Deafness Can't BE Cured

by local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused byan intamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition
ef the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness tcaused by Catarrhl that
we can not cure by taking Halls Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free.

is converted to coarse clods as soon as it
dries. Plowed too dry the coarse clods
are manufacture by the plow, instead
of the soil being changed to finely
pulverized mass. The farmer, therefore,
will need the exercise of his skill in
avoiding these two extremes. We some-
times have seasons the weather of which
consists largely of an abundance of rain
at one time and of extreme drouth at
another, and the owner of heavy soils
will find a great advantage in thorough
underdrainage, which will give him con-
troll of his fields in early spring weeks
before he could begin the tillage of
ground otherwise saturated with water.
Cultivating and narrowing hoed crops
may result in their injury if performed
while the strong and heavy soil in which
they grow is too wet, compacting it and
causing it to bake when too dry. Re-
ported experiments from some OF the
experiment stations, which have pro-
nounced frequent cultivation of corn and
potatoes positive injury, were merely
giving the results of working in mud, or
at best in oil:packing hard under sur
plus of water.
Some times the crops have been dam
aged by cultivating them half a foot
deep with the plow, which has torn and
cut the horizontal roots which extend
much further from the young plants

than the owner who is cutting them is
aware. Fig. shows the way in which
the horizontal roots have been cut and
broken.
Mixed husbandry requires for its sue
cess a we'll planned rotation of crops,
and these render necessary the division
of the farm into fields. For cheapness
and durability barb wire stands at the
head with farmers generally, but some
losses and injury to animals have been
sustained by not rendering these fences
distinctly visible barriers. This is
easily effected by plowing five-furrow
ditch on each side, and banking up the
earth into ridge under the wires.

figure shows also the coarse and cloddy
nature of this loosened subsoil when
the work has been inefiiciently per-
formed or at the wrong time. With all
these chances for subsoiling to be super
ficially or badly done, it is not surpris-
ing that so many farmers have found it
of little or no benefit.
The defects in draining, as often prac-
ticed, are insufficient depth of the
bitches, defective underground channels
for the escape of the water, and badly
laidout lines for a regular descent The
draining itself of the surplus water can
not do otherwise than benefit the land,
by conveying away the water which the
soil itself can not hold, and leaving be-
hind all that is required for vegetable
growth. The only harm, therefore, in
cutting drains where they are not
wanted, is the useless waste of labor.
Flowing and narrowing may be worse
than useless under adverse circum-
stances. A strong loan plowed too wet

good reason to believe that it will ulti-
mattel invade most of the clover-pro-
ducing regions of the United States.
The adult of the clover-root borer is a
smell, dark-colored beetle. 1t is repre-
sen ted, considerably magnified, at d, in
tho cut This beetle deposits eggs
WI ich hatch into small, whitish Larvae,
or grubs, that bore the roots of the clover
plant as shown at a. When they be-
come full grown as larv@ they look,
when magniticd, like b, and are ready to
change to the chrysalis or pupa (c),
from which in due va they emerge
again as beetles.
The effect upon the plant ASS of course,
most disastrous. With it's Aoots hol-
lowed out as these borers do, it can only
die; and whole fields are often ruined
in this way by these pests.
The only way that has been found
practicable in avoiding the injuries of
the insect is that of plowing the clover
up after the first years cropis gathered.
Prof. l. p. Roberts says that in central
New York the seeded land is moved but
once, the second growth being pastured
off. "Since 1875" he adds, "the clover
root borer has worked the clover to such
an extent that it invariably fails the
second year. This has caused us to
change from five to four-year rota-
tion; namely, hay, corn, oats and
wheat. M. Weed, in Farm
and Fireside.

