REPUBL1EANS0F JERMYN
A Great Mass Meeting of Unbridled
Enthusiasm.
SHOW LOYALTY TO THE TICKP.T
E.vLleutonunt Governor Stone, A. J. Col'
burn, Jr., ond W, Gayloid Thomas
Throw Side Lights on the Issues at
Stake - Frequent Appluuse.
The Republicans of Jermyn oppned
the campaign In a monster mass meet
ing In Windsor hull last night. Neurly
ull the party's candidates were present
und received a hearty ovation from an
audience that filled the seating capne
Ity of the commodious hall, and stood
about the rear wall. If there had ex
isted any doubt as to the party vote In
Jermyn and vicinity It was dispelled
by the enthusiasm and salvos of ap
plause that marked the progress of the
meeting, over which John McCarthy, of
Mayfleld, presided.
The speakers were Charles "VV. Stone
of Warren county, ex-lleutenant gov
ernor of the state, present congressman
from the Twenty-seventh district, and
a candidate for re-eleectlon; A. J. Col
born, Jr., und W. Gaylord Thomas, of
Scranton. There were a score of others
present ready to address the meeting,
but the list was restricted owing to the
lateness of the hour. The candidates
In attendance were: Clarence E. Pryor,
for prothonotary; Frank H. Clemona,
for sheriff; John H. Thomns, for clerk
of the courts; Joseph A. Scranton, for
congress; John R. Jones, fordistrlct. at
torney; James C. Vaughan, for senator,
from the Twelfth district;'' Charles P.
O'Malley, for the legislature from the
Fourth district; R. W. Archbald. for
judge; W. 8. Hopkins, for register of
wills.
Hogarth's band furnished the music
between the speeches and at other ap
propriate Intervals.
.Mr. Thomas Introduced.
Following an able Introductory ad
dress by Chairman McCarthy, the
speech-making was eloquently intro
duced by W. Oaylord Thomas. He par
ticularized the tariff principal of the
two large parties and explained the po
sition of the Democratic party in the
north by saying It was the tull being
wagged by the dog In the south. It Is,
he said, a house divided against Itself
and without nny one principle upon
which it can stand united.
At one point In Mr. Thomas' address
occurred an Incident which proved gra
tifying to the leaders present, if there
Is truth In the statement that the spirit
of a political community is shown in
Its enthusiasm for a resident candidate.
The speaker hud referred In glowing
terms to each member of the ticket and
was Interrupted by hearty applause.
When the name of Charles P. O'Malley,
candidate for the legislature from the
Fourth district, was reached, the cheer
ing and applause came in a sudden and
thundering outburst and continued at
Intervals during the ulluslon. Jermyn
was uncertain lighting ground in Mr.
O'Malley's contest for the nomination
and Is adjacent to Maylleld, the resi
dence of Mr. Turner, who sought a
place on the ticket. That the Jermyn
voters displayed such great enthusiasm
for the breaker boy was considered u
straw which showed tlw direction of
the wind.
Address by Mr. Stone.
Mr. Stone in his nddress gave a lucid
and forcible lesson on theissuesatstake
and held the sympathy and close atten
tion of his hearers without resorting
to the subterfuges of oratory. He said
tltot in campaigns past the voters had
no such definite purposes as now. A
Democratic or Republican ballot was
cast more as a matter of custom than
principle. Now the prosperity of the
nation Is at stake. Like their Buchan
nan of old the Democratic party is
today trying to delude the public with
side lBsues such as the American Pro
tective association. The population of
the nation increased from 1880 until
1S90 to such un extent that ten southern
states, or sixty of the greatest cities,
can now be stricken from the list and
the population will be approximately
the same as In 1880. During that period
under laws made by Republican
legislation wages, bank deposits and
manufacturing interests, all evidences
of prosperity. Increased to a propor
tionately greater extent than the popu
lation. Democratic speakers are gifted with
Sad memories who say that financial
distress began four years ngo. The
leading mercantile agency reports and
even the messuges of drover Cleveland
following his last Inauguration testi
fied that eighteen months ago the coun
try had not entered the throes of com
mercial agony. When you voters have
these facts staring you In the face you
must know that the present policy must
be changed. Never In parliamentary
history was there such a disgraceful
history as that which accompanied the
Wilson bill, the late Democratic meas
ure. Amendments in Senate.
In the senate it was subjected to C34
amendments and returned to the house
with a time allowance of one hour for
concurrance and debate, and with conl,
Iron and sugar on the free list. Mr.
Wilson, Its father, hurled defiance m
the senate, but later meekly submitted
and the bill went to the president dis
rupted and distorted by the party of
obstruction and destruction.
