Col. Andrews Indorsed.
Lt is common to see men about
the Capitol wearing buttons in the
lapels of their coats bearing the
Features of Col. W. R. Andrews,
clerk of the Senate Committee on
Immigration. A big box of these
buttons has been received here
from Pennsylvania. They were
.sent by Col. Andrews' friends, who
have named him as their candidate
for Governor of Pennsylvania. He
has received the indorsement of
various political organizations of
.his State, and many Republican
newspapers have indorsed his can
didacy. He is thoroughly familiar
with Pennsylvania politics, is a man
of wide experience and great ability
and has an unusually large amount
of popularity. He came here when
Senator Penrose entered the Senate.
Col. Andrews served with distinc
tion throughout the Civil War,
and many of the Grand Army posts
of his State are supporting his can
didacy. —Washington Star.
Rveryone Is at Sea.
Ilarrisburg Telegraph, Monday.
The center of political agitation
in Pennsylvania has shifted. It is
now in Harrisburg, and the princi
pal actor is on the stage, occupying
the center. Last night Attorney
General Elkin arrived here from
Philadelphia, fresh from the agita
tion that has caused so much ex
citement, and he announced that
he is in the fight for the Republican
nomination for Governor, and, he
added, emphatically: "I expect to
»vin just as certain as I am here.''
There are others who think that in
time Mr. Elkin will think other
wise, but at present ho has all of
'die air of a man who expects to
win, and all of the confidence of a
lighter who is conscious of his
•power and skill in matters political
in Pennsylvania. Mr. Elkin had
heard of the news that ex-Senator
Cameron will likely be the man
supported by Senator Quay, but he
made no comments, except to say
that he would not get out of the
. cjont' st fur any man, and that on
conv ntion day, if he goes down to
defeat, it will be with colors flying;
"but I am not going to be defeat
ed," said Mr. Elkin. He is in re
ceipt of hundreds of telegrams from
all over the State advising him to
stay in the fight, and of these
twenty-five have been made public.
They are from all parts of Penn
sylvania and are of a singular un
animity in advising him to remain
in the field, and not to quit the
contest. It is this which has bols
tered up Mr. Elkin's nerve and
caused bis friends to take heart.
Superintendent T. Larry Eyre,
who had intended togo to Charles
ton tomorrow with the Governor
and party to observe Pennsylvania
Day, has sent word that he will not
go as he expects to remain home
and take off his coat for Mr. Elkin,
and that he expects to be 011 the
winning side when the convention
is held.
Senator Quay's return to Wash
ington was very quiet, and up to
last night he had not conferred
with anybody on the situation. He
was called upon yesterday by a
delegation ol Erie and Warren peo
ple who asked bis assistance in
making W. K. Andrews the can
didate for Governor, but made 110
promises. It is well known that
Senator Quay is for ex-Senator
Cameron iirs!, and that he has no
second choice at present should
the Ilarrisburg stateman decline
to be a candidate. There was a
rumor in Ilarrisburg on Saturday
night that the real cause of Mr.
Elkin's being asked to withdraw
was the fact that the national ad
ministration was afraid that with
him on the ticket a number of
Republican candidates for Con
gress in close districts might not
he elected, and the majority in
Congress be made so close as to
jeopardise a number of matters of
legislation that the administration
particularly wants to complete be
fore the next national election. Mr.
Elkin's friends scouted this, and
insisted that with him on the
ticket the members of Congress
who are now timid would be cer
tain of election, and that there was
really no danger.
It comes from Pittsburg that
George Von Bonliorst, a friend of
the late Senator Magee, has been
made the party leader in Allegheny
county, and that he will see that
the Allegheny delegation will not
support Mr. Elkin, but will give
their aid to the candidate named
by Senator Quay. This would
mean a solid delegation from Alle
gheny and Philadelphia counties
for any candidate Quay may name,
which is a great start in a race for
a nomination.
Mr. Elkin's friends are said to
be engaged in perfecting an organ
ization, with T. Larry Eyre in
charge in the cast, Mr. Elkin him
self conducting the Central Penn
sylvania campaign from Ilarris
burg, and ex-State Treasurer Bea
com and ex-Senator Mitchell caring
for the western Pennsylvania in
terests. Friends of Senator Quay
say that even with this organiza
tion there cannot be sufficient head
way made against the strength of
Mr. Quay as to at any time jeopar
dise his control of the convention
when it meets.
Governor Stone, who is for Mr.
Elkin, says that he will not talk for
publication. Privately the Gover
nor is going to do what he can for
his cabinet member, and he ex
pects the administration family to
turn in and each do what he can.
Congressman Council left Wash
ington for his Scranton home yes
terday and again took occasion to
place himself on record as favoring
Mr. Elkin for Governor. Mr. Cou
ncil says that Colonel Watres will
be given the Lackwanna county
delegates as a compliment on the
first ballot for Governor, but after
that thej r will goto Mr. Elkin.
The Watres men will not have it
that way, and say that the Lacka
wanna delegates will be first, last
and all the time for Watres. In
Luzerne county it is said that
Senator Quay's action has made it*
possible for Mr. Elkin to carry that
county, and a number of Watres
men met in Wilkes-Barre on Sat
urday night and decided to make
the tight to get the delegates for
Watres.
lii Westmoreland former State
Treasurer Beacom is quoted as say
ing that lie favors the nomination
of Mr. Klkin, regardless of the fact
that Mr. Quay does not want him,
and Henry High, the Berks leader,
is out in an interview in which lie
nays that Berks will stick to Klkin.
In our sister county of Lebanon,
Messrs. A. M. liouck and George
B. Woonier, the Republican lead
ers, have announced that Leba
non's delegates, being instructed
for Elkin, will vote for him. In
Lancaster Secretary Griest main
tains the stand he took last week
as being unalterably for Elkin. In
Bucks county ex-Congressman
Yardley who is regarded as the
Republican leader, says that the
delegates will stand by Senator
Quay, but ex-Congressman Gilke
sou, another leader, says Elkin will
get the Bucks support, and there
is promise of a fight. Montgomery
county is on the fence, and will lie
for whoever United States District
Attorney says, and it was reported
here to-day that Mr. Holland favors
Elkin. In Delaware Leader Math
ues says he is for Delaware's can
didate for Governor, Senator
Sproul.
At present matters are in a very
chaotic condition, and it will take
some time before the political
atmosphere has cleared suiliicient
to enable either side to size the
situation up.
Letter to Climax Hfg. Co.
Emporium, Pa.
Dear Sir: A painter wants to know
what liis paint is made of. That's all
right: he's welcome.
Devoe is white-lead and white-zinc
ground together in linseed oil. There
is nothing else in it, but color and
turpentine dryer. Our agent in your
town has the official State Chemist's
certificate of analysis certifying to that
I effect.
It is the zinc and the grinding that
make it wear twice as long as lead and
i oil mixed by hand.
Yours truly,
70 F. w. DEVOE & Co.

