falling prices means dangerous and

means slow trade and glutted mar

(St. Louis Republic.l

II. K. Thurber of New York, senior
partner of the firm of H. K. Thurber
& Bro. the largest wholesale grocery
house in America, has for years been
one of the chief props of the republi-
can organization in the Empire state.
But Mr.. Thurber cannot stand Mark
Hanna and his syndicate politics and
has come out boldly for Bryan and
free coinage.
j. s. Hackley, one of the best
known commercial travellers in
America knows Mr.. Thurber very
we'll, and when he heard that the big
New York merchant had renowned
his old political affiliations and de-
clared for Bryan he wrote to him en-
quiring if it were true. Mr.. Hackley
received the following reply:
New York, Sept. 15.-(Mr. j. L.
Hackley)-Dear Sir: Yours of the 9th
inst. at hand. Mckinley cannot car
ry New York State if the masses of
the party vote the ticket and l think
they will. The labor Unions are with
us, and where there is gold demo
crat we lose, there are as l believe
three silver republicans to take his
place.
The fight between Miller and Platt
will help us in a small degree. If the
New York Kings and Queens demo-
Gratis can go to the Harlem river with
10000 majority instead, as formerly
with 10000 to 10000, believe the
state will be ours. The excitement is
SO great and feeling so strong it
covers very many employees from
talking and many debtors also, but
their ballots will go for Bryan. l

Enthusiastically as they do now for

Baltimore, Nov. 3. - Cardinal Glib

" and in thoroughly impartial way
upon the approaching election and it's

the many good qualities Of the Ameri-

belief in religion, their love OF fair

age. He then went on to say:

We were on the verge Of dread revo-

will find that it was but q bloodless
revolution, one effected not by bullets,
but ballots. A man is to be chosen to
the highest position in the gift of his
fellows and important issues are at
stake. Yet OH next Wednesday morn

the will of the majority. The country

Philadelphia, Nov 3.-Private letters
received in this city from Havana
throw light upon recent events in the
Island Of Cuba. One letter in particu-
lar deals with late occurrences in
Pinar del Rio and gives very hope
full view of the present Cuban situa-
ton. The letter says Antonio Maceo
has not attempted to reach Havana
province, and that although he made
an attack upon the city of Artimisa.
which was partially destroyed, he did
not endeavor to force passage OF the
famous trocha. On the other hand, 1t
is stated in the communication. which
is from Capt. Degrade, who was re.
Gently in this city and who is an Of
flcer of Gen. Maceo's staff. that the
rebel army in Pinar del Rio province
is not DESTROYS of making war In Ha-
vana and Matanzas at this time. Both
of these provinces are comparatively
low and fat, and the effect of the
copious rains upon the soil is still det-
rimental to the proper handling of an
army.

to Cure Consumption and
All Lung troubles.
Nothing could be fairer, more philan.
thropic to carry more joy in it's wake
than the offer of Z. A. Slocum, NJ. c.,
of 1873 Pearl street, New Yorl. City.
Confident that he has discovered an
absolute cure for consumption and all
pulmonary complaints, and to make its
great merits known, he will send, free,
three bottles, to any reader OF this
paper who is suffering from chest,
bronchial, throat and lung troubles or
consumption.
Already this new scientific course of
medicine" has permanently cured thou
sands of apparently hopeless cases.
The Doctor considers it his religious
duty-a duty which he owes to human
ity-to donate his infallible cure.
Offered freely, apart from its ihher-
ent strength, is enough to commend 1t,
aud more so is the perfect confidence
of the great chemist making the prop
osition.
He has proved consumption to be a
durable disease beyond any doubt.
There will be no mistake in sending
the mistake will be in overlooking the
generous invitation. He has on file in
his American and European labol-ltor-
les testimonials Of experience from
those cured, in all parts Of the world.
Delays are dangerous. Address T..

all reports received feel certain that this

ceive not less than $4,000 majority. Taylor,

The Republican state Committee furnishes
the following statement: 1.-The vote, II
counted as cast, will give Tennessee to
Mckinley and Hobart, as well a. to TILL
man for governor, by a large majority; but

SciatiCa and Lumbago.
A WOMAN SUFFERS FOR SEW
ERAL MONTHS,

From the Free Press, Corning, Iowa.
A severe attack of sciatic rheuma-
tism and lumbago, completely cured,
sounds like marvellous story to those
acquainted with the excruciating pains
which accompany such diseases, and
the unsuccessful treatment many have
tried, but that such cure was
really effected is witnessed by the fol-
lowing sworn statement of Mrs. Frank
Houck, of Hayes, Iowa:
1T was in the spring of 1893 that I
was first afflicted with rheumatic pains
In my left limb. consulted physicians
of recognized ability, who succeeded
In relieving the pain for time but
in a little while the rheumatism re-
turned In a more violent form than
before. Again sought the physicians
aid, and in my endeavors to find re-
lief, tried several Of the most promi-
nent physicians in various cities in this
vicinity. Some Of them succeeded in
allaying the pain for a short period,
but none gave permanent relief, though
tried several.
''At last. in the spring Of 1894. sciatic
rheumatism and lumbago in its sever
est form set in and was confined to
my bed continually, although previous
to this I had been very sick the major
part of the time. All remedies pre-
scribed did me little or no good. At
last, at the solicitation Of a friend,
who saw an article about DR.. williams
Pink Pills for Pale People in one OF
our county papers. I decided to try
that remedy, as I thought 1t would
surely do me no harm, . zen though
1t might not benefit mo materially.
II secured q half doztn boxes Of
the time had taken two boxes began
to experience relief. continued the
use Of this remedy as prescribed. and
when the six boxes were gone I was
fully convinced they were doing me a
great deal Of good. now consider
myself entirely cured, aud firmly be-
leve owe the marvellous results to
DR.. Williams Pink Pills. A great
many of roy neighbors are now using
this wonGe:sa remedy for various all
ments and all are being greatly bene-
fitted by its use. I began taking Pink
