TRIPLE ALLIANCE FOR SILVER.
Chairman Rozelle Favors a Common
Cause and Party Autonomy.

From the st. Louis Post Dispatch.
81 am in favor of a triple alliance
among all free silver men of the three
parties,r said A Rozelle, Chairman of
the State Committee of the Peoples
party, to a Post Dispatch man We'd
nesday. "I mean that the free silver
Republicans shall organize, the free
silver Democrats organize separately
and the Populists organize their own
free silver societies, but that all shall
work in harmony as a triple alliance,
offensive and defensive, during a cam
paigu.
ST expect a lively time at the meet
ing of the Populist Committee at JEFF
ferson City on the 22nd inst, when
the question of fusion comes up for
discussion. l believe that the fusion
carried out in the way it was with the
Democrats in the last campaign is
perfectly proper. There are a num-
Der of intolerant extremists who call
themselves the middle road
men, who are ranting against anysort
of fusion, but I think the wisest course
is for all free silver men and those in
favor of financial reform to work to-
gether during a campaign. However,
the Populists must be careful and not
allow their organization to be absorb
ed by the Democratic party"
Mr.. Rozelle refused to talk about
his prospects for appointment as La
Dor Commissioner of the State. The
general opinion is that Gov. Stephens
will appoint him, al the Democratic
State Committee has Endorsed him for

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inlamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
fammation 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 in
famed condition of the mucous SUR
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
catarrh)that cannot be cured by Halls

RIGID ECONOMY ADVOCATED.

RIGID ECONOMY ADVOCATED.
The most rigid economy must be
practiced by all departments, not
only because it is right as a govern
mental policy, but more especially
because it is imperatively demanded
by the exigencies confronting us.
1t is my opinion that under the pre-
vailing gold standard and financial
policies of the federal government,
general business conditions will not
materially Or permanently improve,
but, on the contrary, we can reason
ably anticipate a continuance of this
| experience, which has so distressed
the country in recent years. l see
nothing in the immediate future to
warrant a substantial hope for bet
ter times. 1t is the part of wisdom
that the representatives of the peo-
pie should keep these things in
mind when they come to provide
for the public revenue, and to make
appropriations; but no matter how
economically we may administer
| the affairs of the state, the con-
stantly growing needs of the public
service incident to a large increase
in population and business develop
ments make it impossible that
appropriations should be confined
to the present volume of business if
that volume should remain station
airy as it will, substantially, in the
presence of further legislation.
There is a positive necessity for an
increase in the treasury receipts.
This l believe can be done in a
measure, as in my judgment it
should be, by such amendments
and conditions to the tax laws as
will decrease the burdens of farming
and kindred industries, and impose
a taxation on those who are enjoy
ing public franchises and special
privileges granted to them by law
and for which under existing condi-
tions they maker no adequate returns.
But, whatever you deem it most
wise to do, the situation is one which
presents a legislative subject of the
first Importance and its considera-
ton should not be delayed.
Gov. Stephens recommends the
creation of the Office of bank COM
missioner; favors the appointment
of a commission to revise the laws;
recommends stringent laws to pre-
vent coercion of employees; calls at
tention to needed changes in the
election laws and makes a strong
plea for good roads.
In concluding Gov. Stephens said:
In conclusion let me again remind
you that to you and to me have the
dearest interests of the people been
intrusted. l have an abiding faith
that we shall be able to rise above
party zeal and factional spirit in a
hearty cooperation for the promo
ton of those interests. 1t is only
by sc dong that we can merit the
confidence which has been reposed
in us, and preserve consciences void
of offense. Approaching the grave
responsibilities of my position and
fully sensible of my own infirmities,
I trust our Heavenly Father to guide
me to see the right and give me the
courage to do it. We must at all
times remember our grateful de-
pendence upon that Supreme Being
without whose guidance and help
we can accomplish nothing great
and good. invoke upon Jul great
and beloved state and all of our peo-
pie and your actions the blessings of
