There is more catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years, doctors pronounced it a local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney y Co,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken internally
in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoOnful.
1t acts directly upon the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system. They Offer

he withdraws from the organization. a

be a wholesome rebuke to the men who
are fusing the national government for
purposes of plumber; whose professions
OF love for free speech and fair count
are belied by their daily practices in the
halls Of Congress, and by their systemat-

THE Blue AND TIE GRAY.

There can be no doubt that the ami
mosities engendered by the war are fast
fading away. The reunions of the Blue
and the Gray continue to grow more
brotherly, year by year. The editor Of
the Cumberland Gap, a Uuion soldier,
saws:
The reunion Of the Blue and the Gray
at Knoxville was a success. A very
large number Of old soldiers of both armies
were in line, and grasped each Others
hands in the friendly clasp Of peace. To
show how well the "Old boys" have
buried their animosities, when the band
PLAYED Dixie, no cheer was heard it
sounded the notes of John Browns
Body. but it brought no hurrah the
notes Of the Bonny Blue Flag iOated
upon the air, but it got no encore
marching through Georgia rolled out Of
the horns, but silence was the result ;
but when good old Yankee Doodle came
bursting out Of the instruments, cheer
after cheer arose, hand grasped hand,
and the peace Of a reunited nation was
ratified.

KENTUCKY'S BEST.

The Elizabethtown News has made a
compilation of Kentucky's best, which
includes the following:
"Kentucky's greatest statesman is
John G. Carlisle.
Kentucky's greatest editor, Henry
Watterson.
Kentucky's best politician, Gov. Nc
Creary.
Kentucky's handsomest man, Gen.
Castleman.
KentuclY's ablest minister, DR.. Broad
us
Kentucky's greatest orator, W. C.P.
Breckenridge.
Kentuclly's best stump speaker, Gen.
Wat Hardin.
Kentucky's greatest farmer, DIR. Clar-
dy.
Kentucky's best poet, Robert Burns
Wilson.
Kentuclsy's brightest wit, J. Proctor
Knott.
KentucIy's greatest actress, Mary IA
varro.
Kentucky's best novelist, Lane Al
len.
Kentucky's greatest railroad man,
Milton Smith.
Kentucky's greatest stock man, J. ].
Alexander.
Kentucky's best conversationalist,
Senator Blackburn"
We differ from the News with regard
TO the minister and poet, while we have
a misgiying as to the railroad man and
farmer. Has the News forgotten Bishop
Dudley and Henry T. Stanton? Again
has Milton Smith achieved half as much
against powerful opposition as Bennett
Young? Farmers are numerous, and
we are not thoroughly posted, but it
strikes Us that Christian county is a
long way from Foxtown.

WHAT THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT
is DOING.

The Administration has changed all
the forms of the Treasury statements so
that comparisons with previous years
are almost impossible, and the facts Of
the existing condition OF the Treasury,
and comparisons, month by month, can
only be made after tedious ciphering.
There is no conceivable reason for the
abandonment of forms that gave full in
formation on their face, and that made
comparisons easy, and the adoption Of
forms that are ineligible only to book
keepers who have plenty OF time, except
that the Administration doesn't want
any comparison made except those pre-
pared by its own agents, and wishes to
discourage the public from trying to
keep track Of the Treasury operations.
1t appears, however, that large pur-
chases OF bonds for the sinking fund
were made III September in order to re-
lieve the stringency in New York, and
in consequence Of this the bonded debt
was reduced S42,3l6,24O during Septem-
Der. This reduction, made for the pri-
mary purpose of relieving some New
York spectators from the tight corners
they had got themselves into, according
to John Sherman's description Of the al
fair, of course raises materially the aver
age monthly reduction Of the bonded
debt since March /, 1889. The Admin
istratiOn, therefore. has seized the or
portunity to scatter over the country a
statement Of the average monthly debt
reductions during the Cleveland Admin
istration and so far under the Harrison
Administration, the latter figures being
greater than the former.
This comparison really means, nothing
for the amount Of reduction of the pub
lie debt depends on the national income
and the national expenditure, and the
Executive can not effect either.
But It was well Tor the Administration
Of humbug to send out this comparative
statement at the beginning of October,
for the average of the debt reduction
under President Harrison will diminish
from this time forward month by month.
Secretary Window announced last month
that he was then buying his last bonds
for some time; in order to relieve the
strain in New York he had bought in
September the bonds he would ordi-
narily be five or six months in buying.
He will therefore not reduce the bonded
debt for several months, and as the Har-
rison Administration gets older and the
debt remains the same that average
monthly reduction that Secretary Win
dom Is advertising so loudly Will grow
smaller and smaller.
By dint Of much addition, division and
silenc; we extract from the reluctant
testimony of Treasurer Huston the ad-
ditional facts that the Treasurer's balance
Of cash available for the reduction of the
public debt diminished $40, go, III dur
ing the month Of September, and at the
beginning Of this month amounted to
only SIS, 22S,IO5 This reduction was
effected mainly by paying out gold, for
during September the gold owned by
the Government decreased S37, S55, S39,
while the silver owned by the Govern
ment decreased only ,l59,323.-Notiol,-

public has been directed entirely to
issues Of bonds. This, we think, &C
counts for the almost entire neglect Of
the stock market. To investors, bonds
naturally offer more attraction, for they
carry with them a lien upon specific
property, and offer a fixed and steady
income. Bankers are ready to negotiate
them, not only for the same reasons, but,
also, because the margin Of profits upon
them is usually well assured. We be-
heve, however, that there exists at this
time, an Over-supply Of securities which
are being carried by bankers. The capt.
talization Of properties has been carried
on too fast until it has exceeded the de-
mand for investment. Foremost in this
particular do any of the railroads of this
country stand. Built with bonds, every
subsequent need has been provided for
by new issues until the roads limit Of
indebtedness has been reached. 1t has
been truly said that the limit TO the
credit OF American railway companies is
confined to their limit to issue bonds.
In this lies their weakness. Therefore,
it is not strange that the public should
not only wish to avoid railway stocks
when preceded by large bonded debts,
but should likewise grow to distTust is
sues of bonds when they are recognized
as being excessive. In view of the de-
creased demand and the unpromising
aspect Of the loan market, the present
would appear ill-timed for the placing Of
new securities, both at home and abroad.
London bankers are thought, also, to
be carrying large blocks of industrial
bonds which the public has not been
disposed to take. 1t is difficult 10 form
any reliable idea OF the stock Of securi-
ties left unsold in the hands Of the issu-
ing houses in our seaboard cities, foI
when money Is scarce, they obtain
financial aid to carry their bonds by
drawing on London at sixty days sight
under open credits. in this way the
Atlantic Ocean may be said to be the
largest bank in the world, whose condl-
| ton will ever remain a tale untold

INDICTMENT OF TIE REPUBLICAN
PARTY.

Or. William Everett, the Democratic
opponent Of the notorious Mr.. Lodge, au-
thor Of the infamous Force Bill, opened
the canvass with the appended remarks !:
The passage Of the Mckinley Tariff
act, and the Customs Administration act,
the proposed Force bill in which your
present representative Is 50 largely inter
ested, the pension legislation, the whole
sale admission Of new States, and the
wholesale seating Of members TO increase
their boosted majority, the autocratic
conduct Of their Speaker, the systematic
endeavor TO prevent the voice OF the mi
nority from being heard, form a list OF
proceedings on the part Of the majority
which, for alternate violence and servili-
~, are quite unprecedented in Congress
