Constitutional Catarrh

No single disease has entailed more suffer-
ing or fastened the breaking up of the cOnsti-
tuition than Catarrh. The sense of smell, of
taste, of sight, of hearing, the human voice,
the mind-one or more, and sometimes ALL
yield to its destructive influence. The poison
it distributes throughout the system attacks
every vital force, and breaks up the most rO-
bust of constitutions. Ignored, because but
little understood, by most physicians, impO-
tently assailed by Quacks and charlatans
those suffering from it have little hope to be
relieved of it this side of the grave. 1t is time
then, that the popular treatment of this terri
bic disease by remedies within the reach of all
passed into hands at once competent and
trustworthy. The new and hitherto untried
method adopted by DIR. Sanford in the pre-
paration of his RAD CAL CURE has won the
hearty approval of thousands. 1t is instanta-
neous in affOrding relief in all head colds,
sneezing, snuff1ing and INSTRUCTED breathing,
and rapidly removes the most oppressive
symptoms, clearing the head, sweetening the
breath, restoring the senses of smell, taste and
hearing, and neutraliZing the constitutional
tendency of the disease towards the lungs
liver and kidneys.
SANFORD'S RADICAL CURE consists of one

1t would be an interesting statement,
if some one could furnish it, of the eX-
act amount of money that was spent
on the Republican primaries last even
ing. In contest of bank against bank
the money must fly. And yet, with all
the glazing corruption attending Repub-

The news from Jacksonville that vel
low fever. is on the increase is all the
more alarming because of the indica-
tions that we are now in for long
spell of hot weather. We congratulate
ourselves that we are on the safe side
of the yellow fever belt, and yet if the
thermometer keeps up in the nineties
a considerable length of time there is
no reason why we may not be included
in Yellow Jacks dominionS. Physi-
clans agree that yellow fever is more of
crime than disease, in that il never
exists except from criminal neglect
of sanitary laws. If this be true.
and there is no cause to doubt
it, we should certainly realize
the Importance of Immediately for
tifying against an invasion of the jaun-
dice-tinted monster by having perfect
sanitation. While we have no special
reason to dread yellow fever in this To-
cality, stin it is possible for it to make
its appearance. And we know that this
is the season when feyerS of the typhus
type are to be most feared. Hence the
argument in favor ofperfect sanitation
holds good whether there is danger of
Yellow Jack putting in an appearance or
not.

Personal objections cannot be urged
against Mr.. MATHEWS. but as l learn
of him he lacks the essential qualities
of leadership, and those powers that en-
able great men to fuse together all the
ranging elements of their party.
Gen. ALLEN, from the first. had
no show for the nomination. HIS is
not popular with his party at large, and
never will be, owing to certain frig-
idity in his nature that repels the class
of men who manipulate politics. Then,
too, the general is too rabid in his Re-
publicaniSm, if | may so express it, and
that in the free and Independent West
is not acceptable. We don't draw the
party lines here as they do East.
CLIFFORD made an acceptable working
delegate, but his influence at Washing
ton has never been great, and on the
questions of division and admission l
think he has done harm. He is not a
tactician nor strategist, and such a
man is needed in Washington to benefit
the territory at all.
The Democracy of the territory, if
united, has a chance to carry it-small
as it is-and not an opportunity should
be lost that will enable them to do so.
They have clean, honorable nominee
and a tirSt-class campaign platform.
The issue is the tariff, and on it they
