THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-THURSDAY, JUNE 15. 1899. 8 3 DEADLOCK AT HARRISBURG Concluded from Pago 1. judge. Ncnrly nix hours were consumed In tho lirellmlnary work of tho conven tion and between C o'clock and midnight, with un hotu's Intermission for nupper, tho delegates cast eleven fruitless ballots for a score or mora of candidates for that high nillcu, the deadlock at midnight being apparently as linn ua It wa- at G o'clock. When adjournment was had there wcro eleven candidates In tho Held with votcj ranging from 13 to "2, tho highest being n long way off from tho 218 necessary to elect. The determined battle arises from tho fact that tho nominee- Is sum to bo elected to servo twenty jcars. At this writing tho tight appears to have nar rowed down to Judge Kennedy, of Alle gheny, and Judgo Yerkes, of Uutks. Ilach Is on tho bench In his respective county. It Is bd!ced that one of these gentle men will be nominated in shoit order to morrow, although tho western friends nf Judgo Krcbs, of Clcnrfleld, refuse to concede tho defeat of their candidate Kx-Congressman Wolverton, who was considered a Htrong candlate, lost steadily In the last few ballots. (im did also Judges Uechtol, Allen and Albilght. With the supreme court Judgeship out of tho wny the rcmnlnder of the conven tion's work will probably be ellapo-jeel of by acclamation. Although tho heat of the convention hall was Intense, tho dele gates stuck to their work heroically and tho best of older and good feeling pre vailed. LOCATION OF BALLOTS.

A Hotter Way Now Discovered Which Cures Every Form of Piles Without Pain or In convenience. Jinny people suffer the pain, nnnoy anto and other serious results from piles for years, and after trying the many lotions, salves, ointments und tho many so-called cures without cure or relief give up tho hope of final cure, rather than to submit to the Intense pain and danger which a surgical oper ation Involves. Happily, all this suffering Is no long er necessary since the discovery of the Pyiamld Pile Cure; a remedy which Is approved by medical profession as belnc absolutely safe, free from all traces of opiates, narcotic or mineral poisons and which may be depended upon as a sure cure (not only relief) for any form of piles, whether itching, blind, bleeding or protruding. Some of the hundreds of cures recently made are a little short of marvelous, as a perusal of tho following will demon strate. Major Dean, of Columbus, Ohio, says: "I wish to add to the number of cer tlllcatcs as to the benefit deilved from tho Pyinmld Pile Cure. I suffered from piles for forty years and from Itching piles for twenty years and tho two boxes of the Pyramid Pile Cuio has effectually cured mo." Dr. J. W. llcngan, of Leonnrdvllle, Kan., writes: "I have used one box or Pyramid Pllu Cure and received mnio benefit and lellcf than from any remedy I have used In the past twenty years." James Jnmerson, Dubuque, Iowa, says: "I suffered from piles for six years: have Just used the Pyramid Pile Cuie and am a well man." -Mrs. M. C. Hinkly, C01 Mississippi St., Indinnapolls, Ind., says: "I have been a sufferer from tho p.iln and an noyanco of piles for fifteen years, the Pyiamld Pile Cure and the Pyramid PI1U gave me immediate relief and In a short time a complete cure." The Pyiamld Pile Cuie may be found nt diugglsts at 60 cents at $1.00 per package. A book on cause and cure of all forms of piles will be sent by mall, by addirsslng tho Pyramid Diug Co., Matahnll, Mich. was agiecil to allow the additional dele gates tents in tho convention.

