Under the rule Of the Republican
party in Idaho the State tax levy
was So cents on the one hundred
dollars assessed valuations. The
whole Populistic element, de-
clare that that amount OF tax was
outrageous and howled vociferously
for reform" The reform they got
is a raise of the tax levy, which for
the next two years will be S7.1-2
cents on the hundred dollars and
there will be a deficiency OF $4,000
at the end OF the two years besides.
Our Populist friends will undoubt-
~ take this dose of "reform" with
considerable twisting of their faces;
but as they said "reform" was
good, this dose will probably cure
them of the disease Mirror.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

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 gets inflamed you have a
rumbiing sound or imperfect hearing, and
when 1t 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 de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh J
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

We note with a great deal of
plcasurable satisfaction the steady
growth and material improvement
of Forrest City since we have been
absent. Forrest City is naturally
one of the best towns in the state
by reason of its location and rail-
road advantages, together with its
vast rich farming territory. We
do not hope for any great boom to
come this way, and really believe
that a natural steady growth is
more desirable. This, as evidenced
by past experience, is an assured
condition which awaits US, and we
can all push it along" by acting
IN harmony for all that is benefi-
oial 10 any. Whatever individual
effort is put forth for the upbuild.
ing and improvement of the town
adds SO much to the value of all
other property, and the general
stock of enterprise.

The Woman's building at |

The Woman's building at the
Tennessee Centennial Exposition
was erected to show what a GEN.
tury has done for the Tennessee
woman. Near it there is q rude
little log cabin, the one floor of
clay, furnished after tho manner of
a hundred years ago. The women
Of Bedford county deemed it of
interest 10 show the contrast by
putting this reminder of old time
life where it could be seen. The
women of Carter county added to
the little cabin the rude furniture
of that time, nearly every article
having history. and being a yer.
liable relic Of the pioneer days.
Here the big fireplace, the swing.
ing kettle, the oven, the wash-po OF,
the rough furniture, all tell in elo-
quence louder than words what the
wives and mothers of hundred
years ago underwent for their hus-
bands and sons. The elegant fur
nishings, the gas range, the cur
tains, rugs, bric-a-brac and other
costly luxuries that the woman of
to-day considers a necessary part
of her comfort, were unknown to
them.

The Cotton Crop.

From a circular issued by La.
than, Alexander & Co., New
York, we CLEAN the following:
Tho total cotton acreage in.
crease in the United States is est.
mated at $4,000 acres, or 4-1O
per cent larger than last year, and
the average planting of the crop is
some three weeks later than last
year. The increase of acreage in
Arkansas is 1000 acres or 2 pei
cent larger than last year, and the
crop three weeks later.
The report of the condition OF
the crop is less promising at this
date than for many years, Texas
being the only state whore normal
conditions have generally pre-
vailed. In all other cotton states
unseasonably cool weather, poor
stands and great damage from cut
worms have been the rule.
"The overflow of a vast area of
the most productive cotton lands
in the States of Tennessee, Arkan.
sas, Mississippi and Louisiana will
necessarily lessen the acreage in
these sections and planting has
been done under discouragiug cir
cumstances-fve to eight week S
later than last year.
GAS SIX months are usually re-
CURED to make cotton crop, un-
less almost phenomenally favor
aole weather occurs henceforth, a
good crop in the Mississippi valley
will be impossible"
