Monday was election day in a nurru
ber of Ohio cities, notably Cleveland

Cleveland was there a democratic
avalanche and a republican Waterloo.
The republicans were victorious lr

were no match for the hosts of Tora
Johnson, the greatest democrat of the
country.
i "-j The Election Returns.
The .reports to the morning papers
were as follows:
Cleveland. O.. Aoril 8. A cold rain
fell ,ln this city throughout the "early,
. i . - . i
morning uours, causing a iigni voie
to be cast in most of the nrecincts. A
feature of the contest was the womeii
voters, more, than 15,000., of whom reg
istered. Aside from the interest man'
ifested In the school directorship, thev
main fight hinged on the election ot
councilmen, Mayor Johnson having
made a strong fight against candl
dates not in sympathy with the 3t
cent car fare movement. The follow
ing democrats were elected in this
city today:
Starr Cadwallader, school director,
defeated 'Hi P. "Sargent, by 3000 lu
rality; H. D. Cofflnberry, city treas
urer. defeated W. F. Hoppensack, re
publican, by a like plurality; three
members of tho school council; J. L.
Reilly, Justice" of the peace; six out
of 11 new councilmen.
The new city council' will be com.
posed of 12 democratsjind 10 repub
licans. Mr. Cofflnberry was tempor
arily appointed to the office of city
treasurer, upon the recent death of
George P. Kurtz. Mayor Tom Johu
son took an active part in the canv
paign.

headed by Frank Van Loo for street
commissioner, by an average majority

pal election in Columbus resulted in
the re-election of Edward C. Fraas,
republican, for clerk of police court,
and L. D. Andrews, republican, foi
justice of the peace, by 600 and 400

Mercury and potash
ONLY SERVE AS A MASK FOR.
CONTAGIOUS BLOOD. POISON
They hide its repulsive form, and this serpent disease,
stupefied by these drugs, lies dormant until the effects
have worn off or treatment is discontinued, when it
breaks down the mask and becomes as full of life and venom as ever.
Mercury and Potash may dry up the sores and eruptions, but at the same
time they drive the poison back into the blood and system, where it feeds
upon the tender tissues, membranes and nerves, finally breaking out ia
most disgusting sores and even destroying the flesh and bones.
Mercury and Potash cannot accomplish a radical and permanent cure.
They have a palliative butrnot curative effect upon this treacherous snaUe
like disease. These drugs produce mercurial Rheumatism, destroy the
teeth and corrode the membranes of the stomach and bowels, causing inflam
mation and dyspepsia, nervousness and general derangement of the system.
S. S. S. is a Specific for Contagious Blood Poison, and theonly antidote
for the peculiar virus that spreads so quickly throughout the system,
corrupting the blood and infecting every organ and fibre of the body.
t. o, o. destroys tue acrpcni, uuu cnmiuu;o
every atom of poison from the blood, it makes a
thorough and radical cure of the disease, and at the
same time builds up the general health. S. S. S.
contains no minerals of any kind, but is a purely
Vegetable remedy and we offer $1,000 for proof to tie contrary.
