The Minority In the Houso Issues a Ring ing Address to the Democracy of Pennsylvania. FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 1X95. Recent changes in public sentiment make it highly improbable that there will be any division in Luzerne coun ty, as is contemplated by the bill now pending before the State Legislature. Opposition to the proposed new coun ty is daily growing, and many of those who were most enthusiastic ior me division at first are now against it, because of the large increase in taxa tion which would follow. The influential delegation that was in Marrisburg last week have brought back word that there is very little chance of the legislature passing the measure, and that if the friends of United States Senator Quay really want to get a county in the state named after their favorite they will have to go outside of Luzerne. At a conference of the Democratic members of the house of representa tives last Monday night twenty-four of the twenty nine were present. Atter discussion and consideration of the political situation in this state, it was determined to issue the following ad dress : To the Democracy of Tennsvl vai a. As representatives of the uresent Democratic sections in Penn svlvama. as demonstrated bv the last general election, we feel a responsi bility to the Democracy of the state and ourselves that calls upon us at this time to address you in the inter pst of better conditions ami more harmonious methods in our party or canization within the state. The unprecedented defeat in the eubernatorial contest in November, and the overwhelming disaster which befel our party in the mayoralty con tes in the city of Philadelphia, are sufficient to justify every one who has given the matter serious consideration in believing that the present mrthods are bringing us from bad to worse. We regret that factionalism exists within our ranks and notbinz should be done that will continue the same, but we believe the time has arrived when individuals must give way to a reorganization of the party upon a broader and higher plane, that will find opportunity for all who believe in the principles of Democracy. The hope of any party is the in tegrity of its purpose, the progressive ideas it embodies and the attraction it has for men of thought and principle, therefore let us raise the standard of Democracy within the state of Penn sylvania to that height where every man who believes in its principles can follow the organization with his full and hearty support. At no time within twenty years has there been such an opportunity for the Democratic party to go before the people of Pennsylvania against ex travacance ard mismanagement as presents itself at the present time, The Republican state administration is wasting the money of the tax pay ers and abriduine the rights of the our duty in this matter so as to regain the members of congress, legislature and county officers lost during the last three years. We as you then to as sist us in reorcanizine the Democratic party upon the broad lines suggested herein which are in full accord with the desires of the Democratic admin istration and cali to the chairmanship of the state central committee one who has the head to understand and the heart to feel for all the people of the party.

Socretary Gresham Talks Plainly to the Spanish Government. Madrid. March 1?. Mr. Harris Tajlor, the American minister, today pi esented to the minister of foreign aiinrs a demand from his government f n an apology and reparation from tlu government of Spain on account of ihe Allianca affair. Mr. Taylor's action was based on the following de spatch from Mr. Gresham, dated Washington yesterday: "This department is informed that on the 8th inst., the United States mail steamship Allianca, on her home waid voyage from Celon to New Vork, when six miles from the coast of Cuba, off Cape Maysi, was repeatedly fired upon by a Spanish gunboat with solid shot, which, fortunately, fell short. The windward passage where this oc curred is the natural and usual high way for vessels plying between points 01 the United States and the Caribean sea. Through it several regular lines of American mail and commercial steamers pass weekly in sight of Cape Maysi. They are well known and I neoole in such a manner as must de their voyage embraces no Cuban port mand serious attention on the part of of call. Forcible interference with them cannot be claimed as a belliger ent act, whether they pass within three miles of the Cuban coast or not and can, under no circumstances, be tolerated when no state of war exists. This government will expect prompt disavowal of the unauthorized act and due expression of regret on the part of Spain, and it must insist that immediate and positive orders be given to Spanish naval commanders n jt to interfere with legitimate Ameri can commerce passing through that channel, and prohibiting all acts want only imperiling life and property law fully under the flag of the United States. You will communicate this to the minister for foreign affairs and urge the importance of prompt and satisfactory response. Gresham." AJHB HATTER. SUITS FROM S18.00. CORNER MAIN & MARKET Sts.

The committee.consisting of Messrs Clement, Huth and Kline, that went to Ilarrisburg on Wednesday to fight the bill placing this county and Mon tour in one Judicial district had a hearing before the Judiciary Com mittee. They argued against the bill, claiming that this county was a large and growing one, and that to place another county in the same district would delay the business of the courts of this county and give a judge more than he could attend to. A delegation from Columbia coun ty was also present to oppose the bill. If it would co into effect Judge Ikeler would serve his term out and there would be no one elected in his place, his office becoming vacant. Colum bia. Wyoming and Sullivan would then form a district, and as the pres ent Judge lives in Sullivan the Colum bia people would kick long and loud It is claimed that the idea of joining the two counties was formulated in Danville, where there are several law yers who do not like Judge Ikeler and desire to get away from him. The committee from this county think that the bill is dead and that a new one, leaving this county to form a district by itself, will be passed. Siinbury Democrat. RUPIURE CURED. QUICUY. SAFELY.

