If he could read the utterances of some
of the recent Democratic gatherings he
would see no occasion to change his

Transports have ben provided to

duties on imports in England are as

every Briton.
As Kl.Kcnox time approaches, the
It -publican county ticket becomes more
and more popular. Those of the candi
dates who have visited Hie voters of
the county have wade a most favora
ble impression, and nothing but ex
pressions of good will are heard. The
ticket will be elected by a large ma
jority. Last year the "Socialist Labor" par
ty p lied 4.27, votes iu Pennsylvania.
Though this was not sulKcieut to entitle
the party to a place on the ticket this
year, its members think there are
enough of them for two parties, and
each of these parties has nominated a
State ticket by nomination papers.
Tue Dauphin commu pleas will be re
quired to decide which is entitled to
the party name at the head of the
ticket.
No max has had a better opportunity
to dctermiue tbe real facts regarding
the Philippines and Aguinaldo's course
than Hon. John Barrett, Minister to
Siam u ndcr President Cleveland. That
he has reached his conclusions which
are favorable to the cour-ie followed by
President McKinley is shown by a re
cant statement over his signature in the
Rjview of Reviews which says: "My
conclusion I have only reached after
in ist patient study, because I was loath
to believe it, and originally felt and ex
pressed much sympathy for Aguinaldo
and the insurgents."

the old rifle which has been hanging
on the wall since that little affair at
Majuba Hill, when England gave up
tbe attempt to conquer the Boer. And
yet, to the watcher of affairs iu the
Taansvaal it is apparent that it is only a
question of time when Ojui Paul, with
his people, will have to get out of the
way of the wheels of progress or be run

must yield.
It tvrns out that the attacks up

CaxuiuaTE CfcEaaY, t8 aspires to
be Treasurer of the great State of Penn
sylvania, should at least be honest in
liia eanvasf if Le can. Not long ago
he attended a meeting of old soldiers in
Columbia county, pays the Harrisburg
Telegraph, and told them what a good
friend he was to tbe veteran, but Lis
words were hardly cold before the
Bloomsburg Republican, published at
Creasy' home, pointed out the fact
that at a Democratic meeting a short
time previously Creasy bad attacked
the old soldiers' pension and denounc
ed them. If he calls that honesty, he
is welcome to do bo, but the average
old soldier is not going to be caught by
Mr. Creasy. There ia every reason to
believe that Creasy meant what he
said when he attacked the soldiers'
peusious. He has been a Democrat all
bis life and he comes from the famous
Fishing Creek district in Columbia
county, the only section of the patriot
ic State of Pennsylvania that during
the Civil War attempted armed oppo
sition to tbe L nited btatee Oovern-
ment. Creaey comes by his hatred of
the old soldier and his pension honest
ly, but he should not attempt to carry
water on both shoulder, for the veter
ans ar-- men of good memory.
Governor Stone has appointed J.
Hay Brown, of Lancaster, Republican
candidate for Supreme Court Judge, to
the vacancy on the bench created by
the death of Judge Henry V. Williams,
of Wellsboro. Mr. Brown is settling
up his private affairs so that be may
take bis seat when the court convenes
next mouth at Pittsburg.
Mr. Brown's appointment gives him
seniority over Judge S. L Mestrezat, of
Unioutown, the Democratic nominee
fir Supreme Court Judge, and prevents
Mestrezat from attaining the rank of
Chief Justice if Brown should serve
his full term. Judge Mestrezat will be
elected in Novemler by reason of two
vacancies on the bench, and no elector
b.-ing entitled to vote for more than
oiie -rson. H-- will take li is seat the
first Monday of January, when Chief
Justice Sterrett retires, and Judge
Green; of Easton, becomes Chief Jus
tice.
Ex Judge Nathaniel Ewing, of Un-
i intov n, Republican n wainee for the
vacancy in the Fayette district, crested
by the resignation of Judge Mestrezat
ami the promotion of Judge Keppert,
will not accept the Governor's otfer to
afKiiiit him ltfore the election. The
Judge Iw'ieves be can make a more ef
fective campaign off the bench than

