Catarrh Cured by Electricity
Attest: F.. n. CRAIG,
Secretary.

Catarra can be easily, quickly
pleasantly ard lastingly cured BY The
Electric Jar. 1t clears the head
sweetens the breath, and cures Ca
tarrh III all its stages. The Jar will
cure the worst nervous headache in
from one to three minutes. No wait
ing for results; this novel ane true
curative shows its wonderful power
instantly, and gives universal satisfac-
ton, as cures by natures remedy are
permanent.
Catarrh, common and dangerous
malady, when chronic, is liable to
consume the frontal homes of the
skull, destroy the cartilages of the
nose, and undermine and blight every
function and faculty of its victim.
The breath is offensive, the memory,
the reasoning powers, sight, hearing
and the senses of taste aud smell are
the digestive and assimila-
tive functions become disordered.
and Consumption ensues. The 81
Electric Jar will eradicate Catarrh
and prevent these evils. A fortune
for agents. For catalogue of all kinds

IMPORTANT DICISION

The Farmerville Gazette heads an
article An Important Decision" and
gives a portion of Judge Barksdale' :
opinion. This was a case wherein the
Sleritf' of Union parish advertised a
Judgment fer sale COR taxes.
The plaintiffs eijoined the sale
many legal points are given. The
Plaintiff. Y. 4 A. Never & Co. were
taxed with the notes upon which the
Judgment was based in the CITY Of
New Orleans. The court very proper
/; rerlctnatel the injunction. This
opens up very important question.
y merchant sells goods to 4, WHO
fails to pay. Ia order to keep his
debt alive, he obtains Judgment, hop
ing at some future day \ Will have
something at which lie can get to
maze his money, or some part of it.
The assessor comes along and assesses
this Judgment as that much property.
In the first place the merchant
pays for the privilege Of selling these
goods Il license; lie fails to oct his
money, and then he is required to
pay tax on that which is worthless
The whole thing IS wrong.
Some time since party in our
parish sold property-all on credit.
the assessor claimed that he had the
right to assess the property and also
the notes. Now, the question is this,
when the property was assessed was
not the full value represented on the
ROLF
10 assess the notes whose value and
consideration was nothing more than
'epresnting that identical property
md in addition to assess that same
property, it seems to us is the same az
louble assessment.

AS to health, the statistics show
that Louisiana is one of the healthiest
States in the United States.
We have about fifteen school
houses for the white children and
about the same for the colored chill
dren, or an average of about four to
each ward. Fifteen or twenty church
es for the colored people. About a
dozen churches for the white people.
Fourteen business houses at Delhi
enc at Goshen, eight at Rayville,
four or FIVE at Girard, six or seven at
Alto, and two at and near Charlie
vile. Also enc store in the Little
Greek neighborheod in ward five of
Richland parish.
Our voting population is supposed
to be about 1910.
We have at least fifty different
kinds of timbers and in large quaint
ties.
Only about one acre in fourteen is
now in cultivation. Now, with the
levees up half of the wood land is
susceptible of cultivation. That is

terry advertisement. A huge Job tc
read out all the journals in the State
who publish their advertisement.
To assume the position that every
advertisement inserted in newspa-
per is an endorsement of the editor
Is strange idea. y brings in an
advertisement, says, Il sell goods

brings in a similar notice. Does the
editor refuse to insert them simply
because one may be correct while the
other is bound to be untrue?
We copy the following from the Lou

ject:
I've notice some discussion recent

1t Is legitimate for newspaper TO

Of the land permit, provided it is not
done at the price of tie silence OF the

PAPER can properly advertise pistols
md dlrks for sale, but it can hardly
properly advocate the carrying Of
concealed weapons or even keen

peak out on the subject. The same
nay be said of the lottery. A news
'aper may advertise the institution
s a matter of pure business, but when
