Au.erlIscr sursau.

Selma, December TO-
 At the last meeting of the City Council an ordinance was adopted reducing the salaries of an of the city officers of ssl- ma. Those who were getting s1.soo per annum were cut to 5000. The cut went all the way down the line, even the drivers of the hose and reel wagons coming in for a reduction. The oficials, except those receiving the big salaries are not satisfisd, Those getting from so to t<S per month are doing great deal of thinking be- cause their salaries were reduced to about sS per month, and some of them say they will have to quit as they cannot live on such small amounts.
 Some of these officials who are elective ey the people contend that their salaries cannot be reduced during the term of oface for which they were elected. &C., cording to a clause in the new Constitu- ton. which states specifically that the salary of no officer elected by the people shall have his salary reduced during the term for which he was elected. Some of the best lawyers of Selma say that the city officials need not accept the reduc- tion in salaries unless they choose e to do. Some of the city oflfcials feel that tt Is their duty to accept the reduction with out a murmur. on account of the depleted condition of the treasury. Others con- tend that they are already working for too little and will refuse to accept the cut,
 All of the city ofhcials win 90 out of ofice on the first of May next, and the ordinance adopted at the fast City Coun- eli meeting will apply to the new ofIlcsrs and not to the present ones. A good many of the present officers, probably all of them except the Mayor. will be can- didates for reelection. and do not care to have too much to say about the cut. for fear it may have some effect on their getting back in their places. but there is no doubt but that the cut has caused a considerable commotion in ofgiclal circles.

CAtarrh POlSOns.
Catarrh is capable of changing all the
life-giving secretions of the body into
scalding fluids, which destroy and inhame
every part they come in contact with. APP
plications to the places affected by catarrh
can do little good save to soothe or quiet
disagreeable symptoms. Hence it is that
gargles, sprays, atomizers and inhalants
only serve as temporary relief. So long as
the irritating secretions of catarrh continue
to be formed SO long will the membranes
continue to be infamed, no matter what
treatment is used.
There is but one remedy that has the
desirable effect, and thai remedy is
