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 infamed condition OF
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube gets inhamed
you have 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 its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inHamed condi-
ton of the mucous surface.
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.

WHAT WOULD 1T DO WITH THEM7

WHAT WOULD TT DO WITH THEM?
As a means for relieving the present
stringency in financial affairs. the silver
men are calling upon the government
to coin the vast amount OF silver bullion
in the treasury vaults into dollars and
put them afioat. There is enough oft
ii coined at the present ratio of sixteen to
one to make upwards of 175,O00. 900
standard dollars, and they argue that
such an amount of money added to the
present volume of currency would pro-
duce an abundance for all purposes. and
the currency famine would be at an end.
Admitting, for the sake of the argument
that it is lack of currency in circulation
that is the cause OF the existing hard
times, and that the silver dollar is the
best possible form Of money with which
to transact business, how would these
dollars get inro circulation The fifty
first and fifty-second congresses made
larger appropriations for various gov
ernment purposes than any of their pre-
decessors-about a billion dollars each
and notwithstanding these extraordi-
nary expenditures the government has
met every demand promptly and practi-
cally with gold. By what means then
the advocates of this proposition expect
to get the silver out of the treasury and
into general circulation does NOT appear:
And the same reasoning would apply to
the issue of government notes.-the print
ing of an unlimited amount by the gov
eminent would afford no relief so long
as the government is in position to pay
all demands without their use. There
seems to be but one way to get them out
of the treasury, and that is by loans
directly to the people-one OF the widest
ever suggested.

SECRETARY MoHLER, of the state agri-
culture, has issued an appeal for seed
wheat and money with which to buy it,
for farmers of Western Kansas. The APP
peal states that the wheat crop is a
total failure in that portion of the state.
He says that all the farmers in Western
Kansas whose wheat crop is failure
are worthy Of help, for all who cannot
live their leave. The appeal adds that
the popular opinion that Western Kan.
sas is not adopted to the growth OF
wheat is erroneous. The worlds fair
report recently published by the state
board of agriculture relative to large
wheat yields reported shows the average
yield per acre for the western third of
Kansas to be thirty three bushels. and
reports show that in three out of the
four last years this same section shows
as large yield per acre as the eastern
third of Kansas, and a larger yield per
acre than is reported for Illinois and In
diana.

PRESENT indications point to the prob
ability, amounting almost to certain
ty, that st. Cloud will secure both land
Office appointments. Notwithstanding
the rule laid down by the administration
early in its accession to power, that no
re-appointments would be made Of off,
GERS under the former administration,
the friends of Mr.. Macdonald seem very
confident that there will be no applica-
tion of this rule to this individual case,
bnt that the genial editor of the TIMES
will again be rewarded by the receiver
ship. The rule was senseless one at
best, and the HERALD certainly will con-
graduate the administration in its good
sense in suspcnding it in this instance.
Mr.. Macdonald is an offensive partisan
of the most aggravated type, and as
such has earned recognition by the great
civil service reform party whose cause
he has so ably and efficiently cham
pioned. His methods were and are dis
tinctively democratic-not too highly
tinctured with scrupulosity. but wisely
adjusted to the field of his labor. The
Office is remunerative one, and certainly
a man deserves good pay for that quail
ity of service. But why St. Cloud should
claim both Offices, and thus without any
desire to weaken the claims CT Mr.. Brue-
ner, the probable appointee for the
registership, it is difficult to understand,
except in the light of that city's political
history-or rather the biographies OF
her distinguished politicians. They al
ways know good thing when they see
it, and they are so patriotic that they
do not like to see good thing go else
where If they can prevent it.

More stringent immigration laws are
needed for more considerations than one
and this fact is now more strikingly evil
dent than when activity prevails. Thou.
sands of workingmen cannot find en-
ployment and yet the tide does not seem
to ebb. Thousands are coming every
week to swell the great army OF the idle,
and aggrevate the unfortunate condition.
1t is remarkable fact that nine-tenths
of the men who have been engaging in
riotous demonstrations in the cities OF
New York and Chicago are of foreign
birth, and came to this country for the
purpose of improving their condition,
and it is from this element that the most
trouble arises. 1t is a sad comentary on
the looseness of our immigration laws,
which admit a class which threatens the
very foundation of our political system.

