1/IU SAYS HE
WILL ENTER RACE
Lancaster Mayor Candidate For
Nomination For the Lieuten
ant Governorship
Frank B, McClaln, Mayor of Lan
aster and as well known here as in
lis own county of Lancaster, last
light announced that he would be a
andldate for the Republican nomina
tion for Lieutenant-Governor. The
ormer Speaker said that he was a live
candidate and his friends say he will
not have much opposition.
No opposition has appeared to Dr.
Brumbaugh for Governor, and it is be
leved that he will go to the primary
without any fight. The Dtmmick peo
ple are for him and when he is nomi
named Republicans, Democrats and
Progressives will line up behind him.
This is the formal statement issued
yesterday by Mayor McClain:
"I am a candidate for the Republi
can nomination for lieutenant-gover
nor at the coming State primary eleo
tion.
"My candidacy has no 'strings' to it
and different from most other candi
dates I have no personal platform to
submit, but will stand or fall upon the
platform of the Republican partv in
Pennsylvania when the same shall
have been promulgated by the Repub
ican State committee.
"If I should be fortunate enough to
he nominated and elected lieutenant
governor, I will try to 'prove up' to
'he best traditions of that dignified
station. My aim will be the same as
when I was Speaker of the Pennsyl
vania House of Representatives in
1907. to see that the masses of the
people, insofar as !t lies in my power,
a 'square deal.' "
In commenting upon the policv out
'tned above Mayor McClain said:
"The Republican voters at the com
ng primaries will in each Senatorial
district eteot two State committeemen.
These men will come directly from the
For Mine"
Many a man and woman with coffee troubles lias found
that Postum is a snre and pleasant way to health.
A doctor writes:
"I have been using Postum for the last seven or eight
year* and think it has had a good deal to do with my
looking younger than 55 years of age.
"I recommend it to all my patients, and those who have
been using It have only praises for its taste and its good
eftects on their nervous systems; like me they have given
up tea and coffee altogether."
Postum is a pure food-drink made oi wheat and a small
j proportion of molasses—roasted and skillfully blended. It is
j absolutely free from the coffee drugs, caffeine and tannin—
| common causes of heart, stomach, liver, kidney and nerve
! disturbance.
Some people marvel at the benefits from leaving off
coffee and using Postum. but there is nothing nyirvelous
about it—only common sense.
Postum now comes in two forms:
Regular Postum—must be boiled. 15c and 25c pkgs.
Instant Postum—a soluble powder, requires no boiling.
A spoonful stirred in a cup of hot water makes a delicious
beverage instantly. 30c and 50c tins.
The cost per cup of both kinds is about the same.

people and will be in a position to
know the wishes of the Republican
voters and to frame a platform that
will conform with their wishes. lam
prepared to stand upon such a plat
form."
"What about your attitude on the
United States Senatorship?" he was
asked.
"I am a candidate for lieutenant
governor and as such shall not take
sides in any contest for any other
nomination at the Republican pri
mary," promptly replied the speaker.
"But bear in mind," he quickly add
er. "1 shall support all of the nominees
who shall be successful at the Repub
lican primaries from United States
senator down."
Mr. McClain has been a conspicu
ous figure in State politics for many
years. He was born in Lancaster City,
April 14, 1864, is a graduate of the
Lancaster high school and has been
engaged in the livestock business,
which has brought him in touch with
the granger interests. He is also well
known from his contributions to agri
cultural journals upon the subject of
the care of 'live stock. He served in
the House of Representatives from
1595 to 1910, when he resigned to be
come mayor of Lancaster, in which
position he is now serving his second
term. He was Speaker of the House
during 1907.
Fumigate Engineers'
Club; Laundress
Had Scarlet Fever
Mrs. Mary Farrell. 1244 Market
street last night went to the Harris
burg Hospital suffering with a very
sore ear. Dr. John M. J. Ratinick
happened to be present. Dr. Raunick
as ever didn't forget that he was sec
retary of the Board of Health of
Harrisburg. Hence his interest in the
pathology of the sore ear.
He investigated and found that the
patient was. suffering with scarlet
fever in a mild form. With this Dr.
C. E. Jauss concurred. Quarantine
was at once imposed on the patient's
home in Market street. Mrs. Farrell
is a laundress at the clubhouse of the

sary last night to fumigate that build

National Issues in
New Jersey Campaign
By Associated Press
Paterson, X. J„ March 25. The
nomination of four candidates for the
seat in Congress left vacant by the
death of Representative Robert G.
Bretnner, Democrat, of the Seventh New
Jersey District, opens here the first po
litical campaign involving national is
sues that has been wager since the en
actment of the new tariff bill and the
other important Federal-legislation un
der the Wilson administration.
The result of the election, on April 7,
is awaited as the tirst indication by
ballot of how these changes suit the
American voter.
At yesterday's primaries the Repub
licans divided nearly 9,000 votes among
eleven candidates and chose Dow H.
Drukker by a plurality of 1,203 over the
nearest candidate. The Democrats se
lected James J. O'Byrne, secretary to
United States Senator Hughes, by 438
plurality. The total Democratic vote
was 4,500, divided among five candi
dates. The Progressives polled 400
votes, and the Socialists .700, but each
of these parties put up only one can

as happened n I§9o, when its chief
was deposed and thereupon started
a new order, the Woodmen of the
World. Xo, the battle, while waged
hotly, will be conducted, as far as
possible, without actions that would
lead to this result, but it will none the
less be a battle royal.
Money Is Involved
Owing to the strength of the order
in Illinois, quite naturally the head
offices of the company went to Kock
Island. But, it is asserted, the Illinois
members have been altogether one
sided in the disposition of the wealth
iof the order and its offices. All the
money of the order, amounting to
sums far up into five figures, are dis
tributed in Illinois banks, and seven
tenths of the offices of the order are
held by. Illinoisans. Another reason
is an attempt on the part of the State
of Illinois to tax the reserve funds.
This state of affairs has been a thorn
in the side of the Eastern members of
j the order for some time. There has
been nothing underhand in the tactics
of the Eastern group and the future
How to Keep Well in Winter
Do not let your blood get thin this
winter. For people.who have a ten
dency toward anaemia, or bloodless
ness, winter is a trying season. Lack
of exercise and fresh air, the more re
stricted diet, many things combine to
lower the tone of the body and de
plete the blood.
As soon as you notice the tired feel
ing, lack of appetite and shortness of
breath that are warning symptoms of
thin blood take a short treatment of
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Do not wait
until the color has entirely left your
cheeks, until your lips are white, your
eyes dull and your ears like mother
of pearl. It is so much easier to cor
rect thinning of the blood in the earl
ler stages than later.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills build up
the blood and strengthen the nerve*
in this way the general health is im
proved, the appetite increases, the di
gestion is strengthened and new am
bition and energy developed. Work
becomes easier because it does not
cause exhaustion.
Keep your system at its highest effi
ciency with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
the great blood builder and nerve
tonic. Tour own druggist can supply
you. A booklet "Building Up the
Blood" will be mailed free on request
by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co..
