LOCAL ornoNisrs ARE
GAINING, SAYS GOVERNOR
Dr. Brumbangh Declares Inroads An
Being Made on the Opposition
Both in Senate and House—Special
Trains to Bring Crowds Tuesday
Among tbosv who are taking au ac
tive part iu Governor Brumbaugh's
campaign for local option is .1. Denny
O'Neill, Commissioner of Allegheny
county, who is given to making temper
ance speeches ou the slightest provo
cation. With T. Larry Eyre, of Ches
ter, the two will make a team that
knows the political and legislative
game clear through.
Governor Brumbaugh last night gave
this review of the local optiou situ
ation:
'•We are winning all the time. Wo
are gaining groan.l every minute. With
iu the last week a great change has
come about in the situation right here
in llarrisburg. Inroads have been made
both iu the House auil Senate.
"This change is due to the fact that
! legislators are getting the right point
.if view. Tliev are realising that it is
not a thing to be settled on the basis
of either wet or dry. They are appre
ciating the fact that it is a funda
mental right that the people should
settled their own affairs. It is the
right of the" people to rule.
•'•They are realizing that there are
two distinct questions involved in lo
cal option. One, as I have stated, is the
Tight of the people in local communi
ties to pass upon the liquor question.
The other is thnt it should 110 longer
be a burden upon the shoulders of the
judiciary. It is a crime to lay it at
the door of the Judges. It has been in
cumbeut ou the judiciary.
''The great controlling principles
that govern the question are begiuning
to operate. We are beginning to see
that as a fundamental right the issue
should be lifted out of partisan poli
tics. It never should have been in par
tisan politics. It is a shame that it
has not been tukeu out of politics long
ago. These are hard-headed facts.''
In Philadelphia special arrangements
are being made th send a large delega
tion of local option friends to Harris
burg next Tuesday. Many of the large
industrial establishments will shut
down for the day to enable their em
ployes to come to Harrisburg, and some
of the establishments will pay the ex
penses of the men. Special trains will
leave Philadelphia on Tuesday— morn

Brumbaugh to Make Speech
"The commanding figure of next
Tuesday's meeting and the man
around whom the whole interest of the
State will revolve, will be the Gov

local option ever since he became a
candidate for the great office he now
hold*. It is upon his invitation that
the great crowd will come here next
Tuesday to help hint redeem a sacred
campaign pledge, and it is Governor
Brumbaugh who will be one of the
speakers'at the night meeting in the
vast Chestnut street auditorium.
"The plans for the day as now ar
ranged, call for a mass meeting in the
Chestnut street auditorium at 10.30

House of Representatives before the
House l«aw and Order committee,
which has the bill in charge and the
great mass meeting to be addressed by
the Governor and others, in the even

be represented in the list of speakers,
as well as in the throng which will re

"Plans are being made in every
county in the State for great numbers
of the constituents of the members to
call upon them personally and demand
that they vote for the Governor's
local option bill."

PRAISE SIMPLE MIXTURE
Many in Harrisborg praise the simple

is the most THOROUGH bowel cleanser
ever sold, being even used successfully
in appendicitis. ONE SPOONFUL re
lieves almost ANY CASE of constipa

and pass out. Adler-i-ka cannot gripe
and the INSTANT action is surprising.

To End Catarrhal
Deafness and
Head Noises
Persons suffering from catarrhal deaf
ness and head uftises will be glad to
know that this distressing affliction enn I
be successfully treated at home by an
internal remedy that in many instances
has brought complete relict' after all
else has failed. Sufferers who could
scarcely hear a watch tick tell how they
liuvo hail their hearing restored to such
an extent that the tick of n watch was
plainly audible seven or eight inches
awav from either ear.
Therefore, if you know someone who
is troubled with head noises or catarrh,
or catarrhal deafness, cut out this
formula and hand to them, and you will
have been the means of savins* some
poor sufferer perhaps from total deaf
ness. The prescription can be prepared
at home, and is made as follows:
Secure from your druggist 1 oz. Pnr-
W'iut (double Strength), about 75c
worth. Take this home, and add to it
V» pint of hot water and 4 or., of granu
lated sugar: stir until dissolved. Take
one tablespoonfnl four times a day.
The first dose should begin to relieve
the distressing head noises, headache,
dullness, Cloudy thinking, etc., while the
hearing rapidly returns as the system is
invigorated by the tonic action of the
treatment. Loss of smell and mucus
dropping in the back of tho throat, nre
other symptoms that show the presence
of catarrhal poison, and which nre often
entirely overcome by this efficacious'
treatment. Xearly ninety per cent, of i
all enr troubles are said to be directly
caused by catarrh, therefore, there must
be many people whose hearing can be
restored by this simple home treatment.
Every person who is troubled with
head noises, catarrhal deafness or ca
tarrh in any form, should give this pre
scription a trial. There is nothing bet
ter.—Adv.

bought an egg with her penny, hatch- I
