How ,: e ss" CURED

By taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, which, by the remarkable cures it has accomplished, often when other medicines have failed, has proven itself to be a potent and peculiar medicine for this disease. Some Of these cures are really wonderful. If you suffer from scrofula, be sure to try Hoods Sarsaparilla.
 "My daughter Mary was afflicted with scrof- ulous sore neck from the time shewas 22months old till she became six years of age. Lumps formed in her neck, and one of them after growing to the size of a pigeons egg, became a running sore for over three years.s We gave her Hoods SarsaparfIla, when the lump and all indications of scrofula entirely dis appeared, and now she seems to be healthy chiId.s J. s.

plain. Mr.. Cleaves certainly went into this
campaign expecting to be scrutinized. He
did not expect the Republican party to take
him without question on the valuation put
upon him by hisfriends. But Mr.. Burleigh's
friends appear to have thought that when
they had made up their minds that he was
the proper candidate for the Republicans to
nominate that was. going to settle it. They
apparently conceived that nobody else had
the right to say anything about t. They
looked upon their endorsement as a sort OF
imperial ukase which it was treason for any
body to question. They have found out
their mistake. and that's why :they are UNI
happy.

Concerning Fairness.

Another wall comes from the Bangor
Wing concerning the unfairness of the
PRESS. This time the PRESS is rebuked for
not publishing letter from ex-State Treas
urer Helbrook saying that in his opinion no
serious complications would result from the
election of Mr.. Burleigh to the governorship.
Inasmuch as none Of Mr.. Burleigh's organs
have ever fairly presented the treasuryship
matter, inasmuch as none of them
has published the letter of the Hon.
]. W. Wakefield, the letter of the
Hon. E. II. Banks, the letter of the
Hon. William Rogers, and only one OF them
the letter of the Hon. ]. w. Fairbanks 1t
smacks q good deal of presumption for them
to complain Of the failure Of the PRESS to
publish Mr.. Holbrook's letter. Mr.. Burleigh
has plenty of newspaper spokesman; he suf-
fers no injustice if the PRESS refuses to be-
come one Of them. Had the Wing been seek
ing after the fairness which it processes it
would have published along with Mr.. Hol-
brooks the letter Of the Hon. K. FL. Banks.
Before it complains Of unfairness it should
set the example of fairness.
Now to the general charge of unfairness Of
the supporters of Mr.. Cleaves in this cam
paignswe have to say that it is unfounded
The criticisms of Mr.. Burleigh's candidacy
have been open and above board. They
have been publicly made so that his support
ers could see just what they were and
meet them If they could. Their character
has been, too, legitimate. They have not
proceeded by inuendo or insinuation as
did Mr.. Burleigh's organ the Pennington
Chronicle in the anonymous letter which it
published concerning Mr.. Clsaves, or as
did Mr.. Burleigh's organ the Wateryille
Sentinel when it alleged that Mr.. Cleaves
was the candidate of the politicians, while
Mr.. Burleigh was the candidate of the peo-
pie, or as did the recent letter from Au-
gusta to the Boston Globe, when it
asserted that Gov. Marbles friends
were going to bolt if Mr.. Bur-
leigh was nominated, and that Mr..
Cleaves was in league with them. Their
criticisms have been direct and specific.
They have called public attention to certain
serious complications which might arise
should Mr.. Burleigh be elected Governor,
by reason Of his connection with the Treas
ury and by reason Of his son's.connection
with the Kennebec Journal, which does the
printing for the State, and they have point
ed out that his nomination would set bad
precedent which the Republican party
might in the future have reason to regret
These were perfectly legitimate subjects for
public discussion, and had the Republican
press OF the State shut its eyes to them it
would have been guilty Of culpable neglect.
II MI. Purleighs organs know of any seri-
GUS objections to the candidacy of Mr..
Cleayes or Gov. Marble it is their duty to
state them. If they are stated directly and
plainly so that they can be met we believe
that neither of these gentlemen viii COM

District Attorney Fellows's bad luck still
pursues him. Since he became district at
torney the case against Squire and Flynn,
two conspicuous public rascals, has fallen to
the ground by reason Of bad management
and now the prosecution Of Kerr, one of the
Doodle aldermen, has failed by reason of dis
agreement Of the jury. Fellows may not be
to blame, but it is exceedingly unfortunate
for him that the predictions of failure under
his management made before his election
should come true so frequently.

THE history Of the English game OF
cricket, which covers a period OF
nearly three hundred years, discloses
the fact that the batsman has an adj
vantage over the fellow who delivers
the ball. Time and again changes
have been made in widening the
wickets and raising their height in
order to give the bowler more chance
at them, and to keep down the
length of the score and oil
the time consumed in playing a
game. But such efforts were futile,
and therefore the bowler has been
frequently granted wider privileges in
the manner Of delivering the ball.
At first he had to pitch it with his
hand hanging parallel with his side
then the "round-arm" style was de-
clared permissible, in which he might
swing his arm out at right angles te
the body, but with the hand below the
shoulder. Still the batsman "swiped'
the balls all over the field, and il
sometimes required whole day t.
"put out" a skillful batter. So thu
"overhand" method of bowling came
| in vogue, in which the hand is swung
up over the head. In all these stylel
the use Of the wrist, as in throwing
that ia sharp, short jerk as the mis-
sile leaves the hand--was prohibited
now even this advantage is accorded
the man at the "battery." The sam
course OF experience is being met il
the American game OF base ball. Th
pitcher in this game stands near Tia
batsman; he is restrained hardly a
| all in the manner of delivery; yet b
the quickness of eye and hand whic
guide and WELD the small bit of roun
wood which forms the batsman
weapon, games are becoming of longe
duration. Yesterday contests wer
reported between the great clubs c
Detroit and Pittsburg, in which th
score stood eighteen to thirteen. An
other game took place between Oh
cago and indianapolis, in which tn
record was seven to three. 1t used t
be considered bad playing if eithe
club made over two or three runs.
