The readers Of the ISTHLLlGEScER will
DO pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able TO cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. HALLS Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being con.
stitutioual disease, requires constitu.
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces OF the
system, thereby destroying the founda.
ton OF the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing
it's work. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list Of tes.

Not II Partisan, Question.

Tho Democratic newspapers must be
hard pressed for campaign material
when they charge that the Louisiana
Lottery is "a Republican machine out
and out" Some Louisiana papers have
made the charge in order to obtain the
support OF the dominant party in that
State in their campaign against tho lot
terry company. They know, OF course,
there is not one word OF truth in the
claim, but probably so upon the prin.
ciple that tho end sought for justifes
the means taken to attain it.
The fNct OF the matter is that partisan
politics have hadnothing to do with the
lottery company and its conduct. It
must be frankly admitted that it OBJ.
tanned lis original charter from Re.
i" publican State administration, but is it
not also true that it has continued in
operation under Democratic admins.
trations for years, and that its managers
are Democratic leaders and politicians?
1t was Republican National Admin.

pany or its patrons. This rule estab.
lished by a'Republican Postmaster Gen
eral, has been evaded successfully by a
resort to methods Of communications
through national banks whose letters
cannot be intercepted by tho govern.
ment. However, the postoilice authori.
ties have enforced it SO fur rs they could.
Our Democratic friends cannot point
to single act OF the National Republi.
can party which has either directly or
indirectly encouraged the Louisiana or
any other lottery TINT ever existed in
this country, 1t is, however, a motor.

TIE New York World makes splurge
about its enterprise, but many Of those
who have contributed toward making it
great financial SUCCESS have been tn
gratefully treated. Nelly Bly,, thebright
young lady who made the trip around
the world, which was worth thousands
OF dollars to the World newspaper in the
way oil advertising, complains OF mean
treatment. The only reward she re.
ceived for successfully performing the
feat was three months vacation without
pay. Many less pretentious newspapers
would have shown greater appreciation
OF the value oil the plucky little woman's
services.

Harrison's first year OF republici n
administration. ,Ve believe il will
psss into bistorg as an uneyeniin'
one POLITICALLY, during which 'he
patton quietly passed through an
era of unsoIged social problems.
The unrest aud discomfort oi large
classes IN tle old countries; the
bread riots cf England; the political
dissatisfaction IN large portions Of
Her Majesty's doininioDs; the tidnl
wave OF socialism that y sweeping
the German monarchy almost to
the point OF revolution; thc dislrusl
Of existing entin 'unod1i--
all these are political disturbances
from which our land has been tolcr
ably free. Sti'l, the poison ofspeciai
privileges, which Is slowly unier-
mining the old world nonarchics,
has not alto. .gether been kept out Of
our country. Itis the great problem
with which, IA mnny different
forms, the Harrison administration
IL called upon TO deal. This is the
real difficulty that underlies the
race question, ballot reform, the regu'
lation of corporations and finance,
and the'solutlon of moral problems.
President Harrison has on the
wholc,so far as his messages aud APP
polntments go, applied republican
principles aud fairly mot these
great issues. He ms been
courteous aud conservative In
his public life. His admins
tration has reasonably escaped pub
lie criticism und the atlacks of his
opponents. While he has made 30
efforts 10 display wonderful ability,
startling brllliancy, or to set the
Potomac river on fire, Inc has mpde
u safe, steady-going, aud fhirlS rcii-
able president, such man has
his solid inertia, He may not win
great encomlnms nom the press but
be will leave the party pretlysaiely
entrenchod with the MASSES of
the people. He has NOT prom
ised SO many or 80 great thihgs
as his predecessor, but he has shown
himself n loyal, honorable, upright
christian president.
