THE wooden consumers OF New Eng

material That is one of the things Mills

THE Albany, N. Y, journal learns
with regret that the Democrats Of
Illinois are not protectionists. The in
formation coming 80 late, one hundred
years indeed after the fact became
known to men of ordinary intelligence,
gives the Journal great and unnecessary
distress. The Democrats OF Illinois never
were protectionists M other Democrats
have ever been protectionists except
spurious breed which has done work for
the Republicans in Pennsylvania and Ohio.

Deafness Can't he Cured

by local applications, as they can not
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is emily one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous
lining OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inhsmed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
formation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out Of ten are caused by
catsrrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition OF the mucus sur
faces.

for any case OF Deafness Caused by

Is terrific. Volcanic eruptions, cy-
clones, earthquakes are awfully and
tremendously picturesque, but scarcely
desirable to emulate in action and eff
feet by the administration OF remedies
which produce convulsion and agony

frame. Such is the effect of the old
fashioned violent purgatives happily
falling more and more into disuse, and
OF which Hostetter's Stomach Betters
is the wholesome, pleasant and far
more effective succedaneum. They
weakened the intestines-the Bitters

Civil Service scandals.

There seems t. be no d lubt that the
charges which have been made from tine
to time against the civil service commi sion
will be investi gated. The COMMITTEES to
which the charges have been referred have
had one meeting. d Will have another
next Monday. At the first meeting the
civil service commissioners were pre- ent,
aad expressed a strong desire to have al in
vestigation. Il would hardly be right not
t. crafty that deire. Commissioner Roose-
welt !, particularly anxious for a c lancs 70
tell what he knows about the commissi IN
and its work, but he wants it understood
commission whea the gravest OF the
ALLEGED offenses with whic the CO nmissiOn
is charged was committed. That alleged
offense is that a man named Campbell,
brother-in-law of Commissioner Lyman,
and an employe of the commission. copied
some exami alton papers and disposed OF
them 81 that they reached the hands Of a
man who was preparing applicants for the
civil service examination, and that after
this act became known he was promoted
to better paying office in the gift of the
commission. If tire man Campbell did
what he is charged with having done, and
was promoted after his off ense was known,
the commissioners who are re sponsible for
his promotion ought certainly to be re
quested to resign. Comm ssioners who
would retain such a man are not the kind of
reformers that win the confidence Of tine
people.
There are several other charges, one of
them being that while { ere were hundreds
Of men aid women on the elig BILE list,
clerks were appointed to positions in the
civil service bureau who had yer under
gone an examination. If this charge is
true it would seem is if the com mission had
very little respect for the civil service laws
or civil service reform. 1t is probable,
however, that it isn't true. The enemies of
civil service reform are constantly making
charges that are intended TO bring itsinto
disrepute. Rumors which, when investi-
gated, are shown to be unfounded
are stated as facts, aud in that
way false impression Of the commis-
sion and its work gets abroad. An investi-
gatiol, however, will do good. 1t will give
the civil service commissioners a chance to
tell their side of the story. If it should be
shown, however, that they have been dere-
lict in their duty they should DO required to
step aside and let men have their places
who can Treve t civil service reform from
falling into disrepute.
