Little Is heard these ilnys of Senator
Ciiineron's Presidential aspirations. Ho is
still dreaming of n contingency that will
niako liiui tlio Itcpuhlicun cnndiilatc on a 111
to 1 platform.
ti:pi!iJ5i:NTATlvi: A. S. Hiautv, of Ken
tucky, declares upon his honor us a states
man, a scholar and a gentleman "that I can
say very positively that Mr. Cleveland is not
in the Presidential race at all." There aro
curtain circumstances which render thu i
tcrtion irrefutable. No, Mr. Cleveland' will
not bo " in it. "
Si:c'uirrAi!Y ItimiiKit has decided that com
missions cannot bo issued to D. !. Camden,
Samuel 13. Kaosly and John II. Davis, of
Danger, who wero elected Justices of tho
Peace at the February election. Tho rea
hon assigned is that tho borough is only en
titled to two Justices, to lie elected by tho
concurrent votes of each ward. W. It. (Jrubb
holds rVrcr ami thu Governor will appoint
tlie second Justice.
i '
Till; wlnduws of business places aro beauti
fully decorated with Easter eggs, cards and
flowers and present a neat appearance. Tho
Lenten secson will have ended with Sunday
next. Most of the churches have made
extensive preparations for the joyous
services. Thoao who havo been observing
thu requirements of the season will no doubt
fcul better, lellgiously and physically.
With nations like Spain and Turkey fair
ly sizzling with helpless r.igo at tho United
State, wo may rightfully claim to havo con
clusive evidence that tho great republic is
Milidly arrayed in favor of humanity, justice
and civilization. If the Spaniard and the
Turk professed to love this country it would
bo in order fur Uncle Saui to look around
and see wherein his moral principles wero
unsound.
A NKvr religious organization has madu its
appearance in tho shapo of tho American
Dcagito of tho Grand Army of thu Cross.
As Its iiauiu implies, tho league is of a mili
tary character, and its object tho evangeliza
tion uf America. Unlike thu Salvation
Army, this organization discards thu military
uniform, but in tho prosecution of its mission
it will appeal to tlio masses by popular
methods of singing and exhortation.
Frank Wjm.ino I.kacii announces that
he is III tlio stato chairmanship contest to
.stay until thu question Is decided. Mr.
Loach's services to tho licpublican party
have been of such a conspicuous nature and
characterized by such brilliant successes that
tliero is no doubt as to tho result should ho
bo chosen to conduct the battle ill 18!I0. It
would alo bo a piopcr recognition of tho
hard work douo by Jiiiu for tho party, not
only in the state but also in national politics,
at critical times. His syfctcmatic.pains-takiug
business methods of conducting campaigns
have tended greatly to maku Pennsylvania
tho banner licpublican state it Is.
A DAME OF CHANCE.
As an object lesson in politics, says tho New
York Advertiser, the widely dlireront plans
of campaign pursued by tho half dozen load
ing aspirants for tho St, Louis nomination
otfer a highly interesting study. Major
McKinlcy represents the latter-day American
"hustle" in its highest form of development-,
Governor Morton accepts with dignity the
indorsement of ills own statu and permits his
friends ami advisers to go into others where
there are no home oundMatus with a view to
the making uf combinations when the proper
time uuuies; Speaker Heed, content to let
Now Kugland do what It may fur him, has
been busy for tho past four months handling
an iimvioldly Republican majority in tlio
lower house uf Congress, preventing it from
making mistakes and really strengthening
tlio party and tho opposing canilldatos as
much as, if not more than, himself ; Senator
Quay ha done llttlo clsu than toplaco him
self lu a posiil-ni where he can cut a llttlo
more ice than usual in tho National Convcn
tion, senator t'nlinm put outn lightning rod
cari.vamlis 1 nlmg it steadily in position.
Hi.! the lluu ,' ilhaui Eoyd Allison Is
saying nothing, doing nothing not ovoti
sawing wood lint lying M'ry, ory low
nioHiitimo.
The Ohio limn mid tho Iowa innn repre
sent the two extremes in nute-ctmvontion
luetics. They are "playing both endsagntnst
the middle." The midillo, however, isR big
one a Irenionilous bulk mid, if nobody
enn break out of It with liW votes heforo tliu
tenth ballot, our Uncle Allison ill then be
in fine form for a winner If, in the meantime,
the Hon. James S. Clarkson lias not boon
idle.
With tho oxreption of tho Ruining of in
dividual strength liero and there by the
candidates, it may fairly be presumed that
tho situation will not cliango very materially
from now till tho day of the convention at
any rale, McKinlcy will not drop out of the
race, ami Allison is not likely to put himself
any further into it. Meanwhile, wo hear
nothing of dark horscB. This may lie
omliiuus. Can a surprise like Unit of '711 be
in Mine for tho republican party and tlio

A POISONED LIVER.
Don't Keep. Poison in Your
Body Longer Than You
Have To.
If your stomach poisong your liver tho
consequences may bo serious.
What poisons arise In your stomach come
from undigested food which has decomposed
there. They are absorbed by your blood and
go to your liver, whole they pamlyzo its
functions and make you bilious.
Finally they go into tho blood again and
n row tried all over tho body, disordering
your dlUbront organs, and perhaps making
you dangurously sick.
This is the origin of many diseases which
aro not always known fur what thoy are.
The poisons of undigested food can only
bo got rid of by the tiso of a purifying,
strengthening, digestive tonic, like the
Shaker Digestive Cordial.
A few doses of this wonderful cordial will
soon clear away all undigested, fermenting,
poisonous substances, restore your appetite,
,(itI y(, lo iugt.st 'vollr food, purify your
liver and mood ol all dangerous poisons, and
restore you to perfect health.
It Will cure biliousness, indigestion, nausea,
headache, dizziness, mental depression,
weakness, fever, flatulonco, constipation,
loss of appetite, bad tasto in mouth, stomach
ache, anaemia, rheumatism, etc., where
other medicines will barely givo relief.
At druggists. Ten cents for a trial bottle.