Philadelphia. Sept. 26. Elaborate
preparations are being made for
the entertainment of the Tenth Penn
sylvania regiment, that participated
with Dewey in the campaign in Luzon,
while 'hey are here en route to the
demonstration in New York In honor
of the admiral. The "Fighting Tenth."
who were received with uch a glorioui
outburst of popular feeling in Pitts
burg, are going to have a similar re
ception in the Quaker City, the home
of American patriotism. They will
find that Philadelphia cannot be ex
celled in paying a tribute of regard to
the brave sons of Pennsylvania wno
went to the far off Philippines to de
fend the flag and give their lives if
necessary for the dignity and honor of
their country. No other state east of
the Allecheuies can claim the crertit
of bavin; a regiment in Luzon In the
recent struggles with the Spanish ana
the Filipinos. The "Fighting lentn
eturned home with a record exceuea
by no other command for discipline
and bravery in action. They were 71
days on the firing line, and the dead
they left in Luzon and the tattered
battle flag that they brought home

triotism of the resiment
Although Lieutenant Colonel James

the Republican nominee for state
treasurer, on account of bis health
liavlne been broken down from his
experience in the Philippines, it is be
lieved that be will be strong enougu
to make the trip to New York.
Philadelphia will maintain her repu
tation for hospitality when the boys
of tbe "Fiehting Tenth" reach here
this w eek. The Third regiment, every
man of whom, under Colonei Robert
Ralston, volunteered when the can
came from the president, in the Span
ish-American war, will be proud to
have the members of the Tenth as
guests. They will be at the station to
meet them on their arrival, and will
escort them to their regimental ar
mory and entertain them at supper.
After that there will be a series of
smokers" at convenient halls, each
company looKIng atter a company ui
the visitors for that occasion. The-
trical talent have been eugaged for
these events and they promise things
of marvelous interest to the visitors
from the west.
The following morning the visitors
will be escorted in a short street parade
to the grounds of the National Export
exnosition. Here they will be the
guests of the directors or the exisi
tion and will be royally received, as
will also the members of the Third
regiment. They will be accorded all
the courtesies of the big show, and will
be entertained at luncheon. The visit
to the exposition will be made the oc
casion for the presentation of the
bronze cannon, which was broutnt
from the Philippines by the regiment
to the city of Philadelphia. Mayor Asa
bridge will make an address in accept
ance of this trophy In response to the
M-esentation speech by Liei-tenant teal
onel Harnett Governor Stone, who
is to eo to New York to lead the Penn
sylvania troops in the Dewey parade
i3 elso expected to be here to receive
the Tenth regiment, and may make a
short address.
THE CITY TO DECORATE.
The citizens of Philadelphia want to
pay quite as much attention to the
Tenth regiment as was shown them in
the western section of the state. While
they are not bound by as close family
and other personal ties, they feel that
they represent in the hlehest degree
the patriotism and the fighting spirit of
the old Keystone commonwealth as
though they were all from the Quaker
City. Mayor Ashbndge will issue an
address to the people of the city to
appropriately decorate their dwellings
and places cf business, and to other
wise observe the occasion of the visit
of tbe only command east, of the Alle-
ghenies that went to the Philippines, in
a manner to maintain the reputation ot
the municipality for hospitality and
devotion to the welfare of the country
There can be no doubt of the inter
est taken bv the people In this event
In anticipation of the coining of the
regiment the municipal authorities
have directed that part of the decora
tions of the "Avenue of Fame, which
was erected for the convention of the
Grand Army of the Republic, shall be
maintained on Broad street. The Union
Ieagiie building has been beautifully
decorated for the evening and the ex
terlor has boon decked with hundreds
of electric lights. These globes form
an eagle and a shield in the nationa?
colors, and above them is the word
"Welcome," also fashioned In electric
bulbs.
Cards will be issued to the officers
of the regiment to the I'nlon League
the Art club, the Mercantile and othei
club bouses. The re? iment will be es
corted to the station for New York by
the Third, First and Second regiments,
of this city.
There is every reason to believe that
the visit of the Tenth to Philadelphia
will be made memorable In the history
of the regiment.
THE PLACE OF HONOR.
It Is projosed to give the boys of the
Tenth the right of the line or the renn-t-vlvania
division of the parade in New
York. It can be assumed that this reg
ment. being the only command thst
was with Dewey in the Philippines.
will receive mueh attention along the
line of march in Manhattan.
After the parace there will be an
interesting reunion of tbe land and sea
fighters, when the Pennsylvania sol
diers meet the men of the Olympia
Tbe cffiicre. sailors and marines oi
Admiral Dewe's Hagsbip have many
Interests In coinmon. They were often
together in Luzon. Tbe Pennsylvania
soldiers were frequent visitors to the
vessels of the fleet and they came to
know the men under Dewey almost
as well as they did those of the regi
ments that were assigned to duty near
them In tbe military operations on
land.
The question of whether the trip of
me lentn irom Pittsburg will be made
in the daytime or by night has not yet
neen settled. Some persons think that
the men should travel through Penn
syivania by day. In order to allow the
residents of the eastern part of tbe
state to see the soldiers. Others wish
to travel by nigh.

