a Forersi.7neT Of the Most
Fatai Disease.

Though its Offensive features
are sometimes almost unbearable,
few people'are aware Of the danger
Of which Catarrh is the forerun-
ner. Catarrh invariably leads to
Consumption, Growing worse and
worse each winter, those who rely
upon the usual treatment of
sprays, washes and inhaling mix
lures find that it is impossible to
check the disease with these local
applications which only reach the
surface. The offensive discharge
increases all the while, causing a
feeling of personal defilement, and
gets deeper and deeper until it is
only u question Of a short time
until the lungs are affected.
The Importance of the proper
treatment can therefore be readily
appreciated. But no good what
ever can be expected from local
applications, as such treatment
never did cure Catarrh, and never
will.

A Kansas boy, writing TO the Holton Re-

the rapid Ainericanzing Of the island, from
which it is plain that there is little danger that
annexation will have tic opposite result of
"Malayizing" tile United States. "There is
no more use for 10000 men here now.n saws

the disturbances are raised by our own men.
When we came here, there was only one saloon.

Only Third of the COlOred Regiment Voted.

]. M. Lewis, Governor Lecdy's private sec
rotary, has received a private letter from San
Luis de Cuba in which it is stated that there
were 283 votes cast in the Twenty third Kansas
regiment and of this number Governor Leedy
received 92 and Stanley 1871. Curtis received
200 for congress
The letter also stated that the Republican
central committee sent personal letters to every
one of the soldiers in the regiment, enclosing
ballot all ready for voting, even to having all
the names of the Republican candidates for
county officers written on them Other ballots
were similarly marked, so that if the commit
tee happened to miss anyone there would be a
ballot already marked for him.
1t is thought that there should be more than
ESQ votes in the regiment, as there are more
than 500 soldiers in the two batallions of
the regiment, but it is said that the Lcedy vot-
ers were intimidatsd from vstng by the Off
GERS.

HERE'S ''scale" head that appeared ia
Tuesdays Topeka State Journal. It's rich:
"Awful-funny. Governor Stanley almost
mobbed by Office seekers Chased into the in
ner recesses of his house. When he takes a
carriage ride to an evening party, is followed
there. Loaded to the guards are all trains bound
for Wichita. Thousands pouring into the city,
bowling for Office. Riot is fearnd among the
hungry, sheterless throngs i'll the streets. Ten
thousand men who want peor blood" Fol-
lowing this head is dispatch to the Kansas
City Journal givisg full account of the rush
to the pie counter. 1t sort o. looks as though
the Pops are not the only ofice-hungry fellows
IN Kansas. In fact, the Pops amt ia it with

Losses BY Fire.

Losses by fire in tho United States and
Canada during tho month of April arc
computed at upward of eight million
dollars, as against nearly eleven millions
in tho corresponding month of last year
and twelve millions in April two years
ago In the United States alOno tho
losses by fire in tho past twcnty-thrco
years are equal to ono tenth of tho entire
present assessed valuation Of thy pro-
porty, real and personal, of all the States
and Territories. Moro than half tho
property destroyed is covered by insur-
ancc. This, however, only means that
tho losses Of that cxtont arc distributed
among others than tho owners and docs
not affect the fact that this enormous
volume of tho products of human labor
burned up cvory year is n total loss to
tho country. 1t is surprising that
human ingenuity has not yot devised
adequate means to avert this destruction
of wealth.

was destroyed to build splendid sys-
tenn of water works and put in electric
lights for tho town. Here is complete
loss to our community of somo 10000.

WantCd-CICan Politics.

Tho campaign of tho State, by tho
candidates for State Offices and mombors
of Congress, opened at Orangcburg last
Thursday, tho 10th instant, and if we
may judge from tho beginning, it will
be campaign of personal wranglc be-
'~6Wecn the various candidates. 1t is un-
fortunate that ints4ligont mon, mon who
ought to possess tho refined feelings of
gontlomon, should descend to tho me-
thods OF dcmagoguo in tho campaign.
Tho people arc always glad to listen to
argument from candidates on the issues
of tho day, provided always that dis
cussion is fair and honorable. But whom
it comes to gratuitous slings of an in
discriminate character, at an opposing
candidate, and that, too, without any
sort Of proof, it seems that it is timc for
tho people, in their fair and honest way
of doing things, to call n halt.
There is such q thing rs fairness in
every discussion. 1t is worry easy, it is
true, to make charges, but to furnish
proof thereof is quito another thing.
1t is quito important for tho candidates
now, at tho beginning, to learn that the
voters of tho State demand some owl
dcncc of truth Of grave charges against
candidate before accepting them. That
is right, and what every intelligent voter
ought to and will do. Tho people are
not sct of ignoramuscs, and for this
reason will not condemn public servant
umhcard and will mother call upon any
one to disprove reckless charges.
We find in tho imputations of Mr.. r..
b. Watson, of Saluda, against the official
character of Governor Ellcrbo anything
else than a fair discussion of political
issues. TO mako such charges and leave
them stand Wit fo''t any kind of substan-
tiation is an il 1t to the people of tho
State who elected w. II. Ellcrbo Cover
nor two years ago. Governor Ellorbc
may have, and doubtless has, made some
mistakes in his administration, but the
criticism, coming as it does from an
opposing candidate, impugning his honest
motives, is nntimoly and Of i'll grace.
There are few who believe Governor
Elcrbo has acted dishonorably OF cor
ruptly as charged. We arc not advo-
eating Governor Fllcrbc's election, but
we do believe in fair dealing. Wo pre-.
dict that slingS thrown at him will
strengthen him with fair minded people,
Sometimes such attacks arc made to
got ono man out and the attacking party
