VOTING BY ELECTRICITY.
1t Is Likely to BE Adopted In Both House
and Senate at Washington.

1t Is Likely to lie Adopted In bOth House
and Senate at Washington.
If the system of call bells to summon
pages in the house and senate at Wash
ington is successful, it is quite likely
that the voting of members of both bod
les may be done by electricity. The idea
is to have buttons placed in each mem
ber's desk. so that by the pressure Of a
finger he can indicate whether he favors,
opposes or declines to vote on any meas
ure. The registering board could be in
full view of the house, and votes would
be counted by the machine which regis
tiers them.
This would do away with the tedious
roll calls and save much time, but it
would not be pleasing to those who de-
sire to filibuster against any obnoxious
measure. The house and senate will
finally come to some such scheme, but
not Immediately. Cincinnati CONNER

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot

There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflammable condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube gets intlamed you have a
sound of imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inllamed condition of the mu.
cous surfaces.

Manufacturers In the south.

The last census bulletin upon the
iron and steel industry of the South
shows that in ten years between 1880
and 1890 there has been a remarkable
growth of these businesses. and that
they have begun to follow course of
concentration, with the result that
the capital invested in blast furnaces
has increased from sixteen millions to
thirty.three millions of dollars. while
the money put into rolling.mills and
stcel.w0rks has grown from eleven
millions to seventeen millions. The
output has increased enormously. and
the quality of the product has greatly
improved. In the amount of capital
invested Alabama is now ''far in the
lead" Virginia is second, and West
Virginia is third; but West Virginia
is close to Alabama in the value of
her iron products, because larger
proportion of her iron and steel is
worked into valuable grades of finish
ed products. In 1880 the South pro.
ducet nine per cent of the pig.iron
yield of the whole country, but in
1890 she produced nineteen per cent.
Alabama shows the greatest increase
in the blast-furnace industry during
the decade, and Jefferson county
that in which Birmingham is situated
lis now the most important IRON
making district in the South. In 1880
there were but two establishments
there. with a capital of one million;
now there are ten such establish.
ments, with capital of almost nine
millions of dollars. Steel making has
made but little progress, the govern.
ment report says. because the South
ern ores are generally unsuitable for
use in the established process of steel.
manufacture. 1t is insisted, however,
that good steel has been made in the
South, though whether it can be made
in competition with the North Is
certainly an open question yet

Gov. Allin's Appointments.

Grand Forks News (dem.): There
will doubtless be some criticism of
Gov. Allin's appointments. There is
one thing the News has to commend
in them and that is sturdy gratitude.
If the Governor |had done anything
less than appoint George B. Winship
to the fattest office in the state-he
would have been ungrateful. The
News knew of Others good friends
who sought this appointment-but it
was the first. month ago, to predict
Winship's appointment-because it
did not believe that Gov. Allin would
prove an migrate like his predecessor.

DIR. Cyrus Edison. ut is such a sim

few people, unless it is case of

yet there are great many cases of

their origin in this neglect of the
simplest precaution of every day life.
