German Syrup

We want to impress on our readers
that Boschee's German Syrup is
positively the only preparation on
the market today that does relieve
and cure consumption. 1t contains
the specifce, such as pare tar, ex-
tracts of gum, etc, ETC., which have
been so highly endorsed for the cure
of coughs, colds and consumption
by the great medical congresses.
The consumptive, whether his disease
is in the throat or lungs, must have
rest at night, aud be free from the
spasm of dry. and racking cough in
the morning. The diseased parts
want rest, healing and soothing
tseatment, and the patient needs
fresh air, good food, etc, German
Syrup will give free and easy ex-
pectoration in the morning. with
speedy and permanent relief. Small
bottles 25 cents; regular size, con-
tanning nearly four times as much,
Is cents. At Frost & Spies.

of the original record, containing
the credentials of delegates, affidavit
and other evidence, which was pre-
sent and offered to be submitted by
the counsel of the undersigned to
the committee or any subcommittee
appointed to make such examina-
ton.
That said committee did not
examine said records or appoint any
subcommittee to do so, but at the
close of the argument Immediately
decided said contest upon the con
ficting and wholly contradictory
oral statements of counsel for the
respective parties.
That an examination of such
records and such evidence would at
once have disclosed the fact that
everyR material claim advanced by
the attorneys of said contesting dele
gates was without any foundation in
fact.
The conduct OF said committee in
deciding the contest Immediately
without examining the records or
any of the creden tails of the dele >
gates made it clear that the case had
been determined by them in advance
of presentation.
Wenow find upon the creden tias
committee a number of gentlemen
who, as members af the nationa.
committee, were most active in their
support of the cause of the contest
inc delegates. Other members OF
said credentials committee, as we
are credibly informed, have ex-
pressed themselves in favor OF the
contesting delegates, while every
member of said creden tial com mittee,
as we are informed, has been ap-
preached IN advance OF tno nearing
in some manner, for the purpose OF
securing a determination of said con-
testing delegates.
Believing, in view of the foregoing
that it would be futile to present
our cause before this committee, we
prefer 20 rest it with the republican
voters of the state of Wisconsin for
their determination.
