HARRITYTURNEDOUT
The Work Of the Pennsylvania
Democratic Convention.
STATECOMMITTEE'S ACTION INDORSED
The Platform Denounces the Single Gold
standard-sympathy Expressed For
Striking Miners-walter f. Ritter
Named For Auditor General.

Reading, Pa, Sept 1.-The Demo-
cratic state convention, which met in
this city, nominated Walter E. Ritter Of
Lycoming county for auditor general
and Nj. r. Brown of Blairsville for state
treasurer. The matter Of the selection
OF candidates was entirely overshadow-
ed by the fight to force the retirement
OF William F. Harrity from the national
committee. The opponents of Mr.. Har-
rlty succeeded in pushing through by
vote of 29O to 1874 a resolution indorsing
James M. Guffey for his position. Mr..
Harrity's friends contend that the state
convention has no power to declare his
seat in the national committee vacant
and that he will not surrender without
fight
Chicago Platform Approved.
The platform adopted is in part as
follows:
We. the Democracy Of Pennsylvania,
In convention assembled. heartily re-
affirm and reiterate the principles of the
Democratic party as expressed in the
platform adopted by the national con-
vention at Chicago in 1896 and approved
by 6,5O0000 free and Independent voters.
We are firmly and unalterably opposed
to the single gold standard. which has
been the direct cause of the financial
distress that has fallen upon our people
since its adoption. and we are in favor
of complete and immediate return to
our original specie basis as it existed
prior to the decentralization act of 1873.
We congratulate William ]. Bryan,
the glorious champion of a righteous
cause, on his mastery leadershipin sup
port of our principles:
We denOunce the Dingley tariff law
as measure designed and passed in
answer to the demands of trusts and
monopolies, every important feature Of
which is a refuge for the protection of
some trust or combination existing in
opposition to the public good and in vio-
lation Of the common law. The sched-
ule is in brief an assessment upon the
individual citizens of the country for
the benefit of trusts in return for money
advanced to carry the recent election
and add enormously to the burdens of
labor by increasing the cost Of neces-
saries of life without enhancing in the
least respect the wages of labor.
We sympathize with the miners of the
commonwealth in their unequal strug-
gle to obtain a fair compensation for
their daily toll and declare that the an
cient and AnglO-SaXon right of trial by
jury ought to be preserved, and we de-
plore the tendency of certain federal
and state courts to detract from this
right by an unwarranted extension and
abuse Of the remedy of injunction in
differences between capital and labor.

WHAT 1T INDICATES.

Nothing so interferes with ones plans or
ambition like sickness or poor health. Have
you ever thought that your kidneys may be the
cause of your sickness7 You can easily find
out by setting aside your urine for twenty -four
hours +; a sediment or settling indicates an un-
healthy condition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble.
Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, isalso convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
1t is a source of comfort to know that DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root is the great remedy for
all kidney and bladder complaints. 1t relieves
pain, stitch or dull aching in the back, difficult
or painful urination, frequent desire to u%rinate,
scalding or pain in passing it, and quickly
overcomes that unpleasant necessity Of being
compelled to get up many times during the
night. The mild and extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. It's action is
gentle, yet immediate, the relief speedy and
the cures permanent. At druggists fifty cents
and one dollar. You may have a sample bottle
and pamphlet, both sent free by mail. Men
ton HERALD and send your address to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. The
proprietors of this paper guarantee the genuine
ness of this offer.

