quired to keep up the streets without
Any permanent improvements, that
s24, 900 is necessary for the police de-
partrent, aud that all other amounts
ere approximately essential to run the

TO START SOMETHING
Former Secretary Eaton, of Demo-
cratic Committee, is Mad.
He States That He Has No Settlement
TO Make With Anyone for
Anything.
TROUBLE SEEMS TO BE BREWING

IL is announced that the Democratic
county committee will meet at the
court house next Monday afternoon at
2 O'Clock TO transact important bust
ness, and is stated that one OF the
main objects will be TO effect a settle q
ment with Attorney W. V. Eaton, for
mer secretary of the county commit
tee.
Attorney Eaton. who was secretary
when Mr.. Charles Emery was chair
mar, aud ran over the Potter crowd
every time an ,ssro care up, retired
some time ago pDon moving from bis
precinct, and Mr.. Wilt Lydon has
since been secretary. Attorney Eaton
was seen by reporter today relative
to the kind Of settlement he was ex-
pected to MAKE. The attorney was
very emphatic in what he had to say.
IL have no settlement Of any Kind
to make with anyone" he said, and
II these fellows think they are going
TO start something for political pur-
poses, which | see through already.
they will find things warm enough to
suit any OF them before they get
through
1.-THE object Is, II seems, to leave
the impression that have fun Dis, or
had funds, thAt$elonged to the Dem.
ocratic committee which have never
accounted for. This is untrue. ]
have no settlement 20 make. have
nothing that belongs to the Democrat
10 county committee and they know
ii. understand they claim have
about 800 left from the county prim-
AIRY two years ago. This is false. In
stead Of there being more than enough
money there was = shortage.
"If any OF those fellows had ever
come to me aud made inquiry | should
have soon given them all the informa
tion they desired, but there has never
been a soul to me for any settlement
Of any description or TO ask anything
about my affairs with the county com
mittee. MIR. Morrison, the chairman,
knows whore my Office is aud has
known for two years. II he thought
there was anything due the county
committee from me, why didn't he
come and ask about Il?
1.-THE truth is this is a political
move. J understand 1t, and want
them TO try to do any sort of BULLDOG
ing with me, and I'll make some Of
them feel mighty sick over it"
Mr.. Eaton said there had been talk
for some time about some frauds in
the county primary two years ago, and
that ose object Of the PRESENT move
was to rake some OF that mp again in
the interest Of certain candidates who
want to work the sympathy racket IL
the coming county campaign.
Il is possible, II any trouble comoi
up, the Emery faction will stick Il
Mr.. Eaton and the Democrats will
have another nip-and.tuck time Of 1
indefinitely in NJ oCracken county.

Inquirirg reader: Yes, the city
has a street. scraper. We do not know
why Mayor Yeser and the street men
don't have II used. Perhaps they doa't
know whst it is for. It may be they
think people like to wade in TIE
streets, or ike to pro penade Oh the
s'dewalks and gaze ecstatically into
the sh 1T ng depths beyond. Or still,
they may think If the people were
given good street occasionally it
woald spot them,or it is possible the
officials realize that IL they undertook
to scrape the streets their terms Of
Office would expire before they got half
through.

THE FUTURE OF VENICE.
Hope That Modern Architects Can
Save Famous City.

Gave TdUlOho wv
Modern science has discovered
much. Now the architect Of Venice
has reported that the foundation OF
the city ia rotten, and pessimists tell
us that the famous old city is doomed.
When the inhabitants Of Venetia took
refuge from the barbarians In the
swamp little islands of the Adriatic
lagoon they knew the real estate was
not very sound, and yet they builded
themselves a city there which has sur
vived eleven centuries. II Is sad In
deed If the shifting sands have begun
an irresistible movement at this. late
age, and that twentieth century archi-
tects, with all their appliances, can
not make the place as safe to-day as
their forefatkors did in the ninth cen
tury.

There is only one way to cure deaf

this tube is infamed you have a rumbl.

when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result. and unless the infiam-
