Hidalgo is improving. Two new
brick residences are in course of
construction, one belonging to J.

ditions to the place. Mr.. Gibbs ex-
poets to erect another brick
residence later on. Postmaster Gu
marc has bought some town lots,
and will also put up several neat
brick cottages to rent, and other
parties will probably build in the
near future.

ty.

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 inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly 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 caus-
ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

WASHINGTON
From Oar Regular Correspondent

There has been discovered what
looks ike serious attempt at fraud
% the part Of American consuls in
Ching, who have been freely endors-
ing false certificates intended for the
evasion Of the Chinese exclusion law
While the law excludes all laborcrs,
it permits the admission Of "mcr-
chants meaning those who have en-
gagged in trade in China. When such
a merchant desires TO come TO the
1 United States he secures from the
! local authority certificate showing
that he has been merchant. Tbs
/ certificate is then taken 10 the United
States consul and the report II that
consuls have been endorsing these
certificates for consideration and

The farm Is the foundation Of oul
varied industries. The national do
main Is the grand source of our pros
perity.-S. S. Cox.
MIR. Balfour and Mr.. Chamberlain
are trying to induce the people Of
Great Britain and Ireland to adopt q
system OF high tariff taxation because
young America Is more prosperous
than old England. Mr.. Balfour and
Mr.. Chamberlain are both great men;
but their greatness does not at all less
en- the folly of Their proposition. Their
argument Is not new. IL has been fire.
auently offered in defence OF the spoil
alton system In this country; but II
is scarcely worthy Of consideration,
Protectlonists claim that because
those who come here from Great Brit
tain and Ireland better their condi-
ton therefore commercial restriction
il better than commercial freedom
But when 1t Is called to mind that
repeal Of England's protective corn
laws, and while the United States was
considerd u free trade country, found
the Improvement in their condition
more marked than those who came
later; why, this argument falls to the
ground. Under the blessings OF free
government, the prosperity OF the
United States comes from the great
agricultural and mineral wealth OF
the country. Said n wise old settler,
in our hearing, one day, have
prospered here because got that farm
at 10 cents per acre, and got IL In fec
simple, without having TO pay tithes
TO church or rents to landlord; and
furthermore, because, under n kind
providence, have enjoyed the many
blessings OF free government, and not
because Of having TO pay high tariff
taxes.
II Mr. Chamberlain, who Is the
moving spirit In this new corn law
scheme, ever succeeds In getting his
countrymen TO take up their Brother
Jonathan's burden OF high tariff tax
alton they will be very sorry for It,
Trade restrictions are harmful, while
commercial freedom Is benclicent

Uncertainty of Life.

Rev. Jacob Marks, aged "a years,
died suddenly while attending the
semi-annual conference of the Rich
land Union church at Excelsior. Mr.
Marks attended the meeting and
opened the services with prayer.
After the services he arose from his
seat and made few remarks on the
uncertainty Of life and urged those
present to live Christian lives. At
the close of his remarks he sank into
his chair and expired without a
moments warning. Death was caused
by heart failure.