With such disruption is It reasonable
to suppose that we, as a nation and one
people, can regain prosperity until the
one party who has the courage of its
convictions is again In power? We
want the message to go out from Penn
sylvania to the world, as an appeal for
the proteotlve principles of the Republi
can party. Too much importance can
not be attached to the successful elec
tion of even one legislative candidate.
That one exponent of protection may
be the hinge upon which will swing a
nation's prosperity.
Seven southerners, five of them ex
confederates, were the majority mem
bers of the conference committee which
revised the Wilson bill. What practical
knowledge had these men of the needs
of the country, representing as they did
but one-ninth of the manufacturing in
terests of the country, and coming
for the most part from districts which
are decaying and decreasing In popula
tion and Industry? They are not bus!
nese men. All the important commit
tees have Democratic majorities, which
Is right and proper and exemplifies
the principles of our free government
In that the majority shall rule. But
when are added their mismanagement
and lack of knowledge of the country'
requirements and a tendency to legls
late solely for the benefit of their own
mallpartofthecountry.ltis more thnn
the public will bear.
How About the North ?
Free coal from Nova Scotia, free Iron
from England, free oil from Russia (It
U i now being mined In Russia at a cost
of f--pm one to eight cents per barrel
a..i?P0l'te.? ,n.t0 Calfrnla) may ben
efit the south, but how about Pennsyl
vania and the nation at large'
o'ke h'LBn.11U! of th rebellion who
followed their officers und found vlc
tory.will the voters of the United States
follow their leaders and find prosperity'
The audience had been ripened bv the
ncholarlyandtlnlshedeffortof Mr Stone
for the magnetic A. J. Colbum, jr who
with the hall In partial darkness, held
the undlmmed and undiminished atten
of the audience. Mr. Colburn said In
part:
"One of the prime principles of this
free country is not only that one man Is
as good as another, but that he in a
great deal better. At least he has the
right to think bo. Wo have the right to
Bpeak of the Wilson bill as a bastard
bill without a father or mother, unable
t.j beget posterity and no hopes of bring
ing posterity. Cleveland declared It a
child of perfidy and Gorman repudiated
it. At such a time has not the Repub
lican party a right to hope "
Lights Burned Low.
At this point the lights near the stage
burned low and left the hall In partial
darkness, but Lackawanna's versatile
orator was spontaneously equal to the
occasion and continued: '
"But thank God darkness does not
blind it; It has hopes of light and will
fight out the battle to that end" An
outburst of applause followed the allu
sion. "The Republican tariff for Instance
may be likened to a fence alluded to by
an old-time lawyer as 'horse high, hog
low and bull strong.' We have home
markets many billions of dollars greater
than the total market values of the
world. We propose to protect It with a
fence built so that no foreign horse can
cleur It, no pauper hog crawl under it
and no John Bull push it down. Abra
ham Lincoln's assertion that 'It Is bad
policy to swap hosses in the middle of a
stream' has been shown in the 'swap'
from Republican government to Demo
cratic misrule."
Anent the denial of M. T. Burke, pres
ent representative, thut he voted
against the Farr free text book law, Mr.
Colborn stated that Ink and records do
not lie. He read a letter from T. WJ
Fleltss to the effect that Mr. Burke not
only voted against the bill but worked
and spoke against It.
"It was a great period for Hebrew re
joicing," said Mr. Colborn, "when
Daniel was delivered from the lions'
den, but I believe It will be a day of
equal rejoicing when Daniel and the
Lyon are delivered into the reins of
government of this great state of Penn
sylvania." Mr. Colborn' concluded his
effort by alluding to the several county
candidates and when he had finished
it was the Impression that he had of
fered a great contribution toward party
success und substantiated his growing
reputation and popularity as one of the
state's lending orators.
The meeting adjourned as It began
amid expressions of loyalty and en
thusiasm. MONDAY'S BIG MEETINGS.

SHE WAS A CLAIRVOYANT.
But She' Couldn't Fool the Young Mun
with Her Lying Guesses.
From the Washington Post.
"That Is a sure sign of death," Bald
an elderly lndy who affected extreme
glrllshness, addressing a young man
and his wife, a petite brunette, by
the way, as they were standing near
the soutli entrance of the ISoldlers'
Home. The remark was occasioned
by hearing a passing horse utter a
mournful neigh. The young man re
plied that he thought the only sure
sign of death was the presence of
crupe on a doorknob. "I never knew
It to fall," said the elderly party, "and
I have been a clairvoyant for nearly
ten years."
She then Informed the young man and
his wife, whom she evidently mistook
for brother and sister, that her place
of business was on Prlncoton street.
