7ELLER'S UNCLOVED HAND
Declares the Fight for Silver
 Will Continue.
NO HOPE FOR THE PEOPLE
May Be Expected from the Combination of Gold Democrats and Republicans.
 Must Have Open Mints.

Pottsville, Pa, Oct. 26.-lA letter bear ing on political conditions generally from Senator Henry M. Teller of Colorado has been received by William F. Wilhelm. president of the republican silver party in this state In his letter MT. Teller says:
 T am quoted as saying thsre was lit tie hope for bime'tall.sm. That is one of the many falsehoods of the good press. have said there s no hope for 1t un- der the Mckinley administration, and I ann confident that nothing will be done for the plain pseppe of the country dur ing this administiation. I have no inter esd in the fight between Tammlany and the republicans. I do not hope for Georges election, although it would please me greatly if he could succeed. The election of the Tammany candidate will not indicate that the democratic party of the country is going to aban- don silver.
 "The democratic party is committed to silver and wiM continue on that line and the gold democrats will go to the repub- 1ican party and the influence of the gold democrats will have the effect of So de- gralding and so debasing the party as to make thn old Iibertv-Jnyipo rsnubttca rts leave it. I expect to see the republican party in the hands of the gold repubf- cans and the gold democrats and under the domination and control of the worst element ever known in American politics.
 "I do not care what your Pennsylvania platform says about the per capita cir cula ton, Governor Hastings and all the republican leaders of your state know that platform was made to get into office on and I expect to see the influence of your state given and your senators and members of congress brought to bear on congress to retire the greenbacks and treasury notes and to let the banks and bankers of the country issue whatever paper money they think the country needs and that issue will then be deter mined by the interest of the banks and bankers and not in the interest of com merce or the people.
 "The fight for silver is still on and will be urtil we get a righteous monetary system and We never will have this until vre get oDen hints for gold and silver at a rate to be established by law"

THE ANSWER A SECRET.
Neither Spain Nor the Washington Authorities
 Will Give It Out.

Washington, Oct. 26.-Confrmation from official sources is given to the re- port that the Spanish authorities at Madrid delivered to Minister Woodford at Madrid the answer of Spain to the representations contained in Minister Woodford's instructions. It is not doubt ed that Minister Woodford has advised the authorities on the exs:ntial features of the reply.
 The text of the anAwer is known to be very lengthy, so much so that it is doubted whether the full answer will be sent by cable. If attempted, how ever, it will be long and laborious pro- cess of translation and transmission, the original Spanish being first translated into English, then reduced to cipher then cabled, then translated back from cipher to English.
 As the actual delivery of the docu- ment into Minister Woodford's hand did not occur until late yesterday, these pro- cesses would delay the receipt of the text probably beyond today, if any at tempt was made to cable it in full.
 The statement is reaffirmed by officials that no publicity of the Wcodford in- structions or of Spain's answer will be made at Madrid or Washington until after the assembling of congress and it is generally believed that the two gov ernments have reached an understand ing as to holding, back their letters for the present.

Triumph of Civilizations

As civilization advances diseases increase. Mans ingenuity has been able to supply nearly all the necessities of life as fast as they arise, yet stre <Se to say, although three-fourths of the Human family are af- ficted with some form of catarrhal or bronchial trouble, scientists and doctors have not been able to find a specific for those dangerous maladies. Not because they did not use their best efforts, but for the reason that the only infallable cure for catarrhal and bronchial complaints was hidden in the frozen fastnesses of Alaska. But thanks to mans courage that region is being thoroughly explored and today we are receiving precious gold and another article of far more value to mankind from that region. That is the Great Alaskan Bo- tanic Remedy Anti-Catarrh-a guaranteed cure for all Catarrhal and Bronchial trou- bles. Send address and receive an inter- esting account of its discovery.

No woman can long retain her general health who neglects the health of the organs that constitute her womanhood She may suffer only locally for a time Eventually tile nerves are ruined by the constant wear and tear of pain. They cease to inpart the necessary nervous activity to the various organs of the body. A general and serious breakdown follows.
 wonderful medicine for weak, nervous women, who through local troubles are threatened with a general breakdown is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It acts directly on the delicate organs that are dis tinctly feminine. It restores them to vigor and health. It allays inflammation and sootlies pain. It gives the tortured nerves rest and permits them to resume their natural function of directing healthy ac- tivity of all the organs. It prepares a wo- man for wifehood and motherhood. It makes baby's advent easy and almost pain less aud insures the child's health. It is the best woman's medicine and more than ooooo women have said so over their sigma lures. Druggists sell it.
 "I cannot say too much for Dr. Pierce's Favor ite Prescription" writes Miss Clara Baird, of Bridgeport, Montgomery Co, Pa. ,sI feel it my Quty 10 say to ali women who may be suffering from any weakness disease of the distinctly feIninine organism, that it is the best medicine on eartn TOT them to use. I cannot praise it too highly for the good it did me. If any one doubts this give them my name and address"
 Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are a sure, safe, speedy and permanent cure for con stipation. They never gripe. One is gentle laxative, and two a mild cathartic.

Advice TO a Young Man.

Remember you have to work
whether you handle a pick or a pen
a wheel barrow or set of dishes,
digging bitches, editing a paper or
ringing an auction bell you must
work, If yon look around you will
see that the men who are the most
able to live the rest Of their days
without work are the men who
work the hardest, Don't be afraid
of killing yourself with oyerwork
1t is seldom done on the sunny side
of thirty They die some times,
it is because they quit work at 9 p,
m, and don't get home until 2 a m,
1t is the wasted interval of dissipa-
tion that does them harm,
There are men who do not work,
but the world is not proud of them,
1t does not know theirnames, even;
it only SIMPLY speaks of them as
sod So-and-so's boys, Nobody
cares for them; the great busy
world doesn't know that they are
there. SO find out what to be and
do and take off your coat and go at
it, The buster you are the less
harm you will get into, sweet
er will be your sleep, brighter and
happier your holiday, and the bet
ter satisfied will the world be with
you.-Bob Burdette,
