line.
Mrs. Sam X. Rank and daughters Viva

left" candidates realized at a late hour
that they were not in it and the victor
ious ones are smiling ready for fine next
degree Of hand shaking.
Mr.. and Mrs. VI. Blain and sons, Mess

mer. The boys brought with them a

Sirocco, beg leave to borrow the loan
OF large slice Of your nerve and wit to
enable me to likewise demand two or
three columns Of ouI Editors valuable
paper criticising and ridiculing my neigh

OF it, even your good old farmer dare not
do so harmless a thing as ride or drive
his favorites "Buck and Berry" to town
without being writ up" It's really"dan-
gerous TO be safe" in your neighborhood
and you, be you, he, she or it,need some
thing or some body to stop your mad
career before il is eyerlastingly too late.

THE NEWS is free to admit that it was
very much deceived in the result Of the
Judges race. We didn't shed tears, as
it is said that our young friend Frank
Beavin did, when he learned of his de-
feat, but we came devilish near it. How
ever, at this writing we have fully re-
covered and bow gracefully to the will
of the majority. The ticket is a strong
one from top to bottom and We feel more
than confident as to its success in
November. Now let every Democrat
put on his fighting clothes and keep
them on until the second Tuesday in
November, and victory will be ours.

at them.
The fur will fly when Owen Cunning
ham and Carlt Richardson get to chasing

of qualifications, can now size this ticket
up and compare it with their own.
1t is said that some of the bottle hold
ers at Hardinsburg became so enthused
that they wore their spectacles crooked
and looked cross-eyed.
1t may be easy enough to get a drink
Of whisky on Sunday, but the invariablt
expression of those who tried it on cleo
ton day was "Blast the luck"
The election officers of one precinct in
the county took the pains to fill out al
the blank forms in their ballot look
sign their report and oath of office, anC
then burn the book.
Joe Buzby tells it on Bill VESSEL
(Tammany,) that at the NJ. p. Mattingl!

that they all, to steer, were at the cleo
ton and voted as he had requested.

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 con-
dition Of the mucous lining OF the Eu-
staehian tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumblng sound or
imperfect hearing, and when il is entire

less the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condi-
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever /;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by ca
tarrhi which is nothing but an inhamed
condition OF the mucous surfaces.

THE BvRLlNoroN's NEW LINE

To the Northwest-CompIetio of the Wy
oming Extension to billings, Mont
A new short line to Montana, North
ern Idaho and Puget Sound points is
created by the completion of the Bur
lington's extension to Billings, Monta-
ma
Connection with the Northern Pa
cific system has been made and
through service to the principal cities
of the Northwest was established Oc-
tober 2Sth.
The saving in mileage which this
new line effects, is remarkable. Hele-
ma is brought 295 miles nearer Omaha
1856 miles nearer Kansas City and 219
miles nearer St Louis than heretofore.
An even mo-c favorable condition of
affairs exists in so far as Spokane Is
concerned. The mileage to Tacoma
and Seattle from Missouri River points
is also considerably lessened. although
not to the same extent as to Spokane
and Helena.
The new line is equal to anything in
the country. 1t is substantially built,
laid with heavy steel rails, splendidly
ballasted and runs through n section
of country which is full of interest. 1t
will be operated in accord with the
Burlington's well-known policy OF
Offering the travelling public the best
there is. Solid vestibuled trains Of
sleepers and free chair cars run daily
to and from Billings. affording un-
equaled service to Denver. Lincoln,
Omaha. st. Joseph, Kansas City, st.
Louis. Chicago. and. in fact, all points
east, west and south.
In bringing this new line to public
attention. the management of the Bur-
lington Route feels sanguine that 1t is
only necessary TO have its attractions
and advantages properly known to as
sure for it the same measure of popu-
larity accorded other portions OF this
company's system of railroads.