New York, Sept 5. In another three

time tbe Admiral and his officers and
crew of the Olympia will have met 5,000,
000 cheering Americans. In a sense the
entire nation will take part
Tbe crowds are here now. To-day the
streets were jammed. Broad way and
Fifth avenue at times were almost impas

on every lip. Never has New York
known such crowds, tuch wholesale prep
aration, such enthusiasm.

Wife Wat Drives Too Far.
Wilkrsharrk, Pa,, September 'it An
accusation of murder, made by aged Mrs,
Elizabeth Delamaler, against her hus
band, created a sensation iu court here to
day. She was prosecuting Delamaler for
threatening to kill her, and was on tbe
witness stand. Her husband's lawyer
said something to anger her, and tbeu she
blurted out:
"Who killed Durkin? You did," and
the wife pointed ber finger at ber hus
band.
Judge Woodward straightened himself
up in his seat District Attorney Martin
rose to inquire: "What's that?" and the
lawyers present pricked up their ears
Then Judge Woodward inquired, "Were
i - rir- t . i ... 1 f. . . nuthlaF in llifu (VIII r I
The prisoner replied that be had. Then
it was all plain to the Judge. Twenty
five years ago, when a young man, tbe
Judge assisted in prosecuting Delamater.
He had been arrested, charged with mur
dering and robbing Dr. Durkin, of Scran-
ton. Ihe Doctor went to bis room in a
hotel one night with fHCO in gold tied
around bis waist That night the room
was broken into,- the Doctor killed, and
his money taken.
Suspicion rested on Delamater. He was
traced to PlatUburg, N. Y., w here be was
arrested. He was brought back to Lu
zerne county, tried and couvicted of niiir
der iu the first degree. Powerful law
yers came to bis rescue and be was grant
ed a new trial. On tbe seioad trial he
was si-quitted.
After hearing Mrs. Delamater's testi
mony against ber husband, Judge Wood
ward advised then) to go borne and settle
their differences. He told them they
were too old to quarrel, and that tbe
Lord would soon separate them. The
case was then continued.
Aa Tsforgiving Mother.
New interest in tbe affairs of the Van
derbilta was excited Wednesday by a
story from Newport, apparently well au
thenticated, which throws a novel light
on the relations of tbe late Cornelius Van
derbilt and bis eldest son and namesake.
It is a story which many of those wbo
know the family and its peculiarities will
be quick to accept as true. It is said that
the quarrel over young Cornelius' mar
riage was realty not a quarrel letwe n
father and son, but between mother an
son. A woman's unrelenting hatred of
woman is given as the cause of all the
trou ble.
Mrs. Vaiiderbilt is alleged to hate the
Wilsons with an unutterable hatred, and
to entertain for her daughter-in-law an
unforgiving spirit It will be remeiu
be red that young Mrs. Cornelius Van
derbi.t did uot go to the funeral. It is
openly said in Newport that she was not
ill, but that ber reason for staying away
was tbe knowledge that she would not
be received by ber mother-in-law. It
was Mrs. Vanderbilt who ordered the
seuding of tbe dispatch calling Alfred
borne, after he bad been wired to con
tinue bis journey. He is ber favorite
son.

