The readers of this paper will be

one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
Il constitutional disease, requires CON
Stitutional treatment. Halls Catamh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surface of
the system, thereby destroying the foun-
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers that they

the returns is hardly necessary. Not
since 1872, when Grant received the elec-
toral vote of the State by 3,146 majority,
has Republican victory been recorded
in Arkansas, and the Democracy is so
strongly entrenched that it has not vet
occurred to the red shirt element to make
any attempt at formally DISTINGUISHING
the cOlored voters by constitutional
amendment.
Yet the Republican vote of the State
has ut times assumed rather formidable
proportions: at the Presidential election
of 1854, it rose to nearly $1,000 i'll Il total
of less than 1240O0; and in 1888 to nearly
$4,000 in total of $4,000. Since then
the Republican figures have been on Il
steady decline, and two years ago only
21,524 ballots were caSt-Or mt least

APATHY's BAD WORK IN 1892,
Facts to Re Pondered by Republic
ans In All Close States.

Facts to Re Pondered by Republic
ans In All Close States.
Republican politicians are justified in
their apprehensions about the effect Of
the apathy of the party of which
they complain. There is abundant
warrant for worry on their part, as the
New York Post $lmits, in the record
of the election of 1892, after a cam
paign which was apathetlc on the Re-
publican side. Take, for example, the
contrasts between the votes of 1888
and 1892 in the states of New York,
Ohio and Indiana. Harrison carried
New York in 1888 by 14,373 plurality
and lost it by 45,51S in 1892; yet the
Democratic vote had increased by only
1S,903, the rest of the change being due
to falling off of 409SS on the Re
publican side.v Harrison carried Ohio
by nearly 10000 plurality in 1888 and
saved it by less than 1900 in 1852 tone
Cleveland elector, indeed, being cho-
sem; but the Democratic vote was not
SGo0 larger, the revolution which al
most gave the Democrats all the elect
oral votes being caused by falling
off of over 10000 on the Republican
side. In like manner Cleveland had
over 1000 plurality in Indiana in 1892
with poll only about LOO larger
than in 1888, when he was beaten by
over 1000, because apathy kept nearly
5000 Harrison men Of 1883 from re-
naming such four years later.

must have spent his vacation thinking

Mr.. salisbury has just given out an
Interview on the political situation here

cause of the display it makes of Mr.
Saulsbury's lack of political knowledge,
his love of self-seeking publicity and his
utter hypocrisy in dealing with men and

politician and demagogue who wants to
get his heel on the neck of the Democ-
racy of Delaware and find lodging
place among men of broad mind iii the
United States Senate.
When Mr.. salisbury says that the
Democrats of Delaware are united he
makes msstatement of facts. They
are at lOggerheads in every county, dis
trict and ward in the State One of the
burning issues is the candidacy of Mr..
Salisbury for place in the Senate
The Rayard Gray and Wolcott factions

the old Salisbury faction. and if they
are not successful it will he because OF
ineXcuSable bunglmg ON their part.
As an evidence Of the depth of tho
Salisbury reasoning, he says there arc
no gold Democrats in Delaware. In the
next sentence he rcfuteS his own state
ment by declaring that fifty per cent. OF
the gold Democrats of four years age
will vote for Bryan; twenty-five per cent
will vote for Mckinley and twenty-fiv,
per cent will not vote ut all. Time will
demonstrate that he is ignorant Of tho
sentiment existing within the ranks ot
the party which he would like to cal

ROOSEVELT VS.. BRYAN.
From the New York Evening Sun.

From the New York Evening Sun.
Mr.. Bryan could not resist the temp
tation to play the demagogue yesterday
ut Chicago. where. with Gov. Roosevelt,
he addressed great gathering Of or
ganizcd labor. The trades unions had
given notice that in the celebration of
Labor Day there was to be no politics.
If the speeches of Mr.. Bryan and Gov.
Roosevelt are read it will be found that
the latter scrupulously respected the
wishes Of his hosts, while Mr.. Bryan
strenuously violated the understanding.
The Governors address was manly.
thoughtful, disinterestcd treatment of
the condition of labor and it contained
much sound advice as we'll as sympn-
thrtic admonitions. Mr.. Bryan'S adj
dress was an harangue for votes. and it
contained indictments to discomfort and
much cheap demagogy of the kind which

Sheep and Beef Rnisers ror McIIin

ley.
Bert Anderson, one of the prominent
sheep raisers of Kansas, has been in
the sheep business for 90 years and
says he doesn't know of single sheep
man in all his acquaintance who will
vote for Bryan this year. He says he
has heard good number of Democrats
declare publicly for Mckinley in the
last few weeks.
The Anderson brothers Of Topeka got
$4,000 in debt handling sheep during
Cleveiand's administration and were
pretty well aattencd out. During the
McK inley administration the Anderson
boys have sold $4,000 worth of sheep
and wool from their fiocks, are out Of
debt, have fine farm and good bank
account. In Hamilton county, Kan,
a dozen former Bryan supporters have
declared for Mckinley.
Prosperity has shared its blessings
with the beef raiser of the west and
brought to him advanced prices for his
beef. In 1896. during Democracy and
depression, beef on hoof per 100 pounds
sold for S325; in 1899, under Mckinley
and prosperity, beef on hoof per 100
pounds sold for S4.G5. The wool grow
ers and sheep raisers have been bene-
fitted to an unparalleled degree by the
return of a protective tariff. During a
Democratic administration and the
Wilson tariff medium wool sold for Is
cents per pound in 1896; during McKin-
ley and n protective tariff medium wool
sold in 1899 for 81 cents per pound. In
short, the wool producers almost dou.
bled the price of their wool under u
protective taitT.

RIGHT TO REGISTER.
m the Daily Republican.

From the Dally RepuDllcan.
The Dover State Sentinel charges the
Democrats with making every effort to
keep the colordd men off the registration
lists and deprive them Of their franchise.
1t then says that Alfred Bell. over
whom they created such Il howl for try
ing to register illegally. has lived on
State Street. Dover. for IL years. His
right To register is just as good and per-
haps better than the man who had him
arrested or the registrar who refused to
put his name on the lists. With Re
publican judge on the bench it would not
succeed as in the past. 1t makes all the
difference whether the appeals are made
to Republican or Democratic judge.
There should be no trouble for every
man who is in every way qualified to
vote, getting registered and casting his
ballot this fall for Mckinley and
