Congressman Barclay eminently de
serves a re-election by an increased
majority. He is one of the hardest
workers in Congress and looks well to
the needs of his district.
Hon. Josiah Howard unselfishly
labors for the true advancement of
every section of Cameron county.
Keep him in the Legislature where his
honest and st übborn fight for the right
is appreciated. That he will be elected
by a large ma jority none dispute.

Frank G. Judd is a careful business
man, honest and upright. As Sheriff
he would give the duties of the office
every attention. He has been faithful
to every trust imposed upon him.
Vote for him.
Taft and Sherman are serenely float
ng along with the mighty hosts of Re
publicans and honest Democrats, who
place the welfare of the country above
party, to victory.
Farmers, laborers, mechanics, re
member that John A. Wykoff, the Re
publican candidate for Associate Judge,
is a laboring man and will guard your
interests on the Bench. Elect him.

While Governor Hoskill, of Oklaho
ma, is in the lime light, it is interesting
to know that he is not only Gover
nor, but a member of the Oklahoma
Text Book Commission and that one
of the text books adopted by the Com
mission contains the interesting infor
mation that when the future historian
writes the history of Oklahoma, he will
pay tribute to Gov. Haskell who was
elected as a reward for his able coun
sel and leadership in behalf of the peo-
A careful investigation of tbe condi
tions in thin Congressional district indi
cates clearly that Captain Barclay will j
again carry every county in the dis
trict and by increased majorities, not
withstanding the rosy predictions of
the gentleman from Centre county. It
is a case of facts against fancies.
A boarding house keeper disposed ot j
his wife and furniture to a boarder for i
sls, but in as much as the wife was j
neither real estate nor chatel, it was j
understood that he sold the furniture I
and threw her in for good measure.

It is said that the newly elected gov

May there not be something sinister
in the prophesy of Gov. Hughes'
friends that he will run like a race
horse this time.

A man in Texas is proclaiming that
if he was sure that marriage was a lot
tery, he would have his mother-in-law
indicted for running the one that ac
cepted him.
•••
The optomistic young man from
Centre county who thinks he is run.
ning for Congress in this district has a
most vivid imagination. When he is
in Centre county he imagines that he
is going to carry every county in the
district; when in Cameron he is sure
he will carry Centre, Clearfield and
McKean; when in Clearfield he tells his
friends that Centre, |Cameron and Mc-
Kean are his beyond question and
when in McKean he is dead sure that
Centre, Cameron and Clearfield will
give him big majorities. When the
election is over he will have a less viv
id imagination but will find that he has
gathered a large crop of very expen
sive experience and that Captain Bar
clay has the votes.
Congressman Barclay
At Republican Club
Distinguished Representative and
Other Party Candidates Ad
dress a Rousing Meeting.
Bradford Star, Sept. 25th.
The Hon. Charles F. Barclay, ofSin
namahoning, Cameron county, who so
well represented this district in con
gress was the guest of honor at the
meeting of the Bradford Republican
club last night at Repulican headquart
ers, No. 5, Congress street.
Mr. Barclay, the Hon. James A. Mc-
Kean, candidate for assembly, Candi
dates E. L. Marsh, John A. Peterson,
candidates for couuty commissioner,
and William H. Morrison, who is run
ning for sheriff, were also present to
meet the voters.
President Paton called the meeting
to order; there was a large attendance,
and it grew as the evening passsed.
Secretary Boardman read the minutes
of the last meeting, after which Presi
dent Paton announced that on Tuesday
next John Hayes Hammond, of Glou
cester, Mass., president of the National
League of Republican clubs would ad
dress a mass meeting at tbe Lyceum,
and that there would be another not
able speaker present, whose name he
would not yet announce.
Captain Barclay was introduced and
he made a good speech on party issues.
He the two presidential
candidates and characterized Taft as a
man of achievements and Bryan as a
man of wind.
Attorney Evan J. Jones, always a
witty and interesting speaker, livened
up the meeting with a good speech in
which he mixed wit with wisdom. J.
P. McNarney, of Emporium, was in
troduced and he made it plain to the
voters the importance of being up and
doing, and leaving no stone unturned
to get out the vote and see that the
vote was Republican. He said every
man liked to vote for a winner and
the way to do it was for every Repub
lican in the county to vote the Repub
lican ticket straight. If they all did
that they would have voted for the
winners.
Candidates James A. McKean and
W. H. Morrison delivered brief ad
dresses and were given rousing recep
tions, after which that prince of ex.
temporaneous public speakers, Col. M.
H. Houghton was introduced. The
colonel was at his best. The topic,
Republicanism, is dear to his heart
and he made a speech that fairly elec
trified the crowd. It was a thriller
and was puctuated with wit and satire
of the keenest. He was given an ova
tion in conclusion.
The candidates held an informal re
ception at the conclusion of the meet
ing.

Kmporiuni people testify to this.
Mrs. K. L. llendt, living on Fifth St.,
Emporium, Pa., says: Doan's Kidney
Pills have been of great benefit to me. I
suffered with a disordered condition of
the kidneys for years and the secretions,
were irregular and painful in passage. I
suffered with constant backache and pains
through my loins and was unable to rest
at night on account of these annoyances.
When I learned of Doan's Kidney Pills
I obtained a box from L. Taggart, the
druggist. This remedy gave me almost
immediate relief. My back does not
ache any more, I am able to sleeep well
at nights and the other symptoms have
disappeared. I obtained more relief in
a shorter time from Doan's Kidney Pills
than from anything else I ever used.
This remedy has my hearty endorsement."
