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 inhamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube is 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 its nor

forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in

is believed. devoted exclusively to the
printing of an illustrated magazine. To
establish magazine upon such basis at
the outset was impossible. Only the
rapid growth of the Cosmopohtan's edi-

records, has produced the conditions
which make this departure from estab-
lished prices possible The Cosmopolitan
promises to make the year 1893 the most
brilliant In its history. No other year
has seen such an array of distinguished

Anthony J. Drexel, the banker. OF
Philadelphia, died suddenly on Friday
morning, at Carlsbad, Germany, of apo
plexy. He left this country in Maylast,
hoping to recuperate his failing health in
the waters of the famous Carlsbad Spring
He had been suffering for some time with
kidney troubles, and for several years
past made an annual trip to Europe, with
beneficial results. When he went abroad
this year, he was considerably run down
but no serious results were anticipated by
his family and friends.
President Cleveland left Washington
Friday afternoon for Buzzard's Bay,
Massachusetts. He will be absent from
the capital three weeks or more, his stay
depending upon circumstances. Secretary
Lamont accompanied the President as far
as New York. 1t is understood that the
President will transact only the most ur-
gent public business while at Buzzard's
Bay, and what official announcements are
to be made will be given out at the ex-
ecutiye Mansion in Washington.
The Evans Liquor law of South Car
DINA, by which the state assumes control
of the sale of intoxicants, went into effect
on Saturday. State 'dispensaries" were
opened in only twelve of the thirty-four
counties. Bar rooms in Charleston were
onaned as ,1snal. lint sold only soft drinks
On Friday there was great rush of pur-
chashers of whiskey at cut rates from
wholesale dealers, many of whom are
preparing to move out of the state AS a
result of the law there has been sudden
increase in the jug business, these articles
being seen at many railroad stations,
bearing various labels, from cologne to
vinegar and cholera mixture. The gross
receipts of the "dispensaries" throughout
the state for the first day are said to be
ridiculously small.

HIGH LICENSE for Asbury Park is again
being agaitated. Founder Bradley is re-
ported to be in favor of this measure,
claiming that it will go ia great ways to-
ward abolishing the drug store barrooms
and illegal sale of liquor. There is no
doubt that Mr.. Bradley's motives are good
and that he feels sure of beneficial results
from high license, but there are grave
doubts whether his hopes would be real
lied. Even under its present system, AS
bury PARK is place where a man may
take his family and be sure of not encoun-
tering the vices that are apparent else
where. High license would surely change
this situation.

TUESDAY, JULY 4, 1893.

WnlLE it is premature to attempt to fix
the cause of the catastrophe in which the
British battleship Victoria was rammed
and sunk by her consort. the Camper
down, and the lives of many gallant tars
spent, the consensus of opinion is that
Vice Admiral Tryon, of the Victoria, who
is himself among the lost, was response
BILE for the tragedy by having given an
order for maneuvre which necessarily
brought about the collision, because of
the absence of sea-room. There will be
rigid inquiry, and there can be no favorit-
ism at least with the jury of the world,
which will. as well as the English Ad-
miralty, pass upon the evidence.

A MORNING Democratic newspaper an
nounces that the Presidents action in
calling an extra session of Congress for
August is courageous" and essentially
the result of independent and conscien-
tious reflection" Nonsense. The Presi-
dents action was a precipitate retreat
from an indefensible position. Mr.. Cleve-
land had stubbornly determined neither
to do anything himself nor permit Con-
gress to do anything to check the march
of disaster before September. The pres
sure OF events and the public condemna-
ton of bis selfish and barbarous policy
have forced him to abandon the theory
that the President of the United States
is an autocrat who has right to ruin
thousands of American citizens in order
to carry out his own purposes.
The effect of Democratic rule and the
Administrations refusal to interfere to
protect the public credit has been appall-
ing. The loss to the people since last No
vember has been more than a billion of
dollars. The aggregate liabilities of the
failures for the first six months of 1898
have been sl68.000. 900 as against $62 ,0OO.-
600 for the corresponding period of last
year. On last Thursday terrific panic
in the New York Stock Exchange
panic whose disastrous effects would been
felt to the uttermost parts Of the country
was only averted by the courageous and
patriotic action of five New York banks,
which took out Clearing House certifi-
Gates and released six millions OF money
for immediate use. The same day saw
wheat at Chicago touch the lowest figure
known in third ola century. A general
collapse in the Western metropolis was
only prevented by the prompt and pru-
dent course of Chicago financial institu-
tons.
The demand which was made on the
President for an extra session during the
forty-eight hours before his proclamation
convening Congress was issued was over
wbelming. kilograms and letters de-
manding relief poured in from every
portion Of the country, from trade boards
and chambers of commerce, from bankers
and business men of every class. In face
Of this tremendous protest Mr.. Cleveland
surrendered. His action was practical
confession that he had been utterly
wrong in refusing to exercise his au.
thority for the defense of the country's
interests. 1t amounted to an admission
that the Administration had been essen
TALLY responsible for the loss and damage
and suffering that the past three months
has witnessed. Mr.. Cleveland's Mug
wump flatterers have made him believe
that he was the ruler OF the American peo-
pie. The people have summarily taught
him that he is not their autocrat. but
their servant. II win be well If he re-
members the Iesson.--Nso York Press.

THE pardoning power has been abused
many times, but never more strikingly
than in Governor Altgeld's freeing of the
Anarchists. 1t is natural to say, in COM
menting on this case. that the power to
pardon criminals should not be entrusted
to the Executive in any of our states.
There is much to be said on that side of
the question, but still it must be remem-
bered that there have been fragrant
abuses of pardons in states where the
governor does not exercise the power.
New Jersey, for instance. has Court OF
Pardons, in which the governor has a
vote, and in New Jersey not long ago the
Jersey City ballot box suffers were set
free through the action OF this court

A NEW act, designed to punish offend
ers against the law, will undoubtedly
have an opposite effect unless there is
some amendment to it. The law pro-
vides that every person sentenced to i'm
prisonment at hard labor for any term
not lees than SIX months, must be sent to
the State Prison and that within 20 days
after sentence. Those sentenced to less
than six months will be sent to the coun-
ty jail or workhouse. This law was passed
to enable Mercer county to send prisoners
to the new work house which has just been
constructed, and somebody. during the
absence of Assemblyman Landor, tam
pered with it. Already the State Prison
is overcrowded, and the prospects are
that there will, within few weeks, be an
increase to over 1000 in the number of
inmates. If the State Prison will not
hold the convicts, the courts will be com
PEELED to sentence many offenders to less
than six months imprisonment, and IN
that way many petty thieves will escape
punishment. Keeper Patterson has
asked the Attorney General for an opln-
ion whether he is bound to receive these
prisoners if the prison is overcrowded.

der in Chicago in 1886. His action caused
much surprise and Indignation. An in
teresting question has arisen in connec-
ton with this case, viz: is GOV. Altgeld
a citizen of the United States II is
stated that Mr.. Altgel bases his claim to
citizenship on the allegation that his
father became a citizen while the present
de facto governor of Illinois was minor
child. But nothing has been prodsced SO
far to prove that Altgeld, Senior, whoever
he may have been, took out naturaliza-
ton papers. 1t is not denied that he
was born in Prussia in 1848, and it may
be remembered that many Germans le-
wanted from their country about that time.
1t is to be sincerely hoped. for the credit
of the United States and of the state of
Illinois, that it will be shown conclusive
ly that Altgeld is what his action indi-
cate, thorough foreigner.
