POLITICAL PlCKUPS.

John M. Powell, of Allentown. was in
town this week and judging from his
talk we are inclined to believe that he
has gotten himself into good company
since leaving Freeland. John is now
one of the prominent members of the
Allentown Bimetallic Club, and his
views on the silver question startled his
gold friends here. Mr.. Powell states he
gave the money question two years of
careful study and is satisfied that un-
limited coinage will benefit the entire
country. The TRIBUNE admires Mr..
PowelFs courage in doing what he
thinks right, and his course should be
followed by those Republicans in the
vicinity who think likewise but fear to
speak.
The Democratic county committee, OF
Carbon, held a meeting on Monday and
selected September 2l as the date for
holding the county convention. While
In session the committee adopted resolu-
tions indorsing the nomination of Bryan
and Sewall, giving hearty approval to
the Chicago platform and congratu-
lating the Democracy of the state on
the selection of John NJ. Garman as
state chairman.
Senator Tillman, of South Carolina. is
speaking to thousands every night in
Schuylkill, and the bmetalists are
making arrangements to bring more
Tree silver orators to the county. Con-
gresham Town, of Minnesota. and
Senator Teller, of Colorado, are both ex-
pected to stump the county during the
next week.
lt Is Claimed that had Paul Dasch re-
leased his boom twenty four hours
earlier he could have had the nomina-
tlon without trouble. As it was, nearly
every delegate had promised his support
to Shitfer or Iltchler before Paul
entered the field. His debut, however,
was good one, and he will fare better
next time.
The Democrats of the first, second and
third legislative districts held conven-
tlons on Monday and made the following
nominations: First district, Philip
Weiss, Wilkesbarre; second, w. j. San
derS, Wyoming; third, Eugene Daven-
port, Plymouth.
L. M. Dullard and Deemer Beidleman
withdrew from the commissionership
fight at Wilkesbarre on Tuesday before
the convention met.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1896-08-27

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and prescrib-
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment, pro-
nounced it incura5le. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires corstitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from ten drops to a
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys-
tenn. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials. Address.

list"
Nationalism is not communism, but,
US Looking Backward" shows, admits
of accumulation and inheritance of prop
erty, there being no restrictive laws,
nothing to make laws about" Mr.
Bellamy says. OF course organization
of industry under any system requires
regulations and order, as every game
has its rules, but coo operation leads to
freedom. With the land owned equally
by all any one unwilling to cooperate
with others could always go and live
without "any kind of socialism" Oh
land not in use by the national family
Of course he would not have the ma
tional annual credit emitting him to his
choice of the national products and
services. AS each would pay for his
home according to size, elegance and
location, no rent would go into private
pockets, and the landlord would be ex-
tinct. No money being used, it would
be impossible to accumulate standing
orders against all wealth or tribute
rights against labor. AS business men
do not now interfere with the habits or
opinions of their partners, so an equal
footing Of all, economically, would do
more than anything else could to insure
freedom of thought, speech and publica-
ton and individuality of dress and man
ners and cultivation. As no one can de-
eide just how much the character of
each member Of the community raises

The County Ticket.
From the Wilkesbarre Newsdealer.

From the Wilkesbarre Newsdealer.
The ticket nominated by the Demo-
cratic county convention has its defects,
but it is strong enough to win. Had
McGraw or Koons been named as one of
the commissioners the ticket would have
been an ideal one.
John M. Garman, the nominee for
congress, is very strong candidate.
He needs no introduction to the people
of this county. He is man of energy
and ability and will make himself heard
on the floor of the house.
d. j. Mccarthy has always been a
hard-working Democrat, and, it is safe
to say, that he will leave no stone un-
turned to secure his election. If sue
cessful at the polls he will be tho equal
if not the superior of great many men
now holding seats in the state senate.
r. G. Htchler, the nominee for treas
urer, comes from one of the oldest and
most respectable German-American
families in the county. He has elements
of strength that make him a winning
candidate.
j. j. Brislin, who was named for reg
lister, has a large following. He has
filled a position under Register Daven-
port for nearly three years past and has
given the best of satisfaction. He is in
every way qualified to fill the Office to
which he aspires.
The nomination of John Quincy for
commissioner is a victory for Wilkes
barre. 1t has been a generation or
more since this city had a representa-
tive in the commissioners office. Mr..
Quincy is as honest as the day is long
and his election will be triumph for
better methods.
Mr.. Finn, the second nominee for
| commissioner, comes from the fifth legis-
lative district, which has always been
loyal to Democratic principles. Mr..
Finn has always taken an active inter
est in party affairs and his friends claim
he is justly entitled to some reward.
With the strong silver sentiment now
prevailing in the county there is no
reason why the ticket nominated yester-
day should not be elected by hand
some majority.
