honestly conducted in Elk county the re-
suit would have been in my favor We
know of many illegal acts of the opposi-

in the state where the election laws are so
lightly regarded.
"In the last election but one of the 80
saloonkeepers gave me any assistance
and he had TO be extremely careful that
he was not discovered. 4 number OF
these men are Republicans, but they are
not always at liberty to support their

win this contest. Any fair-minded COM
mitteeman will admit that the Republi-

Even if 1 should not be given the seat,
the airing the Democracy of Elk county
will be subject to will do much toward
purifying politics here, Were it not for
fraud and intimidation, the Democrats
could not control their county. There
are districts where ones life is in danger
if attempt is made to thwart the will of
the machine"

Any adult suffering from cold settled

troubles of any nature, who will call on
J. D. Davis, will be presented with a
sample bottle of Boschee's German Syrup
free of charge. Only one bottle given to
one person, and none to children with
out order from parents.
No throat or lung remedy everhad such
a sale as Boschee's German Syrup in all
parts of tho civilized world. Twenty
years ago millions of bottles were given
away, and your druggists will tell you its
success was marvellous. 1t is really the
only Throat and Lung Remedy generally
endorsed by physicians. One 10 cent
bottle will cure or prove its value. Sold

"Last evening papers were served on

Wilcox, is, of course, the contestant
The papers in the proceedings were
prepared by Hon. w. c.. Arnold, of
this place. Mr.. Arnold has given careful
attention to the preparation of the case,
and it is assumed what has been done has
been well done. Had the opportunity
not arrived for serving the papers ON Mr..
Hall at home, service would have been
secured at Washington. 1t is more than
a month since the election, and expecta-
tions of a contest, in the public mind, had
subsided. Nobody will say 81 knew it

arrived at the other conclusion, except
those who we're interested in preparing
for the contest"

Deafness Cannot Re Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an intiamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and VII m it is entire

less the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored TO its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

the plurality for Mckinley in Bryan's
