BY e~radicating from the blood the scrofu-
lous taints which cause it. Hoods Sars-
aparilla cures catarrh, promptly and per
manently, because it strikes at the root of
the trouble.
The rich, pure blood which it makes,
circulating though the delicate passages
of the mucous membrane, soothes and re
builds the tissues, giving them a tendency
to health instead of disease, and ultimately
curing the affection.
AT the same time Hoods Sarsaparilla
strengthens, ~invigorates and energies the
victim of catarrh feel that new life has
been impaired.
Do not daily with snufs, inhalants or

and surely by removing the causes which
produce it.

Two weeks ago, it seemed fore.
gone conclusion that Jno. T. Nc
Graw would be elected to Congress
from this district. The only appre
hension felt among Democrats was
as to whether the very favorable
outlook of that date would hold up
against the desperate efforts of the
Republican managers, reinforced BY
the lavish use of money, to secure
Mr.. Dayton's election. Only one
week of the campaign remains and
every effort has been put forth
to stay the rising tide in McGraw's
favor without effect. He is growing
in strength daily. We honestly be
lieve that Mr. Dayton is now doom
ed TO defeat,and that the only thing
that could possibly prevent Nc
Graw's triumphant election would
be the apathy and neglect Of Demo
cratic voters in failing to turn out
on the day of the election. There
is nowhere any evidence of such
feeling. Democrats seem anxious
to go to the polls to,register there
disapprobation of the Republican
administrator, and Republicans
themselves in large numbers are
only waiting for ar opportunity to
show their admiration of Mr.. Nc.
Graw by supporting his candidacy.
The situation is truly one of great
encouragement and with proper eff.
fort all along the line. Mr.. McGraw
is now assured of his election. He
desires this vindication and we feel
certain that the people OF the Second
district will accord it to him by a
large majority.-Fairmont Index

Creased Track--Reduced to Ranks.


Knoxville, Tenn, Nov. About ten
O'Clock last night the track of the Foun-
tain City Railway Company was creased
on a steep grade, and it was impossible
to run a train from that time until morn
ing. The trick was done by members of
the Sixth Ohio and First West Virginia
in a spirit of revenge. as the company
had refused to furnish free t~ransporta-
ton to the daily provost guard details
from those regiments. Manager Doll, of
the railway company. went out to inves-
tigate the trouble and was tossed in a
blanket. The matter was the reported
to Colonel Kuert, commanding the divi-
sion, and he ordered out one battalion of
the West Virginia regiment to prevent
further trouble. The boys saythat when
they leave they will tear up the entire
track in the vicinity of their camp, and
it is feared they will carry out their
threat.
In regard to the above a dispatch from
Knoxville dated Nov. 4 says:
The matter was Immediately reported
to the colonies of the respective regi-
ments, who ordered roll call at once
All men found to be absent without leave
were tt be treated as participants in the
trouble and punished accordingly. Yes
terday SO noncommissioned officers of the
Sixth Ohio and Al from the First West
Virginia regiments were reduced to the
ranks for taking part in the affair.

A correspondent of the Washington
Post, writing from Grafton of the Nc
Graw-D Dayton contest for Congress, sizes
them up as follows: The candidates are
Aston G. Dayton for the Republicans,
and John T. McGraw for the Democrats.
Both men are widely known. Dayton is
serving his second term in Congress. He
is a smooth faced, strong,fentured man, n
lawyer by profession. McGraw is a fine
type of a young active business man, full
of energy aud resource, experienced in
politics aud exceedingly ambitious. Per
s]onally popular and a good talker, he has
a faculty of making friends, and for this
reason has not delegated to any one else
the work of stumping the district. He
has been everywhere, and in a district
like this the task of speaking in all the
counties is one of considerable magni-
tude."

Since our last issue we are in receipt
ofa copy of the Wheeling News, o
tanning a letter from Grafton saying tina,
a "roorback," in The shape of accusation
that Col. McGrnw is imposed to public
schools, has been sprung, and giving ex-
tracts from letters denying that there is a
scintilla Of truth in it. The ex principal
of the Grafton Schools says: "IfMr. Nc.
Graw has done anything Of hostile ma.
ture to the public schools l have never
heard of it. 1 am il a position to know,
too. that if he ever attempted anything
of that kind. and can say without hesila-
ton that he never did, md 1 do moi be
Iieve that he would." The protestant
pastors of churches ia the same town in
substance say the same ,hing-aud one
of them takes a step farther aud says that
he "knows that Col. McGraw has been a
liberal contributor to both Protestant aud
Catholic Churches" Col. McGraw is a
highly educated man graduate of the
colleges, aud obtained what he has in an
educational way by persevering endeavor
and hard work, therefore appreciates the
educational advantages the youth of to-
day have and is favorable to public
schools-does, and is willing, 10 aid them.
