OunyiKin Versus AntMJuaylsm Is the Great IMHUH In This District—Standard A uthnrities Tell Independent Republi can* Wliat to Do Tomorrow. President McKlnley's postmaster general is Hon. Charles Emory Smith, who, as editor of the Philadelphia, Press. tells the honest Republicans of Pennsyl vania what to do in the great contest, of tomorrow. The Press on Monday last said editorially: - "Some of the candidates nominated ; by Republican conventions are more strongly devoted to Mr. Quay's personal and political interests than the interests of their constituents. These should be left at hone. A fair test of candidates is their position on the Pni ted States sena torship. Those who will not give satis factory assurances that if elected to the legislature they will vote against the re election of Matthew S. Quay to the senate shouhl not receive the r tes of anti machine Republic me. The machine is in trenched in the legislature, the state treasury and the United States senate. Fro in these citadels of power and patron age It controls the state. To dispossess it and overthrow its power these strong holds must be taken. The legislature is the immediate point of attack. Elect an anti-Quay legislature. Remove the head and front of the machine from the federal senate and the patronage and prestige which lie has brought to it and which confirms it in power will he taken away. Novo is the accepted time to wrest the control of the legishtare fiom the Quag machine." 1 This is strong language from the greatest Republican dady in Pennsyl vania, edited, as it is, by a member of tho cabinet. This appeal for honest government and the overthrow of cor rupt bossism, coming almost directly from President McKinle.v, ought not to be lost upon tho intelli it voters of the Fourth legislative district. Hera we have three candidates for the legislature. Two are anti-Quay ami one is for Quay. Messrs. Sheridan and Evans are opposed to Quayism and stand upon anti-Quay platforms. Mr. Snyder stands upon a platform whiclf endorses Quay. There is no doubt nor question as to the posi tion of each of the three. The choice of honest men is therefore con lined to the Democratic and Prohibi tion nominees, lioth aro laboring men, honest, capable and worthy of support. To the independent citizen who wlshos to make his vote count most effectually against Quayism, the question naturally arises, "Who shall I support, Sheridan or Evans?*' It is conceded by the most ardent admirers of the latter that his election cannot even be expected. Hi? is fighting a valiant battle, but his can vass has not shown any likelihood to be triumphant. A vote for Evans, there fore, would ho a protest against Quay ism, hut would count for naught in the result. It would bo energy woefully misapplied. Upon Mr. Sherdian then must centre the support of all who desire Pennsyl vania redeemed from the corrupt powers that control it. For exactly half a century he has resided in this district, coming here from his birth place, Wilkesbarrc, at the ago of six years. His whole life has been spent in the Lehigh region. Since attaining manhood he has striven to elevate his fellow-workers and to obtain for them their rights and privileges, at all times using every honorable means to prevent discord between em pi oyer and employe. At the call of his neighbors, the people of tho Fourth district, he entered the political field, hoping that in the house of representatives at Harrisburg he could be of still better service to them and with voice and vote help to advance the cause of honest government and equal laws. It rests entirely with the independent voters of the district to say who will be elected to represent, us in t he legislature. Mr. Sheridanstands fearlessly and un equivocally opposed to Quayism and all it represents. A vote for him means a vote for a better, purer and cleaner government in Pennsylvania. He Is pledged to do this by his party platform, by his personal utterances and by his past record In this region. Ills honesty has not been quo?tio led in this cam paign, nor heretofore. Mr. Sheridan is neck and neck with Mr. Snyder in the race. The result de pends upon the ballots of those Republi cans who are sincerely in favor of reform. Will they follow the advice of President Me Ki nicy's postmaster general and the Philadelphia Press and vote to elect an anti-Quay legislature or will they stifle their conscience, their honor and their patriotism by voting like slaves for a continuance of Quayism and disgrace? ' He men and vote for Sheridan. OiLSTOniA. Bears the si ll,B K' 1 " 1 * Oll H B * B * lwß ¥ s BOUght GRAND OPERA HOUSE Geo. McLaughlin, Manager. MONDAY, NOV. 7. LEON W.

