Sight Is Priceless.

Mr.. David Norton, of St. Paul,
Mimi, states that his son was entire
ly blind and had be kept in dark
room an entire year and treated by
the best physicians Of the city to no
purpose, and all had given him up,
saying he would never be any better,
when they began using what has
proven to be the finest remedy in the
world for the cure of Inflammation,
namely-Dr. Hale's Household Oint-
ment It was applied directly to the
boys eyes, which soon began to i'm
prove, and to-day his sight is entirely
restored, and he is enjoying perfect

Education al.

The annual Teachers Institute fol
this county will convene in this city
on the 4th Monday in September,
and will be in session five days.
Prof. R. H. Carothers, Of Louisville,
will conduct the Institute. We ex-
pect and hope that every teacher will
come prepared to take an active part
in the exercises; we want no drones
among us. We will assign the SUBJ
jects to the teachers soon and shall
expect something from them. The
conductor will be to the Institute
what the teacher should be to the
school. We are preparing a pro-
gramme for the night exercises.
We were in hopes that an ADLER
pen than ours would have written up
the commencement exercises held in
the city school building on the
evening of July 31st, but we have
waited in vain.
There was large audience present
and from the expressions and COM
mandatory remarks that have been
made we believe every one present
went away delighted. Every one
that took part in the exercises did
well and we have heard nothing to
the contrary.
The following is list of the grad
yates: Mr.. William Parent;
Misses Lulie and Sallie Grain, Of
Forks of Elkhorn; Miss Hannah
Phythian, of Leestown district; Miss
Agnes Stivers, of Antioch district
and Miss Mabel Hancock, of the
Elmville district.
Miss Hancock having made the
highest average in the examination
was presented the gold medal and
Miss Phythian, the next highest,
silver one.
Now teachers let us have class Of
% for 1892. 1t can be done if you
will do your duty.
We would warn the teachers if
they would have legal contract to
see to it that the trustees meet as
body and transact their business.
We were compelled to annul con-
tract this week on that point, also on
the point that the contract was
signed before the 1st day of July, and
before the newly elected trustees had
been qualified. Be careful.

"Prices,' says The American Wool
Reporter, ''are now at the lowest point
of the year. and it adds, there is as
yet no evidence of stiffening in prices"
The same journal, although an advo-
cate of protection, makes the following
pungent remarks on wool prices in its
editorial columns;
THE wool growers who have been
looking to the tariff as the panacea for
most mo- woefully disappointed. High
tariff on wool has done them no good
anu v"o-- ..-hn vera the most clamor-
Gus for the enactment of tho tariff law,
the Ohio and Michigan wool growers,
have been the least benefited. 1t has
worked, in fact, to their detriment
SIT is easy enough for high tariff ad-
vocates to figure out what the course of
the market ought to be, but the test of
experience has demonstrated that con-
sumers of wool are buying it on its
merits They will continue to buy for
eign wool even at a higher cost per
secured pound than domestic fieeces, for
the reason that ultimate results are
more profitable and satisfactory A
mixture ofAustralian woolwith territory
yields better results to manufacturers
of fine goods than domestic fleeces, and
while this continues to be the case i'm
portations of Australian wool will not
be checked by high tariff laws. The
latter, as far as wool is concerned,
have been demonstrated to be a de-
fusion and snare, deservedly
involving those who were the
most instrumental in securing their

troops allowed to retreat to Coal
Creek, where special train was fur

Knoxville to await further orders
from the governor. While awaiting
the train at Coal Creek men and women
called on the troops offering the hospi-
tality of their humble homes, as it
was a well-llnown fact that the troops
had even Jared worse than the majority
OF the miners, but, as they could not
leave the ranks this kind offer could
not be accepted. The troops and con-
victs were taken to Clinton by a special
train and turned over to a through
train at that point and the extra
crew returned to Coal Creek where they
found another surprise. The min
ers, having started in their work,
stopped at the Knoxville Iron Co s
mine, where 1875 convicts were employ
ed, and called upon Capt Chumbley,
requesting that he quietly release the
convicts from the mines where they had
been placed and save bloodshed, which,
after a slight objection, was agreed to,

Here the dealer produced four for

some of the cheap knives made in Sol
niger, Germany, that the domestic
manufacturers had so much to say
about during the tariff hearings The
Importation of this particular grade of

duty, and were able to sell it to the

ing cheap, and very neat little knife,
it was great fsvorite with school boys
and girls. But very soon they will find
that they can no longer buy this knife
at all; they will not even see it in the
hardware stores. The reason is the in
creased cost under the present tariff.
Il would newcosf ns s2 to i1nports we
should sell il to the jobber at $50; he
to the retailer at So. IS; and the retailer
would no longer be able to sell it as
25-cent knife. 1t could not be sold as a
5O-cent knife; and at any price between
the sale is spoiled.
"We have not ordered any of these
knives since the new tariff came in, and
there is no American knife to take their
place. The domestic manufacturers do
not even try to make knife of this
kind which will retail at 25 cents. 1t
can't be done here, They have tried to
make knife similar to the largest of
these four which you see in my hand,
but they found that they could not do
it for less than Sl.90 dozen. and they
quit making it, as at this price the
knife could no longer retail at 25 cents"
The old duty on pocket knives was

duty of u cents 80 cents, 81 and 50

the duty equal to from "a to 116 per cent