as an unwarranted assault on the

fuse to look at things through Column

sentation in the National Government
coupled with the practical elimination
of the negro vote by present methods;
or a political treaty or compromise In
politics with the negroes; or o surren.
der to the negro vote; or some legal
and constitutional reduction and re-
adjustment of the suffrage. In the es-
timation of the best thought of the
State the present situation cannot re-
main as a permanent condition. The
whole case comes to the proposition
of using in an open, fearless way the
legal and constitutional powers of the
State.
"The real and substantial interests
of the State indicate that this power
should be extended as far as public
sentiment will permit. A fair and
candid discussion of our situation will
do good. This question has been
cloakcd so long that it will be whole
some to bring it into the light of pub
lie discussion.
"a reduction of suffrage upon some
conditions would involve n decrease
of power in Congress and the electo-
raj college, but the improvement Ill
local government would be ample
compensation for this loss. A Consti-
tutional Convention, dealing with
this question in a statesman way,
will surely improve the condition OF
affairs in the State"
"Do you think the Constitution
should be submitted to the people for
ratification 2"
"This is a question of policy and
expediency for the consideration and
decision of the convention, to be de-
termined in large measure by the
temper and force of the members OF
the convention, the popular conf
dence in them, the character of the
constitution adopted, and the exigen-
cies of the situation at the time. The
precedent in Mississippi has not
been to submit the work of conven-
tions to the people, except in one in
stance in 1869, and that was by the
Republicans, and the polls were sur
rounded on that occasion by Federal
troops"
"Do you apprehend any harm to
the State from holding conven-
tion?"
6" do not. The reliance at last
must rest upon the white people
They will control the conven-
ton, and are just as trustworthy in
as out of convention. If they can
not be trusted to meet in a conven-
ton for consideration and action in
respect to their own affairs, there is
no other quarter to look to for remedy
or relief"

A Card to the Public.

My attention has been called to the
advertising matter issued by Fry &
Ostein of the State Business College,
of Meridian, in many papers of the
State which are full of misstatements
calculated to do the Capital CONNER
cial College great injustice and seri-
ously mislead the public. A sense of
duty to myself and the public, which
is sought to be victimized ,impels me to
this exposure of their author. The
claim is made in bold type that the
State Business College is "The only
Commercial school in the State en-
powered to grant degrees" The SEN
Tor proprietor of that institution, Mr..
w. H. Fry, was employed in the Cap
ital Commercial College as instructor
for nine months and saw the charter
of the same granted by the State in
1886 empowering it with due authority
''to grant diplomas and confer de-
grees," and in his capacity as teacher
had occasion repeatedly to fill out
diplomas to graduates.
He publishes also an alleged edito-
rial endorsement from the New Missis-
sippian, setting forth the statement
that it had just closed very prosper
Gus years work; and possessed a char
ter empowering it to grant COM
mercial degrees-a special privilege
held by no other commercial school
in the State"
The truth is that the State Business
College had at the time been in exist
ence only about four months, and in
stead of this being an editorial en-
dOrsement it was an advertisement
written in and mailed to the paper
from Meridian and inserted and
charged for at regular advertising
rates, Mr.. Fry being the author of the
misstatements and responsible for the
imposition practiced upon the public.
So long as the State Business College
pursues legitimate methods, it will be
a welcome competitor in the field, but
when it transcends the bounds of
honorable rivalry and seeks to build
up a business and reputation upon
falsehoods regarding a rival and glar-
ing fraud practiced upon an unsus-
pecting public, it may depend upon
having the flimsy mask of innocence
torn from it's face, leaving the true
facts and statements revealed irrecOn,
cilable and in all their self-cOndemn-
ing hideOusness.

The Suffrage Question.

We to-day lay before our readers
the very interesting interview with
Capt. Frank Johnston, of Kinds,
touching the Constitutional Conven-
ton. Capt. Johnston comes nearer
getting right down to the marrow of
the suffrage question than any one
who has yet spoken on the subject.
He illustrates what Mr.. Cleveland
said of the tariff and the surplus
that we are not confronted by n thco-
nv. but hy condition. He estimates
that the negro majority-constantly
incrcasing-is already $4,000 over
the whites, and scouting the idea of a
repeal of the 10Th amendment, shows
that whatever change is made in the
suffrage. must affect white and black
alike. Having done this, he further
shows that within this limit, the
State has plenary power to reg
ulutr suffrage, and suggests that
IL IL thib wv
people should realize that nothing of
any value can be accomplished with
ont sacrifice on their part. In short,
if the Convention does anything of
lasting value in regard to suffrage, it
must place it upon a basis that Will
cut off some white men as well as u
great many negroes. and proceed to
build on foundation that is neither
repugnant to the Federal Constitu-
ton nor good morals. Whether that
shall he an educational, property,
tax-receipt, or other qualification, he
leaves it to the craftsmanship of the
Convention to determine.
Capt. Johnston is one of MISSISSIPPI
PTS wisest, most broad minded and
patriotic sons, and the State will be
greatly the loser if he is not num-
bered among the Convention dele
