opsned 5y Democratic congress The
question ought to be settled IN business
manner. There vas safe and easv way
cut Of the difficulty. There vas at peesea,
deficiency in the revenues ard igscfeas-
iag expenditures. There were three
mems of relieving the treasury, any of
which would suffice. The frss was TO re-
duce salaries . per cent, including nsenl.

sugar. which wonld provide SIS. COZ ooa. a
further increase of the whisky tar to 81. -
gallon, which would furnish so, oo1. .0oo.
m increase Of the tax on beer TO s.. and
duty on tea and coffee. A tax ~ one-ienth
OF cent per cup on tea and coffee would
yield revenue OF $oa.on00. The third
method was by negotiating a short-tima
loan. In speaking of the coinage Of silver
Harter called attention to the fac, that in
fwenty-four hours the value nj SILVER in
the treasury had fallen $1,000. COO
The papers today. - said Ssbsey of PENN
sylvania. interrupting Har,er. announced
that silver had touched the lowest point in
history, and the same papers showed that
wheat was never 80 low. Wheat and sill
yer have maintained parity. The gentle
man from Ohio told the houa last simmer
tnat repeal of the Shermau4aw would be
followed By revival OF prosperity and
high prices"
And today we see the resnlt of his
prophecy. added Bland, supplementary
TO Sib,ey's remark.

sequences at least, /" replied Harter, turn

You don't know that" replied Bland,
"and We do know the result of your proph-
ecy."
Hartsr created some amusement. By ref
erence TO the manner in winch the Demo-
ocratic party was delineated in the comic
papers as jackass. He thought il was
perfectly fair, perhaps, for the Republican
papers to portray the Democracy as jack
ass, but did not see why, when PROPOSE
tson like the Bland bill was brought into
the house Democrats should flap their ears
and bray to show they were jackasses.
kilgore of Texas, who made the con-
.clading argument, coniended that IL the
government was in need of money it
would better coin the silver seigniorage
than borrow money and pay interest upon
the loan. Without completing his speech
kilgo-e yielded to motion that the COM
mittee rise.

port of that committee on the Holman

A DECIDED SUCCESS.

'The Masqueraders," an Oper-
eta, by Mr.. Will A. Mccartney, was
presented to one of the largest and
most appreciatiye audiences of the
season, at Ghio's opera house last
evening, with Misses Mamie and
Cuggie Hynson, and MeSsrs. W. A,
Mccartney, Ben Williams and EN-
met Goss in the cast.
BY universal verdict of its hear
ers the Masqueraders" was pro-
nounced a musical treat, of rare ex-
cellence, the rendition of which, by
amateur talent, was almost fault
less, each character being ably pre-
sented, by its impersonator. The
music was all that could have been
desired.
Equally as pleasing as the Oper-
retta, itself, were the special fea-
lures of the entertainment, both
vocal and instrumental Aside
from establishing the title of our
local talent, to a well earned repu-
tation, for the highest order of am
ateur musical excellence, "the Mas.
queraders, literally covered its COM
poser, Mr.. Mccartney, with musical
glory,
To each of the several members
of the cast is due a generous share
of the public applause achieved by
them collectively, each having con-
tributed his, or her, full share, to-
ward the general success. The en-
tire audience united in according to
the participants full need of pop
ular applause, so fully merited.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

By local applications, as they car
not reach the. diseased portion Of
the ear. There is only one way tc
cure deafness, and that is by con
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition Of
the mucous lining of the Eustachiar
tube. When this tube gets infam.
ed, you have a rumbling sound OF
imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the re.
suit; and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re.
stored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in.
famed condition Of the mucous sur
faces. e
