The eyes are always in sympathy with
the body, end atloid an excellent index
of its condition. When the eyes become
weak, and the lids inflamed and sore, it
is an evidenco that the system has
becomo disordered by Scrofula, for
which Ayer'a Sarsaparilla is the best
known remedy.
Scrofula, which produced a painful In
flammation in my eyes, caused mo much
suffering for a number of years. By the
advice of a physician I commenced taking
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. After using this
medicine a short time I was completely
Cured
My eyes aro now in a splendid condi
tion, and I am as well and strong as ever.
Mrs. William uage, uoncoru, n. it.
For a number of rears I was troubled
with a humor in my eyes, and was unablo
to obtain anv relief until I commenced
using Ayer'a Sarsaparilla. This medi
cine has cuecteu a complete cure, anu x
believe it to bo the best of blood puri
fiers. C. E. Upton, Nashua, N. H.
From childhood, and until with a few
months, I have been afflicted with Weak
and Soro Eye3. I have used for theso
complaints, with beneficial results,
Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and consider it a
great blood purifier. Mrs. C. Phillips,
Glover, Vt.
I suffered for a year with inflamma
tion in my left eye. Three ulcers formed
on the ball, depriving mo of sight, and
causing great pain. After trying many
other reuiedios, to no purpose, I was final
ly induced to use Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
By Taking
three bottle3 of this medicine I have been
entirely cured. My sight lias been re
stored, and there is no'feignof inflamma
tion, sore, or ulcer in my eye. Kendal
T. Bowcn, Sugar Tree Ridge, Ohio.
My daughter, ten years old, was afflict
ed with Scrofulous Sore Eyes. During
the last two years she never saw light of
any kind. Physicians cf the highest
standing exerted their skill, but with no
permanent success. On the recommen
dation of a friend I purchased a bottle of
Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which my daughter
commenced taking. Beforo she had used
the third bottle her sight was restored.
Her cure is complete. W. E. Suther

THE 0H10AG0 CONVENTION.
Some of The First Day's Indications-
Chicago, June 19. The first
day's session came as a relief to
the tired army of president-makers
-who had worn themselves out
in the hot corridors of the hotels;
but it has brought few develop
ments bearing upon the outcome.
More significant than anything
else was the expression of the del
egations concerning Blaine's nom
ination. The galleries cheered the
leader of 1884, and so did the del
egates in moderation, but when
chairman Thurston warned the
convention that it must not com
mit suicide by nominating Blaine
against his will, many delegates
gave an expression of approval.
ihe extreme Blame boomers,
such as the Californians, for in
stance, are to-night indignant
at Judge Thurston's remarl j, but
the convention, as a -whole, cer
tainly did not oppose them. The
verdict to-night is that the over
whelming sense of the convention
has been shown to be against the
Blaine business, except in the
event of a hopeless deadlock, in
turning to the leader of '84 natur
ally and by general consent.
THE OPPOSITION TO DEPEW.
In the canvass that is going on
outside the convention hall per
haps the most significant feature
this evening is the inability of
Depew's friends to make a serious
impression on the convention.
During an avowed candidacy of a
day and a half, he has been able
to gather little strength outside
of his state. Depew to-night
claimed 140 votes on the first bal
lot, Dut men well informed give
him only 100. He has, in addition
to the 72 votes of New York, a
few in New England, insecurely
held, one or two in New Jersey,
two in Pennsylvania, six or eight
in Maryland, and about the same
m Alabama; three in Louisiana,
and scattering votes to the num
ber of a dozen more friends. The
New York delegation have made
an effort to dispel the prejudice
against him in the western states,
but without success. Depew him
self has taken part in theso efforts,
sending for many prominent men
and declaring to them that lie
could surely carry New York. A
fair sample of the manner in
which these arguments have bvn
received is to be found in the con
ference held in Depew's parlor
with the Nebraska delegation.
The Nebraska men said they
would be glad to follow the lead
of New York, but it was their
firm conviction that it would be
unwise to do so; that the monopo
ly question was a burning one in
their state, and while they should
be able to carry Nebraska for De
pew, they have local, state and
congressional elections before
them, and the candidacy of De
pew would, in their opinion, seri
ously impair their prospects.
From every quarter come simi
lar expressions, and the Depew
men to-night admit that unless a
change shall come upon the tem
per of the convention their move
ment cannot grow.
A PATRIOTIC COMBINATION.
Out of the confusion, mystery,
bitterness, lack of purpose and a
proneness to allow all personal
prejudice to have gjeat weight,
which have prevailed for some
days, better feeling is now coming.
