Esq. ii. b. Clark, tho Republican
nominee, is still without oppositiou'
and the surface Of the political waters
of Christian county is as calm and
unrufiied as the bosom Of quiet aud
peaceful lake. The people are going
quietly about their business aud
show no signs Of getting excited over
the approaching election. The better
elements of both parties are pretty
well satisfied with the idea of being
represented by good, moral, sober
aud intelligent man like Esq. Clark.
The ringsters Of his own party, who
were forced against their natural In
clinations TO nominate Q man outside
OF their own charmed circle, are
about the only class dissatisfied with
the situation of affairs. Esq. Clark
has made pretty thorough canvass OF
the county, but so far, with d single
exception, we have been spared the
usual windjamming chin-music, for
which let us be duty thankful.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local application, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that lie by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucus lin
ing of the Eusts,hian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness Ia the result, and unless the
Inflammation car. be taken outandthis
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which Is nothing
but an inflamed condition Of the mu-
Gus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness, Caused by
catarrh,) that we cannot cure by

The Southern Negro.

CHATTAsooGA, TENN, July 90
The Trddesman has instituted an in-
quiry with reference 10 the value OF
negro labor in industrial channels in
the south. The inquiries were sent
to 300 leading southern manufacture
ers, representing blast furnaces, roll
ing mills, miscellaneous iron works,
lumber mills, saw mills, etc. Replies
were received which represent 5000
negro employees, of whom 1900 are
skilled. The average wages paid
common negro labor is $l.l0 per day,
aud skilled labor runs from 81 10 to
1925 per day, though several cores
pondents paid colored puddlers,
heaters and rollers as high as "a and
IS per day, and many furnaces pay
as high as $3.50. The replies, with
out single exception, show that
there is no difference between the
pay of whites and blacks for the
same class of work. The manufac-
turers are practically unanimous in
the opinion that for common labor in
the southern states the negro Is more
efficient and useful than the whites,
and, without an exception, they de-
clare themselves well satisfied with
the negro in the factory, and an
nounce their determination to con-
tinue him in his place. The Trades
man adds the condition of the negro
is constantly improving, and as an
industrial factor his usefulness ia no "
recognized by all.

WASHINGTON.
Strong Effort to be Made to Repeal
the Tobacco Tax.
President Harrison Says an Extra Session OF
Congress has not Been Determined
On Yet-Appointments.
To Repeal the Tobacco Tax.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-An active
movement is now in progress to organ
ize the members of congress from the
tobacco growing states into a compact
body that can compel the passage of the
legislation that was denied those states
in the last congress. The movement is
a nom political one and it is Intended to
embrace all Southern congressman, no
matter to what party they belong, who
have an interest in the repeal OF the
internal revenue taxes on tobacco and
fruit brandy. The states most interested
are Kentucky, North Carolina, Virginia
and Tennessee, but all the Southern
states, and West Virginia as well, are
more or less unfavorably affected by
the present law. Interested parties
have been at work ever since con-
gress adjourned devising a plan of
action, and during the week an address
will be sent to every congressman in the
tobacco and distilling districts. This adj
dress Tecites the history OF the last effort
made to secure the repeal, and that it
failed when twO-thirds of the house ia
vOred it. 1t also states that the failure
was notorious, because the speaker
would not recognize anyone to make the
nOIIOu cdlilHS Tue pfOpOStu IepedI DelOIo
the house, and that the speaker did this
because a caucus, the majority in which
was less than third of the whole
house, had declared against such
recognition. The members addressed are
reminded that the question is an econom-
zeal and not political one and asked
not to go in any party caucus. They are
asked not to vote for any candidate for
speaker who will not agree to recognize a
motion considering the proposed repeal.
The inference is that the Southern Re-
publicans will be urged to support Houk
of Tennessee for speaker until definite
assurance is received that whoever is
elected VIII help on the cause.
