Famine and Mortality.

The S. F. Chronicle says: A rec
ord of famine and mortality in our
sister republics was brought to port
yesterday by the arrival e the Paci-
fc mail steamer San Juan. Among
the arrivals was Joseph McMullin, a
newspaper man from New York.
He gave a graphic recital of calam-
tiles which have visited Guatarnaf@-
and the isth,nps.- Tno republic of
ous.Ss-s-..a is besieged by smallpox.
The disease has made fearful pro-
gress recently. In seven weeks
there were 1870 deaths throughout
the country, and the number at
latest accounts was on the increase.
But few sanitary precautions were
taken when tie epidemic first ap-
peared. The result was that people
have been moved down by hundreds.
In the city of auatemala dozens of
deaths have occurred daily. The
hospitals are crowded End there is
an open tieldfor a score or more of
physicians.
The isthms has been visited by
an ice famins. 1t appears from MIR.
McMullin's statements that for
several yearspast a company, with
headquarters in Maine, had been
supplying 10 along the isthmus and
enjoyed q Irritable monopoly in the
traffic. A 8n CO.. any was subse-

occurred il the hottest portion of
the year ali has entaiIed serious re-
suits, as ices an absolute necessity
in those torid climates. at Corinto
the price o ice advanced to $40 a
ton, and esn at that figure there
was little tbe had.

No one doubts that DR..
Sage's Catarrh Remedy really
cures Catarrh, whether the
disease be recent or of long
standing, because the makers
of it clinch their faith in it
with a $500 guarantee, which
isn't mere newspaper guar
antee, but son call" in a
moment.
That moment is when you
prove that its makers can't
cure you.
The reason for their faith
is this:
DR.. Sage's remedy has
proved itself the right cure
for ninety nine out of one
hundred cases of Catarrh in
the Head, and. the worlds
Dispensary Medical Associa-
ton can afford to take the
risk of your being the one
hundredth.
The only question is-are
you willing to make the test,
if the makers are willing to
take the risk?
If SO, the rest is easy. You
pay your druggist SO cents
and the trial begins.
If you're wanting the $500
you'll get something better
a cure !

IN The BUCKEYE STATE.

A Memorable Campaign on National Is
sues-Poinis of the Contest
CoLUMBUs, Nov. 3.-One-eighth of the
population of Ohio is assembled about the
six or seven hills of Cincinnati A large
plurality in That city, either way, will
probably settle the contest Two years
ago Campbell carried Hamilton county
by 1900. From the headquarters of the
Democratic committee the claim has been
made that Governor Campbell will re-
csive plurality of 10000 votes. This is
based on the assertion that the opposition
to him in Hamilton county, which was so
pronounced in the beginning Of the CAM
paign, has largely melted away, until
now it is claimed he will carry Hamilton
10y 1000 majority. On the other hand the
chairman o: the Republican committee
claims a plurality of 10000. This esti-
mate makes Mckinley carry Hamilton
county by $500 AS to the legislature the
claims Of the two leading parties are
about in the same proportion.

Whatever may be the result at the polls,
this campaign will go into history as the
most amicabl. as well as one of the most
earnest and enthusiastic political contests
ever known in Ohio. 1t has been con-

free from that indulgence in personal
abuse which has marked SO many previ-

Gus contests Yet there has been no lack
Of aggressiveness. The campaign has
been fought on national issues almost
exclusively. Silver and the tariff have
been the themes discussed on the stump
and in the public press, but state issues
have not been neglected.
Asst to Elections In Past Years.
In the past thirty years Ohio has gone
Democratic seven times The Rep lblic
ans have not failed to carry the state at
every presidential election during this
period. In 1889 Governor Campbell re.
ceived 10, S12 plurality. Last year the Re-
publicaus carried the state by 10000, when
there were a. 1856 votes polled. IL is be-
lieved that $50, 600 votes will be cast this
year. Political mathematicians of all per-
ST asions extract comfort from these fig
ures. The Australian blanket ballot will
be used for the first time this year, and
there ave so many tickets in the field that
politicians are perplexsd in the effort to
estimate its effect on the result.
The United States Senatorship.
The prize of United States sena-
torship is involved in this election, and
should the Republicans be victorious
very interesting fight will be inaugurated
in The legislature between Sherman and
Foraker. Sherman is very strong in the
party and Foraker has large and infiu-
entail following. As to the relative
strength of the two men little can be
known definitely until the legislature is
chosen. In the event of the Peoples
parry having the balance of power in the
legislature. it is alleged that they will
vote for Foraker. Anything to beat
Sherman" is their cry. Sherman and
Foraker have been active on the stump
for Mckinley. Secretary Foster has also
contributed his quota of speeches.

Very Hot Cam paign.
The Democratic victory oftwo years ago
first sounded and then aroused of the Re-
publicaps. They entered this contest de-
termined to regain their lost ground, and
the Democrats were no less determined to
retain their own ascendency. The result
has been campaign of unprecedented
industry and activity. Iowa fairly siZzled
with excitement. The battle has been
fought on the tariff and prohibition is
sues. the latter having received by far the
most attention. the Democrats favoring
the repeal Of the prohibition law, and the
substitution of a strong license enact
ment.
The GroundswelI OF 1889.
In 1855 Governor Boies was elected by q
plurality of $500. In round numbers he
received 10000 votes. His vote was sub
stantially the same as that receceived by
Cleveland in 1888, while the Republican
vote was less than that cast for Harrison.
1t is an interesting question what is TO
become o. these votes this year. There
has been n spirited contest for control Of

Principal Issues Debated.
The acme of excitement was reached at
the Lodge Russell joint debates, which
elevated the zone of the canvass if they
did not affect the result. The tariff and
silver questions have been the themes on
every platform. Both parties declare for
sound money, but the Democrats have
vigorously assailed the Republican silver
legislation of the last congress. The tidal
wave Of last year carried Governor Rus
sell iato the executive Office with plu-
rality Of 1000 The remainder Of the
Democratic ticket was defeated by from
4, 90 to s,20o. A legislature will also be
elected. The Republicans had a majority
of forty-one in the last house while the
senate was a tie.
