A NEW DEMOCRACY.
Meeting Held in Philadelphia to Take
Steps to Reorganize the Party.

Philadelphia, Feb. ga step which
is believed to be a preliminary for the
unification of the national Democratic
party was taken last night when 200
Pennsylvania Democrats and some from
other states met at a dinner in the
Bullitt building
No organization stood sponsor for the
meeting and all shades of Democrats
were represented The participants were
representative Democrats. John Cad
wallader of this city who presided, ex-
planned the object of the dinner This
meeting was called for the purpose of
putting the Democracy on its feet" he
said. and to keep it from defeat here
after"
Ex-President Grover Cleveland sent a
letter of regret in which ne said: Il
should be pleased to be present on this
occasion and testify to my support of
the political purposes it projectors have
in view. I am sorry therefore that some
pressing engagements and work prevent
my doing So.
Ex-senator David B. Hill wrote as fol-
lows:
"All such gatherings have for their
aim the unification of the Democratic
party, a renewal of allegiance to Jeffer-
sonian principles of government and the
making of plans for Democratic vic
tories deserve the enlargement OF all
our party friends. We should not be
discouraged over recent defeats. What
we need at this time is unity of action
Ex-Secretary Of the Interior Eoke

while I recognize no authority for
''reOrga nizatiOn" of the Democratic
party, vet in common with what / be-
lieve the desire the great majority of
Democrats hope to see the party in it's
next national convention adopt plat
form so sound that it can again appeal
successfully to the conservative masses
of voters
Letters were read from ex-Secretary
of Navy Herbert and others all of whom
favored a general reorganization of the
national Democratic party.
Addresses We're made by George Baer,
president OF Franklin and Marshall col
lege, Lancaster; Congressman John K.
Thayer Of Massachusetts; Ex-Governor
Pattison and others
Congressman Thayer in the course of
his remarks said:
There will never be a reorganization
Democracy until a new foundation is
built upon safe ground. I think .redemp-
ton better word than REORGANIZATION
in describing our present plight. We
must let bygones be bygones and begin
at the beginning. Incompetent and un-
worthy men must not be allowed to
hold offices in cities or towns and dele
gates to state conventions must be Sc
lected with care. With these preliminary
steps taken in all sections of the country
it will not be a difficult matter to per
feet a national organization of Demo-
Gratis who believe in and will vote for
Democrats who stand upon a Jefferson
ian platform .

SOCIALISTS GATHER.
''1Hother'' Jones Makes Fiery Speech
to New York Audience.

New York, Feb. 23.@"Nfother'' Jones,
who led the big parade of coal miners
during the great anthracite strike in
Pennsylvania, made a fiery speech for
socialism last night before six thousand
socialists who packed the main floor and
galleries of the Grand Central Palace.
When Mother" Jones arrived all the
seats had been taken and scarcely
standing room was left.
Friends and comrades" she said,
with a dramatic gesture, ''as we march
through the valleys and mountains Of
present day civilization we catch
glimpses of awakening Of the people to
socialism. The American flag which
waves over US will soon have a. new
meaning. The first color shall stand for
the public ownership of the means of
productions: the second, that the people
shall own the means Of distribution, and
that of the third for the ownership of
the means OF exchange.
who owns these things but a band
of robbers in Wall street2 The coming
problem for the people is how to own
the produce.
I'VE now see the sun of socialism
rising in the blackness of night.
Stop the murder of babies who work
spectors who allow this sort of thing
should be put behind prison bars They
should be in prison for the rest Of their
lives.
I'VE shall keep on agitating until the
people stand together and abolish the
system which murders babies"

AN OFFICERS WIFE
Comments on the Food Question.

IT had a very curious experience with
food and its relation to the body. Some
time ago from unavoidable exposure to
a high wind for some time, I was at
tackled seriously with neuralgia in the
head, which ultimately became chronic
and I suffered much, as added to the
pain I had a strange roaring or surg
ing sound in my head, which kept me
awake at night, and was of the most
unpleasant character.
1T was not in the ears, but seemed
in the very center of the head and was
extremely dis1 essing. Occasionally I
had dizziness come over me with the
strange roaring. Medicines seemed to
produce no beneficial result. I finally
concluded that the famous brain food
known as Grape-Nuts would be the
proper thing for me to use, and start
ed in. using it every day.
AT once I began to recover; the
neuralgia pairs left and steadily and
surely the distressing roaring in my
brain which had so tortured me, be-
gan to disappear. 1t grew fainter and
fainter with long spells of rest between
the return Of the hateful noises, until,
in q comparatively short time they
stopped completely and entirely

feeling, which We refer to as clear as

of the food. it is a most delicious article
and can assure you have an ardent

This is a plain, honest, statement of
my case and what Grape-Nuts food has
done for me. shall ever be grateful
from my heart that it has been given
to the world and I have been one of the
fortunate people to use it. I neglected
to say that I have gained remarkably in
my general health and strength and in
flesh also since beginning the use Of
Grape-Nuts. I have not had an oppor-

Thousands Are Dying From

Several of the Russian provinces are

Amid the additional hardships of the Sc

THE condition of the peasantry in the

is equally Iamentable; but it is worst Of
all in the northern and east Volga pro-
vinces. where the people for two months
have been subsisting on roots, grasses
and offal, and are now dying of sheer
starvation.

of sufficient rolling stock prevents a dis
