Second. A homestead may also be
taken by the claimant going direct to

The TRIBUNE Of two weeks since
referred to the bravery and gallant
conduct of Gen. Harrison at the mem
orable battle of Peach Tree Creek,
Georgia, July Goth, 1864. His brigade
was attached to the Goth corps, COM
handed by Gen. Hooker" Fighting
Joe'-who, in his official report, re-
ferred to Gen. Harrison as follows:
"My attention was first attracted to
this young officer by the superior ex-
cellence of his brigade in discipline
and instruction, the result Of his
labor, skill and devotion. With more
foresight than have witnessed in any
officer of his experience, he seemed to
act upon the principle that success
depended upon the thorough prepar-
alton in discipline and esprit of his
command for conflict, more than on
any influence that could be exerted on
the field itself, and when collision
came, his command indicated his
wisdom as much as his valor. In all
OF the achievements of the 10th Corps
in that campaign Colonel Harrison
bore a conspicuous part. At Resaea
and Peach Tree Creek, the conduct Of
himself and command was especially
distinguished. Colonel Harrison is
an officer of superior abilities, and of
great professional and personal
worth"

1t is interesting, now that Cleve-
lands nomination at Chicago is an
accomplished fact, to note what lead
ing Der locrats say of the two pivotal
states III this years campaign. These
two utterances were made a day or
two before his nomination.:
"Cleveland can't carry one side of
New York." said Governor Flower.
"Cleyeland will be beaten by 10000
in Indiana" said Ex-Governor Gray.
Which means that Cleveland was
defeated before he was nominated.

cannot afford to make the sacrifice
implied by such candidacy. His
financial inability, his health, his matt
ural repugnance to official place, his
desire to do his chosen work in his
chosen way all protest against his
appearance in the political arena save
in the capacity of a more or less useful
private. These considerations virtu-
ally make it impossible for him to
accept a nomination of any sort if
rendered, and he trusts that this will
silence all discussion and speculation
regarding his political fortunes, that
his name will cease to appear in pub
lie print in connection with matters
political, and that he may be allowed
to repose in that obscurity from which
he was so reluctantly drawn in 1890,

Review of Reviews for July.


The Review of Reviews, always
timely in the subject matter it pre-
sents, is especially so in the July
number. Although the month COW
cred by this issue expired less than
five days after the Republican candi-
date for president was nominated, it
contains perhaps the most complete
and Intelligent character sketch of
Benjamin Harrison that has ever been
written. In the text of the article
appears portrait of President Harri-
son at his desk, taken on the 18th Of
June-four days after the Minneap-
oils convention adjourned.
In addition to this sketch of the
nominee of the Republican convention
there are reviewed and discussed, in
the department "The Progress Of the
World" the work and proceedings of
the convention itself. With this ac-
count are presented portraits of the
most conspicuous figures in that great
political assembly: Gov Mckinley,
Chauncy M. Depew, Senetor Wolcott,
Gen. John G. New, Ex-senator IN
gals, Ex-Speaker Reed and Mrs. j.
Ellen Foster. There IS besides these
striking portrait OF Hon. Whitelaw
Reid, the Republican. nominee for
vice-president IN addition to the
above there are many other Timely and
interesting articles.
The character sketch of Benjamin
Harrison in the July number of the
Review of Reviews is by General
Thomas j. Morgan, a personal and
political friend of the president.
While naturally friendly and appreci-
ative, the article is yet discriminating.
The Review of Reviews is a non-par-
tisan magazine, and publishes this
sketch of the Republican nominee
now on account of its timeliness, for
the same reason that it gave in the
February number character sketch
of Governor Hill, and may be expected
to give in the August number char
acter sketch of Grover Cleveland.

The editor of the Farm, Stock and

such a splendid run as the Alliance
candidate for governor in 1890, posi-
lively refuses to be candidate for
any office Of any politicaf party. In
an editorial in the last issue of his
paper he closes as follows:
1t now only remains to be said that
the managing editor is not candi-

disposed to name him in any conven-
ton for any office he is by these pres
ents forbidden to indulge that dispo-
sition. The editor of this journal

Moorhead News: The Fergus Falls
Journal has much higher idea OF
Mr.. Boen's ability than we have
formed, Judging from his own admis-
sions made in his speech at the con-
vention. He then said he was not
posted on the three principal planks
of the Peoples party platform, namely,
the sub-treasury plan, government
control of railroads and the silver
question, and had never studied them.
These admissions ought to have set
tied the question of his nomination in
the negative. He gave as a reason
why he could not make a speech that
he was worker instead of speech
maker; that he was the busiest man
in Otter Tail county, &c. This was
in exceeding bad taste. 1t would
have sounded well enough from a
friend, but coming from himself was
egotism of the worst form.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition lining of the Eutachian Tube.
When this tube gets inAamed you have
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless this inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarrh which is nothing
but an inlamed condition of mucous sur
faces.
Wewill give one hundred dollars for any
case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that
we cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh

MIR. Cleveland's popularity" in
New York seems to have gotten below
the vanishing point. The Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette thus briefly
shows why:
For governor he carried the state by
nearly $4,000. For president in 1884
he carried it by 1,047 plurality, and
was elected. In 1888 he lost it by
1888, and was defeated, and there is
no telling how big the plurality
against him this year will be.