THE Indications continue to increase

confidence. and it shows that the tide is
gradually rising above the low water
mark reached some weeks ago to the
normal level. Gold is pouring steadily
into the country from England, and the
volume of wheat and other grain exports
continues large enough to ensure the
continuance OF the import gold move

ferent parts of the country come
announcements that important indus
tries which have been temporarily shut
down have resumed or are about to re-
sumo operations. The full effect of the
business depression has not yet been fully
realized. Some more business houses

to the prolonged strain upon their credit
and resources, for the relief which is
promised by the slowly improving con-
ditiors may come TOO late to avert the
necessity of more temporary suspen.

Stearns county has made great
record at the worlds fair in the matter
of prize horses. Minnesota so far has
captured 21 first premiums in horses and
cattle, of which N. P. Clark. of st. Cloud,
has won 10, he winning the sweepstakes
for stations with Prince Patrick. 2
The second, third and fourth premiums
will bring the total up to near so. No
state, unless it be Illinois, can match
this record.
In Clydesdales, N. P. Clark took three
second and one fourth premiums. His
collection of two stations and three
mares under four years won second
premium, and his two-year and one
year old stations. "The Governor and
prince Choice" did the same. His
yearling stallion, 'Ingrams Heir" was
fourth. The two last classes were for
special premiums offered by the
Clydesdale Association.
There were special classes for Clydesdale
mares as well as stations. in half of
which N. P. Clarke's horses were entered
His three-year-old mare. Miss Stanley
took first premium, valued at $3.50, and
his yearling, May MacGregor," was
fourth in her class.
Mr.. Clark achieved his browning
triumph by winning two gold medals
offered by the American Clydesdale
Association. These were for che best
display of five head of ClydesdaIes under
4 years old, the get of one sire, and for
the best 10 head of any age, the get OF
one sire. Clark's successful 10 were colts
by MacGregor, they defeating those OF
Robert Holloway. His successful FIVE
head were Ross MacGregor, MacHenry
MacCash Etspett, MacGregor and
Macs Princess. In the best display Of
five head OF yearling Clydesdales Mr..
Clarke took second rank. In addition
to the gold medal for the best 10 head a

Taking Napoleon To ST. Helena.
The Century has just come in possess
ion of one OF the most unique and import
ant historical documents OF the age. 1t
is record of the daily life of Napoleon
Bonaparte on board the English ship
which bore him into captivity at St,
Helena, as contained in the hitherto
unpublished journal of the secretary Of
the admiral in charge. The reports Of
many conversations held by the admiral
with the deposed Emperor regarding his
important campaigns are given. with
great fullness. and there is much about
the bearing and the personal habits Of
Bonaparte during the voyage. The
Memoirs of Las Cases contain the story
of the Emperor's deportation as told by
Frenchman and follower; this diary
is an English gentlemaa's view of the
same memorable journey, and of the
impressions made by daily contract
with the man who had had all Europe
at his feet.
The diary will be published in early
numbers of The Century.

THIS is to be decidedly an off year in
state politics. Out of the forty-four
states in the Union only thirteen:will
hole state elections-Iowa, Kentucky,
Maryland, Massachusetts,, Missouri,
Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, Ohio.
Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Virginia
and Wisconsin. all Nov. 7th. Iowa,
Massachusetts,, Ohio. Wisconsin and
Virginia alone will elect full state tickets.
New York elects both branches of the
legislature and all the state officers with
the exception of governor, and also dele
gates to the constitutional convention.
The other remaining eight states will
choose judges or legislatures. Only three
of these legislatures will elect United
States senators-Iowa, successor to
James F. Wilson; Kentucky, successor
to William Lindsay and Virginia, a sue
cessor TO Eppa Hunton, appointed to fill
out the unexpired term left vacant by
the death of Senator Barbour. Of the
remaining thirty-one states all will hold
their general elections in 1894 except
Florida, which has no general election
until 1896. and Louisiana. whose gen.
eral election is also in April OF the same
year. Montana and Mississippi also do
not elect state officers until 1895.
