500 REWARD, 500.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure
is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces Of the
system, and thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature In do
ing it's work. The proprieUors have so
much faith in its curative powers, that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that 1t fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials.

Political proh;bitionists,

The purpose of the political Prohibit
tionists who met in Chicago md nomi-
mated a presidential ticket, whether ex-
pressed or not. is to aid the cause of the
Nebraska free silverite. There can be
no hedging on this point by the specious
plea that they only stand for principles
which demand to total obliteration of
the liquor traffic. and that they cannot
compose their consciences to support
the candidate of either party. They
foully slandered President Mckinley
by making charges which were found to
be wholly unfounded by 4 bishop of the
Methodist Episcopal church. and have
pursued him with venom quite char
acterIstlc of Pettlgraw and the Demo-
cratic party.
In the face OF denials they in all un-
charitableness continue the onslaught
on the character of the President and
swing their influences in favor Of the
Democratic organization, from which
they never hope to gain favor or
obtain concession. They are rindic-
lively blind. As the Cleveland Leader
says, "They want to see elected to the
presidency the man who cannot win
without the support of Tammahy. the
most corrupt political organization In
the country. The Tammany delegation,
200 strong. left New York Saturday, en-
route TO- Kansas City. where they were
to join -Grokcr,, their chief, who Is to
. manage Bryan,s campaign in tile east.
Just to show how worthy Bryan is of
the support of the political Prohibition
lists, the Tammany delegates who went
TO Kansas City to shout for him carried
with them. dozen cases of Scotch
whisky. two dozen cases Of American
whisky. three dozen cases OF assorted
cocktails. 10000 bottles OF beer. 800 bot
ties of ale, 1000 quarts of champagne,
1000 pInts of champagne. dozen cases
Of wine, and other liquors In great varl-

Curiosities of Suicide.

a Remarkable Showing.

From the monthly summary Of COM
merce and finance. just Issued by the
treasury bureau of statistics, We gather
facts which show that.th cffec. of thu
new Porto Rlcan tariff act is plainly
perceptible in the commerce between
the United tSates and that island dur
Ing the month OF May. The statement
referred to reveals i situation that Is
highly satisfactory, as the exports to
Porto Rico have more than doubled as
compared with the preceding May, and
imports from the island have yearly
doubled. Exports TO the island from
the United States In. May, 1899, were
s305.5Gi and In May. 1900. S596,i79. The
imports into the United States from tn.
island In May. 1899. were sGi7.l79 and in
May. 1900 s1,l03.S67. THIS increase Is
the more remarkable because II had
bcen understood that the p4op.e OF
Porto Rico had little to sell and little
with which to buy. since the hurricane
of last August had gone far to impov-
erish the people of that island.
It Is also Interesting TO observe that
the May commerce with Porto Rico
shows much greater increase than is
the case with any OF the other islands.
With Cuba the commerce OF May DIFF
fered little from that OF May. 1899, and
this was also the case with the Hawaii
an islands; while In the Philippine is
lands the imports show no increase.
though the exports show a remarkable
gain.