gnetts notable for social and military dis
tinction made the ceremony one of tbe
most brilliant ever w itnessed at Newport.
Tbe family and social connections of
the bride gave to tbe wedding a military,
as well as a diplomatic character, and
tbe little church in which it took place
was bright with blue and gold, the bride

of the home guard.

leadership of their party. The gold
Democrats are disgusted at the exhi
bition In Philadelphia a few days ago
when Dallas Sanders, who once held
tbe responsible place of chairman of
the Democratic state committee In
Pennsylvania, under the conservative
leadership of Samuel J. Randall, was
turned down ignominiously in bis as
pirations to go as a delegate to a local
Democratic convention, because It was
charged that he did not vote for Dryan.
Sanders was attacked in the most
shameful fashion, they say. and notice
was served upon all gold Democrats
that they were not wanted In the party
organization. Thh Incident has created
no end of adverse comment among
Democrats throug' out the state. It is
declared that this, with other insults
that have been heaped upon the sound
money men, will make the Bemoeratie
vote In Pennsylvania cut a sorry fig
ure at tbe coming election.
There bas been a great deal of talk
from State Chairman Rilling about na
tional Issues not bein? a factor in the
present campaign In Pennsylvania, but
every dny seems to make more conspic
uous tbe fact that Bryanlsm Is here to
stay, and that no Democrat who dors
riot bend the knee to the silver knight
of Nebraska need hope for recognition
or standing In the Democratic organ
ization. Business men who have here
tofore ben Identified with the Demo
cratic party are awakening to the fact
that the Democratic oreani.ution of
the counties and state Is as much in
syrnrnthy and accord with the move
ment for the renomlnation of Bryan
for the presidency as the most radical
and wild eyed of the rampant silver
ite3 of the mining distritt of the
Rockies. They are not unmindful of
the declaration of tbe Harrisburg state
convention which once more heralded
William Jennings' Bryan as "Our
Matchless Leader," and they k-" that
support of the Democratic state ticket
In Pennsylvania this fall means an
endosement of the Brvanlte program
for the presidential election of next
year. , "
GUFFEY'S DOUBLE R0LI3.
Colonel James M. Gufley, member of
tbe Democratic national committee
from Pennsylvania, has been confer
ring with bis lieutenants in Pittsburg
and Philadelphia. He is fresh from
the meeting of the executive committee
of the Democratic national commit
tee, which was held last week at Chi
cago. Colonel Guffey Is co-operating
heartily with the Bryanites. who are
in absolute control of the Democrat! :
national organization, and was present
when the national committee adopted
Its address to the Democracy of the
country. In which it said:
"The national committee of the
Democratic party in session at Chi
cago to consider the work of party
organization preparatory to the
campaign of 1900, sends greeting
to -ihe Democracy of the nation,
witVheassurancethat the prospect
of Democratic success next year
grows briehter evrv day. and we
have every reason for confidence aa
to the outcome.
"The creat need now Is party
unity and thorough organization.
The committee therefoie appeals
to our party friends In all s'atei,
and especially In the states where
elections are to be held this year,
to put aside all local differences
wherever they exist and support
tbe regular party tickets earnestly
and enthusiastically, keeping al
ways in view the great struggle of
next year, and re.nemberlng that
in unity there is strength and in
division weakness."
With, this appeal to Democrats to
stand by their party in the hope of
biiccess in next year's presidential
election still upon his lips. Colonel
Guffey returns to Pennsylvania to re
iterate to Republicans, whose support
be seeks for the silverite candidates on
bis state ticket, that "this is an oil
year cartfaign ia Pennsylvania. Na
tioual politics bas nothing to do with
thii canvass. Stale issues alone are
It volved. Republicans who want good
government should vote for the Dem
ocratic ticket."
But Republicans recognize the fact
that the greater the Democratic vote
in Pennsylvania this fall the more con
solation and encouragement will be
given Bryan to make another desper
ate dash for tbe presidency next year.
The greater tbe appeals of the Dem
ocratic national committee to Demo
crats of Pennsylvania to get together
for next year's battle the less consid
eration should Republicans give to the
sincerity of their campaign cry of this
being a stata issue contest in Penn
sylvania. Colonel GufTey Is not running the
Democratic campaign in this state thi.i
fall for nothing. No one better than
himself kuov.3 that there Is not the
ghost of a show for the election of
any man on the Democratic ticket in
Pennsylvania this year. He fully real
izes that Mr. Creasy, the nominee of
bis party for state treasurer, is prac
tically unknown to the voters of the
state. The latter has not during the
few years he served as an officeholder
at Harrisburg done anything to at
tract attention to himself beyond car
rying out the plans outlined by the
managers of the insurgent Republican
organization. He has not been af
filiated with the active Democracy of
the state and bas neither their sympa
thy nor hearty support in his present
can v ass.
WANTS TO BE SENATOR.
But Colonel Guffey has his own fish
to fry. He would, of course, like to
see a large Democratic vote polled this
fall, but he is more eager to divide the
Republicans wherever he sees It may
