Public Man.
Chicago is, as she may well be, justly
proud of her mayor She is proud for sew
the Hon. Garter 81. Harrison. There are
but few men in American politics to-day
| who can show as clear record or as de-
serving and honorable career as Mr.. Har-
| rison. From the day on which he left his
| home "in the dark and bloody ground"
| to settle the Eldorado of the western
| praries, then in its infancy, the career of
| that gentleman has been upward and on
| ward. Twice have the people chosen him
as their representative in congress from the
| Second District of Illinois, and twice did he
| acquit himself of that trust in manner
| that won for him warm spot in the hearts
of his constituency.
Twice has Mr. Harrison been called up
on to fill the Office of Mayor Of Chicago
with the highest Mayorality vote ever given
| a democrat in this great city, and twice has
| he filled that Office with honor winning the
| respect and esteem Of her. people, regard
| less of party.
Carter II. Harrison is to-day the most
| popular man in the state Of Illinois, fact
due to the zeal, the untirng energy, and the
steadfastness of purpose displayed by that
| gentleman throughout his whole public
| life. The esteem and confidence of the
| people are his in the fullest ssnse-won by
| his unfinching adherence to the right-his
unquestionable honesty Of purpose--his
| high moral character--and his uuobtrusive
obtrusiveness, it may be said, is not the
least among his o,any commendable quail
| tiles; the fact that ne is not seeker after
| office but rather the Office seeks him. is, in
| the opinion Of the writer, a high commend
alton. That Mr.. Harrison has at heart the
interests of the community he represents
will be readily seen by the
following answer to question
asked by the writer. In conversation lately
held with Mr.. H.: II came to Chicago"
| said Mr.. Harrison, at time when We were
limited, comparatively speaking, in all but
natural resources, but Of them we had an
unlimited supply. saw that the city, and
the State likewise, ought to increase--to
become reat in population and in wealth,
and told my confreres, and the people
that it lay in our power to make the State
rich, populous, powerful, and great field
for the emigrant who came to till our pra-
ries, and for the capitalist who came to ad-
vance our mercantile, commercial, and
railroad interests. I have advocated an
measures of this kind that have risen in my
time. and intend to do it In the future. 1t
is clearly my duty to range myself on the
side of the people, their interests being
what have Oh my mind and in my heart.
| Mr.. Harrison is as yet in the prime Of
iifez-his physical qualities being fully
equal to his mental capacities, and that is
gentleman ever used being the Great Ger.

that great panacsa used by all great men Of
the day. Mr.. Harrison said: "Rheumatism

neighborhood where live the people will
have no other medicine for rheumatism OF

aWhen first found myself suffering
from the rheumatism my slsating
thought naturally was to call physician,
but my neighbors all advised me to try
st. Jacobs Oil, the great German Rem
