For Weak Men With Nervous De-
bility This is Certainly the
Chance Of a Tifnfinon

Weak men suffering from nervous debility,
weakened powers and exhausted vigor, can
now take new hope. Here is something which
will powerfully interest them. 1t is fact
that until now sufferers have been debarred
from seeking a cure by the great specialists
in these complaints owing to the cost of trav-
ell to the large city and the high fees charged
by these eminent physicians.
Here, therefore, is chance for the weak
men in our community which should not be
lost DIR. Greene, of "a Temple Place, Bos-
ton, Mass, who has the largest practice in the
world, and who is without doubt the most
successful specialist in curing this class of
mail to all weakened, vigorless and nerve
exhausted men. You have the privilege of
consulting DR.. Greene by letter describing
your complaint and he will, after carefully
considering your condition, send you letter
fully explaining all your symptoms, telling
you everything about your complaint so
plainly that you will understand exactly what
ais you. He will also give you his advice,
based upon his vast experience and wonder
ful success in treating and curing such cases,
as to just what to do to get cured. All this
will cost you nothing and you can thus have
consultation with the best-known physician

specialist in the world, without leaving home

doing a good work. The western
counties are showing a republican
gain while some, of the other counties
show a democratic gain. L. Nj. Rich
ards. an old Barton boy, who was
Col. Proctor's orderly In the 10Th
Regt., himself very prominent in
Nebraska politics, says if election
were held now the state would give
10000 republican majority. The
chairman of the Republican State
Committee has great confidence that
the republicans will win.
Vermonters in the West are very
proud of the record Vermont made on
Sept. 1st, when she rolled up ma
iority of almost 10000 for what we
believe to be right and honest. We
have heard of the collapse of our
ssBilly'' after his speech in New York,
and while we have pity for him as a
man, we shall be very willing to see
his doctrines buried so deep on the
next election day, that they will not
rise to annoy and do injury to the ma
ton longer. Truly, I.P.G.

Mr.. Bryan accepts the Populist nom
ination for the presidency without
departing from the platform adopt
ed at Chicago" OF course he does.
The platform adopted at Chicago is
more Populistic than Democratic. 1t
contains, as Harry Bingham says,
"things that are not Democratic. a nd
never can be Democratic,n and
Harry Bingham is good deal better
judge of Democracy than Mr.. Bryan.
If anything were needed further 10
prove the Populistic character of that
which poses as the regular Democ-
racy Mr.. Bryan's acceptance of the
ST. Louis nomination "without de-
parting from the platform adopted at
Chicago furnishes it. 1t shows
Bryan to have spoken the truth at
Mt. Vernon, Illinois, when he declar-
ed that he was not a Democrat. He
is Populist.

MERE GUESSWORK.

Nearly everything that comes to
the public regarding an impending
settlement of the Armenian question
may be safely set down as mere guess
work. GAS to the Armenian cues
tion," writes Mr.. Harold Frederick in
the New York Times, s'two things
tend to show the existence of an emit
ente cordial between Russia and Eng
land in this matter. One is the favor
shown to Lord Salisbury and the high
honor bestowed on him. Another is
the perhaps unwilling but very de-
cided improvement in the tone of the
Russian press, although that press is
very careful to impress on its readers
the fact that this is only decent civil
ity to the people in whose house their
master happens to be lodging. What
ever has been suggested, or discussed
or even decided, at Balmoral, the ul
by those who best and are nearest to
the highest actors, depends on the
events and conference of the next few
days in France. From Vienna comes
the mysterious message that all is
honorably settled, but the terms are
not stated. 1t seems more than prob
able that the settlement may take the
form of combining the Armenians
within certain districts under the
triple protection of Russia, France
and England, and yet a short study
of the map will show the difficulty of
an Armenian pale"

Gen. Edward S. Bragg, in a speech
recently in the Fifth district of Wis
consin, advised the sonnd money
democrats to vote for the reelection
of Congressman Samuel S. Barney,
the republican nominee, as he repre- :
sents their ideas on the money ques-
ton, and the silver democratic candi-
date, George Winans, does not.
But why stop here? If it is advis-
able for the sound money democrats
of the Fifth Wisconsin district to vote
for the republican candidate for con-
gress because he represents their
ideas on the money question, why is
it not advisable for the sound money
democrats all over the country to
vote for Mckinley because he repre-
sents their ideas on the money ques-
ton? The election of Mckinley as
President is Of infinitely more i'm
portance to the sound money inter-
ests of the country than the e-clec-
ton of Congressman Barney and we
do not see how General Bragg or any
other member of the national dem
ocracy can consistently advocate
half way honesty of voting.

The treasury returns for September
show every feature that goes to make
up an unfavorable statement. The
receipts have fallen, the expenses
have increased and the deficit is
growing. The receipts stand at $24,-
5s4, 24s, against $27, 549,67s year ago.
The falling off in receipts from GUS
toms is the cause of this reduction.
A fictitious credit from the seignior-
age on the coinage of silver dollars
DISCUSSES in part the extent of this
deficit, but taking the figures as they
stand, it is enough to know that in
September, 1896, the deficit was ST.
995, 29O, while in September, 1895,
there was a surplus of 1929, 1876.
Nothing is palmer than our inability
to run the government on our current
revenue under tariff schedule which
damns the party that forced it on our
statue books.

the largest ever produced in that

the tonnage of cane delivered at the

Bradford, of all places goes SO far as
to utter an editorial eulogy of the

that they "approve on principle OF
the Mckinley policy as it has been in

the leading journals attached to his
cause" Protection as Maj. McKin

A Bonanza in Oil.
Much Excitement in the Northern Part OF
Pennsylvania.

Much interest is being centered in
the oil fields of the northern part of
this State, Several weeks ago parties
began to open up an abandoned fields
in Mexican county, and the venture
is proving bonanza. New towns are
beng built, where but a short time
ago was a wilderness. The boom has
centered at village called Chipmonk,
and it is SAID that twenty-five houses
were built there in two days.
The excitement rivals the scenes
that were enacted in the oil regions
almost thirty years ago.
