There is more Catarrh in this section
of country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced
it local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly falling to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be a constitutional disease
and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manu-
featured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional cnre on
the market. 1t is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful.
1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
eous surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any one case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars and

The ''unco good" people of the
United States are very generally pro-
testing against the seating of Reed
Smoot from Utah in the United
States Senate, on the ground that he
is an apostle in the Mormon Church,
and some say he has two wives. This
is denied. Senator George F. Hoar of
Massachusetts reminded the signers to
the petition that it was highly i'm
proper, as being an attempt to infu-
enee the Senate on a judicial question,
which should be determined by the
laws and the Constitution of the
United States. with all respect to
signers of petitions of this character"
he said, Il want to say that their
petitions are as much out of place
when addressed to this court the
Senate) as similar petitions would be
if addressed to the Supreme Court of
the United States in any case pending
before that tribunal" Notwithstand-
ing the fact that no man could say nay,
he seemed to have stood alone in his
position. This is government based
upon a Constitution, and whenever
we depart from it, we get into the
anarchistic carriage. Mr.. Hoar be-
lieves that if the Constitution permits
an apostle of the Mormon Church to
occupy a seat in the United States Sem
ate-and it permits it unless it forbids
it, and il does not-that Mr.. Smoot
must be seated. The Constitution
must be held paramount to all other
considerations, five are to have a Con-
stitutional government. The petition
ers, having asked the Senate to dis
regard the Constitution, should be
treated with silent contempt, and the
petitions burned up. So far as the
morals of Mr.. Smoot are concerned,
from all accounts, they are better than

Carson Letter.
ED. COURIER:

ED. COURIER;
There is some discussion in Texas
about making five States out of the old
Lone Star This would give the South
eight more Democrats in the Senate,
and many additional Members of Con-
gress. However, in spite of this advan-
tage, Judge Reagan warns his people to
keep the State intact, and advances as
his principal reason his belief that the
Republic is not going to endure long,
but will soon be superseded by Mon
archial form Of government. Judge
Reagan was Postmaster General of the
Southern Confederaey, and is the only
living member of Jefferson Davis Cab
met. He has since served in the
United States Senate, and on the Inter- |
State Commerce Commission. His
honesty, ability and integrity is un-
questioned, north or south of Mason
and Dixie's line. He says that Texas,
within ten or twelve years will enjoy
a population of 100000 people, and
he wants his State maintained intact,
so as to be able within its boundaries
to form Republic such as was con-
templated by Thomas Jefferson, and he
predicts, that with the experience of
the United States, and the knowledge
impaired thereby, a better government
will be instituted for its people, and
for these reasons he is willing to fore
go present advantage. Most of the
newspapers pronounce Judge Reagan
pessimistic in his views on the above
subject Is he? Thomas Darlington
Macaulay predicted that this Republic
could not live beyond about the year
1850. Was he actually mistaken? Have
we now the same Republic that we had
upon the adoption of the Constitution
and its ratification? and is il the same /.
Republic that the trainers of the Con-
stitution contemplated? Does the Con-
stitution, as interpreted by the Su-
preme Court of the United States now
mean what it was originally under
stood to mean? 1t would be impossi-
BILE, without writing big book, to
show its several changes, but claim
that by 1870 our Republican form of
government mad become over half
Monarcnial, and that Macaulay had
d rr,de very good prediction. | fur
Their claim that the principal difference
between our present Republic and the
Monarchy of Great Britain is the fact
that we elect our King every four
years, thus having the right to de-
throne him every four years, but gen.
orally do it every eight years, and if
we ever break through Washington's
rule, that no person should occupy the |
Presidential chair more than twice in
succession, the only difference between |
our Republic and a Monarchy will be |
that we elect new King every time
an old one dies. My reason for the
foregoing eonclucions is the fact that |
with the vast power given President, |
all he has to do is to work in harmony |
with the vast combinations of capital
to insure his reelection every four |
years, and the love of power is suffi- |
eient ,indueement to make any ordina- |
~ mortal do it. Ne man in the Unit /
ed States has kept better run of the
history of the United States than Judge
Reagan, and believe in his words.

by the Old galleries. Prof. Holmes was
at first at loss to know for what pur-
pose the aborigines had mined, knowing
that at the time white men came to the
North American continent the aborig-
inaI inhabitants were still in the stone
age. This precIuded the idea Of an iron
mine.
Finally, however, he discovered that
there were occasional pockets of red and
yellow oxide throughout the mine, which
all North American Indians used foE
paint. Hundreds Of stone sIedge ham
mers have been found in the old mine
and the miners have made one pile OF
more than 1900. Prof Holmes says
the aborieines must have gathered them
in thousands. He has boxed W a large
number of these sledge hammers and
sent them to the National Museum.
