fjROTHR CLEVJU.AND Will Oil Ml roll 4th
march forth to a condition of iBnocaora
desuetude.
LOT everv Citizen voter that can go to the
polk eatly to-morrow, and then re that Ilia
nelelibor exercises the right of fmuchun.
Thb example of one of the gHlld tUotild
cause some of the school toaehors who are
counted on the old maids' list to take heart
also.
Tub CI t) sens party lias been In control of
tho School Board for a number of years, and
under its direction the schools have steadily
advanced until they now stand second to
none in the county. This is the record upon
which the candidates of that party appeal for
support to the voters. Notwithstanding
the Citleens have been in power, they have
not exercised their prerogative In theappolnt
tuent of teachers upen tho principle of "the
C rat test good to the c realist number," but
have set aside that Jeflersoniau doctrine, "to
the victors belong the spoils." As a result of
this liberal spirit on the part of the Cltliens
members of the Hoard there are to-day
more teachers credited to the Democrats,
who have been in the minority, thnu to the
Citizens party. The efficiency of the ap
plicant, was the essential qualification, as
evidenced by tho promotion of teachers of
the opposite political faith under tho ad
ministration of the Citizens party. The
people will endorse this liberal spirit by the
election of the CjtUeus candidates.
TO-MOBROW'a BATTLE.
The closing - days of tho campaign have
been marked by much aetivity iu the ranks
of both parties, and all that new remains
is a final rally of the voters to-morrow. We
have perfect confidence in tho good judg
ment of the voters of Shenandoah, and be
lieve they will vote as their best judgment
dictates, outside of any influence foreign to
the questions at issue, and which have been
injected into the campaign by unscrupulous
and designing politicians. In selecting men
for borough ofiices one of the main essentials
to inquire into is thoir competency. Without
this requisite there can not bo good govern
ment. WehavoBhown very clearly, during the
progross of tho campaign, that the Citizens
nominees for borough offices Iiavo the le
quisite qualifications j that they Jiavo more
to commend them thau have thoir opponents,
and in their hands tho pooplo will receive a
clean and honest administration something
that the borough is sadly in noed of. We
havo suffered under Democratic rulo for
thrse yours,, and it Is generally acknowledged
that it has bsen anything but satisfactory.
Tho peoplo domand a change, and they
naturally turn to the Citizens party for re
dress. WHU C; II. Ilagenhuoh, prominout
business man and progressive citizen, for
Chief Burgess i A. D. Gable, with an ox
patience and knowledgo his opponent does
not possess, for Tux Receiver ; T. T. Williams
and W. II. Shoemaker, two of the ward
J ustices unceremoniously fired out of office a
year ago, for, Borough Justices; and Harry
Keese, In evory way qualified for Borough
Auditor, tho Citizens party presents to the
votsrs a ticket against which tho opposition
can say nothing detrimental, either as in
dividual citizens or public officials. Tlioy
have made tho fight upou their merits, and
upon that issue alone they stand.
What Is true of the borough ticket, is
equally true of tho ward nominations. In
the First ward, where tho Demoorats have a
majority, tho Citizens have nominated
William lionuie for Council and Charles E.
Smith for School Board. The popularity of
the nominees will likely ciiLdown the usual
Democratic majority in that ward.
In the Second ward tho Citizens will elect
their entire ticket by a handsome majority,
Tho contest has attracted much interest for
the reason that besides a Councilman, two
School Directors are to he elected. Tho
Citizens candidate for Council is 11. L.
Shoemaker, whoso popularity will cause
many Democrats to give him a complimentary
vote. Being a largo property owner himself,
the interests of the taxpayers will be faith
fully guarded with him as a member of
Council. Marshall llaugh and Harry W,
Keipor are candidates for School Board. Tho
former is at present a member of the Board
nnd has a olean and honorable record. Ills
running-mate, Mr. Keiper, has every qualifl
ention necessary for a faithful discharge of
the duties of this important position. The
Demoorats are active in this ward, and mouay
is being used lavishly iu the interest of one
of their candidates. Notwithstanding this
the Cithwns are confident of electing their
ticket.
In the Third ward, where the Democrats
merely go through the formality of selecting
a tioket, the dtisens nominees for Council
and School Board are C. T. gtraugbn and
Thomas Dove, Jr., respectively. The manly
and open letter of Mr.' Dove, published in
these columns a day or two ago, in which he
repudiated the report circulated by some of
his political oppoueuU, has blasted the hopes
ef the Democratic leaders, and the ticket will
receive tho usual Citizens majority.
One of the most spirited flgbta iu the bor
ough is that iu the Fourth waid, where
David Morgan is a candidate for School
Director on the Citunus ticket. He has
many warm friends in the Democratic ranks,
who appreciate the many favors at his hands
while a member of the Board. They
will return that oenipliuCut in a substantial
manner to-morrow. Mr. Morgan is liberal
in hia views, and has a record that bis
friend can point to with much satisfaction.
The Oouncilmanle nominee is Harry Beeso.
The CiUaeiMi party herein concedes the resi
dents of Turkey Bun a representative in the
Borough Council, a concession which thsy
appreciate highly. That portion of the ward
Is justly enUtted to one Couueiliuan out of
the three; btrt tlM Democrats think other
wise, asjWiwji In the turning down of Coun
cilman Kerns at the primaries.
The dtisens leaders in the Fifth ward are
oonfldent of success, hut will net relax their
efforts to gain a victory until the polls close

