should attack the disease In the blood, not
in your nose. Remove the impure cause,

take Hoods Sarsaparila, the great blood
purifier, which radically and permanently
cures catarrh; it also strengthens the nerves.
BE sure to get only Hoods Sarsaparilla.

HUMORs or THE CENSUS.

The tenth census has degcnerated into
a roaring farce. Among It's many hui
morous features. however, none are
more striking than the bitter rivalry
which has developed between the
Twin cities" ST. Paul and Minneapo-
lis. Both have been Straining every
nerve to show the greater increase In
population, and the brilliant and orig
inal methods they have employed are
enough To make the ST. Louis Republi-
can politicians who voted dead men
and infants. hide their diminished heads
Ia shame.
Two days before the enumeration
closed in Minneapolis, a fear began to
be felt that their rivals in the Apostolic
city would surpass them. Committees
were organized. and began securing the
city for residents who had not been
enumerated Business men gave their
whole time and fair beauties loaned
their carriages TO aid the patriotic en-
terprlse. The columns OF the press
were filed with frantic appeals to every
body 10 come forward and be enumer-
ated. An endless line OF people filed I'm
and out OF the supervisors Office, and
every name was taken that was offered.
While this great struggle was going
on st. Paul was in an agony Of distress.
The enumeration had closed and they
couldn't 90 behind the returns. But
ike HoRArIUs, who defended the
bridge. hero arose in this awful
emergency. lie was an humble Dep
uty United States Marshal by the
name OF TAGGART, but his genius
flashed forth like twenty-horSe
power electric light. The 81. Paul
champion moved his forces on Minneap-
oils, and by the exercise OF marvellous
strategy captured the census reports
aud bore them back in triumph. The
6nal stroke OF the victorious Apostles
was delivered in the arrest OF seven
Minneapolis euumerators for padding
their list.
Another interesting feature Of this
peculiar contest is shown in the
columns Of the local press. The Min
ueapolis Tribune in a scathing editorial;
criticises the efficiency OF the census
work, and hints at a dark and bloody
conspiracy TO appoint able and active
ia IT. Paul, while men in
capable Of enumeratlng railroad ties
were appointed IN Minneapolis.
Tho st. Paul Globe OF the SaHe date
declares that the census Ia that city
lacked thousands OF names, and intI-
mated that the lists In Minneapolis had
been padded by wholesale. Thus the
cruel war continues. There is work for
a National Peace Conference IN the
"thc twin cities" but it is doubtful If
such an important issue can be settled
without blood.

NEW SYSTEM OF RErEArINo.

The enormities which the Federal
Election bin proposes TO inHict upon the
people of the south grow blacSer the
closer the conspiracy is inspected.
Section nine Of the bill provides that
where ballots for members Of Congress
are found in the wrong ballot box, they
shall Dee counted as IL they had been
east in the proper manner. The provi-
sion is nothing less than cloak Tor a
cumulative system Of voting hitherto
unknown To American laws.
The avowed purpose OF the Federal
election bin is to control the choice OF
Congressman, and section nine conSti-
tutes the highest tribute to the genius
of its contrivers. II this measure be-
comes a law. a new weapon surprising

this way they will secure as many votes
Tor congressman as there are candi-

system Of repeating.
The Federal election bill is a remark

It's creation Of an army Of 100000 Office

salaries. it's despotic disposal OF power
in the hands Of the Supervisors, ana
