Kansas City, Kans., Aug. 38, 1900. I take pleasure In stating that I have used War ner's Safe Cure extensively lor the last ten years in my practice. Among the many remedies employed, I have found nothing that has given such gratifying results in all cases of KIDNEY AND BLADDER TROUBLE. ' In severe cases, in almost every Instance, I have had to resort to Warner's Safe Cure before effecting a permanent cure. I am happy to say that it is reliable, not only as a Kidney and Bladder regulator, but it acts as a general tonic as well, the most delicate stomach being able to tolerate it. In many cases of FEHALE TROUBLE I have used it with marked success. I feel Justified in stnt. Ing there is no other known remedy that can equal it in all Kidney or Bladder Troubles. Very sincerely yours, E. J. WOODROW, M. D. tCFico sample of Warner's Safe Cmo sent on application. Address, WARNER'S SAFE CURE CO., Rochester, K. Y. CARBONDALE. CHIEFS RAISED.

Special to tlie Scranton Tribune. Tunkhannock, Oct. 4. The Wilkes Barre Iteeord of October i lias the fol lowing to say In regard to the sena torial situation In this district: "If Is reported that B. W. Lewis, of Wyoming county, who was sot up by tho Quay machine to antagonize the candidacy of Mr. Kdmiston, of Brad ford county, for state senator, has be come disgusted with the scheme and will withdraw. If Mr, Lewis takes this step he will show his good sense. Mr. Edmlston was duly nominated by the Republicans of Bradford in a square battle with the machine, and Is en titled to the support of the party, If Mr. IjwIs wanted to be a candidate he should have gone before the peoplo of the district as Mr. Edmlston did. His friends are surprised that he listened for a moment to the scheme of the Quayltes." Tho above statement shows a .won derful Ignorance on the part of the Record In regard to the situation, m tho first place Mr. Lewis was not nut up by tho Quayltes for tho purpose of defeating Mr. Edmlston, but on the contrary was nominated as the choice of Wyoming county at u convention held at this place in March last, long before Mr, Edmlston's candidacy was heardof. In the next place Mr. Ed mlston did not go before tho people of tho dlstilct In any sense. He wos the choice of Bradford county for the otllcu as Mr, Lewis was the choice of Wyoming county, Mr, Edmlston was not nominated us u candidate nt the Wyoming county convention, nor was Mr, Lewis a candidate ut the Bradford primal les, and the peoplo of tho dis trict have had no oportunlty to ex pi ess a preference between the two candidates. The Record seemis to think that Bradford county composes the twenty-third senatorial district. Last ly, Mr, Lews does not Intend to with draw, but on the contrary goes to Har rlsburg today with his witnesses where tho contest for the nomination will be decided by the court of Dauphin coun ty, If the contest Is decided In favor of the Bradford county candidate t Is the Intention of Wyoming to support tho regular Republican ticket, but Mr! Edmlston, following the regulation In surgent tncttcfl. will bolt the regular Republican ticket, In case ho should nob be nominated, and wilt run Inde pendently under the designation of Honest Government party. Tho Record loses sight of thf renl Issue Involved n the present fight, That Issue Is the 'right of Wyoming county to have the nomination for the ofllce of senator ns often ns the proportion of her Repub lican vote of the whole district would entitle her. Bradford hns about 9,000 Republican votes and Wyoming nbout 2,000. This should entitle Wyonilng to tho nomination once In from llfteen to twenty years. Since the district wns set off. In 1874 Bradford has held the nomination nnd further gives notice that she Intends to hold It Just ns long as she can do so, and under tho circum stances, there seems to be nothing for Wyoming county to do hut fight'. TEMPERANCE MEETING. Eleventh Annual County Conven tion of W. C. T. V, at Factory ville Programme Rendered. Speclat to tlie Scranton Tilbtine. Pactoryvllle, pct. 4. The eleventh annunl county convention of ths Women's Christian Temperance union was held in the Baptist church last Wednesday and Thursday. The con vention was called to order Wednes day afternoon promptly at 1.30 o'clock by County President Mrs. G. B. Ma thews, of this plac;. Many visiting delegates and members of the numer ous unions throughout the county were present, and prepared for the work allotted for each to do at this time. The principle featuress of tho Wednesday afternoon programme were the papers read by Mrs. Wilson Stark and Mrs. Charles Freeman, and the ad dress by Rev. J. W. Putnam, D. D., of New' York. Wednesday evening's programme was the most important of the entire convention, It being the. time set for the oratorical medal 'contest. Six young lady contestants entered, and eaclt contestant did credit to their subjects, and it would be very hard to make special mention of any of them. The judges awarded the beau tiful gold medal to Miss Marlon Leigh ton, of Tunkhannock, there being less than one point between Miss Lelghton and Miss Agnes Button, of this place. The judges in the contest were Prof. D. C. Roe, of the Factoryvllle graded schools: Miss Hartley, of Keystone Academy, and Mrs. G. R. Smith. The capacity of the church was taxed to accommodate the people on this occasion. Thursday morning's programme consisted of roll call, re ports of ofllcers, election of ofllcers, etc. A very carefully prepared paper on "The Evils of Cider Making and Drinking" was read by Miss Margaret Fassett, of Forkston, Pa. Mrs. F. M. Osterhout sang very sweetly a solo with a duet. At noon dinner was served by the Ladles' Aid society for ten cents, and a bountiful repast was furnished .by those faithful workers. The principal eventn in the pro gramme Thursday afternoon were a recitation, "The Two Portraits," by Miss Bessie Spence-, in her pleasing and captivating manner, and the re ports of County Organizer Mrs. D. C. Roe. Mrs. Roe said, in part, that there had been in the past year about 150 new members taken into the union throughout the county, and three new unions organized, one at East Lemon, one at Forkston, and one at Eaton 'vllle: also one reorganized at Nichol son.' The old county officers were unanimously re-elect3d for one year. The next mid-year convention was decided to be held at Mehoopany, and the place of holding the next annual convention was not decided upon. Prof. W. N. Manchester had charge of the musical part of the programme throughout, which accounted for the fine music which was rendered during the convention. It was unanimously voted that this was the most success ful and the largest convention that tha county officers and members of the union have ever held. THEATRICAL. ATTRACTIONS THIS WEEK.

The audience assembled appeared to be composed almost entirely of the clement In search of something nasty, and the wuier tho broad jokes and coarse songs approadicd obscenity the more vigorous were the eildtntes of appieciatlon on part of the listeners. The perforniam e of "Utile Kgjpt" was a fitting flnlsli to thu programme.
