Frank Carson, ol Philadelphia, De livers an Eloquent Address in the Interest of Sound Money. Special to the Seranton Tribune. - Forest City, Pa., Aug. ill. Friday evening a monster demonstration in behalf of protection and sound money was held in Davis' opera house at this place. K. Frank Carson, esq., of Phil adelphia, was the speaker of the even ing. He arrived at the Ontario and Western station In this city yesterday at p. m. The following Republi cans formed his escort to the Davis house: T. C. Manger, Benjamin Maxey, P. J. Osgood, W. J. Maxey. It was intended that the addresses should be made from the Davis house porch but In accordance with the speaker's de sire arrangements were made for hold ing the meeting in the Ouera house. The Vundllng band furnished music; for the occasion. At S.oll F. J. Osgood culled the meeting to order and an nounced that W. J. Maxey would not as chairman. The following were In vited to take seats on the platform: Benjamin Maxey, William Hrydeii, William Anderson, John R. Htidd, Oeorge Maxey, Jr., C. K. Taylor, T. C. Manger, A. L. Morgan, K P. Ames. In un appropriate address W. J. Maxey then Introduced Mr. Curson. The fcpeuker stated In opening that he gave his consent to the state commit tee to enter their service during the campaign because he was impressed with a sense of public duty, und with the fact that national honor, credit, prosperity and the perpetuity of our in stitutions were at stake. He continued by discussing the platform of the Democratic- parly on the subject of linance. und guve u review of the history of the coinage of the l.'nited Slates. In discussing the so-culled "crime of '"3" he showed how those who drew the uct and took part in the debate secured Its pussuge and what they said and did, quoting especially Secretary Boutwell, and showing that it simply enacted in to written law the unwritten law of forty years, He also quoted Congress men Kelly nnd Hooper at dllferent times during the disc ussion, the former being chairman of committee on coin age, weights and measures. Secre taries Manning nnd Windoin, of the treasury, were also quoted. The quo tations of Senators Junes and Stewart, of Nevada, now prominent Mlveiiies, was uddined, proving that these gen tlemen were among the most prominent of the gold standard advocates of 'VS. The speaker thus clearly demonstrated that il wus not In 'IS thut sliver was demonetized but, instead, In the ad ministration of DemocratlcPlerce and for the good purpose of keeping silver in the country, the same reason thut induced Jctl'erson In ISiiti to discontinue the coinuge of silver dollars. In fact silver by its Increased output demon etized itself. The discussion then proceeded to the meuuing of IV to i, showing thut the silveiites of today wish to establish now the same rallo us existed com mercially In IX'.'.i, while the commercial I alio of toduy Is ill to I. The injurious effects of this on the worklngnieii und upon those who bud savings in bunks, Induced by the use of coca, opiate or nar cotic compounds is bad, decidedly bad. They undermine health and shatter the constitution and the patient is steadily growing into a worse condition often resulting in the terrible slavery and misery of the cocaine aud opium habit. Sleep induced by the use of Hood's Harsa parilla does not perhaps come as quickly, but it comes more surely and mora per manently through nature's great restor ing and rejuvenating channel purified, vitalized aud enriched blood. This feeds the nerves with life-giving energy aud builds up the system aud coustitution from the very foundation of all health and life the blood pure, rich, red blood.

SSeei u loan associations, etc., were then pic tured. The speaker declared thut free coinage at IS to 1 meant silver mono metallism and that the p repent Demo cratic platform meant repudiation, rev olution and ruin to our institutions. Ha then showed that the present unfortu nate conditions were due not so much to unwise silver legislation aa to un wise legislation on tariff; that the Wil son bill, repealing the McKinley bill, brought ruin to manufacturers aud employes and a deficit to the national treasury, not a surplus as under the McKinley tariff. t The government by the Republicans was then contrasted to that of the Dem ocrats, showing that during; the twenty eight years of the former's rule. 1SC5 to 1SU3, there never existed a deficit and that three billions of dollars of war debt were paid, while during the three and one-half years of Democratic rule the national debt was Increased $-62,-000,000, or a monthly deficit of tl3.0U0.0U0 Incurred. He then declured Balne's epi tome of the Republican platform of '84 to be applicable to the Kepublicun plat foin of '6, "peace to the whole world;" "commercial expansion of the United States," "protection to American indus tries;" "protection to every citizen, na tive or .naturalized." . Mr. Curson closed with an appeal to all not to be citizens of a section but citizens of the whole country, to work together for common advancement. An hour wus consumed In the deliv ery of the address. Mr. Carson puid splendid tributes to those Republican fathers, Lincoln and Oat-Held, and elo quently denounced the present admin istration for allowing an ex-rebel gen eral to haul down the American flag at Honolulu. Aside from the above the address wus an able presentation of indisputable facts, followed by correct conclusions. It was an address such as Is desired by the voters iti this cam paign. A few left the hall during the speech, thereby demonstrating they did not wish to be honestly shown the er or of their ways. "Though you bray a fool in a mortar among wheut with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness de part from him." PK1CEBUKG. The coming school term will com mence here on Monday, Aug. 31.

From eyery city, town and hamlet on thia vast continent, come letter from Buffering women; from those whose physicians have been unable to assist them, or from that num berless class whose confi dence in Mrs. Pinkham's ad vice and the curative prop erties of her Vegetable Compound is unbouuded. Every letter received from wo men is recorded, aud hundreds of volumes of cases treated aid in fur nishing practical information for the women of to-day. No letters are published without the request of the writer. The strictest confidence is observed. The following letter represents thousands : " I always enjoyed good health un til six mouths before the birth of my babe. Then I was very weak; my back ached all the time. My physicians said I would be all right after the birth of the child, but I was not, although at that time I had the best of care. The puins in my back were almost un bearable. 1 had leueorrlicca iu its worst form; menstruations were pain ful. "Any work or care would entirely unnerve me. When my babe was 11 months old, friends persuaded me to take Lydia K. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Before I had taken one bottle I felt the effects. My back did not ache so badly, and I felt stronger. After taking four bottles I felt well. My ambition returned, menstruations were painless, leucorrhica entirely cured, and I could take care of my babe aud do my housework. I shall always recommend your Vegetable Compound for all women, especially for young mothers." Mas. II. L. tiooi.u, Oregon, Wis. If Mrs. Cioold hud been well before the birth of her child, subsequent suffering would have Wen avoided. Lydia K. Pinklmm's Vegetable Com pound should always be taken before and after birth, lu order that the system muy withstand the shock.
