Says the Chicago Times, Secretary
Sherman having taken occasion to deny
positively that he was using the patronage
of his place to further his presidential
aspirations. is met with plump and cir :
cumstantial narrative of the whole course
of his proceeding in one state-namely,
North Carolina. Not leg is left for him
to stand on. The correspondent of the
New York Times. witch made the original
charge, proves it in this case to the very
letter. This is the summing up. sustained
by the most minute specifications:
81. That Mr.. W, j. Kirkpatrick. q
confidential agent of the secretary of the
treasury, with personal letters of introduc
ton from him, has recently been travelling
through North Carolina with no other
purpose than to give encouragement to
Mr.. Sherman's canvass for the presidency,
and that he told Col. T. b. Keogh, the
secretary of the national Republican COM
mittee, and then chairman of the North
Carolina Republican committee, that it he
would throw his influence in aid of the
secretary. be could have a good office.
even though he performed no service for
bis pay.
-. That. at an interview of his own
making, Secretary Sherman. though being
assured that the sentiment OF North
Carolina Republicans was solidly tor
Grant. asked Col. keogh to try and divide
the delegation in his interest. intimating
at the same time that Col Keogh's friend,
Mr.. Powers. would be provided for at the
government expense
%. That Mr.. Cannady and other
treasury officers. who are paid by the peo-
pie to do certain responsible work in
North Carolina. were ready 10 Washing
ton to hold consultations respecting Secre-
tary Sherman's presidential canvass, and
that when they could no longer be used 10
that direction the secretary wisely con-
Guided that they had better go home.

some SOAP, and can testify with great pleasure to
the effect they have had in my case, In eight days

= WONDERFUL MEDICINE


Certificate of a Prominent Citizen
of Adrian, Mich, who had not
Walked without Clutches for
two years. He threw them away
in "a Hours after the first ap-
pIication of Wizard Oil.
DR.. HAsn1N:-When I met your agent
here, in September, had been two years suf-
fering severely with Rheumatism, half of that
time confined to the house, and three months
at a time to my bed. The balance of the
time was compelled to crawl around upon
clutches. used medicines without number,
including large quantity of morphine, all of
which proved worse than useless. AS to what
/ suffered, the English language cannot tell
it to any one who has not tried its realities.
The first application of Wizard Oil gave
me relief in fifteen minutes, and dispelled my
doubts in twenty-four hours. I used a bottle
a day for ten days. The next morning after
the use of the first bottle,
left my Clutches at home and
walked down town without them
for the first time i'm two years.
Since thenI have not used them, and can now
split cord of wood as quick as any man in
Adrian Some of my friends at first thought
such a sudden cure would kill me, but wanted
change, though it should be death.
That all who read this may know how I
have been, l will say, when commenced
using Wizard Oil, I could reach around my
leg above the knee with one hand.
L was reduced to a mere skele-
ton, and most of the time
when / moved upon
clutches, or tried to stand
without them. i could not raise
either foot from the floor.
I used fifteen bottles in all, but have not used
any for two months. I now feel as well rs
ever did in my life, and have gained thirty-five
pounds IN flesh. But must tell YOU it seems
almost like dream. You can refer to me as
often as you wish, and hundreds of the citi-
zens of Adrian will testify to the truth of
my statements.
