WABH INGTON. June 22. -The queatlon
whether Representative Sherman will re
main aa chairman o( the republican con
gressional committee la, not regarded as
conclusively settled by . persons who . are
familiar with the. work of the committee
In this city. It Is expected that this matter
will be determined when the republican na
tional committee meets here July 1, when
both Mr. Teft and Mr. Sherman will be
present and when many matters relatlr. to
the campaign will be determined. It Is
believed that In advance of the selection
of a chairman, Mr. Sherman, hlmaelf, has
done nothing to determine just what part
he will tako In the campaign.
The positions of Secretary Taft and that
of Mr. Sherman, so far as their official
duties are concerned are not regarded here
as st all Identical. The resignation of 8ec
retary Taft was expected by every one aa
It was manifestly Impossible for him to
attend to the duties of secretary of war
and be at the head of the republican ticket.
There was other phases of his case relating
to the propriety of filling a cabinet posi
tion and going actively Into the campaign
which do not apply to the case of Mr.
Sherman.
Identical lnisnrri.
Thtre are many Instances In which men
have retained their positions as members
of the house of representatives and have
gone into campaigns for other positions,
not resigning from the house until the re
sult of their campaign has been shown.
Mr. Sherman will probably continue to be
a membeTNjf the house of representatives
until the fourth of next' March, even In the
event of his election to the vice-presidency.
It Is said here that In filling the office
of chairman of the congressional committee
he will neglect no duty that he would
have performed It he had not been nomi
nated on the republican ticket. In thla view
of the case, many of Mr. Sherman's
friends here consider all talk of his resig
nation of the committee or aa a' member
of the house as purely speculative.

Catarrh is not merely a disease of the mucous membranes and inner
linings of the body as some of the symptoms would seem to indicate ; it is a
deep-seated blood disease, in which the entire circulation and the greater
part of the system are involved. Like all other blood diseases. Catarrh
comes from poisons and impurities accumulating in the circulation which
Irritate And inflame the tissues and mucous surfaces, and then the unpleasant
ly mp torn ci the disease are manifested. There is a riofinjr noise in the
tar, a thin, watery discharge from the nostrils, filthy matter drops back into)
the throat, the breath has an offensive odor, and many other annoying and
unpleasant symptoms are characteristic of the trouble. Sprays, washes,
inhalations, etc., cannot reach the blood, and are therefore valuable only for
the temporary relief they adord. To enre Catarrh the blood must he purified.
XCothing equals S. S. S. for this purpose; it goes down into the circulation,
removes the catarrhal matter, purifies the blood and makes a lasting cure.
When S S. S. has removed the cause, the blood being pure and healthy
nourishes the membrane and tissues instead of irritating them with noxioul
matter, and the symptoms all rass away. Book on Catarrh and any medical
