THE TRUSTEE SYSTEM
Will Not be Abolished Organic
ed Labor Benefited.

DEAR PREes: | am able 10 re
port better progress this week
While bui few bills have reached
the governor. we hayo many i'm,
p rtaut measures in the order oI
tie day.
The bill 10 create a Bureau OF
Labor was defeated, but satisfac.
tory measure will DO passed in be-
half Of organized labor.
The two weeks pay and the
eight hour law" favoring miners
will bc resisted TO the last ditch by
the coal trust, but will probably
pass.
An appropriation Of $4,000 to
establish State Fair is asked for.
II the lobbyists can convince the
members that the common farmer
will be benefited it can pass. The
idea prevails that il is TO advertise
The stock Of a favored few.
The Holland Capitol bill was
made special order for next We'd
onsday, and will doubtless be dis
posed of without delay. 1t has
many Objectionable features; in.
detiniteness, extravaganza, a score
Of salaried officers and a levy for
six years, and as much longer as
those commissioners see proper.
The most conservative estimate is
that the levy would produce one
million dollars in six years, which
would not complete the proposed
structure.
Tho fact that ten thousand dol
lars is provided for at once, as a
pocket money" fund OF those
commissioner shows the magni-
tude of the proposition. The tenn
per of this body is decidedly
against creating those paid COM
missioners, and many worthy mea-
sures will doubtless owe their de-
feat to being LOADED" with them.
We have many state officials who
could perform these duties with
ont being "overworked", for the
honor alone.
The plan to abolish the present
Trustee system is still NJ more
than plan; it will not materi-
alize into practice this session,
TIE people will continue to attend
to their own affairs in their own
way, without it costing anybody
else cent. The proposed bill
wanted to give us three to eight
commissioners in each county, to
sit twenty days in the year at three
TO five dollars per day. The peo-
pie would have been relieved OF
everything that pertained to the
lcommon school, except paying
heir taxes,

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
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inhamed you have rum
bling sound or 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
destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is rothing
but an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free

1902, Mrs. w. H, Crawford, wife of W j..
II. Crawford, who was, for many years

died, as she had lived in peace with
God and men She suffered severely in
her long weeks of affection, but be-
fore her voice failed, she feebly sang
I'M nearing my eternal home" Her
patience and happy willingness to die,
gave sweet consolation to her family.
She leaves a devoted husband, two sons
and two daughters, to mourn their loss.
She was born near Marietta, Feb. 3rd i,

was the youngest child of Frank l.. and
Jane Lyle Wright, and sister of DR..

half-sister. The last day of her life
while delirious, she would smile upon

many of the scenes of her happy youth.
All the dying scenes of swiftly passing
mortality,
How solemn are

her and her family, while in Smyrna,
for nursing me through a spell of sick

KENToN. April 29.-The dry and
dusty spell was at last broken by a re-

ers will now begin to plant corn. Mr..

date farmers has already begun.
Wheat in this community is looking

pretty wheat as can be seen in our
locality.

wife OF Mr.. William w. Jones, aged
80 years, passed away. For a long
time she had been suffering with lung
trouble and that coupled with other
complications was the cause of her
death. Mrs Jones was a devoted
Christian and this enabled her to be
patient sufferer. Though her suffering
at times was intense she never com
planned. She was fully resigned and
death was a welcome relief. The de-
ceased was Miss Nan Underwood

FOREMAN ANTHONY WANTED HIS DINNER.
Amusing Incident at Court Monday, in Which
a Smyrniau Figured Prominently.

ShgIhidu FIguFeu prominently.
The new grand jury of Kent county
took firm stand in court at the open
ing sessions Monday, which caused
much amusement. Returning to the
court room at 1915, the grand jury
through Foreman Levi E. Anthony. of
Smyrna, and Secretary Theodore
Townsend, of Milford, and asked to be
discharged until o'clock. "Oh no,
gentlemen, " said Chief Justice Lore.
"the court wants to get down to bus
mess and we think You ought to 60
back until 1 o'clock. ''No sir" re-
tOrted Foreman Anthony with a re-
spectful bow to the three judges, sit is
past u o'clock and the jurors want
their dinner"
While a wave of laughter spread
over the court room, the chief Justice
scanned the twenty -four faces in the
grand jury box, and seeing that they
were all big, hale farmers, used to
three hearty meals a day regularly.
reIinquished his position and dis
charged the jury.
