Democrats Will Triumph in Luzerne To morrow If the Vote It* Foiled. The campaign is closed. The voters of Luzerne, are about to record their opinion's at tlie polls. From tlie outset of the canvass the Republicans have been alarmed. And with good reason. They knew, in tlie first place, that their party would suffer this year because of the broken pledges of its leaders. It will be readily recalled what promises they made last year in behalf of Mc- Kinley. They told the workingmeri especially, that Ills election would be rapidly followed by good times, steady work and higher wages. They faith fully promised all these things in the event of McKlnley's election. Well, McKinley was elected and what followed? He, at the command of Mark Uatma and other millioniare monopolists, called congress together in special session to pass a tariff bill which greatly j enriched the fat trusts and speculative corporations and doubled the cost of living to the poor man. Did the good times come? Have tho miners hotter wages? Not much. All that has been done by the McKinley administration, so far, has been done to make the rich, richer, and the poor, poorer. Those are facts which every man in this section of Pennsylvania fully understands. Again. The renominatlon of Fell and Llewellyn was a bad thing for tlie Re publicans in Luzerne. There were men as fully as deserving who asked for the nominations, but who were turned down in favor of the second termors. The re sult was that hundreds of honest Repub licans turned away in disgust and have shown no concern in what might result to their party in this battle. The voters of Freoland know the qualifications and manly virtues of the Democratic candidates. They have been working for tlie principles they represent from tlie day they were nomi nated. Enthusiastic meetings have been held and evidouce has-not been lacking that the Democratic spirit is thoroughly aroused throughout the county. Demo cratic victory is in the air if the vote is gotten out. Apathy has seized upon the Republi cans. They have not held a single j meeting during the whole campaign. I They dared not, because they felt as- j surod that tlie apathy referred to would I be revealed in a universal desertion at such meetings. The Republican leaders ■ are not only downcast but terribly alarm- j ed. They know their cause this time is I not a good one. They realize the | honesty and justice that have character- ! ized the labors of the Democrats this j year and tlioy feel that the people are j against the Republican machine. It is well for Democrats to be on their j guard and put no faith in election day rumors. No doubt such will be circu lated, as the enemy is desperate and will stop at nothing to turn the tide of Democratic enthusiasm aside. Rut the Democrats are sure winners if they stand together and see that the full party strength is polled. Dcatli of Henry (jieorge. Henry George, author of "Progress and Poverty" and candidate of the Jef ferson Democracy for mayor of New York city, died at 4.50 o'clock on Friday morning, of cerebral apoplexy. The I end was peaceful, and ho died without pain. Tiiis man of mighty brain and undaunted courage was physically frail, and tlie strain of an exciting campaign, j requiring speech-making at points many 1 miles apart, night after night, was more j than ho could stand. He kept up to the , end. and only a few hours before the dread messenger cried halt, Henry | George had addressed several enthusias-1 tic audiences at different points in Greater New York. Mr. George died fighting for the nob lest cause for which man can die—tho cause of humanity. His doctrines and liis teachings, as he gave them to the ■ world in Ids famous book, will live for- i ever. Tho great social struggle for the I emancipation of man will continue, and j some timo in the future, when "equal j rights for all and special privileges for ; none" shall become tho basic principle of every civilized government, his true worth will lie recognized and history will accord liini his proper place among the real benefactors of mankind. Mr. George was known personally to many Freoland people, and tho single tax theory, which he so ably developed and successfully defended, lias hosts of advocates in this section. In 1880 lie delivered a public address under the auspices of tlie Knights of Labor at Donop's hall. A fund lias been started in New York city to erect a memorial to Henry George.

Celebrated Cleveland's First Election wltli a New Silk Tile— Usui a Memo randum of Marriuge Inside aud Tills Established a Widow's Claim. A silk hat, crushed and battered by rejoicing Democrats on the night of November 7. 1884. when (Jrover Cleve land was first elected president of the United States, has just proved the means of giving to a despairing widow a snug fortune and proving that she was legally married. The hut is the property of famous Alderman Donohue, of NViikes barre, and its story is an interesting one. Donohue was one of the most enthusi astic of Cleveland supporters during his first presidential campaign. On election day in 1884 Donohue was busy around the polls, and so well did he do his work that he won a fine silk hat on the big Cleveland vote polled in his ward, and in all'the glory of this hat he waited around town for the returns from all over the country. Cleveland MAJORITIES CAME PILING IN, the squire celebrating the receipt of each one in the approved manner. In the midst or the glad news Dono hue was hastily summoned to the Bris tol House to marry George Bounds and Miss Mary Rogers, who had just reached town. Eager to get hack to the bulletin boards, the squirt! galloped through the cermony, kissed the bride, and, having no paper, hastily made a note of the marriage in the white silk lining of his now hat, promising to send a marriage license to the happy couple the next day. Among the incidents of that night of jollity of which the squire iias no clear recollection must have boon a heated ar gument. At any rate, when he arrived homo in the morning the IIAT WAS NO LONGER SIIINY and bright. It looked very much as if it bad been through a foot hall game, and Mrs. Donohue, after removing it Willi soiiio effort from liege lord's head, stowed it away in the depths of a dark and musty closet. A year ago Donohue received a letter from a Mrs. George Bounds, of Montana, stating that her husband had been killed on the railroad where he was employed as a brake men: that lie was a member of the Brotherhood of Railroad Train men, and that before she could get the amount of the Insurance carried by her husband in the lodge she must produce her marriage certificate. She asked Donohue to forward the long-delayed paper. The alderman examined ids buoks and found no record of any such marriage, and replied to that effect. Then Mrs. Rounds came on to Wllkcsbarre and re called the circumstances of the case, but Donohue COL LI) REMEMBER .NOTHING of the night except that Cleveland was elected. The widow returned to Mon tana in despair. Now comes the hat once more. About six weeks ago Mrs. Donohue, 111 clean ing house, ransacked 1111 old closet and discovered an old and battered silk hat. the same one put away there some thirteen years before. She dusted it and accidentally saw the writing 011 the lin ing. legible and distinct. Then the alderman remembered, and the next day the hat and the marriage certificate started westward. Donohue received a letter a few days since from the grateful Mrs. Bounds, saying the court had accepted tho evi dence thus stranglv tendered, and had docided 111 her favor. SIOO Itewnrd, SIOO. TITcT readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in ail its stages and that is catarrh. Hall's catarrh cure is the onlv positive euro now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitu tional disease requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving tho paiient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faitli in its curative powers, that they offer one hundred dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Add ress, F. J.