"Now, you have a happy future be
fore you," she said to him; " you will
marry a tall, light haired girl with lots
of money." The young man turned to
his wife and winked the other eye.
"Your slBter, here," she continued,
"will have lots of trouble before she
marries, but she must be brave and
all will be well. Now, come down to
my house and I will tell you many
things of most vital Importance con
cerning both your futures."
"You certainly are wonderful," sold
the young man; "but I, too, am a for
tune teller."
"You?"
"Yes, I can tell anyone's fortune by
merely looking at the palms of their
hands. Give me your hand and I'll
show you."
He took ber hand and scrutinized it
closely, remarking about certain lines
and the Interpretation of them. "Lots
of trouble here you are married yes.
a dark man. You expect lots of money
some day." Then he stopped, and.
looking her square In the face, said:
"I find a line here that I hestltate to
tell you about; you might be offended
if I told you what it meant."
"No; tell me what It means," said
she, her curiosity fully aroused.
"Well," said he, "If you are sure yov
will not be angry I'll tell you. This
line, the one near the index finger,
says that you are much given to th"
habit of lying, because this young lady
is my wife and we have been mar
ried" But no more was heard by the for
tune teller, as she quickly withdrew her
hand and walked angrily away.
Fish Lggs.
Only the innumerable accidents to
which fishes' eggs are subject prevent
the overpeoplelng of all bodies of water
containing fish. A single carp has
yielded 300,00 eggs; a single cod 9,000,000;
a sole, 100,000; a mackerel, COO.000; a
flounder, 1,357,000; and a pike, 160,000.
The eggs of one sturgeon when counted
numbered 1,567,000, and there Is a tra
dition of a giant sturgeon from which
119 pounds of roe were taken. That
would indicate 7,ir0,00 eggs.
Remarked by R. C. Joiner, of Allen P.
0 Hillsdale Co., Mich.: "Nothing gave
my rheumatism such quick relief as
Dr. Thomas' Ecleotrlc Oil believe it In
fallible for rheumatics."

summer, and the many whoBe vucatlon,
instead of recruiting their strength.' has
only made increased demands on their
tired nerves and brain these unhappy
ones should take advantage of the brac
ing days and nights to store their bodies
with pure, vigorous blood and their
nervous system with energy before the
cold weather overtakes them in their
weak, "run down" condition.
Paine's celery compound should be
taken during the month of October. It
will build up the tired system wonder
fully. Increased appetite and steady
gain in weight during the month will
show unmistakably the stimulating ef
fect of this remarkable nerve food. To
MRS. WILLIAM M'COLLOM.
those who know anything of the work
ing and the purpose of the nervous sys
tem it is evident that the prompt feed
ing of the nerves with Paine's celery
compound must be followed by a de
cided gain In health and vigor of the en
tire system. There Is no organ of tho
body that is not controlled by the
nerves.
It is the putting off of attention to
the signs of heart weakness that fills thr
statistics with overwhelming numbere
of deaths from "heart failure." Those
who at once build up their strength and
nourish the feeble nerve-centers with
Paine's celery compound, check weak
ness of that Important organ as readily
as weakness of nny other part of the
body. This greatest modern invigorn
tor, discovered by a man whom Dart
mouth college Is most proud to honor,
Prof. Edward E. Phelps, M. D., LL. D.,
was welcomed os a more than extra
ordinary step In ndvance of anything
before at the command of physicians
for curing rheumatism, neuralgia, de
bility. Countless women, weak, thin,
mere bundles of nerves, and discour
aged by their Innbillty to gain strength,
have been started on the sure road to
recovery by Paine's celery compound.
Physicians prescribe It the world over.
Get strong and well with Paine's cel
ery comopund.
Here Is the experience of Mrs. Will
iam McCollum, of Trenton, Mo., who
says:
"I have had neuralgia for eight or ten
years. I began to think that eventu
ally it would cause my death. I would
have three or four awful attacks in a
month, and all the pain would settle In
the base of my brain, and extend down
my back, lasting several hours.
"We tried everything that we could
think of, but nothing did me any last
ing good until my mother came on n
visit and told me to try, Paine's celery
compound, as she was using It for nerv
ous trouble with wonderful success. We
both think your compound saved uf
from going crnzy. I only used two
bottles of It, but I have not had a re
turn of my old enemy since.
"One thing is certain, and that Is the
doctors could not do anything for me.
9ome told me It was caused by nerv
ous trouble, some said It was female
trouble, some said one thing, some said
another, but thanks to your wonderful
compound I am free once more. I have
often thought that I would write and tell
you what a relief It is to be free from
pain, but I neglected It from time to
time. You may believe that I shall al
ways speak a kind word for Paine's cel
ery compound.
