A STARTLING NEW DEPARTURE.
The Philadelphia Times is for Bryan and the
Whole Democratic Ticket.

The most interesting and startl-
ing feature Of the campaign in the
Eastern States is the announce
ment by the Philadelphia Times of
its purpose to advocate the election
OF Bryan and the whole Democratic
ticket, national, State and local.
There is no better newspaper in the
United States than the Philadelphia
Times. 1t has one of the finest
newspaper plants in America, and
staff OF editors, reporters, special
contributors and correspondents nm
surpassed in enterprise, ability and
dash. 1t is bound to make things
lively and it will be a powerful fac
tor in the campaign. Every Demo
crat will read the Times, and Re-
publicans who want to keep abreast
OF things cannot we'll do without it..
The Times is the only Democratic
newspaper south of New York,
north of Baltimore and east Of Pitts
burg having the full Associated
Press service, and as a newspaper
covering every field of human in
terest it has no superior.

litical Judgment is conceded to be
as good as that of any man in the
country, was in Washington last
week, and said of the outlook ;
"There is drift-a very decided
drift--in favor of the Democrats
which justi6es the hope that Bryan
will be elected. Political cond''
tions seem much as they were III
1892, The men who are managing
for the Democrats in New VOTE
say that they are going to carry
the State. They are sincerely con-
fident. They believe they are go
ing to succeed. The Democfanc
managers generally feel confidence
in the general situation and believe
that Mr.. Bryan is going TO Ds
elected. The drift is strongly III

The Milton DAILY Standard, in
speaking of the Democratic candi-
date for Congress, in this district,
says Rufus K. Polk, the nomi-
nee, is descendant of President
James X. Polk, of Tennessee. He
was born in that state thirty-three
years ago, and came to Pennsylva-
MIA when he was fifteen years Old
He graduated from Lehigh Univer-
sity and fourteen years ago located
in Danvilie, in the employ of the
Montour Iron & Steel Company.
He held a number Of positions
while in their employ and in four
years time was made assistant sup
erintendent, He afterward re-
signed that position to be superin-
tendent of the North Branch Steel
Works. -Four years ago the firm
of Howe & Polk was formed and
the Mahoning Rolling Mill bought,
which plant is still operated by the
same firm. Mr.. Polk was the Dem
ocratic nominee for Congress in

of Columbia county. He was

Thursday evening Mrs. w. p.
Zehrer of Mainville, lighted lamp
in the kitchen and went in another
part OF the house. Seated on the
floor was a little two years old
daughter amusing itself in childlike
fashion. During the mothers alb
sence the little one made its way to
the matches which lay incased in a
small box on the table, and began
to eat the heads off of them. The
combustible substance of twenty
five had been swallowed, when she
was taken suddenly and violently
i'll. Medical aid was summoned,
but it was too late. Death came
Friday morning after the child had
suffered great agony.