The meeting held at the Grand opera house Saturday evening in the interest of the Democratic ticket was a success. John J. McMcnauiin. a member of the county committee, called the meeting to order, and introduced Dr. E. W. Ruttor, secretary of the Fourth legislative dis trict committee, as chairman. John K. McHugh was appointed secrotary and twenty of the prominent party men of the vicinity occupied seats on the stage as vice presidents. Dr. Rutter opened the meeting with a few timely remarks and named John F. O'Neill, Esq.. as the first speaker. He delivered an able ad dress on the state issues and was follow ed by Rush Treacott, Esq., assistant district attorney, who came instead of of District Attorney Martin, who was detained by the illness of his wife. Mr. Trescott's address was on the same lines as that of Mr. C'Neill, and was well received. Joseph J. McGinty, candidate for sheriff, was the next called. He took up the claim of each of his colleagues on i hi? county ticket, and In a con vincing manner presented them to the audience. Mr. Davenport for congress. Mr. Gabriel for recorder, Mr. Singer for coroner, Mr. Celiax for surveyor and Mr. Sberdlan for the legislature were in turn eulogized by the speaker. For himself ho mado an appeal for the votes of all who think him qualified and com petent to perform the duties of sheriff, and said that he regretted that in the last hours of the campaign his opponent had found it necessary to lie to secure votes. Ho Showed a circular printed in the Slavonian language, in which it was alleged that during Mr. McGinty's terms as recorder he drew $59,400 from the county treasury as salary and fees. This statement ho denied in emphatic language, and challenged his opponent to produce to the voters proof of the circular's assertion. The speaker gave his pledge that if elected lie would perform his duties with the same honesty, fidelity and justice as he filled othor positions in the past. He assured the voters that ho would wear no man's collar. Matthew Long, of Hazletnn, being recognized among the audience, was re quested to say something. He promptly responded, and in a few moments turn ed the assemblage from a decorous gath ering into a mass of red-hot Democracy. It was the speech of the evening, and, though unprepared, the speaker grap pled witli the local points of the cam paign in a most acceptable manner. His roferenco to D. J. McCarthy, who is stumping for Quayism, as "the man who sold his political soul to the devil," was followed ,by the greatest, burst of ap plause the opera houso has ever heard. Regarding tiie legislative candidates, Mr. Long briefly summarized the points of the battle and told of what interest the result will be to the working peoplo. Mr. Snyder, he said, was nominated by the Lattimer bird whose portrait was omitted from Pennsyl vania's famous bird book, Mr. Drake, who lias already cost tlio voters of the state SIIB,OO0 —the expense incurred in unnecessarily calling out the troops in September, 1897. Air. Long also informed the voters that a claim for $12,000 for allowing troops the use of Hazle park is now on file at Harrisburg, and a hill to obtain this money will bo introduced by Mr. Snyder, if olected. Another bill has been prepared giving authority to coal companion to call out a company or regiment of the National Guard when ever in the opinion of tho corporations the troops could be used. Mr. Sheridan iias all his life heon a working man, has no connection with corporation interests and can be depended upon to oppose all legislation inimicable to labor. Dr. Julius Czupka closed the meeting with a vigorous address in the Polish language. Resides Mr. McGinty, Candidates Ga briell and Sheridan were present. St. Patrick's band rendered several selec tions before the meeting opened. A Tlieatical Trent. A genuine treat Is in store for theatre goers.

Hall's catarrh cure is the only positive cure 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 the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work.

