DEATH OF DR.. BRAY.

DIR. L. NJ. Bray died suddenly at
his home in Toone Saturday after
noon, April 11th, 1903, of cerebral
hemorrhage. His remains were
buried Sunday afternoon in the
Rainey graveyard, Rev. q. A.
West conducting the funeral SER
vice.
DR.. Bray was born in Chatham
County, North Carolina, August
IS, 1927. He chose the profession
of medicine and was graduated from
one of the leading medical colleges
of Philadelphia. When the civil
war commenced, he returned to his
native state and entered the Con-
federate service.
In 1866 he removed to Hardeman
County, Tennessee, and settled in
the 18th district, at Bray's Mill,
now known as Opha, where he en-
joyed a large practice for nearly
twenty years. Later he removed
to Toone, residing there until his
death.
lie was twice married. His first
wife died August 7, 1899. By her
he had two children, Mrs. T. E.
Robinson and Mrs. w. 3. Brad
ford, who with his second wife sur
vive.
DR.. Bray was a noble, generous,
kind-hearted man, greatly beloved
by every body who knew him. He
was devoted to his profession and
had a high conception of duty.
The night was never too dark nor
the weather too severe for him to
refuse to respond to call to allevi-
ate suffering humanity, no matter
from what source it came. To the
most humble cottage, without hope
of reward, he went cheerfully and
gladly He will be greatly missed
in the community where he lived
so long and served his people so
faithfully.
Peace to his ashes

A disordered stomach NAV caus

A disordered stomach may cause
no end of trouble. When the
stomach fails to perform its
functions the bowels become de-
ranged, the liver and kidneys con-
gested, causing numerous diseases,
the most fatal of which are painless
and therefore the more to be dread
ed. The important thing is to re-
store the stomach and liver to
healthy condition, and for this
purpose no better preparation can
be used than Chamberlain's Stomach
and Liver Tablets. For sale by

ALL WANT FEES.

In the list of claims allowed by the
supervisors will be noticed a large
number of bills allowed constables
and justices in the different town
ships. The explanation of the rush
Of this class of bills is that the town
ship officers, now that the salary
matter is before the supreme court,
have concluded to accept the offer
of payment of fees under the old law
pending the decision of the appellate
court on the matters in controversy.
All the talk about these officers be-
ing compelled to serve without COM
pensation until the final determine
tion of the suit is thereby exploded.
There was nothing to it in the first
place. They might have drawn
their fees under the old law right
along, as far as the auditor and dis
trict attorney were concerned. But
it suited the plans of some to try to
make it appear that they were being
unjustly kept out of their money
because of the appeal proceedings,
and that unless the appeal was with
drawn they would be compelled to
resign their offices, because they
could not afford to wait two years
for their pay. They have not re-
signed, and they are actually draw
ing their pay; if not all of them, at
least all those who have bent their
pride to the extent of presen ting
their claims for fees. So we pre-
sumo everything will now move
along smoothly until the case is
finally disposed of by the supreme
court. We may here state that the
questions involved in this Justices
salary case have assumed statewide
Importance. In Humboldt county
the same point is being fought out
in the courts. And the interests in
volved are deemed so vital that the
two superior judges of that county
are expected to sit in bank in the
hearing of the case, and unite in for
mulating the decision. The issue is
travelling up to the higher court
from all directions. In some coun-
ties they are contesting the law be-
cause it reduces, and in others be-
cause it increases compensation,
but in all of them it is fought on the
ground of the unconstitutionality of
the classification of townships by
population for the purpose of fixing
salaries.

GRAND JURY INVESTIGATION.

A grand jury will meet in Jackson
next Friday. The gathering of this
body in Amador county has been
more in the nature of farce than
anything else. A tour of the county
buildings, the jail and hospital, is
usually made, and everything is
found to be in apple-pie order, and
in few stereotyped phrases the ad-
ministration of county affairs pro-
nounced all right, and the mutual ad-
miration society breaks up with all
round congratulations. As far as
the investigation of criminal bust
ness is concerned, the grand jury
system has long since been practi-
cally abolished. The only useful
purpose it can now serve is the over
hauling of the management of coun-
ty affairs, with the view of correct
ing any evils that may be found to
be connected Herewith. 1t is sup
posed to be an inquisitorial body of
men, entirely disinterested in the
matters to be investigated, except
as taxpayers, charged with the duty
of looking into the Whole range of
local affairs during the preceding
year. Such duty cannot be proper
ly discharged in the course of few
hours. If the duty is thoroughly
performed, though days are occupied
in its performance, the salutary eff
feet it would exercise upon those in
authority would be we'll worth the
money expended. On the other hand,
a slipshod performance is useless
squandering of public money. Let
it be understood that a grand jury
meeting means a keen and business
like prying into every nook and cor
ner of public affairs in Amador coun-
ty, and fearless report of things
as they are actually found to be, and
who can calculate the benefits that
would flow therefrom. There are
some matters in this county that
need overhauling. We might refer
particularly to the method of spend
ing the road funds, representing
fully one-fourth of the total ex-
penses of the local government. Is
the system in vogue in this county
in accordance with law? fit is not,
1T is time it was stopped, and legal
system adopted. In Mariposa coun-
ty, a year ago, this matter was taken
up, and reported upon by a grand
jury with decidedly beneficial re-
suits. We can see no reason why
the same example should not be fol-
lowed in Amador county. The ques
tion has been agitated here for
years, without change. 1t is now
evident that stern decisive action by
an authoritative body is necessary
to uproot the evil.

The eastern elections last Tuesday

The eastern elections last Tuesday
leave no cause for Encouragement
from a republican standpoint. The
party strength is unimpaired. This
is all the more significant because of
the many occurrences in the indus
trial centers which it was thought
might disturb the political situation.
The sole comfort of the democrats is
that they carry Rhode Island by a
greatly reduced majority, and elect
the Tamany candidate for Mayor of
New York. Ohio disposes of the as
pirations of Tom Johnson for presi-
dental honors by burying him under
majority of Ia, 900. Massachusetts,

old time majorities for the republi-
can tickets. The outlook for the
presidential contest next year is as
favorable as could be desired bv re

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 inaamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it 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 de-
stroyed forever: nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inilamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
