The Quay Machines Triumph.

The Quay machine triumphed in the
Pennsylvania Republican Convention
at Harrisburg, Thursday, and the Quay
candidate for Governor, Congressman
William A. Stone, of Allegheny, was
nominated over Charles w. Stone by a
vote of 1893 to 1874 John Wanamaker
withdrew from the contest at the last
minute, and his votes were cast for the
anti-Quay Stone.
This is the closest fight for political
existence that Senator Quay was ever
forced to wage An editorial in the
Philadelphia Ledgcr:
''The ticket would not be a strong
one if it did not in its chief parts rep
resent nothing so much as the sinister
spirit and purposes of Quayism. He
made it; it is his, not the Republican
party's ticket. The election of w. A.
Stone for Governor would simply mean
the continuance of Quay influences in
the government of the State, an in
huence that has corrupted our politics
and fostered grave abuses in the ad-
ministratiOn of the Treasury Depart
ment. For thst reason W. A. Stone
will be opposed at the polls by indie
pendent Republicans, who demand a
very business-like administration of
State affairs.

THE KENT COUNTY MANDAMUS CASE
Union Republican Kent County Election Cases
to Come Before the Supreme
Court.

The new Supreme Court of this
State will meet in Dover the latter
part of this month and the Union Re-
publican election cases will be pushed
despite the fact the terms for which
most of the men who were interested
were elected have expired. The idea
is to get a decision so as to show who
was elected, and incidentally to show
that certain people held office to which
they were not elected.
This case has excited more than
usual interest in this State. It will be
remembered that when the vote of
Kent county was counted after the
election of 1896 that the Union Repub-
licans of Kent county had elected men,
bers of the House and Senate, the
sheriff, coroner and members of the
Levy Court. The Democrats refused
to count all of the returns and part
of the board gave certificates of cleo
ton to the Democratic candidates.
Members of the constitutional conven-
tiOn were also elected by the Union
Republicans. The Republicans brought
proceedings to compel the election
officers to issue the proper certificates,
but the court decided that this could
not be done for the reason that it
would first be necessary to compel the
board of canvass to meet and properly
canvass the returns. This was then
done and the board met as required
The Democrats then appealed the
case to the case to the Supreme Court
No time had been fixed under the con-
stitutiOn for a meet of this court, and
so the case could not be heard in time
to accomplish much.
In the meantime the constitutional
convention met, seated half of the
Democrats who claimed to be elected,
and half of the Republicans who were
elected, adopted the new constitution
and adjourned. Those offices are no
more. The Legislature seated the
Democratic candidates and with the
exception of the one senator, who
holds over, the terms of all the men,
bers have practically expired, as the
Legislature has adjourned sine die.
The Levy Court of Kent county, has
been remodeled by the General Assem-
bly,, and the members named so that
there is no danger of unseating the
Democrats in that body. Governor
Watson refused to commission the Dem.
ocratic candidates for coroner and sher-
iff on the showing made by their GER
tifcates from part of the board of can
vass and the old officials are holding
on until the present time. The cleo
tion will show but one thing, and that
is who was elected in that memorable
struggle in Kent county.

My righteousness is rags, and 1 am left

Through him that overcometh did my arm

Who, but the Great Physician, the Balm of

my way:
Who shall bear me DER the flood into end

For my sinfulness is great, and it bears me

Shall the river ever flow between my heart 5

During the summer of 1891, Mr..
Chas. P. johnson, a well known at
torney of Louisville, KY, had very
severe attack of summer complaint.
Quite a number of different remedies
were tried, but failed to afford any re-
lief. A friend who knew what was
needed procured him bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea
Remedy, which quickly cured him and
he thinks saved his life. He says that
there has not been day since that
time that he has not had this remedy
in his household. He speaks of it in
the highest praise and takes much
pleasure in recommending it when
ever an opportunity is offered. For
