REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.
To the ltepiibllcnn electors of Pennsylvania:
The llepublicann of Pennsylvania, by their duly
chosen representatives, will meet in Mate con
vention Thursday, April 21, I WW, at 10 o'clock
A. m., In tho operti house, city of Hurrlhiirg, for
tho purpose of nominating two candidates for
reprosetitiitivo-ut-lurge in Congress and tlilrty
6wo candidates for Presidential electors, the
selection of eight dclegatcs-nt-Iargo to the Ito
publlean National convention, and for the
Tansactlon of such otiier business as may bo
presented.
By order of tho Stato Committee.
M. 8. Quay,
Attest: jEitrj It. Kkx, Chairman.
"V. It. Andrews, .Secretaries.
SIt's u mighty poor prolueor who euuiiot
improve on tho X raj-s those days.
Fitz and Corbett are still talking over tho
long distance telephone, unil saying, "Yott'or
another."
Ito.MB, that sut on her beveu hills and from
her thnino of beauty Tilled tho world, Is put
to it those days to rule herself.
Wr. have tho Whitney, Carlisle, liussel
and Olnoy booms, hut what tho country needs
is a business boom, and that will come with
the triumph of Republicanism.
If this "favoiite bon" business keeps up the
Republican score cards at St. Louis next
Juno will hardly ho big enough to contain
the names of all the candidates. Things are
riiHercnt with our Democratic friends, ap
parently. UuvcHN'uii Hastings yosterday appointed
i'harles 1!. McMicliael to buccccd the lato
Judge Henry Reed, upon the recoinuiendatiou
of Senator tjuay's 1'hiladelphia lieutenants.
This is another blow tho Governor has dealt
lho Combine.
Tin: fccw oik .Mercury says: It is rc-
jiorted that Quay is a sure enough candidate
for the Republican l'lesideutial Humiliation,
Imt Matthew himself is not siying a word,
lmt looking calm and serene, with tho ion
lldence of a Christian who sits in a game of
poker behind four aces."
An exchange puts it this way: "The
dealers who are now advertising report in
creased business and cheerful prospects.
Spring buying begins hefuro homo merchants
are awaio of it, and it is the far-sighted ones
ulio is new planting his advertisements."
It is cjuito evident, from his published
interview, that ex-Senator John J. Ingalls,
of Kansas, is partial to McKlnley for Presi
dent, lie speaks of big Tom Ueed as a "local
man." Tho locnlity In which ho dwells,
however, takes in tho entire area of the
I'nited .States, including Kansas.
And so County Solicitor Ulrich has advised
the Commissioners not to lecogulzo any
Justices in Mahanoy City or Shenandoah
except thoso commissioned as Justices for tho
lioiough. If tho other Justices hi these two
towns aro acting illegally, how about tho
(Justices of I'ottsville, .St. Clair, Schuylkill
Jlavcn, Ashland and hisowii town of Tama
iua ? Why not wipe them all out at ono fell
swoop ?
It is evident that tho old gas companies in
this statu have given up the attempt to light
lho new applicants for charters on tho
grounds that they have exclusive rights.
Thcto were some fifteen contests of this
character before Secretary of tho Common-
wealth Hecder, all ol which wcro to have
Leeu heard this month, but tho hearings liavo
lecn postponed indellnitely. The depart
incut will yrant tho charters except where
there is a similarity of names, and in which
ease tho applicants can change the names and
re-apply.
PnoF, J. W. Cooii:k, principal of tho High
bi-liool, has formally announced his candidacy
for tho Couuty Supcriiitendency, and his
friends will uso every legitimate and honnr
ablo means to securo his election to that
important position. Tho action of tho School
Hoard in unanimously adopting resolutions
endorsing his candidacy is heartily com
mended by all friends of tho public schools
who know Mr. Cooper. His executive and
intellectual abilities are unquestionable, und
he has had the necessary experience to fit
him for tho duties of the position to which
he aspires.
C'Jtisi'i, the Italian statesman who lias
carried on the work of welding together tho
Italian states into ono solid kingdom, btipplo
Mien ting the woik of Masulul, favour and
Clarlliuldl, has been compelled to ruslgu
oitice because of reverses to tho( army in
Uysslnia. Tho Italian dreaniof colonial
aggrandizement has received ii serious bet
back by the defeat of flen. Damitiori which,
it appears from later dlsintcloe, lias been a
most disastrous one. His sixinor will havo
a ditiluult task on hand to govern Italy as
tlie country is impoverished to tho verge of

GRATIFYING
DON'T POISON YOURSELF
Food is Poison if Allowed to
Ferment in Your Stomach.
1'iltrid food contains poisons so dangorous
that they cause eilects similar to all&loids
which druggists aro not allowed to sell to the
public. '
No wonder so many of ns bccoino danger
, usly sick from indigostlon !
For what is Indigestion?
It is putrid (undigested) food In tho
stoniich.
The poisons of undigested food aro ab
sorbed into the blood, and a licet tho liver,
the norves, tho kidneys, the heart and all
tho organs of tho body,
They cause weakness, lethargy, headache
dizziness, mental depression, bad taste,
stomach-ache, fover, flatulence, palpitation,
nausea, constipation, loss of appetite,
jaundice, prostration, anaemia, rheumatism,
etc.
They can bo got rid of only by helping tho
stomach to digest its food, and this is dune
by the Shaker Digestive Cordial.
You will novor be strong or healthy so
long as you sufi'er from indigestion, so long
as you allow your stomach to taint your
system with tho poisons of putrid food.
And, as for a cure, nothing will curo you
so quickly as Shaker Digestive Cordial,
nothing so certainly relievo your pain and
discomfort, or givo you new strength, cnorgy,
and endurance.

tractor nnd resident of Syracuse, and a
representative business man of that city.
Our representative found him oversee
ing the sower work at tho Arsenal, ami in
the following interview lie describes how
lie has finally completed tlio biggest con
met ho has ever undertaken.
"3Ir. Dakin, doesn't your business ex
poso you to many unhealthy conditions?"
"es, I nm continually catching cold."
" Docs it affect your general health?"
"It lias brought ou kidney disorders."
" Nave 3-ou been troubled from that
source any length of time?"
"I think it started during the war, in
which I took an active part, and every
cold I catclt lias aggravated it."
" What were tlio symptoms?"
"Lame back and trouble with tho kid
ney organism. I havo doctored for years
and used all kinds of remedies I heard of,
without relief. My case is as follows ":
"Sonic littlo timo ago I was in a very
bad condition, hardly alilo to hobble
around; I had been in Madison County
looking after a contract tliero for the Stato;
I got very wet, and, as usual, was laid up.
I was simply twisted way around aim
doubled up on ono side; when I ntteinpted
to stand up it seemed as though f would
tear out one of my kidneys; whilo in this
condition I saw Doan's Kidney Pills ad
vertised. .Being almost desperate, I was.
willing to try nnvthine for relief. I be
gan using them, aud tho result was truly
wonueriui. i icel as young as a uoy, anu
it is the first timo in many years that I
have been perfectly freo from pain in the
small of my back. All urinary troubles
gone. I am perfectly well, nnd no traces
ot my lortner trotimo remain, l giaiuy
