Chronic Chronic n&icCatarrh
CAN BE CURED.
An Open Letter.
Dr.. George W. Fischer,

Dr.. George W. Fischer,
6l7 14th ST., N. w.
Dear Sir:-
"Ihave used two and one-half bottles
of your CATARRH CURE on my daughter
who has suffered for four years from Ca
tarrh. Her continual snuffing and
hawking was pitiful. The third day after
using your cure her complexion began
to clear and she was brighter. In con-
junction her hearing and voice was i'm
paired-that Is now entirely 0bliterated.
l have tested this medicine thoroughly,
and am convinced that it will alleviate
and cure suffering humanity from this
most disgusting and terrible disease.
The manner in which it clears the nasal
passages will convince the most skeptical
as to Its merits"
Yours, ctc.,

TIE KIND OF MAYOR TO ELECT.

From the Scranton Truth.
The man who ia chosen mayor of this
energetic city of magnificent possibilities
and splendid opportunities should be no
mere amateur I'm public affairs. lie should
be every inch a man in his mal;e-up. In
his integrity and in municipal experience.
The city of Scranton has now reached a
point in its history when 1t is of the high
est Importance to its people that It shah
be governed with wisdom and vita a
broadminded view directed lovarl lis
future welfare. 1t is no disparaGement OF
any one else TO say that we know of no
man seeking for the Office Of mayor, or for
any other Office in this town who Nils The
bill better in every respec; than Colonel
Ezra II. Ripple. He un le Stands the
citys needs and how to advance it's in
terests, and he is no lasgarl when hard
work is to be done for any deserving
cause. Not only this bat Colonel Rippla
stands high in the estimation CT the co.
pie at home and al distance. His rane
Is synonymous with solveacy as veil a.
with ability. and he is in all respects
progressive citizen of the highest tyre.
The Truth cares not what party pre-.
sents such man for Its approval it viii
feel in duty bound to advocate his c!cc-
tion in the interest OF the city
We take no stock in the small-bser clam
or that has been raised about the iie-
publican primaries. 1t is well UNDER
stood that this phase OF the ilssht is bu,
an ingenious political diversion for the
purpose of preventing. If possible. the
election of Colonel Ripple. There Ia room
for improvement at the primaries sll
around, as there is in other features OF
our political machinery. and the candi-
dacX of Colonel Ripple nee,ls no defence
In that direction. The next few years will
be years of great Importance for the city
Of Scranton, and 1t is. therefore, most es-
sential that the people Of This place ela2t

pies eminent qualifications for the Of
flee.

Can Elect the Whole Ticket.

Colonel Ripple's election by gener-
Gus margin is conceded even by DEM
ocrats, The nature or the attack upon
him has caused q reaction among the
people. His campaign. as near as can
he known In politics, Is substantially
SAFE His friends will. of course, fight
until the polls close just as If the result
were in question, but there Is no pres
snt reason to doubt that he will be VIC
,orious, and there is also no reason
why the public should not know 1t.
We believe that the same can with
equal truthfulness be said Of the re-
mainder Of the ticket: but 1t Is upon 1t
that the hardest fighting will fall. ana
therefore 1t Is in It's behalf especially
that loyal Republicans should redouble
their energies. To be elected to the
mayoralty without the seating Of ster-
ling Daniel Williams in the treasurer's
Office, and without the experienced and
trustworthy Widmayer retained as city
controller, would be a scant victory Tor
Colonel Ripple. The city treasurer and
the city COutIollci hiC' "ith sNS >'ss
solicitor, the mayors cabinet. What
satisfaction could Mayor Ripple have
II his cabinet were one-half opposed
to him. politically?
1t has, of course, been maliciously
circulated that Colonel Ripple has
worked in this fight for himself alone.
Such charges occur in every campaign.
The present one is utterly false. COL
onel Ripple has fought harder for his
colleagues than for himself. and has
asked his friends to do the same. Even
now, II It were a choice between their
victory and his defeat, he would cheer
fully choose the latter. But with proper
energy among Republicans. every cam
didate on the Republican ticket can be
elected overwhelmingly on Tuesday
next: and II is to this end that effort
should be directed.

Judge Hands Letter.

Careful attention is invited to the
open letter from the pen of ex-Judge
Alfred Hand, on the opposite page. 1t
Is not political document. bristling
with misrepresentation. innuendos or
Indictments to prejudice or passion: 1t
is a calm, judicial statement of facts
bearing upon the present canvass only
so far as factional malevolence and in
dividual malice have sought to poison
the public mind against one of the
city's honorable and public-splrlted
citizens.
The policy of those who desire DEM
ocratic success next Tuesday covers
two and only two lines of attack-one,
the raising of a false hubbub over al
legged Republican primary frauds, the
disproved: and the other. the bespat-
tering with filth of the name of j gem
tleman. who. although not candidate
for office, has been made the target for
every defamer of reputable manhood.
every envier of deserved success and
every petty caviler at indisputable emf
nence and demonstrated personal worth
In the whole list. To the latter classif-
cation @elongs the onslaught upon
"Connellism," as II for William Con-
nell to be Il leader In channels which
his enterprise. his liberality and his
unfailing sagacity as business man
and as citizen have enriched not only
for himself but for this entire commune
ity, were in some sense q high crime and
misdemeanor deserving of incont!nent
abuse.
As friend and as q citizen. Judge
Hand gives reasons why this reckless
policy should not be permitted to pre-
vail. 1t Is not that Mr.. Connell indi-
vidually would suffer through such
abuse--his position in the community.
his standing among discerning men.
even his power for good in politics are
beyond serious curtailment by the adj
verse result of single local election.
1t is that the unrebuked loosening of
malicious tongues upon such man as
he may deal blow both to the welfare
Of the city at home and to its credit
and good name abroad. 1t is the city
which suffers when men Of liberal ten
dencies are bounded for their gener-
osity and when the reward of public
spirit Is public vilifcation and calumny.
The trouble with Scranton Is not
"Connellism" but the lack Of more men
like william Connell to use their for
tunes as public resource held in trust
for the public benefit.

DESERVED THANKS,
the Editor of the Truth.

To the Editor of the Truth.
Dear Sir:--Allow me 10 thank vol, .nd
your paper for your manly deferse cf
Colonel T.. II. Ripple. In these days whe n
private reputation and public service seem
to be special objects for attack; when
motives are misconstrued men slandered
and maligned, it is refreshing to see an
independent Journal step out into the
whirl Of politics and defend the FOOD name
of our citizens.
Inthe years that Colonel Ripple has lived
among us we have always found him In
the front rank as a champion Of Chris
tianity, morality and progress, evading
none of the duties Of citlzenship.f lie
has carried every responsibility laid upon
him with credit to himself and hono2 anu
standing to the good name Of our Sity.