Some of the best men in the nartv
have reached an agreement to
work together in an effort to brinrr
order out of chaos, and to prevent
the making ol a dangerous norma
ation. This movement embraces
such men as senators Hale, Hoar
and Aldnch, and committeemen
Fessenden in New England, sena
tor Hiscock and ex-senator Plait,
Vm. Walter l'tielps,Uiarksnn and
Gov. Gear of Iowa, and several
other prominent men in New En
gland and the middle states. These
men have held occasional confer
ences, and have sent for the
friends of all the candidates in the
field, for consultation on points of
availability. 1 he champions of all
the candidates have been given an
opportunity to answer and explain
the current objections to their fa
vorites such as the Chinese rec
ord of the senatorial candidates,
Gresham's tariff views, and Alger's
wealth and record as a public man.
Of course the men engaged in the
movement have personal prefer
ences. Hale is for Blaine, Hoar
for Sherman, Phelps is a candi
date himself, Piatt is leaning to
ward Alger, and Clarkson is for
Allison. The feeling is that per
sonal preferences should be waived
and some organized effort be made
to do the wisest thing for the par
ty. It is believed that this move
ment had its rise in a general con
viction that the nomination of De
pew would be imprudent. Ex-
senator llatt and YVm. Walter
Phelps, who are opposed to De
pew, were the prime movers in the
combination, and it is claimed that
Connecticut's decision to present
the name of senator Hawley was
made for the purpose of holding
votes from Depew. It is not the
purpose of this combination to se
lect a candidate immediately. The
purpose of the men engaged in it
is to get to balloting with a tacit
understanding that they are to
come together in a crisis which
may seem to demand action on
their part.
According to the present pro
gramme the vote of New England,
which excepting tiawley, has no
candidate, is to be split among all
the candidates at the outset.
Maine will give a vote to every
candidate in the field; Vermont
will vote for Sherman; Massachu
setts and New Hampshire will
split; Rhode Island wilt vote for
Allison; Connecticut of course for
Hawley; New York is solid for
Depew, excepting John O'Brien,
who declares he will vote for
Blaine. New Jersey is for Phelps;
Pennsylvania has 33 votes for
Sherman, 15 for Fitler, and 10
scattering. Ohio is for Sherman,
Indiana for Harrison, Michigan for
Alger, Illino's for Gresliam, "Wis
consin for Rusk, Iowa for Allison,
Minnesota 10 votes for Gresliam,
and 4 scattering. Kansas is for
Ingalls, Colorado and Nevada are
doubtful, Oregon for Gresliam and
California for Stanford. The bouth
is divided between Sherman,
Gresham, Alger, Depew and Har
rison. THE FIRST I1ALI.OT.
Aii intelligent estimate of the
fust ballot shows eleven candi
dates with votes about as follews:
Sherman 250, Gresham 100, Depew
100 Alger SO, Harrison 120, Alli
son 50 Phelps 18, Rusk 22, Ingalls
14, Filler 15, Stanford 1G. This
leaves thirty-five votes unaccoun
ted" for. Missouri and Arkansas
are still doubtful. It is believed
there will be no material change
from this estimate for a ballot or
two, and it is thought the conven
tion will then adjourn over night.
During that night some combina
tions will be made with a view to
controlling the nomination.
At the present writing the nomi
nation of Depew appears impossi
ble. After this shall be demon
strated in the balloting, Piatt will
probably call away his, forces,
numbering twenty or twenty five
votes, and if a combination has
been formed will throw his men in,
and "Warner Miller is expected to
throw his votes to Sherman.
What Depew will do when the
moment comes for abandoning Ins
own canvass is one of the mysteries
of the hour.
An intimate fiiciul of Debew's
said' to-night: "If Depew cannot
be nominated I look to see him
rise, and in a theatrical manner

throw his votes to Blaine."
Mr. Depew himself will be
placed in nomination by Senator
H:scock.
A SOLDIER WANTED.
Just now one fact is pretty well
settled, and that is the nomination
of a soldier, in one place or other.
This fact militates much against
Allison, who otherwise is in a good
position.
The opposition of the racihe
states clearjy weakens Sherman.
Just now Harrison is in high
feather. New England and New
Jersey are looming toward him,
and it is not impossible that he
will ultimately be made the choice
of the convention of men spoken
of. If the nomination comes to the
"West it will probably go to Har
rison, Alger or Gresham. The
chances ot these are in the order
named. Phelps is almost certain
to be named lor vice-president, if
the nomination comes "West, and
if Blaine or an eastern man is
named, Gov. Porter of Indiana, or
Alger will be taken. If Sherman
should be compelled to fall back
beaten, Gov. Foraker will be
sprung on the convention, and at
the same time many of Sherman's
supporters will go to Gresham.
Senator Qua' is leaning toward
Grc-l-jiii. and many Gresham men
arc inclined toward the Ohio sena
tor, if their man cannot be named.
The Gresliam managers have a
card to play in a break from Har
rison in the Indiana delegation,
while they control nearly one-third
of the votes.
The election of Estee for per
manent chairman is construed as a
Blaine victory by outsiders, but it
is known to insiders to be the re
sult of a trade by which California
drops the Blaine boom, and in con
sideration of abandoning their in
tention of throwing a firebrand
into the convention, is given the
chairmanship.