Senator Quay's candidate for gov ernor put forward a singular claim on his own behalf at Mercer when he said: "I made a canvass of the state for the nomination, the first time such a thing was ever done, and got what I wanted, the nomination." The Philadelphia Ledger, at first in clined to support Colonel Stone, but now, in the force of new conditions, veering from Swallow to Jenks, lets in the light on this claim of Colonel Stone that he won the nomination by his own canvass of the state. The Ledger says, on the contrary: "He got it from Senator Quay, who at a meeting of himself and a half dozen of his retainers at an obscure seaside resort in New Jersey decided that it should be given to Mr. Stone, and to no one else. He was not nomi nated by the Republican party, nor by the Republican electors of the com monwealth: he was nominated by, and is today, as he has always been, the personally selected candidate of Sen ator Quay. His candidacy, as every one, excepting only himself, apparently knows, represents the Quay machine, Quayism. and not the popular will and choice. Mr. Stone's misinformation on the subject of being himself the first and only gubernatorial aspirant who ever canvassed the state for a nomi nation Is not less great than his de clared belief that he is the candidate of the Republican party. Mr. Delamator, General Hastings and others before them canvassed the state to realize their ambition to be nominated jfor gov ernor. Mr. Stone i 3 only one of the many who did that, and in the case of Mr. Delamator he may find a pre cedent for his nomination, not by can vass, hut by Mr. Quay." It is part of the history of the Har risburg convention that nominated Stone that his meager majority of the delegates over the opposing candidates was secured by Senator Quay's inter cession. It was ground out of the ma chine on orders, precisely as Mr. Dela mater's nomination was forced eight years ago. In his own person—in his own in dividuality—in this campaign Mr. Stone is hardly thought of by any party as a candidate. He is accepted by friend and foe simply as Quay's man. That is what the people will vote on.—Pittsburg Post, Oct. 28. SOMEJFS. If you disapprove the custom of sell ing and trading the public offices, from constable to congressman, for the main tenance of a political machine, you must, in consistency, vote for Mr. Jenks and his colleagues. If your conscience revolts at the use of the state moneys for the upholding of a political machine, through unlaw fully loaning them to banks without in terest, or at a small interest payable, not to the state, but to the machine, its leaders or its favorites, your duty is equally plain. If you would wrest the pardon board, the new capitol commission, the sinking fund revenue commissions from Re publican machine control, there is one and only one way of accomplishing your object, and that way is to vote the whole Democratic state ticket. If you would have the schools, the charities and all other beneficiaries of the state receive the moneys lawfully voted them at the time when they are lawfully due, you can achieve your ob ject by electing Mr. Jenks governor. If you believe the people should dic tate both the legislation of the state end the execution of the statutes when enacted. Instead of allowing these great privileges to go, by your default and machine connivance, to a number of fa vored wealthy corporations and monop olies, then the path you should tread is, at least this once, the path of the Dem ocratic party. If, in short, you want clean state gov ernment In all its departments, the Democratic leaders are this year your only safe leaders. A MONOPOLY OF LIGHT. The Standard Oil company owns or controls the best paying gas plants in our cities and towns. The Standard Oil company controls absolutely the supply of oil and parafino candles. This gives to one monopoly the power to lix the prices of gas, oil and candles, and leaves it with but one competitor in the market for the supplying of arti ficial light—and thereby hangs a tale. The introduction of electric light in cities and towns has proved a verita ble bonanza to the large stockholders as well as a benefit to everybody, bur glars and policemen excepted. The one drawback in the way of fu ture gain has been the growing fear upon the part of stockholders that, act ing under the persuasion of intelligent, honest citizens, municipal authorities would see the wisdom of constructing electric light plants, and thus free their constituencies from the exactions of electric light companies. To prevent the building of plants by municipalities a bill was passed in 1895 and again in 1897 prohibiting municipal authorities from engaging In the busi ness of erecting electric light plants un less by purchase they would first obtain control over all the private plants in operation. The bill was twice vetoed. The trend of public sentiment on the gubernatorial question could not well be plainer. The result depends wholly upon the Democratic voters. If they are all dutiful to their principles, and come out to vote, Mr. Jenks and his colleagues are sure winners. dr.david favorite HfWvsßemedy The one sure cure for J The Sidneys,Rver and Blood John Itrcnnan Dies Suddenly. John Hrennun died suddenly this morning at the residence of his (laugh ter, Mrs. Daniel Boyle, on Carbon street, near Centre.

No arrangements for the funeral had 1 been when the Tin HUNK went to press. An Enthusiastic Welcome Home. The announcement in Thursday's TRI BUNE of the home-coming of John Mc- Klnley, Jr., one of the heroes of Santi ago. brought hundreds of people to the Lehigh Valley station to meet the 8.32 o'clock train that evening. The town turned out, en masse to welcome home the only representative of Freeland who reached Cuba, and while no previous ar rangements had been mado the reception given him was creditable and enthusias tic. The St. Patrick's band escorted Mr. McKinley to his home, and it was with difficulty he made his way through the surging crowd. Congratulations upon his safe return and his recovery from his dangerous attack of typhoiil and malarial fever were showered upon him by the hundreds. Mr. McKinley has been granted a fur lough of thirty days. He is yet quite weak and may have to apply for an ex tension of the time. When he finds himself able to resume his soldier duties he will return to his company, Battery H, Fourth United States artillery, now located at Fortress Monroe, Va. A C*oo<l Minstrel Show.
