A False Diagnosis.

La grippe is confounded by many per- sons with severe attack of catarrah, which in some respects resembles the former. These individuals suffer severe ly with pain about the forehead, eyes and ears. with soreness in the throat
 and stoppage of the nasal passages, and in fact, are incapacitated for work of any kind for days at a time. These are catarrhal sufferers. Ely's Cream Balm has been used with the best re suits in such cases. The remedy will give instant relief au21 St eod1tw

WHERE WILL ooRBETr BEe
Difficulty Has Arisen as to Where He
 Will Play Ball or Umpire Friday.

A few days ago the New Haven Carnival association announced that James J. Corbett would umpire game to be played Friday at Savin Rock be- tween the Edgewood and Milford teams. Now some doubt seems to have arisen as to where Champion Corbett is to umpire next Friday The man. ager of the Edgewoods announced yes- terday that neither would Corbett um- pire at Savin Rock on that day nor would the Edgewood team play there. He says besides, that James J. Corbett will play first base and Joe Corbett shortstop for the Edgewood team at the Edgewood field next Friday in a game with the Victors of Bridgeport The following has been given out as the contract between W. T. Brady, manager for Corbett, and the Edgewoods:
 New York, August 19, 1895.
 This agreement made and entered into on the above date between William A. Brady and P. R. Griest, by which the said W. A. Brady agrees to furnish the services of James J. Corbett and Joseph Corbett to play baseball in the city of New Haven, Friday afternoon. August 23

 President Southard of the Carnival company said yesterday that in his negotiations with Corbett a telegram was received from MT. Brady saying that Corbett would surely play. There was then some trouble with the Edge woods over the terms for the game, and it was understood that the team would give a definite answer Monday evening, but instead of this, he says, two members of the Edgewood team went to New York yesterday and in- duced MT. Brady to sign a contract to have the Corbetts to play at West vile MT. Southard says that MT. Brady probably acted in good faith, thinking that he was contracting for the same game concerning which he had been previously approached. He fur ther says that it is not at all certain that Corbett will be at Westville next Friday.

SHERMAN'S IDEA.

Senator Sherman thinks that congress will not indorse the Carlisle plan of call ing in the greenbaeks and increasing the bonded debt. He thinks that the drain on the gold reserve can be stopped with out retirement of the non-interest bear ing treasury notes. In his speech last month at Massillon he said:
 "The remedy proposed by Carlisle in recent speech in Boston, apparently with the approval of Cleveland, is to retire the greenbacks by the issue of bonds, and thus saddle the government with the interest on $346 1000, ,000 of bonds. This is not the worst of it. The mass of silver cer- tificates and treasury notes can then be redeemed only in silver dollars and this meaus the silver standard alone. The only way they propose to prevent this is by the sale of more bonds to redeem these notes and certificates, thus convert ing all our currency into interest-bearing bonds and leaving us no paper money eX- cept national bank notes. So radical a change in our financial system can only result in a great loss to the government in the large increase of the interest-bear- ing debt, and in wild disturbance of the industries and commerce of our country. Fortunately, the incoming congress Is republican. It will no doubt provide ad- ditional tax or duties to meet current ueHcleIlCleS, pfeSeFNe lntdcl LHe SOlu re- serve. and maintain at par with gold all forms of money, whether of coin or pa- per-
 There is little room to doubt that the defeat of the democratic party at the re- cent elections was due to a want of con- fidence in the ability of MT. Carlisle to safely carry out his proposition of retir- ing the greenbacks and converting them into interest bearing bonds to be used as a basis for new national banks. The people are opposed to the destruction of the treasury notes and are radically op- posed to an increase of the national debt They saw plainly that the Wilson tariff if adopted would have resulted in a still greater than the present deficit and that to adopt the currency plan of Mr. Carlisle would so restrict the currency as to im- peril all business. Hence it was that they said to MT. Sherman and his followers: ''If as you say, you republicans can make the greenbac1s floating and at the same time preserve the gold reserve intact, we will give you an opportunity to try It."
 This is the meaning of the recent cleo tion and this is all of 1t The local squab- bles affected the result no doubt, but the general result must be attributed to the destruction of silver as standard money and the consequent necessity, as imag- ined by the president and his followers, of replacing the treasury notes with a new bonded debt of $500 900 000

POLITICAL FRIENDS.

