long discussion before the committee it
was not between the individuals and
corporations who received the taxes
and the people who paid them, as these
were seldom heard, but between the
representatives of the variously pro-
tected interests, each contending for
higher rates on its own products and
lower on the products of others. This
is what General Hancock meant when
he declared the Tariff question "a local
ISSUE"
The majority give as reason for
their action on the sugar question that
but one eight of the amount Of sugar
consumed is produced in this country,
and imported; therefore it would be
cheaper to pay a bonus to the pro-
ducers of the ! of home raised sugar
to encourage the industry, and import
the other at the cheaper foreign
prices.
On the other hand the minority OBJ
ject to the policy Of partiality and
discrimination also preferring tar

production it encourages grows and
finally vanishes, while the county in

Perhaps no local disease has puzzled
and baffied the medical profession more
than the nasal catarrh. While not i'm
mediately fatal it is among the most dis
tressing and ssdisgusting ills the flesh is
heir to, and the records show very few
or no cases of radical cure of chronic
catarrh by any of the multitude of modes
of treatment until the introduction of
Ely's Cream Balm few years ago. The