Sinnamahoning Liars' Club.
The Liar's Club held a long solemn
session last night in the graveyard, all
members in attendance except JohoLoguc.
Ilarry Ward held the reins of govern
ment in his usual bashful manner. Pap
Blodgett's report of his visit to Empori
um was received and placed on ice. He
swears he met Dalrymple and made him
squeal three times, but admits that lie
had to cut corners to get away from
Alfred Nelson. John Hogan had noth
ing to offer, his last experience with the
sewer .taking out all the starch. Buck
holder holds the record and will be the
next representative lrom this county,
should he get the nomination and be en
dorsed by Sinnamahoniog Liars' Club.
Pap Blodget enjoyed his visit and had a
large time until he met the courthouse
gaug, when Yothers and Hockley fixed
him plenty. In his dispair he called on
Joe Leehner for consolation, but was
sorely disappointed to learn it was empty.
Had it not been for Sheriff Swope. the
club would have been minus their presi
dent, lor he kindly loaded htm on the
train at the Junction. Pap had an idea
that if he could only stay over until Sun
day he could clean out Jake Hlaigle.
The report satisfied the members present
that the next time Pap Blodget goes to
Emporium Ilanscome and DeShetler will
be sent along. Martin Bowen and 1).
D. Colcord came down on 3 day too soon.
P. 11. Haynes stole the march on the old
cronies and secured that jug, well filled
before the gang got onto him. Hans
com has been suspended for 30 days for
daring to tell the truth twice within a
week. It was too much for Howard
Metzgcr and he withdrew.
Chas. Council has recovered lrom his
illness. We expect to get some good fish
yarns. J. 11. Batchelder has been eating
so many suckers that it is a hard matter
for him to pull off his stockings. AI.
Losey is now a star member. Our fee
has been reduced to 13 cents and expect
a large membership in the near future.
DeShetler closed the books and all hands
went up the Fork to see a dog fight.

Chronic Bronchitis Cured.
"For ten years I had chronic bronchitis
so bad that at times I could not speak
above a whisper," writes Mr. Joseph
Coffman, of Montmorenci, Ind. 'I tried
all remedies available, but with no suc
cess. Fortunately my employer suggest
ed that I try Foley's Honey and Tar. Its
effect was almost miraculous, and I am
now cured of the disease. On my recom
mendation many people have used Foley's
Honey and Tar, and always with satis
factian." L. Taggart.
The Best Cold Cure
Is one you can take without interrup

A NEW DEPARTURE.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
Railway has recently putin service on
its Pioneer Limited trains the largest
and handsomest dining car ever built.
It is 82 feet in length from tip to tip,
and its body is 6 inches wider and high
er than the usual dining car.. It seats
36 people comfortably in movable
chairs, and has a kitchen large enough
to permit the working of six cooks
which with six waiters and a conductor
make up the crew. The dining cars
heretofore in service did not provide
sufficient space to properly care for the
large number of patrons of the Pioneer,
so that it became necessary to have a
larger car. 8 3t
A MATTER OF HISTORY.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
Railway, popularly known as "The St.
Paul Road," began the use of electricity
for train lighting in 1888. In that and
many ways it has been a pioneer in the
adoption ot'comforts for tho traveler.
In building the world famous Pioneer
Limited trains a mark was set in luxury
and beauty of cars that has never been
equalled, and probably never will be.

TRAVEL LIKE PRINCES.
Those who saw the special train in
which H. R. H. Prince Henry of Prussia
made his tour of the United States are
comparing it with other trains in
regular service, and it is admitted that
none of the cars in tho train compare
favorably with the buffet, compartment
and standard sleeping cars of the
Pioneer Limited trains of tho Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway in daily
service between Chicago, St Paul and
Minneapolis. The people of this
country have the satisfaction of know
ing that at any time they cannot only
travel like Princes, but can get much
| batter service. 7-3t
Reduced Rates to the West.
Commencing March Ist and daily
thereafter, until April 30th, 1902, the

coughs or colds," says Chas. M. Cramer,
Esq., a well known watch maker, of
Colombo, Ceyloy. "It has been two
years since the City Dispensary first called
my attention to this valuable medicine and
I have repeatedly used it and it has always
been beneficial. It has cured me quick
ly of all chest colds. It is especially ef
fective for children and seldom takes
more than one bottle to cure them of
hoarseness. I have persuaded many to try