A few months before he died Horatio Seymour said to one of his friends, Dwight Lawrence, of New York:
 Dwight, feel that l am near the end of my career, and I want to tell you something. I have had a great deal to do win politics and with politicians in my time, and as I look back over the past I can clearly see that the best friend ships of my life have been formed in poi itics. It is in politics that I have met the manifest men, the most generosity. These friendships have been enduring, too; many of them have continued throughout life. I believe politics bring out the best there is in man. It teaches the narrow man to be broad the selfish one to be generous. This is true, be- cause friendships are essential to suc- cess. In that field of activity one must have friends or he can't get on, and if he wants friendships he must deserve them. I would not advise any young man to stay out of politics because of the danger of being demoralized. If he is the right kind of man it will do him good.'

the polls rather than vote their party ticket. Others under the heat of passion have voted the opposing ticket and re- gretted it at their leisure. It is a mili- tary law to hang a deserter in order that the ranks of the army may not be de- pleted under the penalty of death. But in civil life right and justice reigns su- preme in the mind of every man, and the hardest criminal is considered innocent until his guilt is established. and even then the law gives him the benefit of a reasonable doubt as to his guilt or inno- cence. Party disloyalty is the common charge now made against democrats of Alabama. And without judge or jury these democrats are being tried and con victed by members of their own party without law or evidence, and in some instances the prosecuting attorney him. self is not like Ceasar's wife, above sus- pieion.
 There is not democrat in Alabama but who is opposed to disloyalty, and there is not a democrat who favors their party promises being dominated by an opposing party, but this practice of judS-
 ing a mans intentions and questioning his integrity by pledging him to the sup port of the ticket-as practiced in many counties of the state in 1S94-is more than a free born American will tolerate. If a mans honesty and manhood Is to be questioned by his friends it Is then high time that he seek other associates. and this is just what all honest men will do.

They throw out hints that the foreign policy Of the administration will surprise the country, and delight it. too. There is talk of some surprise in the Cuban question. There Is 0 belief that the president will come out of the Mon- roe doctrine affair with Great Britain with a plume which even James G.

Reed as the chief force at the republican end of Pennsylvania avenue the president will get by far the best of it. These gem tlemen of the administration have abun- promote his third term candidacy In such 8 manner during the next six months as to secure success both in the conven- ton and at the polls.
 'If these spokesmen are going beyond their authority, if Mir. Cleveland has not had a change of conviction as to the pro- priety of third term, if movement for a fourth nomination and a third term is not to be organized from the White House itself, doubtless we shall soon know it by means of some expression from the president himself. But this is the third term movement, as l find 1t among the men whose relations with the president are personally and officially in- timate"

 Question,
 Rutledge, Ala, Nov. 13 1895. To the State Herald:
 For several days we have been noticing in the State Herald that great interest Is being manifested in the public schools of Birmingham. On this line we wish to ask for information few questions, Dr. Philips or any other prominent teacher answering.
 The majority of teachers in Alabama who have taught in the country and small towns know how difficult 1t Is to make collections for tuition, the public funds paying only a small percent of 1t. Would 1t not be best to have g. public school running as long as the public funds would last, and then to teach private school? Where there are about eighty students in attendance and only about sixty are paying ones, what dis position should be made of the twenty? Suppose there are two teachers employed to teach the eighty pupils, thereby doing ordinary work for those who pay as same as to those who do not. Would 1t not be advisable for the board of each school to see that no one sends children to the pub- lie schools longer than the public funds last, who are not average debt payers2 By doing this 0 sufficient number of teachers would be employed to do excel lent work for each child. and each patron would be at ease while sending his chil- dren. If 1t is not the best policy to re- jeot non-payers, then would 1t not be ad- visabIe for the paying patrons to advance the tuition of the non-payers, thereby raising the funds to an amount which will employ all the teachers necessary in the school?
 We want every child in Alabama edu- cated; and, further, we would like each patron to bear his own burden. Any ex- perienced teacher giving us advice on this subject will be our debtor. Respect fully, TEACHEh.
