The Mayor and the Traction Conn
pany.

We are sorry to see the Mayor place
himself prominently among the baters Of
the trolley mpa The notion of as
sailing its franchises, because it refuses
to be bulldozed into buying water from
the city to sprinkle the streets, is really
unworthy of a man in his position. The
injustice. as well as the impossibility, of
the idea should be manifest to the Mayor.
Indeed. His Honor should see that in
his letter of yesterday, he puts himself
In a very dubious position. If he does
NOT believe in his own threats. he must
see the folly of attempting to bluff the
shrewdest business men of the country
With ghosts. On the contrary, If he
thinks the company's charters are for
feitable, or that license fees can be coli
lected on It's cars, It is absolutely ridicu-
1ous to weigh such claims in the same
balance with the price Of = few gallons

WHY does not somebody in the en-
ploy Of the Street and Water Board in
spect the asphalt pavements from time TO
time and stop the destruction Of them by
INSCRIPTIONS persons who cut them up
to get at the pipes beneath, and then
deliberately refrain from having the sur
face properly repaired. There are many
such spots in the city. All wheelmen
know them

Of water, at most a couple Of hundred
dollars
The assertion that the city cannot aft
ford to give the. water is preposterous.
All that would be used at $50 a million
gallons would not be appreciable in the
city's annual water expenses. No doubt
the company would buy the water # it
we're not for the principle involved, and
the necessity of protecting itself against
e-ncroaehments, for we really doubt if the
whole sum at issue is 500 a year.

and the wisdom of the party as 1t will

When the time comes. the right man will

OF course. Mayor Hoos is the Logical
candidate. This party chose him to repre-
sent its policy in municipal affairs, and
II 1t approves his course down to the
opening of the campaign. it viii. of
course, give him the endorsement of a
second nomination. If the primaries were
to be held tomorrow, we do not doubt

any change of sentiment in the next nine
months. Certainly. it will take some
notable event to create any sufficient to
defeat the Mayor. 1t is, however, mere
silly season gossip to talk graveIy at this

spring, with a Gubernatoriai contest in

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased porti-" OF ;he ear. There is
only one way to care Deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When the tnbe gets infamed you have
rumbling sound OF 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
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur

We will give One Hundred Dollars for

Extended to most, II not all Of the Maine

been considerable talk among the labor
about strikes because of
This cut, but the prospect is that none

The operatives are disposed to recognize
The situation and make the best of it. 1t
is hardship but the grounds for the
cut seem to be more reasonable than
have been usual in such cases. Over
production is one Of the causes of the