be to bis advantage in his aspirations
for the United States senate. This is
the meat In the political cocoanut
which Colonel Guffey Is giving his at
tention to In this campaign. He wants
to divide the Republicans as much as
possible. In order to help bis canvass
for the United States senate. He bas
, mapped out a great scheme for fusion
tickets for the legislature next year
ly which he hope to defeat rejulat
i Republican nominees for tbe senat
ana me nouse. mis aaaress mienoea
particularly for tbe voters of Chester
county, endorsing the fusion movement
in that county this fall, was designed
to further tbe cause of the combina
tion of the Democrats and disgruntled
Kepuhlicaris. who have a fusion on h?
county officers. Owing to a similar
combine in this coiin'y last fall, the
Democrats succeeded in capturing two
of the four members of the l-Tia'ature
from Chester, which ordinarily ought
to be a stalwart Republican county.
Guffev is pursuing the same tactics
throughout the state, and whenever te
sees a cbame to divide tbe Republi
cans locally he givei the Democrats
all the encouragement possible. 1 here
will be show of fiehting for the state
ticket but with the Republicanism of
tbe commonwealth aroused and a gen
eral determination to support the Mf
Klnlev administration In its war rliT
tbe iiemocrats realize that they hav?
no chance of cbx ting any one ou their
state ticket. Tbey will, however, in
local struggles do all in their power to
disrupt the Republican organization lu
the hope of helping Guffey in his sen
atorial canvass.'
BRYANISM RAMPANT.
Mawarhii!rtt Peniocrst ilve the
I.lc to State las u. Talk.
The Democrats here In Pennsylvania
tell us that "only s'ate issues" are In
volved in the campaign, and that ab
solutely nothing will be at stake na
tionally until next year, says the Phil
adelphia Inquirer. It is not so. How
can it be, when everywhere elso the
lines are drawn strictly and victory is
to le won or lost on the policies of
McKinley and the Republican pa"ty?
Indeed. Massachusetts bas actually
opened the presidential campaign by
electing 3rt delegates to the next na
tional conveutiou. every one of tbpm
instructed for Bryan. It r.-as not done
without turmoil and strife, for it was
only decent, proper and regular that
natioual delegates should be elected
at the state convention of next year,
but tne genuine Democrats In the con
vention, by the aid of tbe police, weie
howled down and Ceor?e Fred Will
iams bad bis way. Free silver at 10
to 1. the destruction of trusts and so
called imperialism" were the main
plauks of the platform. The old Chi
cago platform was endorsed, and the
convention fn.'d cf it:
We pronotime that political code
one written not for a year or for a
single campaign, but for all time,
being made up as it is of the fun
damental principle of Iiemocracy,
upon the acceptance and enforce
ment of which alone a free govern
ment of, by and for the people can
Le maintained.
Here In Pennsylvania th:;t same plat
form was endorsed, and Bryan was ac
cented as the "matchlejj leader." But
it is "only a state issue" iu the cam
paign here, so the Democrat tell us.
They are more honest in Massachu
setts, and they are deadly in earnest
there and in Nebraska and Ol-.io. and
everywhere else for Bryan. It U only
here in Pennsylvania that they try to
pull the wool over the eyes of the peo
ple. It must require a deal of couraga for
an honest Democrat in these days to
acknowledge allegiance to his party.
Listen, for instance, to this malicious
harangue from one Christopher T. Cal
lahan, who presided temporarily over
the Massachusetts convention:
If ever murder was committed
In the name of war, the bands of
. the Republican party are now. in
deed, dripping red with it. Crying
Christianity, they preach the doc
trine of might against right.
Now compare this speech with the
address issued by the Anti-Imperialist
League, which Is to hold a confer
ence in Chicago on Oct. 17. to plan for
the further spread of its treacherous
doctrine and to "crystallize opposition
to the president's policy." It says:
It is true that In doing this the
antl-imDeriaiist3 must denounce
Mr. McKin'.ey individually because
be unlawfully Initiated the slaugh
ter in tbe Philippines, by his dec
laration of war, Deo. 21. 1898. at a
time when the United States was
solemnly bound by the protocol to
preseive the status.
What an infar.iou3 lie that is!
No Republic an w ill ac cept it for ar
instant, and what genuine Democrat
can? And yet the Bryan convention of
Massachusetts ei id so.
This anti-imperialist doctrine I.;
Bryaais:n pure and simple.
They understand it very well out in
Nebraska, and how dignified is the re
ply of the Nebraska Republicans to
the attitude of Bryan's followers! Tha
Republicans say of the war In theii
platform:
While we deplore the insurrec
tion in the Philippines, yet we rec
ognize the duties and obligations
imposed upon our nation by the
vic tory of our navy and the match
less valor of our arms, resulting
In the treuty of Paris, which im
posed upon the president the duty
of maintaining the authority of tbe
United Slates ever the territory
acquired thereby, and so long as
there is one gnu pointed at an
American soldier, so long as there
Is an armed enemy assaulting our
flag, so long must patriotic and
loyal Anieiicans uphold our presi
dent in effecting protection, tran
quility and peace to all who rccog
nize our lawful occupation.
That is yatrlotism and honest
Which is tbe higher type of America
citizenship, that represented by th
Nebiaska Republicans or that of tb
Massachusetts Democrats and til
Anti-Imperialist league?

