Deafness Can't BIO Cured

by local application, as they cannol
reach the diseased portion Of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that Is by constitutional remedies
Deafness Is caused by an inlamed con
dition OF the mucus lining Of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have n rumbling sound Of
imperfect hearing, and when 1t Is on,
tirely closed, deafness Is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored TO Its normal con,
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out Of ten are Causedby
catarrh, which Is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucus surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars fol
any case OF Deafness, Caused by Catarrh,
that we cannot cure by taking Halli
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars. free

the policy Of . party which has NO
thought Of scaling downthe tariff o the
Covrisr-Jour1al and its party demands,
On the heels Of this trlumpho Of the party
OF Protection TO American Industries the
English fall over each other in their de-
sire to put their money into American
enterprises.
If the country had declared in favor Of
scaling down the tariff according to the
Democratic programme, British capital
lists might have kept their money al
home and supplied us with their pro
ducts. Their money Is better for US thar

DOLLS RUN OIL FIELD.


How Il Is EnriOhing the Citizens of AlPnOn-
gala COuRty.
MorgGRtovR Hfp poaiRioR,
The Mt, Morris oil field has been gone
over sufficiently heretofore and for the
present we need only refer TO the
Monongalia work, Shortly after the oil
was developed at Mt, Morris, a test well
was drilled on the Donley land (the old
IPostlewaite place. but II proved to be
only a gasser-but one OF both quantity
and quality. About the beginning Of
the present year Il, NJ, Hpkill began 0
test we'll on Dolls Run on the Lemley
farm which in due time came In Q pro-
Queer. About the same time well was
drilled by q company on the land Of
Justus Wade, but II also proved q gasser.
However the Lemley well developed
the fact that we had oil in Monongalia
and set the machine in motion lively,
And now there are on this side OF the
State line about % wells In progress,
three Of which, the Lemley, the NJ, l.,
Core and the VIM. Core are now produ,
GERS, The reports vary as 10 the daily
product, but the Core wells may safely
DO put at from 200 to 800 barrels each,
and the Lemley well which for a while
was rated at a hfty-barrel well, we learn
is now doing from rs to 50 barrels per
day,
tools fast at a depth OF about 1900 feet,
and have had a FISHING job" for two
weeks, When We consider the fact that
for each OF those % to 30 wells drilling
or to be drilled In ours and adjoining
districts Of Monongalia county, and 70,
member that for each well so drilled
about 5000 will be expended for ma
chinery, lumber, hauling and for labor
etc., 1t requires about 10000 feet o.
lumber and timber for each welD we
can easily see that this will circulate Q
good deal OF money among the people
And then this leaves out Of the questior
the fact that very considerable sums are
paid out in bonuses, and monthly and
quarterly rentals, all OF which goes Il
enrich our people, without taking any
p%erceptible values away except the ium,
Der used, and even that timber is still
left In the field. Altogether the OF
boom has been q good one for the peo
pie OF Cass, Clay and Grant districts
We will try and give you a more definite
account soon.

So determined has been the raid on
tho proposition to kill murderers by
electricity, that 1t Is safe to predict that
New York's pioneer, Kemmler, will not
DO dispatched in that way. Experts have
testified that the electrical apparatus de-
signed for the purpose will not kill in
stantly, and others have testified that
none OF them can reasonably be expect
ed to knowanything about 1t. The New
York Pres shrewdly remarks.
Here is a Westinghouse expert testify.
ing that the alternating current would
not do at ali for executions, when Il Is
q notorious fact that the Westinghouse
Company uses alternating currents in It's
business and does not want them proved
deadly. And behold, everybody goes Of
at half cock and vowsthat electrical exc.
Cution won't do ut all.
Nothing Is better established by the
history OF testimony than that the testi.
mouy OF experts Is liable 10 prove any
thing and that is not 10 be depended on
where there are circumstances calculated
to create conscious or unconscious preju.
diCes. And the argument against such
prejudiced testimony Is stronger, not
weaker, because OF the possible good
character OF the experts. II Is no insult
To the Bible TO say that you may prove
from II any doctrine you want to believe,
and the Pres means no reflection on
Westinghouse when II says that their
testimony should not DO allowed any
special weight under the circumstances.
The new law may DO impraCticable
and electrical death cruel and uncertain,
but don't play the farce OF saying that
that this is proved by Westinghouse ex.

IIrltiAh Capital and tho American TRtIn
The cagerness Of British capitalists tC
find investment for their money In thii
country Is ono OF tho most notable
things Of the day. British capital has
long sought our railroad securities, bui
now II Is hunting our brewCries, res
t%aurantS, Touring mills, lead and sail
works, iron and steel plants, and other
fields OF activity. The Louisville Courier
journal, discussing tho matter, says.
A recent writer In the Pail Mall
Gazette, who says that he lived many
years lii America and is therefore well
prepared 10 prove his statements, asserts
that thinRs are In d very bad way here.
According 10 his published letter, North,
East, South and West form four hostile
sections and the whole republic will
shortly crumble TO pieces. The way
lIis Countrymen arc sending money over
ilere for Investment shows very plainly
the drift Of British opinion on that sub.
ieCt, II John Bull thought the Ameri.
can republic was In any danger he
would not place several thousand mil.
lion dollars In our railways, breweries,
wheat mills and other enterprises Moth.

A Now prIck Mork..

On Tuesday morning the establish.
ment Of Hopkins & Bane, up at Short
Creek, got started under way making
fire brick. They have an excellent vein
Of clay about twenty feet thick located
near the surface on the eastern side OF
the hill. A tunnel through the hill is
used to get at the clay, which Is Of a
very superior quality, making bricks
that are pronounced by experts to be
equal TO any in the market. II is the In
tention Of the firm to make tile in a
short time. .

If British capital thinks it is going to
get all the good things, let 1t enjoy the

British money in their pockets will find
something to do with it, and when they
have made that something profitable,
they will DO ready with another deal
with the Britishers.
