"a WAGON LOAD" of young ladies and
gentlemen from St. Clairsville passed
through town a few days since, on their
way north to gather chestnuts. The
party seemed to be pleasant one, and
the day was fine, but we infer that they
had no chestuuts to sell after their re-
turn home. We have tried to gather
chestnuts.

To PHYSICIANS.

We do not find fault, reproach or con-
demn the practice of any regular Physl-
cian-this is not our mission-but we do
claim that if he were to add PKRUNA to
his prescriptions, as directed in our book
on the " Ills of Life" land furnished graf
uitously by all druggists, he would cure
all his patients.
Mr.. Henry C. Reynolds, Ironton, Law
renee County, Ohio, writes: My wife
has been sorely distressed for many years.
Her disease or diseases and the symptoms
of them have been so varied that an at
tempt to describe them would be more

paid over thousand (I,ooo) dollars for
doctors and medicines for her, without any
satisfactory results. We read so much
about your PERUNA that l was forced to
try it. She has now taken five bottles;
they have done her more good than all
the doctors and medicine that she has ev-
er made use Of PERUNA is certainly
God-send to humanity"

A. w. Blackburn, Wooster, O., writes:
"Several weeks ago a man came to me,
all broken down, terribly nervous, stom-
ach without any power to digest food.
Had tried four doctors; none did him any
good. Asked me to do something for
him. I recommended MANALIN. He

influence of a powerful an8sthetic,
which instead of causing him to talk
had the effect of making him toot and

THE INJUNCTION CONTINUED,
And the Cincinnati Election Case Goes
to the Circuit Court.

CINCINNATI, Oct 26-Judge Buch-
walters little court room was crowded
to its utmost capacity, this morning, by
attorneys, candidates and citizens inter
ested in the result of The legal proceed
ings before bim in connection with the
delivery of certificates of election to the
four candidates for Senator from Ham
ilton county. The matter had been ar
gued and submitted to him on demurt
rer and on motion to dissolve re-
strining order heretofore issued by him
in favor of the four Republican candi-
dates on their petition.
He rendered his decision at consider
able length, holding as to the demurrer
First, there was no misjoinder of par
tieS-that the four candidates could sue
together or separately second, the court
had jurisdiction, not to declare who
should hold Office, for that was clearly
the province of the Legislature upon d
contest, but to declare who was entitled
to certificate, for that was a personal
right separate from the title to the Of
flee. He also held that it was not neces-
sary, in order to obtain the aid of the
Court to prevent irreparable injury to do
more than make out prima facis case,
while in this case the averments OF
facts in the petition were insufficient,
vet the plaintiffs were entitled to amend

any case they were entitled to an order
to stay the hand of Il Q Clerk, until the

The injunction was therefore contin
ued in force, and the mandamus case
involving the same points was taken up
by the Circuit Court.

THERE is likely to be a coldness be-
tween Cleveland and Hendricks here
after. An old lady from Indianapolis
attended the Presidents tri-weekly re-
ception Friday. She told Grover that
she was Democrat. and that he was
better looking than his pictures. The
President told her that Indiana people
did not always tell the truth. and polite
ly showed her to the door. Mr.. Hen
dricks has some reasons to interpret this
allusion as personal, and will resent il
accordingly.

MANY citizens of Ohio seem really
shocked by the discovery of forgery in
making out election returns at Colum-
bus. This forgery was a very simple
matter-the change of figure to 81
where it made difference in faver of
the Democratic ticket of three hundred
and was not sufficient in itself to have
materially changed the Legislature of
Ohio. This forgery, compared with the
frauds in Hamilton county, is a very
small and inoffensive affair.
Take Precinct A, Fourth Ward-regis-
tratiOn 72O voters-96 more than the en-
tire Presidential vote of 1884, and the
vote was 996, or 276 more than the reg
istration, and 372 more than were cast
at the Presidential election! Mr.. Dalton
has not moments hesitation in count
ing this prima facie fraud. Perhaps the
reason is, he comes to us from the Sixth
Ward, where the fraudulent Democratic
vote has been constantly increasing for
years, and last spring. in the desperate
work done by the Gang to defeat Amor
Smith, ran up to a thousand. We mean
to assert that the census tables and the
election returns taken together prove
that there was a solid Democratic fraud
ulent vote counted of at least a thousand
in Mr.. Dalton's celebrated ward last
spring.
RnIE n in Al nnlk
would naturally be slow to astOnishment,
but we should think these figures would
have bothered even his hardihood. We
repeat the analysis made yesterday of
the precinct under consideration:
The vote for Blaine was. .17S
The vote for Cleveland was. $3.50. .442
For Butler aud st. John was..... 4
Now take the October vote:
HOadly's vote was. 926
ForakerS vote was S............. 4S
LeOnard's vote was. ..... -. p
Total ...s.....-...-. 996
That is to say, Hoadly is credited with
1874 more votes than were cast for Mr..
Cleveland, and Foraker received 1870
fewer votes than were cast for Blainel
Here is in one pre- cinct the most shock
ing grossness of fraud. 1t is mathemat>
ically demonstrated; and this fraud in
one precinct, if rectified according to
obvious common sense and such honesty
as refuses the usufruct of forgery at
Columbus, would elect thirteen Republi-
can instead of Democratic members of
the Legislature, give US the majority in
the Senate of Ohio, and enable US to tear
from the blood vessels of this communi-
ty the suckers of the Gang. The Demo
cratic candidates, according to the fraud
ulent face of the returns, are elected by
pluralities ranging from 81 to 45S-ten
of the fourteen having pluralities less
than 200.
Mark the word "plnralities," and that
the usual idiots fooled away their votes
as ever, for an alleged temperance tick>
ct. But note the fact that there is no
Democratic candidate for the Legislature
who has plurality equal to the demon
strated Democratic fraud in this one pre-
cinct of the Fourth Ward. What is a
mere marter of forgery affecting but one
