MEETING IN THE CoUNTY.-A meet
ing of citizens of the county was held at
Blllston school house last night. The
proceedings were of an exciting nature,
addresses being made by Messrs. Henry
A. Whallon, James E. Clements and
Robert G. Cunningham, condemning
the present regime and pleading with
the audience to GUST Mr.. Johns ton from
the office of Commonwealth Attorney
by their votes on election day. Mr..
Will w. Douglass, the candidate for
commonwealth attorney on the re-
form ticket, mounted the rostrum. He
started out by stating that if the
present condition of affairs should exist
ii the county for four years a respecta-
bic person would not be safe in walking
on the public highways. "Why, this
man Johnston" said the reform caudi-
date, has no conscience. He told me
so himself. How, then, can he expect
to administer justice as an official repre-
sentative of the people," In conclud-
lug his address Mr.. Douglass urged up
on his hearers the necessity of con.
sidering the situation carefully and ad-
v.sed them to vote for the men VINO
they believed would redeem Alexan-
dria county from its present unenviable
position. Mr. Johnston finally obtained
the floor and deaied every charge that
had been brought against him. He de-
clsred that it was not his duty 10 ferret
out crime. "You DIFFERS" he shouted,
who know of crime being prevalent in
the county, why don't you bring specific
charges against the criminals, and not
go around jabbing me in the back?"
The speaker said his father was sport
and a good one, and the son saw no OBJ
lection to race track; in fact he had
racers of his own and always bet on
them. Mr.. Johnston then entered into
denunciation of the pulpit and press
of Washington. After the meeting the
following candidates presented their
claims to the meeting ". w. Douglass
and r. w. Johnston for Common
wealth's Attorney; W.. c. Wibirt and A.
D. Torreyson for County Treasurer;
Christian Costello for sheriff, and A. G..
Hayes for County Supervisor. The
meeting then adjourned.

Deafness Cannot be lureG

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 intlamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is intlamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever nine cases out of ten are cauS-
ed by catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
