We are sorry to see that our Post
master General has drawn the lines 80
close on the Alliance, for we have some

fill the position Of postmaster as well
as any that are out the Alliance. We
think it is step for a longer division

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an irhamed con-
dition ofthe mucous lining Of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, snd when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free,

PALMETTO PINE TOP WRISKEY.
Gov. Tiilman Gets the Courts to Order that
the Trade Mark Be Registered.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-Tillman's
Palmetto brand Pine Top whiskey has
been laughed at, but the South Caro-
lima Governor has evinced ''get there"
capacity which may yet make the dis
pensary goods leading article in the
LIQUOR market. To bring themselves
within the letter of the law the South
Carolina authorities shipped 8 case of
the Palmetto whiskey to Canada,
where it was sold at a nominal price.
Having thus established the trade OF
the State with foreign country, Gov.
Tillman applied to the United States
Patent Office to have the Palmetto
trade mark registered. The Commis-
sioner of Patents rejected the applica-
tion with emphasis and refused re-
hearing. Nothing daunted, the Cover
nor took the case into the courts, con-
tending that the commissioner was
only an executive officer, who had to
obey the order to register trade mark
which was not clearly an Infringement
upon some one previously registered.
Judge Bradley Of the District Su-
preme Court has sustained this conten-
ton and issued an alternative injunc.
ton commanding the commissioner of
patents to register the Palmetto brand
before next Saturday or show cause
why be refuses to do 80. AS the Com
missioner already shown his "cause on
q demurrer, which has been overruled,
this decision is probably final.
NOT SETTLED YET.
WASHINGTON, October THE cele-
brated Palmetto State trade mark case
came up for hearing before Judge Brad
ley to-day in the Supreme Court Of the
District of Columbia. Commissioner
Seymour, instead of obeying the alter
native mandamus previously issued by
the Judge, came into court by his coun-
sci, Assistant Attorney General Hall Of
the patent office, and T.. 81. Campbell,
law clerk, and attempted to show cause
why be should not register the trade
mark. Beyond the objections stated on
their demurrer, which was overruled at
a former hearing, they introduced little
new, however, and counsel for the State
of South Carolina, are confident, there.
fore, that the decision of the court will
be in their favor.
Judge Bradley, realizing the impor-
tance of his utterances on this very in
teresting question, merely announced
that be would take the matter under
consideration for the purpose Of formu-
lating his decision, and would notify
counsel on both sides when he was
ready to deliver it.
The contention in the case centres
upon the powers of the commissioner
of patents to 60 behind the applications
presented to him, and attempt to de-
eide as to who is entitled to registra-
ton. AS the relators state in their
brief, no dispute has arisen or exists be-
tween the applicant and the patent Of
flee as to any fact calling for evidence,
aud the refusal of the office to conform
to the request Of the applicant is made
to rest solely upon legal grounds, viz:
construction, which the office has
undertaken to put upon statute.
