by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portions of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition OF the
mucous lining OF the Eustachan Tube.
When this tube gets imhamed 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
destroyed forever: nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inhamed condition Of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars Re-
ward for any case Of Deafness (clused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

LAWSON AND HIS
POLITICAL GUIDES
The Views Of the Men Whom he
Says He Follows.
AND He FOLLOWED IN 1891
"In Gods Name Let Them Dump Silver
on U.s." Said Lawson, at Is the
Equitable Standard"

In recent communications to the voters
of the eighth district Hon. Thomas &.
Lawson refers, in defense of his opposi-
tion to the free coinage of silver, To the
attitude Of Alexander II. stephens. Robert
Toombs and other distinguished men who,
at one time or another, represented in con-
gress a number of the counties now form
ing part of the eighth district. In this
connection The Constitution publishes
statements from Mr.. Stephens and Mr.
Toombs which throw the calcium hght
of truth upon the attitude of these TWO
great Georgians on the question when IS
now, as it was then. attracting more pub
lie attention than any other issue.
As to the position of Mr.. Stephens. il is so
well understood and has been SO fully set
forth i'm his public speeches ana WfIthhSS
that it is entirely unnecessary TO attempt
any argument to demonstrate the TACT thdt
he was always an earnest and an enthus-
iastic advocate of the fun restoration oil
silver to the coinage conditions eNlSthS
prior to the decentralization in 1913.
As to Mr.. Toombs's views on the ques-
ton ne speaks for himself in the inter
view which is herewith presented rms
interview was published in The Constitu-
ton of February H. 1878, and was written
by the late Henry w Grady, who enjoy
cd the fun confidence Of Mr.. Toombs
What Toombs and Stephens said i'm 1873
applies with equal force to conditions eN-
listing today. and what Judge Lawson SAID
on May 81 1891. in the letter which IS
herewith appended. is even more iorcetul
today than it was at that time, for the
necessity for the remedy then outlined Is
greater today than ever before.
We present these interviews and Judge

what made you better democrat than
am? Was II that flop? DO you mean
that you are better at your home and at
your own nreside or when you are up
yonder, saying that you hope to see cotton
sold at cents "A pound?'
No Safe Light.
Colonel Howard then read again this ?
cent-a- pound quotation and after asking
some of the boys i'm the crowd how many
of them could make money with cotton at
cents a pound, he reioined: Now. if you
send Judge Lawson back TO congress. and
let him legislate directly or indirectly to
bring your cotton down to cents pound,
you viii have no right to call any man
fool, You put Lawson and others who
believe with him back there and you will
have 2-cent cotton sure enough. He talks
of 2-ccnt cotton because he knows that the
gold standard means constant depreciation.
The trouble with these gold standard
fellows said Colonel Howard in conClu-
sion. lis that they don't realize that 1t is
the duty of public servants TO legislate so
as to bring about the greatest good to the
greatest number a man who believes as
Judge Lawson does IS no safe light by
which TO he guided. no matter how late ia
life he may get his views.
All through his speech Colonel Howard
had been interrupted by the hcartiest evil
dences that he had won the crowd and
that they were with him. As he concluded
they gave him another cheer and there
were cries Of Good boy, You've sure
got him." and others of the like.

money are best entitled TO it; and it is
great wrong to deprive them of IL ex-

wrong is augmented and Intensified when
it is taken to enrich few, who by reason
of past legislation and accumulated
wealth, are much more able to take care

had not answered his questions and that

proposition would destroy the cause of the
silver men, He argued that the govern

ana that the law of 1873 simply recognized