"1 am very grateful to you for your
kindness and the interest you have
taken in me, and truly believe your
medicines and advice are worth more
to a woman than all the doctors in the
world. For years I had female troubles
and did nothing for them. Of course
I became no better and finally broke
down entirely. My troubles began
with inflammation and hemorrhages
from tbe kidneys, then inflammation,
congestion and falling of the womb
and inflammation of ovaries.
" I underwent local treatment every
day for some time; thn after nearly
two months the doctor gave me permis
sion to go back to work. I went back,
but in less than a week was com
pelled to give up and go to bed. On
breaking dow n the second time, I de
cided to let doctors and their medicine
alone and try your remedies. Before
tbe first bottle was gone I felt the ef
fects of it Three bottles of Lydia E.
Pinkhani's Vegetable Compound and a
package of her Sanative Wash did me
more good than all the doctors' treat
ments and medicine.
"The first remark that greets me
now is 'How much better yon look! and
you may be sure I never hesitate to tell
the cause of my health." Una. E. J.

The epidemic of small pox la-ct wiuter

tbe prevalence of that dreaded and loath

The Ac-t of May 11. 1MH, creating
Boards of Health in Boroughs, So. lion

make all needful rule and regulations to

The Act of April II. ISO, is intended,

to proceed npoo that assumption and