Hlack, of Yoik; Pont7, of Lan CMhtcr. nnd Ilicnnen, of Allegheny. Jlr. lllley tald tho Democrats of tho t-tato are awaiting a dignified proclama tion of the will of jour majoiltj, and the redemption of IVnnlvanla from a char acter of rule which Is oppose d to tho genius of our Institutions and subserve of the b.ihlc and fundamental principles of our ilvie existence. 'i'ho repoit of the rcfolutlnns commit tee was read bv Charles Donnelly, of Philadelphia The report follows: Tho Platform, rirst Tho Democracy of Peunsjh.nla In convention assembled, again lem-wlng our pledges of fidelity and devotion to the sacied rights of the people, truo tei tho l.ilth and pilncljilcs of our party as Ue. cl.ned In tho platforms of our 5evei.1l national convention, and proud of uiir matchless leaelcr, William Jennings lirj an, realize that tho Issues Involved In tho coming campaign In Pennsylvania, aro honest government j clean politics and thei ledemptlon of our state from He publicau mlsrulo and corruption. Second Wo denounce the wholly un necessary Increase of public officials and petty clerkships In the several depart ments of tho state government, and the ui.Justlllnblo and unwaiiunted Increase of salaries. The pament of political ebll g.itlons In this manner out of the state treasury has already created a deficit eif over $1500,000, crippled tho public chari ties, robheel the public schools, and cnoi mouslv lncreared tho burdens of tho In dlvieluil taxpayers. Third We believo that the, most care ful provision should be mado 'for the cars eif tho unfortunate Insane of our state, and contend thut the cause of tho poor and the allilcted Is of far greater Impor tance to tho welfaie of the common wealth than Is the creation of new ofll eeis nnd tho Increase of olllclal salaries. Denunciation of the Governor. I'ourth Wo deiiounco tho Indecent haste dlplavcd and disrespect shown tho people by the! governor of tho stato in tho appointment to tho vacancy In the L'nlted States senate of M. S. Quay, who, to pi event a full Investigation before a Jury of his county, pleaded tho statute of limitations agalnn the most serious charges of crime In this appointment und the unwarranted reduction of tho public schools appiopilatlons, and his unauthorized veto of tho constitutional amendment resolution he has violated tho constitution, usurped nuthorlty nowheio gi anted hlra, nnd perpetrated wrongs against tho peoplo nnd tho stato th it demand his condemnation. Commend tho Democratic Legislators rifth Wo heaitlly nppiove of Hie course pursued bj the members of tho Demeicratie paity In tho houso and sin-ate- In the lust legislative session who contended for puilty and hone-sty In tho conduit ot 11 f falls and against coirup Hon anl public Jobbery, und commend their devotion to duty and the- hl'i standard of reform to which they havo have committed the Democratic paity. Sixth As a political oiganlzatlon, we nie committed to n thoiouf,h reform and promlso If entiustod by tho peoplo with the opportunity and power, to adminis ter tho stato treasury after clean and simple business me thods; for tho uel Mintugc of tho taxpayers of tho stato nnd prompt payment of school and charitable uppieprlations ns well as tho moneys duo the counties, nnd not to withhold them In tho banks for tho enrichment of the politicians. Seventh Wo ore committed to a thor ough purging of tho list of employes, clerks and olllelnls In the several depart ments, nnd tho elimination of all unnec essary employes, tho reduction of salaries nnd tho expense of tho departments which havo so enormously increased since tho administration of Governor Pattlson, Favor Revision of Tax Laws. eighth Wo favor a rovlslon of the tax laws nf tho state. In tho Interests of tho people, to the end that corporato prop erty may pay Its duo share, that mu nicipal franchises may bo valued and assessed as any other form of property, and that no Interest ihall be favored, but that all shall stand on an equality. Ninth We favor the adoption of such statutes as will prevent the further grant of municipal and other franchises, in per petuity, and will cnnblo the peoplo of tho municipalities- to derive u Just benefit and Income from this form of public propeity commensurate with the value thereof. Want Changes in Ballot Law. Tenth We favor a revision of the ballot law, maintaining its secrecy, simplifying the method of voting nnd protecting the voter against fruud and coercion. We also favor tho amendment of tho consti tution, so as to rcipilre a personal regis tration of voters In tho cities, and wo denounce Governor Stono for uttcmptlug, by his veto, to Interfere, without right or Justification, with tho leglslatlvo act passed for that purpuse, and tho at tempting to prevent tho pooplo from pass ing upon this Important matter. Demands Prosecution of Bribers. Llovcnth Wo demand tho Immediate prosecution of thnso found guilty of bribery, actual or attempted, In the elec tion of a United States senator by tho commltteo appointed to Investigate tho charges mado; and if found guilty by a trial beforo a Juiy, wo demand their sentence to the full penalty allowed by law. Twelfth Wo aro opposed to all com binations of capital calculated to pro dueo monopoly, or rc-Btraln tho idea ns being Inconsistent with the spirit of free Institutions; and If their establishment cannot bo constitutionally prevented, wo hold that they should ho so regulated and limited by proper legislation that Indi vidual effort and opportunity bhall not bo Impaired. Thirteenth Tho Democratic party pledging Itself and Its credits to a faith ful obedience to tho constitution nnd tho laws to the support of all measures In tended to securo free, fair nnd honest elections, to promote honest, cfllclent and economical administration In stato and municipal aftalrs, and to prevent tho use of public money, legislation or pat lon.igo for private profit, calls upon all good citizens to lay usldo all other ques tions nnd unite with It In tin effort to save tho state. Confidence in Committeemen Quffey. Fourteenth Wo hereby express our earnest admiration for and devotion to our present representative on tho na tlonil committee, tho Hon James M. Ouffey, who through his wise and pru dent advice and bis pre-eminent skill, energy and courage, reunited our party, and who, without hopo of levvnrd, has spent his time and substance for the wel lore of our state, for which our party should keep him In giatcful remem brance. riftccnth We glory nnd rejoice In tho patriotic dovotlon to tho cause of our country In tho late war with Spain of the brave and noble men who perilled their lives and shed their blood In order that a conflict waged for humanity's sako might bo brought to a speedy and tri umphant close.
