Parson Ratiiff wasn't we'll posted on
how matters stood down here in Lin
coin or he wouldn't have touched so
hard On the Prohibition question in
speech. He didn't know that a good
many negroes had been induced by
third party men to register this year
in expectation that another local OPP
ton election would be held in this
county. He didn't know that.--Lin-
coin County Times
This is the first we have heard since
the local option campaign of 1886, of an
attempt by anti -prohibitionists toregis-
tea negroes in this county fol- the OBJ
ject stated, and eau And no one so far
to confirm the Times statement. How
ever, as the Times has never been able
to conceal its sympathy with the anti
crowd, we are perfectly willing to con
cede it ought to know what it is talk
ing about. There is one thing, though,
that needs eApla;nino, If the wicked
Prohibition Populists hass aeen
inducing the negroes to register. we
don't understand why the registration
books show that there are only three
more negroes registered in the county
than there We're two years EGO, while
the increase in whites is 233.

subject of the Sherif's and tax-collec-
tors bonds ought to be passed upon
and dealt with as the plain letter of
the law contemplates. The time for
collecting taxes will soon be here again,
and if it becomes necessary for the
Board to declare the office vacant "a
necessity we hope Sheriff McNair, for
whom we entertain the kindliest feel
ings personally, will be able to obviate
"a new Sheriff would have no surplus
time in which to make his bond before
the regular tax-collecting season be-
gins Oct. 1st.
A concluding word. The Board has
been so lax hitherto in the discharge
of its duty regarding this subject as to
excite the suspicion that it. will still
further delay or plaster the matter
over by accepting almost any sort of
bond tendered-even one of ''straw."
This, however, is a point the people
have right to demand shall be rigid
ly guarded.
Sheriff McNair was seen to-day and
said he was making his bond and
would have a good one when the Board
met.

There is only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin

this tube gets intlamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases

GEN. WEAVER NOMINATED BY DEM
OCRATS.

The rank and file of Southern Dem
ocrats, who never read or hear but one
side of politics and swallow like young
birds in the nest everything the Dem
ocratic politicians and newspapers tell
them, probably do not know to this
good day that in the campaign of 1892,
while Gen. James Bandit Weaver, as
the Southern Democratic press delight
ed to stigmatize him, was being rotten
egged by the Democratic hoodlums of
Georgia, and caricatured as a common
chicken thief,-that the Democrats of
five Western States, by sanction of the
National Democratic Executive Com
mittee, were supporting him for Presi-
dent in preference to Cleveland. In
Kansas, Nevada, North Dakota, Idaho,
and Colorado, the Democrats decided
to support Gen. Weaver and put out
no electoral ticket, and as result of
this policy, Cleveland received less
than 1000 votes in all five of these
States put together. This is history.
Within the past week Gen. James
Bandit Chicken Thief Weaver has re-
ceived fresh endorsement from the
immaculate but ever-inconsistent De
mOcracy.
+ About two months ago Gen. Weaver
was nominated for Congress by the
Populists of the It'll Iowa district and
accepted. On the Sth inst. the Demo
Gratis of that district held Conven-
ton at Council Bluffs and endorsed
Gen. Weaver as their choice for Con
gress by vote of y to 20. Every
county voted to endorse Weaver but
one.
The honest and well-meaning Demo
cratic masses in Mississippi should
make note of these facts and bear
them in mind hereafter when they hear
their party leaders and papers berat-
ing the Populists and Gen. Weaver. If
there ever was in this Government a
party which has shown itself to be des-
titute of fixed political principles, that
party is the Democracy.

''The publication of the names of the

on the bonded officer. 1t is his duty to
