There IS more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro- nounced 1t a local disease and prescrlb- ed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurahle. Science has proven Catarrh to be a constitutional disease. and therefore requires constl- tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure manufactured by F. J Cheney X Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constltu- tional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from l0 drors to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the sys- tem. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.

By watching the advertising columns of a newspaper we are enabled to know the exact con- dition of mercantile affairs and the general prosperity or de- pression in the town where that paper is published. We can sit at our desk and pick out the live business towns and the dead towns. There is no better in~ dex to town than it's paper; 1t is a better criterion to go by, and is considered so by saga cious men, than a photograph, it is the enterprise of the in- habitants of the town and not the size of the buildings that makes the town. You may pick up a paper and read at a glance, We mean business" or We are deader than a stuffed bird, as plain as though it was printed in ten line pica and red ink across every page.

 Making Clothes for Schvinkcr.

Judge John H. Kirkham has di- rected judgement for the plaintiff to recover $54 in the case of Anton Brown vs. Louis Schwinker. Law yer H. P. Roche represented the plaintiff and Lawyer M. D. Sake the defendant.

HALLIN CANDIDATE
 FOR REGISTRARSHIP
Struggle for Republican Nomination Has Now Become Three
 cOTncred Battle.

Entrance into the field today of Jchn H. Hallin as a candidate for
 registrar of voters on the republican side gave a decided twist to the aspect of affairs. Up to now only a duel was
 looked for with William Ziegler and
 William H. Scheuy in the leading roles, and while a hot fight was an ticipated nobody thought for a minute that it would turn out to be a tri- angular affair with each man having two opponents to watch while en- deavoring to get in a telling blow.
 Both Registrar Zeigler and William H. Scheuy, who waS busted from the job two years ago after an unbroken term of years, are of German eXtrac- yion and depend to a large extent for aid from voters of TeutOnic origin, but MT. Hallin will have to look to another source for his support. He
 is what is nominally termed a
 Swedish American candidate and can
 be depended on to gain many of
 these votes in the coming primaries.
 He figures much of his chance for
 victory depends upon Ziegler and
 Scheuy battling it out to a finish
 with GermanAmerican ballots as
 missiles, leaving him free to an easy capture of the rest of the field with a solid backing of Swedish-American votes. The battle promises to rank | only second to the coming mayoralty 1 fight and from now on the campaign | will be fiercely waged
 MT. Hallin, the latest candidate was for a number of years employed l ty the T. w. OConnor company and i lately for the Farrell & O'Connor company. He will complete his labors with the latter concern this | week and then will devote his whole attention to the coming campaign. Tn this he is following in the footsteps Of MT. Scheuy who has just termi- l mated his services with the Gulf Re- fning company as bookkeeper with the determination to devote all his time from now until the primaries in the struggle to regain the party 1iominatlon, which is equivalent to victory at the polls. Mir. Hallin is a 1 member of Andree lodge, I. o. o. F., being a past grand. He is also a rne ember of the Svea Social club, the Vega society and has served in Com pany E, c. N. G.
