Deafness Cant be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition Of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube gets infamed you
have a 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 it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give one Hundred Dollars

catarrh) that we cannot cure by TAX
ing Halls Catarrh Cure. Send TO.

KENTUCKY.
A Victory in "Old Kentuok'' that
WIN Strengthen the Peoples
Party Exar-harA

1t won't do. It is evident that the
election in Kentucky was a more seri-
GUS blow to the Democratic ring
than even the first dispatches indi-
Gated. The Courier Journal controls
tia Associated Press dispatches in
Louisville, and supplies the agent.
As the returns came in on Monday
night the agent gave the correct in
formation, stating how many men,
bers had been elected by the Alliance.
The Senate of course could not be
changed, as nineteen Senators held
over-mostly Democrats-and nine
teen had to be elected. OF the latter
the Democrats seem to have carried
about one-half. For the House the
alliance made distinct nominations,
some districts having three candi-
dates for the three parties. In many
districts former Democrats were
nominated, who distinctly accepted
the positions as Alliance men; and
had opponents from the regular
Democrats.
Now the Courier ournal classes
the members elect as, Democrats 50;
Republicans II; Alliance II; and the
dispatch reads: "Many Democrats
elected are farmers in sympathy with
the Alliance" The whole of the
former Democrats elected by the
Alliance are placed as Democrats;
and the twelve admitted to be cleo
ted Alliance" are former Republi-
cans. The majority is not only "in
sympathy" but will elect an Alliance
Speaker, and control the Legislature
against the usual partisan and
special legislation, which has been
the rule for fifteen years in Kentucky,
for the advantage OF the corpora
lions and certain other, interests.
This will be OF great benefit to the
masses OF the people, and especially
will farmers and labor interests be
looked after. The Alliance numbers
10000 voters in that State, and
the power that it has welded can be
shown by the adoption OF the Con-
stitution by nearly 100000, though
it was fought by the Courier-J ournal
and about fifty Democratic news
papers, and by all the mossbacks in
the State. The Farmers Alliance
has certainly made havoc in a num-
Der of Republican States. 1t is
equally sure that they have the pow
er and intend to exercise it in num-
Der OF heretofore Democratic States.
They elected in South Carolina a
Senator to take the place of Hamp-
ton. Senator Vance in North Caro-
lima avoided a storm by unequivo-
cally indorsing the Alliance, and was
reelected. Senator George in Miss
issippi has done the same, and has
secured a majority of the Leg;sla-
ture. But this does not wipe out the
antagonism, and it is perfectly as
sured that throughout the South a
very large portion Of the whites will
lead heated compaign next year,
and if the negroes, as is asserted, in
tend to cooperate with them, it is
perfectly sure that several States
will be carried for the Alliance, rem
dering it impossible to elect the Dem.

The following, from the Hector
Mirror, is full OF truth. first because
it is the verdict of a plutocrat that
corporations are the creations OF
law, and second because the com
ment OF the Mirror is just:
Woodstock, Conn, has for several
years been famous for a gathering OF
celebrated persons on the Fourth.
Several speeches are always made by
men of national reputation, which
become a part OF our forensic deliver
les. On that occasion last Saturday
Chauncey M. Depew gave utterance
to the following:
''These are the perils of corpora
tions. But corporations are the
creatures of law, and the creator can
destroy or crush them as he pleases.
When the law making body does not
reflect the sentiment OF the commun-
ity then send an honest man to the
legislature and have the law fixed"
The Mirror adds:
Why hasn't Mr.. Depew in his long
public career done more to avert
those evils and "refect the sentiment
OF the cOmmunity?"
