Judge Tuley, Of Chicago. has Just ron.
dcrod an important decision affecting the
right Of municipalities to specially tax
blcycca or To require owners Of wheels to
pay a license. The judge annullcd tho
operations Of nm ordinance passed by the
city council holding that It tmroscs not
license but tax, and that since wheel
owners already pay tax on wheels ns
personal property the ordinance provides
for double taxation Incidentally the
Judge holds that cycn tho requirement Of

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an inilnmed con-
dItioH Of the mucous lining Of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumblng sound or
imperfect hearing, and when II Is en-
tIrely closed, Deafness Is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to It's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by cntarrh. which Is nothing but an In

Japan whaled poor old China unmer-
clfully, and then extorted from the Ce-
lestlals large indemnity for the ex-
pense and trouble involved in the
thrashlng operation. This plumber has
been devoted largely TO the increase of
the naval strength Of Japan, she having
already become liable to the extent OF

ships of war. The swelling Of her fleet
has been attended by correspondent

Senator Stewart objects strongly to

In an interview published in the Hart
ford Courant, Senator Hawfey gives a
true estimate of President Mckinley as
Chief Executive. which those who have
closely observed his course since the 4th
Of March will heartily endorse. General
Hawley points out the fact that Presl-
dent Mckinley who never had any bitter
enemies, now stands higher in the esti-
nation Of the whole political world and
of the whole country than ever before
not alone as a man of sagacty and cour-
age, but as a CHEEKY. hopeful and coura-
geous gentleman, Veteran Democrats
who do not approve his policies give him
this credit, and no man ever occupied the
presidential chair who has been held in
higher personal esteem by his political
opponents. General Hawley continues:
Before he was President many persons
doubtless thought him man of easy and
pllabe temper. So he Is In q good sense.
But he has developed a military prompt
moss and vigor Of Judgment and action
that have raised him In the estimation Of
those who see most of the interior Of po;.
Grant. or like President Arthur, who had
the tact to deny n request and make tho
applicant happy at the same time. He Is
very greatly pleased by the successful up
shot Of the extra session He called II In
opposition to the large majority Of his cor
respondents. He was told that II was use
less to expect a tariff nlll to pass as tho
Republicans hadn't and couldn't have n
majority In tho senate, He took the view
that the country expected n revision Of
the tariff that delay would he almost
cruel; that the anxiotiCs and uncertainties
OF Industries In general should he relieved,
and that should hostile senate kill a
thrin bin, the Republican party would
show that II had done all In Its power to
holp the country and to avoid the selling
Of bonds IN time OF peace. / hope am not
vain, hut ! take great pleasure that ] am
one Of those who wrote Mr.. Mckinley very
urgently pressing the duty and necessity
Of an extra session lie referred to tho
fact In conversation the other day and
said "Ycn but large majority were the
other way"
The result indicated the course OF
President Mckinley In carrying out
promptly his promise to the people in
spite Of the advice Of majority OF his
would-bc advisers, and It is pleading TO
know that the latter are nov giving him
credit for taking the position he did.

The attempt in Georgia to amalga-
mate white and negro tabor, and the
prompt resistance, which 1t met at the
hands of the whites, foreshadow So
clal crisis in the south of a grave and
even appalling nature, and one which
cannot be contemplated without a
shudder, The negro as a race and as a
class enjoys all the civil and political
rights Of citizenship. He has the bless
inus of liberal educational system, and
as he improves under the aegis of these
rights and privileges. It Ia impossible to
believe that he viii not strive TO elevate
himself above the hard conditions of a
field hand-of a newer of wood and a
drawer OF water. He Ia massed In the
south with no apparent inclination to
roam. 1t Is from the south that he must
draw support for himself and family.
How will he do It? That Is the great so
cial problem which confronts the south
ern people to-day, and the solution OF
which may not be found In the life of
the present Notwithstanding, Va,

In the Chicago Record the clty'a attor-
neys eontended that the power to i'm
pose license for the use OF It's streets
was involved in the same power which
gives It the power TO regulate the use of
the streets. The court answers that the
power of regulation does not carry the
right to impose license for the use of
what Is free to the people of the whole
state. Regulation implies restriction of
uses or practices Injurious to individuals
or to the community"
The Judge very naturally ruled that
bicycling does not come under this head.
The laws can regulate the use of wheels
on the streets-their speed,&c, for the
protection OF the public, but the right Of
this regulation does not imply the right
OF an imposition OF license or special
tax.
Since the wheel has come into such
common use the matter Of raising reye-
nue. from them has been discussed In
many cities, and in view of this fact the
decision of Judge Tuley is OF interest.
Stripped Of all legal verbtage the judges
opinion clearly Is that such a proposition
is not Just, since wheeling is simply a
means of amusement and convenience
to the individual citizen, taking the place
of the private carriage or horse and can
only be taxed in the regular way as per-
sonal property, and not made the subject
of especial discrimination as separate
revenue raiser.
