They "Mean Business"

If anyone has ever given DR.. Sage's Ca
tarrh Remedy fair trial and has not been
cured thereby, the manufacturers of that
unfailing remedy would like to hear from
that individual, for when they offer, as
they do, in good faith, $500 reward for a
case of nasal catarrh which they cannot
cure, they mean just exactly what they
say. They are financially responsible,
and abundantly able, to make good their
guarantee if they fail, as anyone can learn
by making proper inquiry. Remedy sold
by all druggists, at 80 cents.

When President Harrison turned the
patronage of California over to the Repub-
lican delegation he threw down bone
which has so far been productive of little
else than continuous snarling. Senator
Stanford invited his colleagues to meet at
his California-street mansion on Monday
and discuss the apportionment of offices
over tempting luncheon. The only
point upon which the Congressman agreed
was the ability of the senior Senator's
cook. The dainties upon the table were
well cared for, but the offices suffered. A
great matter of contention was the Sacra-
mento revenue district. De Haven in
sisted upon the appointment of J. X.
Klein OF Ukiah, and McKenna would
listen to no one but Hallcomb of Yolo. No
conclusion was reached, and the party dis
persed without having accomplished any
thing of note.

The most important local election
probably ever held in Chicago, says q
dispatch of the 18th, took place to-day.
1t was to decide the control of newly
created board of nine waterway COM
mlssloners. the members of which are
to have the raising and disbursement
OF funds estimated at S3u,00O,G00 and
the employment for an indefinite
period of about $4,000 men. Cumu-
lat1ve voting was permitted, and the
Democratic and Republican conven-
lions each nominated but five men, the
AIM being to secure q majority OF the
board Of nine. A Citizens or Indepen-
dent ticket was also placed in the con-
test with six names, three of which
We're those of former Democrats and
three former Republicans. 81
Al 1880 p. NJ. returns from about hall
the precincts indicated the ectlon OF
the SIX independents, and that the
three remaining places would fall to the
Democrats. On this basis the board
which promises to play an important
part in Illinois politics, will stand three
straight Democrats, three Independent
democrats and three Independent Re-
puDllcans. Judge Richard Prendergast,
independent Democrat, 80 far heard
from, leads the list of successful candi-
dates, and was freely talked OF as the
probable chairman ofthe board.
The result indie ted was not changed
when all returns, except from few un-
important precincts, had been received.
Ihe Citizens ticket leads the Democrats
by an average of $500 votes, and the
Democrats averaged 5000 over the Re-
publicans. One of the candidates on
the Citizens ticket was Altpeter, the
only Socialist in the field. He is
counted politically as one of the Inde-
pendent Democrats.
The returns indicate decided victory
tor the Citizens ticket. AS there were
but six candidates in nomination and
nine places to fill. the highest three on
the regular ticket are chosen The re-
turns indicate that the three regular
party nominees who are elected are
Democrats and are to all appearances