tlm Milium rernilwlmi.
London, Feb, 14. A diapnti h to The
Times from Canea arvyr ty it -h" resig
nation of I'rinco C;oi.ri;o rnvlirh,
governor if Ciete, had alroaUv been
acceptet!, nnd ho departed yosieid iy
afternoon on board the Austrian Lloyd
steamer for Trieste. Despite the or.l
ole.1 statements, there is reason tu be
lieve that he left Ills post without the
sultan's remission. In his letter to
the ooneuls -uirnHi.ir fh iwuvpm
lie only stated that he had tendered
his resignation.
Al though well lntentloned, Berovltob
Pasha has shown a lamentable lack nf
courage during: the recent troubles, ac
cording to the Sanaa correspondent ol
The Times, He practically abandoned
the direction of affairs at a critical
moment. It must. In-all fairness, be
said that the task Imposed upon him
was one of extraordinary difficulty.
Without gendarmerie, without law
courts, opposed by military subordi
nates, thwarted In Constantinople and
harassed by his administrative council,
he had no means to make his author
ity respected. It must also be borne in
mind that the sudden disappearance
of Turkish officials Is often due to oc
cult Influences. The position of the
next governor will not be enviable.
According to another dispatch from
Canea the Greek consul, with his staff,
boarded the Greek Ironclad Hydra, af
ter placing the refugees at the con
sulate under the protection of the Brit
ish consul, who told them to board
the Greek warships. Up to the present
time, however, the refugees remain at
the British consulate. The closing of
the Greek consular offices seems to In
dicate a definite rupture of the rela
tions between Greece and Turkey.
A WAKNINO TO OIiniSCK.
Sue Cannot Count on tho Support of the
Powers Gladstone's Hope.
London, Feb. 16. Tho Times, In an
editorial, warns Greece that that coun
try must not think that It can count
on the support of the powers to wage
war. With her limited liability, her de
pendence on the powers makes it nec
essary for her to follow their advice
and avoid provoking a conflict that she
Is Incapable of sustaining alone. The
decision of the powers to accept re
sponsibility by their occupation of
Canea, Itetlmo and Herakllon should
Induce Greece to countermand her
military expedition.
In response to a request from the
editors of The Chronicle, asking hirn
to send a message of hope to Greece,
Gladstone has wired The Chronicle
from Cannes as follows:
"I dare not stimulate Greece ntfrien
we cannot help her, but I shall pro
foundly rejoice in her sucotfss. I 'hope
the powers will recollect that they
have their own character to redeem."
Ordered tu Occupy Crete.
London, Feb. IS. A dispatch to The
Dally Mall from Rome says that the

