THE GOVERNOR.

The people of this part of the
State believe that if Governor
Adams was to be candidate for
any position whatever, he would
have to get a Republican to an
nounce his name before the Demo-
cratic Convention.--Eureka Leader.
The papers of the State are, in
our opinion, saying things about
the Governor which are very Sc
we're. The APPEAL feels constrain-
ed to defend his Democratic Excel
lency, just at this time, as he seems
to be down and has no friends.
That man Of so little brains, ed
ucation or natural ability could sue
coed in living of this State as he
has for more than ten years, shows
that he must have something to
him above the common herd.
He may have succeeded by trick
cry, false promises, and smiling at
everybody, but if these things sue
coed it does not so much indicate
that the Governor is unreliable and
no good, as it does that the people
whose backs he has been walking
over for years are a set of cantank
erous fools. When people have
been outwitted by a man they &C
cuse of being a Fancy. they had
better keep as quiet about it as
possible. The election returns
show that Governor Adams is today
a smarter man than the majority
of people in this Slate. We like to
see the so called intelligent Demo-
Gratis chawing the bitter cud that
Adams is in their mouths, and yet
they do not seem to know how to
spit him out.

THE ELECTION FRAUD AT
CHICAGO.

The trial of Joseph G. Mackin,
William J. Gallagher, Arthur
Gleason and Henry Biehl on the
charge of conspiracy to affect the
result Of the election for Congress
man in the Fourth Illinois Dis
trict at the Presidential election
last November, was concluded Sat
urday. and resulted in the convic-
ton at 5:35 in the evening, Of
Mackin, Gallagher and Gleason,
and the acquittal Of Biehl. The
greatest excitement prevailed in
the Courtroom when the verdict
was announced. The attorneys
for defendants at once moved for a
new trial. When the count was
completed the evening of the cleo
ton the record showed that Leman
had 420 votes and Brand ga,
which, with other returns from
the district, gave Lewan a small
majority. When the canvassing
board reached the precinct the re-
turns showed that Leman had re-
ccceived only 22O votes, while
Brand had 474 votes, which gave
Brands minority in the district,
The returns gave evidence Of hav-
ing been tempered with, but the
canvassing board decided that
it could not go behind the returns,
and accordingly certified the re-
suit to the State canyassing board,
which reversed the decision and
gave certificate of election to
Leman. The Federal Grand Jury
agreeing with the views of the
canyassias board, indicted the
election officers, and it appears
that the jury before whom the
case was tried, became convinced
that false ballots had been substi-
tuted for the genuine while the
box was in custody Of the clerk
awaiting the official canvass.
Mackin and Gallagher are Dem
ocratic politicians, and Gleason is
a Republican of similar genus.
The fraud excited great indigna-
ton in Chicago, and a committee
of leading citizens was formed,
comprising prominent men of both
the Democratic and Republican
parties, and fund Of $4,000 was
raised to push the prosecution to
successful issue.

Cure for Piles,

Piles are frequently preceded by q
sense Of weight in the back, loins and
over part of the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some affection
of the kidneys or neighboring organs.
At times, symptoms of indigestion are
present, as hatulency, uneasiness of the
stomach, etc. A moisture, like perspira-
tion, producing very dlsagreeable itch
ing, after getting warm, is common
attendant. Blind, bleeding and itching
piles yeild at once to the application Of
DIR. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which acts
directly upon the parts affected, absorb
ing the tumors, allaying the intense
itching, and affecting permanent cure.
