Mr.. CAMPBELL says he introduced the
ballot-box bill in Congress at the request
of Republicans, who desired that it
should originate on the Democratic side
of the House. He must be in desper-
ate strait to admit that he acted as a
stoOl-pigeon for corrupt Republicans,
who intended to rob the Government
1t is confession of imbecility or in
competence, which leaves the Democrat
ic candidate for Governor in a fine posi-
tion.

THE best medical writers claim that
the successful remedy for nasal catarrh
must be non-irritating, easy of applica-
tion, and one that will reach all the re-
mote SORES and liberated surfaces. The
history of the efforts to treat catarrh dur
ing the past obliges us to admit that only
one remedy has met these conditions, and
that is Ely's Cream Balm. This pleasant
remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing
else has never done, and both physicians
and patients freely cOncede this fact.
The more distressing symptoms yield to
it. I017-2t

THE real questions at issue in this
campaign is not whether the Democratic
candidate for Governor is party to a
corrupt contract, but whether tally sheet
forgery, ballot box robbery, purchase of
a United States Senatorship and free

should not be diverted by side issues.
Republicans should force the real issues
well to the front.

Governor Foraker said at Amelia:
When my administration commenced we
found great deficiency. We have made
that deficiency good, and we have met every
obligation that has been imposed upon the
state. We have advanced the credit of the
state until it stands higher and better to-day
than ever before in our history. And that
is not ALL We have not only met every
obligation, but we have done it without in
creasing the burdens of taxation. On the
contrary, my fellow-citizens, if we had done
nothing else it would warrant a continue
ton of this policy, simply that we have
done all this, and at the same time have re-
duced the burdens of taxation. [Applause.

205h of next December you will find that
you have to pay on account of state pur-
poses two-tenths of mill less than you have
paid since 1S40 [Applause.1 What does