FACTS WITH POINTS.
Bvoryone of Thobe Statements Absolutely
True.
Mr. A. W. Sharper, fll Trospeet St., In
dianapolis, Ind says: "Gratitude prompts
me to write that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
completely cured me of Nervous Dyspepsia
from which I had suffered for the' last four
years. I bad tried many lemedies without
results, but am now cured ud have gained
iu flesh, sleep well and have none but words
of praise for Stuart's Tablets."
Mrs. Sarah A. Skeeb, Lyanville, Iowa:
"It has been six months since I took Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets and am fully cured. Have
not had a particle of distress or difficulty
since. This is iu the face of the fact that I
uau sunorea lromstom&cu trouble ror twenty
five years and was pronounced incurable by
the doctors."
James Xewmestes, Kau Claire, Wis,, says:
"Two 60 cents packages ol Stuart's Dyspep
sia Tablets did me more good than any
remedy I had ever before tried. They hit
the spot with me and I once more have an
appetite and can eat what I please without
fear of distress and bloating afterward."
Dr. Hurlaudsom relates the case of Miss
Helen Uboles of Nashville, who was cured
of dys)iensia aud gained 18 pduuds In weight
after suffering from atomarh trouble for eight
years. The doctor uses them in all stomach
truubKs because they are not a secret patent
medicine, but coutalu pure pepsin, Diastase,
fruit acids, aud valuable digestives, which di
gest the food whether, the stomach works or
not, gives it the needed rest aud a euro is the
natural result.
;; .Teunlsonsays nine-tenths of disease is
caused by iudigeatlon and Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablet is the safest and best cure, liecause
they aro not a secret patent medicias, but
contain the valuable digestive principles
nsedsd by evory weak s to mack and a whole
box would not hurt a child, being absolutely
harmless.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab

YOUNG SCOVCL'S ARREST,
Ut I.uelin O vi nn Alleirsd Interview
wlt'i rtie OoM'et ptmlotit.
Key Wist, Flru, Fv'i. 15. Itecent ad
vices ioctivcd here give the following
account of the arrest by the Spanish
of Sylvester Scovel, tho war corrres
pondent of the New Tork World:
EScovel arrived on Frldny at the Zasn
station of the railroad from Tunas to
tluit city. He landed at the port of
CaUda and went from theto to Trin
idad ami thence to Mar.lirua for the
pin poi e cf gathering news. When he
reached Zasa he Intended to take a
train for Tunas, and b. ard some ves
sel bound for Now York. But as an
ordor had been Issued to detain all
foreigners the chtet of the escort of
the train, a lieutenant of the civil
guards named Benor Carbo, at once
arrested him and Francisco Tome, who
had come from Pagabo, where he had
bsen to oversee an estate partly owned
by him.
enor Carbo questioned Scovel con
cerning the section of the country
from which he came. Pcovol replied
that he came from Central Trinidad,
where he had gone to buy old o 'per.
Said Lieutenant Carbo in
"Seems to me that your face is
that of a buyer of old coppper."
"Why?" inquired Soovel.
"Because," replied Carbo, "Ameri
cans that travel like you, with a clean
shirt and old straw hat and without n
valise, come from the Insurgent
camps."
Both were then placed in the jail,
where Scovel still remains. Senor
Tome was released since nothing was
found against him. Mr. Soovel was
confined alone In his cell, and was not
alllowed to communicate with any per
son during the entire day. On the night
of the 7th his testimony was taken.
He was then allowed the privilege of
communicating with Consular Agent
Senor Rafael Madrigal de Lacrui.
Says the correspondent of La Lucha:
"I 'Wont early to the Jail. Mr. Scovel
Is a young man, well educated, and
very attractive. H praised the treat
ment he had received In Jail, the Jail
being, he said, a palace when compar
ed with Manlgua field. Of the keeper
of the jail, Sebor Serrano, he says
that It would bf hard to find his equal.
He requested me to make public the
many attentions he had reoelVod from
the military commander of Tunas, Cap
tain Fernando Hueda. Regarding the
Spanish soldiers, he says that he can
only eulogize them, and that they de
serve all the good things said of them,
because of their bravery and discip
line." HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or commonwater glass with
mine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a
sediment or settling Indicates a diseased con
dition of the kidneys. When urine stains
linen it is positive evidence of kidney
trouble Ton frequent deslro to urinate, or
pain In tho back, is also convincing proof
that tho kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in tho knowledge so often
expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-lioot,
the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish
in relieving pain in tho bask, kidueys, liver,
bladder and ovcry part of tho urinary
sagos. It corrects Inability to hold urino and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects fol
lowing use of liquor, wino or beer, and over
comos that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many tlmos during tho
night to uriuato. Tho mild and tho ex
traordinary effect of Swamp-Boot is soon
realized. It stands tho highest for its wonder
ful cures of tho most distressing cases. If
you need a modlcino you should have tho