FOUR x DID IT.
Remarkable Success of a New Pile Cur

Remarkable Success of a New Pile Cure.
People who have suffered for years or
months from the pain and inconvenience of
that common disorder, piles, will look with
skepticism upon the claims of the makers of
the new discovery for cure of all forms of
piles, known under the name of Pyramid
Pile Cure; nevertheless the extraordinary
cures performed by this remedy are such as to
warrant the investigation of any sufferer. As
a case in point the following letter speaks for
itself.
Mr.. Henry Thomas of sub-station No. 3
Hosack Ave, Columbus, Ohio, writes as
follows
Pyramid Drug Co:
Gentlemen 81 want you to use my name
if it will be of any use toyou. l was so bad
with the Piles that lost work on that account,
Nothing did me any good. I read in Gin
cinnati Of the many cures of piles by the
Pyramid Pile Cure and went to a drug store
and asked for it. The drug clerk told me
that he had something else that he thought
was better, but l told him that l wanted to
try the Pyramid first.
The first box helped me so much that / tried
another and then to complete the cure used
I o more boxes, making four in all. l am
now completely cured, Have not a trace of
piles and l had suffered for four years with the
worst form Of Protruding piles.
suffered death from piles, but / have found
the Pyramid Pile Cure to be just as represented.
/ have recommended it to several Of my friends
and / am thankful to be able to write you
what good the remedy has done for me"
Physicians recommend the Pyramid Pile
Cure because it contains no opium, cocaine, or
mineral poison Of any kind, and because it is
so safe and pleasant to use, being painless and
applied at night. The patient is cured in a
surprisingly short time with no inconvenience
whatever.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by druggists
at 50 cents per package, and if there is any
constipation il is well to use the Pyramid
Pills at the same time with the Pile Cure, as
constipation is very often the cause of piles
and the pills efectually remove the costiye
condition. Price of pills is rs cents per
package.
Write to Pyramid Drug Co, Albion, Mich,
for little book on cause and cure of piles sent
by mail free.

AdrIft For Sixty Days, But Eight Of
Twenty-fOur Survived.
San Francisco, Nov. 20.-From Auek-
land comes a story of the terrible ex-
p%eriences Of, "a shipwrecked Samoans.
The party left the Island of Tutuila in
a large boat for two islands some 60
miles to the eastward. They were
blown out Of their course and drifted
before the wind for go days until they
made the Island of Namunui, which is
about 900 miles in a direct line from
their starting point. Nearly half the
party died in the boat, one was killed
in landing and some died on shore,
making only eight survivors. They
spread sails to catch rain, which fell
heavily, and which they stored in boxes.
The island they reached is inhabited
by people who took all possible care
Of them, but they We're in a very
emaciated condition when the steamer
picked them up.

DO 1T YOURSELF.

You can tell just AS we'll as a physician
whether your kidneys are diseased or healthy.
The way to do is TO take a bottle or glass tum-
bier, and I'll il with urine. IL there is a
scdimcnt-a powder-like substance-at the
bottom after standing a day aud night, there
is something wrong with the kidneys. An
other sure sign Of disease is q desire to urinate
often, and still another sign is pain in the
back. If urine stains linen. there is no doubt
that the kidneys are affected.
Any and all diseases Of the kidneys, liver,
bladder and Of the urinary passages and con-
stjpation of the bowels a e cured by DR..
David Kenuedy's Favorite Remedy. There
is no question about its being the best and
surest medicine in the world for such troubles.
II quickly relieves and cures inability to hold
urine, and people, young or old, who AXE il
are not compelled to get up a number of
times during the night. For putting an end
TO that scalding pain experienced in passing
urine, nothing is so good as DR.. David Ken
ned's Favorite Remedy. 1t c%orrects the bad
effects of whiskey and beer is pleasant to
the taste, and does not seem to be medicine
at all. Diseases of the kidneys and bladder
often require the use Of instruments to push
back the sandy matter so the urine can be
yoided. In such cases Favorite Remedy
should be taken without further delay or the
disease may prove fatal. 1t is sold for one
dollar q bottle at all drug stores. It is well
worth many times its price.

Business men, in business hours,
attend only to business matters
Social calls are pest adapted to the
social circle. Make your business
known in few words without loss OF
time.
Let your dealings with a stranger
be most carefully considered, and
tried friendship daily appreciated.
A mean act will soon recoil, and a
man Of honor will be esteemed.
Leave ''tricks of trade" to those
whose education was never com
pleted.
Treat all with respect, confde in
few, wrong no man. Be never afraid
to say no, and always prompt to &C
knowledge and rectify a wrong.
Leave nothing for tomorrow that
should be done to-day. Because a
friend is polite, do not think that his
time is ~valueless. Have a place for
everything and everything in its
place.
To preserve long friendship, keep
short credit the way to get credit is
to be punhual the way to preserve
is not to use it much. Settle often.
have short accounts.
Trust no mans appearances they
are often deceptive, and assumed for
the purpose Of obtaining credit.
-Rogues generally dress well. The
rich are generally plain men.
Be well satisfied before you give a
credit that those to whom you give it
are men to be trusted. Attend
strictly to your own business.

the report that DR.. Miguel Herrara y
