after physicians
had given up hope.
"But," says one of our prominent
druggists, Favorite Remedy is equally
efficacious in other diseases, as talks
with people I have sold Favorite Re
medy to affirm. To my knowledge
right in our town Favorite Remedy
has cured people suffering from rheu
matism, dyspepsia, kidney, liver and
urinary troubles."
Since the publication in one of the
New York medical journals of the
case of Mr. E. P. Tayer, of East Nas
sau, N. V., Dr. Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy has been increasing in sale.
Mr. Tayer had suffered for fifteen
years with inflammatory rheumatism.
His case was practically abandoned
by his physicians. Favorite Remedy
was brought to his notice and in less
than three months after its use he was
a well man.
In commenting on this case Dr. W.
II. Morse, of New York City, says :
The great good in Favorite Remedy
lies in its power to dissolve this dead
ly uric acid. In cases of dyspepsia,
eczema, scrofula or any urinary di
seases I have never known it to fail,
when taken according to directions.
Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is
not only used by physicians now but
can be found on sale by every medi
cine dealer. Wilkeslarre (J'a.) lie-