California has been most fittingly termed
the "Italy of America." All the dolicious

upon tho other, and a veritable paradise of
flowers, fruits and plants between, man can
find and needs no lovelier land. To visit
such a country is a privilege, a blessing.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
recognizing the need of a more comfortable
and pleasant way of crossing tho continent,
inaugurated a series of annual tours to Cali
fornia, running a through train ef Pullman
palace oars from Now York to the Pacific

these tours demonstrates tho wisdom of the
movement.

24, and March 37.
The first tour will run direct to San Diego

It fills the blood with the vital-elements that
build new and healthy tissues, firm mus

through the blood it tears down inert, half
dead tissues and causes them to be carried
off and excreted. It acts upon ever- organ
of the body driving out impurities and disease-germs.
It is the great blood-maker
and flesh-builder. It cures every kind of
humor from the common simple blotch or
eruption to scrofula. It cures ecxema, salt

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Han Offers to Send His Dis
covery Free.
Claims to Be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.
There is always more or leas suspicion
attacked to anything that is ottered free but
sometimes a man so overflows with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery b
known to the world, in order that his f ellow
men may profit by what lie has discovered.
It is uuon this nrlncinal that a resident of
Kalauiuoo, Mich., desires to send free to
mankind a itreaertntioH which will cure them
of any form of nervous debility ; relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertainty which
sucu u;?n are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural else and vigor. As it
ousts nothing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack men
who never stopped to realise what might be
the final result, ought, to be deeply interested
iu a remedy which will restore them to
health, strength aud vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was the
insult of many years research as to what
combination would be peculiarly effective in
restoring to men the strength they need, it
would seem that all men suffering with any
form of nervous weakness ought to write for
such a remedy at once. A request to II. C.
Olds, Box 1712, Kalamazoo, Mich., stating
that you aro not sending for the prescription
out of idle curiosity, but that you wish to
make uso of the medicine by giving ita trial,
will be answered promptly aud without
evidence as to where information came from.
The prescription is sent free and although
some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery, there is no doubt
about the offer being genuine. Cut this out
and send to Mr. Olds so that he may know
bow you came to write him. 12-28-78t