E. A. HAM. Wairch April M ay Are the Best Months in Which to iirify You ir Hloodl And the Best Blood Purifier is THE INS AND 0TJT3. American politics is something nuvel in its peculiar way. Party and f ai tional squabble for position is no hing more nor less than dog con tention over worthless and rotten Im mes. Of course every clog will fitiht for a bone whether he can masti cate or not. So vill every corrupt politician fight for position whether he is fit to fill it or not. Of course whether he gets it or not matters not much as to the final out come, or well fa e, so far as the tax payer is con cerned. Hut no matter whether he is honest, or not, whether he steals or m.it, the other cur, or politician growls a nd snarls because he is not the cur or rascal to devour the bone or to steal the funds. The tax payer and his interest is of no consequence and hence is not taken into account. It's the spoils that the contention is for, and hence those who previously fed at the public crib, and waxed fat and were clubbed off that other leaches might suck the public " teat ", they srt up such a howl that a constant ringing is in the ears of tax payers that they little heed the hue and cry of the Ins or Outs. The tax payers are promised reform at every election, and every change has proven what its predecessor did, that each successor tries to outrival his predecessor in corruption, theft and robbery. The proceedings of the last Congress, and nose of the various Legislatures of the states illustrate and demonstrate but one idea ; and that is to spend and steal as much of the peoples' money as it is possible for them to do.

MI cannot praise Hood's SarsaparWa enough tor what it haa done for my boy. Borne four year, ago, when six year, old, Cleorge was attacked by hip disease in hi. right leg. We had to get him a pair of crutches, with which he wa. able to move about, bot became badly deformed. We had to have hla right leg lanced just above tho knee. In a few week. second .or. broke out, both discharging freely. Agon izing pains afflicted him, he oould not bear to b. moved, his growth was stopped and in a short time he has a mere skeleton. He had no appetite, and it was hard work to make him eat enough to keep him alWe, A few weeks later we had his hip lanced, and following this five other eruptions broke out, making eight running sorus in all. We did all we could for h'im, but he grew weaker every day, although we had three of the best physicians. As last re sort we were prevailed upon t y rf latives who had taken Hood's Sarsaparilla with beneficial results to give the medicine a trial. We got ono bottle about the first of March, and he had taken the medi cine only a few days when bis appetite be gan to improve. When he had takea one bottle he could move about a little witn his crutches, which he had not been able to use for the preceding three months. W e continued faithfully with Hood's Barsapa rilla, and in six months he was Ablo to be Dressed and go about the bouse without the crutches. He has now taken Hood's Sar saparilla regularly for eighteen months, and for the past six months has been with out the crutches, which he has outgrown by several lnc fees . Tne sores n a ve a u nea iea with the exceDtlon ot one which is ravidly clotting, only the scars and an occasional limp remaining as reminders oi nis suner ing. Hood's Barsaparilla in his caxe has truly done wonders, and he is dally gain' inar in fltwh and good color, lie rum abou and Dlftvs mi lively as any child. Wo foel an inexnrenaible lev at bavins our bov re stored to health and we always apeak in the highest term, of Hood'. Harsaparilla." Mrs. Hbnby W. Mdhtut, Exeter, N. H. "My mother-in-law, Mrs. Elizabeth Wolfe, at the age of 72 years, was at tacked with a violent form of salt rheum; it spread ull over her body, and her hands and limbs were dreadful to look at. At the same time, my little daughter Clara, who was just ono year old, was attacked by a similar disease, like scrofula. It appeared in Large Sores under each side of her neck ; had tho attendance of the family physician and other doctors for a long time, but seemed to grow worse. I read of many people cured of scrofula by Hood's Sarsaparilla. As soon as we gavo Hood's Sarsaparilla to Clara, she began to get better, and before the first bottle was gone, tho sores entirely healed up and there lias never been auy 6ign of the disease since. Sho U a Healthy Robust Child. ner grandmother took Hood's Sarsa parilla at the same time, and the salt rheum decreased in its vloleneo and a perfect cure waa soon effected. Ittook about three months for her cure, and sho ascribes her good health and strength at lmr advanced ago to I food's Sarsaparilla. It has certainly been a Godsend to my family." Mas. SoruiJ.
