Catarrh is an American disease. Fully
one-half Of the people are afflicted more
or less with it in some form. Previous
to the discovery of Pe-ru-na, catarrh was
considered well-nigh incurable. Since
the introduction of Pe-ru-na TO the medi-
cal profession thousands OF cases are
cured annually.
BY aid Of DR.. Hartman's free books
and free correspondence a multitude Of
hopeless people are permanently cured
Of this most loathsome and stubborn
disease every year. Anyone afflicted
with catarrh should write DR.. Hartman,

COUNTING VOTES.
The State Commission Met Yes.
terday at Frankfort.
VIII "Examine" the Votes and
Then Canvass" Them Ac-
cOrding 80 Law.

Frankfort, Ky, Dec, 1.-The
State Board has announced that
the general public will not be ad-
mitted to the count. The Republi-
can leaders know that their "army
of inlimidationists, as the Demo-
Gratis call it, will not be admitted,
and they do not believe that Judge
Pryor, Capt. Ellis and Mr.. Poyntz
can be made TO fear for their per-
sonal safety by threats of violence.
But the Democratic leaders say
that the Republicans hope, through
the excitement aroused by the pres
ence of a big crowd, to Impress the
State Commissioner with the belief
that if the certificate is given to
Senator Goebel there will be serious
trouble and the responsibility will
be on their shoulders.
It is believed that the count will
not be finished before Wednesday
or Thursday, or, possibly, not un-
til Friday or Saturday. For what
ever may be the decision of the
board as to its powers in "eXamn-
ing and canvassing the returns, it
will probably hear the two sides
argue the question. Besides there
must be a tabulation of the vote
from each county in all the State
races. There is no probability of a
conclusion of these labors before
the middle of the week.
If Attorney General Taylor gets
the certificate, he will be inaugu-
rated a week from Tuesday, and it
would end the fight, unless Senator
Goebel should decide to make a con-
test before the General Assembly.
If Senator Goebel gets the certifi-
cate, it may be necessary to enjoin
Mr.. Taylor from attempting to take
possession, for it is asserted by the
Republicans that, whether or not
Mr., Taylor gets the certificate, he
will be inaugurated on December
II. In other words, they are plan
ming, if in this they are serious, to
ignore the action of the State Board.
They declare that a week from next
Tuesday Mr.. Taylor will make his
inaugural speech in front of the
State-house. Ii Mr.. Goebel had the
certificate, it is probable that he
would go into the State Fiscal
Court, over which Judge Cantrill
presides, and enjoin Mr.. Taylor
from usurping the office,
1t is only the Republicans that
are talking about civil war and
bloodshed. The Democrats express
the firm belief that there will be no
trouble.
Mayor Dehoney has decided to
swear in 90 extra policemen. This
is not especially on account of the
gubernatorial contest, but chiefly
because of the crowd that will be
brought here by the monthly court
day and by the opening of the con-
gressional campaign in this district,

been pleased with the construction of
the new mile track that is to have it's

reached at less distance from this city
than was formerly required to attend
the Fleetwood races.
The programme for the week is at