It Is thought that there should be an

ity they have for special recognition,
and this be done while the principals,

tain of the company from Mifflin coun

Importance. There has some friction
anil jealousy developed aa a result.
In the senate there are but ten mem
bers, while there are 25 in the house.
The fact of the little importanoe of this
committee led to the appointment of
a iiutmier of anti-Quay members. A
resolution was offered, It Is thought
for the purpose of taking the powt
out of the hands of the presi ill. uoin
mlttee on buildings and aroun 's and
substituting another to be selected and
appointed by the chairman of the
house committee on public buildings,
together with the governor and lieu
tenant governor, state treasurer, au
ditor general and speaker of the house,
to constitute a special committee,
whose duty it shall be to consider and
adopt plans and specifications for a
new state capltol building, etc., and
further provides that all repair work
shall be by American cltlzenB, and as
far as practicable all material Hhall be
of Pennsylvania product. This pro
voked a session of the joint commit
tees of a very exciting nature, and the
result was that the resolution was
tabled and an arrangement made for
the chairman of the committee to meet
the governor and discuss the subject
with him. It Is altogether probable
there will be some spirited contests in
these committees before the subject Is
disposed of.
ISoomlug the Candidates.
Within the past-few days the friends
of several prospective candidates have
started a boom for their favorites for
Important places on the hill. There are
many aspirants for Governor Hastings'
position two years hence, and among
those recently reported who would be
willing to serve the state In this ca
pacity are Congressman-elect Connell
of Scranton nnd Congressman Lelsen
rlng, and there ls a movement on foot
among tho old soldiers to havo Gen
eral John P. Taylor put In tho race.
General Wiley, Speaker Boyer, Auditor
General Mylln, and many others, arc
spoken of In connection with the gov
ernorship, and from present Indications
there will be many candidates to se
lect from In the next contest for gov
ernor. It ls given out that John Wana-
maker will be -the candidate of his fac
tion for governor. It ls understood
that General J. P. S. Gobln will be a
strong candidate for auditor general,
There doeB not seem to be many appli
cants for the position of state treas
urer. Few seem to care for the exper
ience and responsibility connected with
that office. There are only two persons
whose friends are aotlvo in endeavor
ing to secure the nomination, and these
are R. H. Shlndel, cashier of the City
bank of York, Pa., and Mr. Beacon of
Greensburg, and in the canvass of
these gentlemen there ls not likely to
be much friction. There are frequent
rumors of the likelihood of Governor
Hastings securing a place In McKln
ley's cabinet, although he denies that
he ls a candidate for the position. Sev
eral persons have visited Canton re
cently, it Is thought In his Interest.
In tho event of his being tendered a
cabinet portfolio, and his acceptance,
It Is thought a great change will be
made In political circles.
It Is not likely there will be an ef
fort made to remove the debris of the
old capltol building and steps taken
towards the erection of the new for
same time. The adjournment of the
senate until the evening ot Feb. 22 will
postpone any action In that direction.
Disposition to Move Cautiously,
There is a disposition among the
members to move cautiously in the
beginning of an effort to construct a
new capltol building. It seems to be
the desire to consult the people gen
erally, and If possible ascertain their
desires as to the amount that should
be expended, and not build a structure
that would be unpopular among the
majority. There will be little time for
holidays for the remainder ot the ses
sions, and to get through with the
work outlined at anything like the
usual time for adjournment will re
quire Bteady and active work from thlB
on.
It should be born in mind that
among the bills usually left to the last
Is the general appropriation bill. It
should get the precedence, even If oth
er measures should be sacrificed when
there to time to spare. Many lrapor
tan acts have already been proposed,
and these should be acted on promptly
and brought before the people for In
vestigation. But at this stage of the
proceedings not a single one has been
reported and placed on the calendar,
while many that have been talked
Ibout have not been Introduced even. It
therefore becomes our lawmaker to be
exceedingly Industrious during the re
malnder of the session.
The public building committee of the
house and senate have been Investi
gating the cause of the capltol fire
Of the witnesses examined .the major
ity conclude that the Are originated
from the open hearth In the lieutenant
governor's room, and it communicated
under the floor. During the investi
gation it developed that the state had
adopted but few Are precautions. No
efforts had ever been made to organize u
fire brigade, and little, If any, extin
guishment material had been supplied.
By those who were familiar with Its
condition It has been regarded for years
as a tinder box, and to them It ls a
wonder that it had not burned several
years ago.
