Deafness Cannot be Cured

10y 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 infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when if 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 des-
troyed forever; nine cases out OF ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is MOTH
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
Tor any case Of Deafness (caused bv
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

THE GOOD ROADS"
DDETENCE

There is "a crying demand for better
roads in the county. Everybody says
so. Everybody knows so. A resident
of Thompson Valley, the Cove, Cavatts
Creek, Horsepen, Tip Top, and every
where else i'm the county, rs he pulls
through the mud says so. And yet
when meeting is called to try TO bet
ter matters these same people are
absent. Last Thursday, at the meet
ing here they were all conspicuous 10y
their absence. How are we to have
good roads unless we build them, OF
help those who are trying to? Some
people don't deserve or want better
roads judging 10y the interest they take,
Talk is cheap.

New Yord can be counted among the
Democratic States in 1908, and Mr..
Hearst is in position to do valiant
work in securing n national triumph
for progressive Democratic ideas.
"Thc Republicans have had an ef-
foctive campaign cry in standing 10y
the President.
"While the record showed that the
Democrats in the Senate and House
stood 10y the President better than the
Republicans, the admirers of the Presi-
dent very naturally gave weight to his
appeal for Republican Congress, al
though in making the appeal the Presi-
dent put a personal victory above the
reforms which he has been advocat-
ing. Two years from now that appeal
will be OF no avail, for the President
will not be in Office after March 4, 1908.
Even if he were a candidate, which no
friend Of his can assume after his re-
peated declarations, he would have e.
confront the third term issue, and who
would say that that issue alone would
not lose the President enough votes tC
make his race hopeless"

MR.. BRUCE
abingdon Virginian.)


Mr.. Robert p. Bruce, instead of
"going down in defeat" as the old say
ing goes, has arisen to fame i'm this un-
even and unsuccessful contest. He
was confronted at the outset by a ma
iority of more than 1000 votes; by an
army Of thoroughly entrenched Office
holders, organized solidly for the fray;
with glittering promises OF the pat
ronage field behind his opponent; with
practically the government (even a
message from the President of the
United States by Speaker Cannom to
contend with; with all the ready money
and official machinery necessary to
promote the methods Of his adversary
and influence the minds of the people;
with public sentiment poisoned by
misconstruction and misrepresenta-
ton Of the great national question of
the times; and with falsehoods about
his own official actions Yet he broke
through the lines of the fierce array
against him and sent them tumbling
over one another in fight.
No such fight has ever been made
in this district since the time when
Gilbert c. Walker met the hosts of
Republican cohorts under Wells in the
dark days of RECONSTRUCTION. He has
left to his successful opponent as fruits
Of the victory merely the prestige of
position and the emoluments of the
office. Rather than an avalanche of
gaudy oratory and deceptive plead
ings from school houses, road sides
and fence corners, he preferrd to pre-
sent the justice, soundness and patri-
otism of his cause in a dignified.
straightforward, manly way, appealing
to reason rather than prejudice, to
thoughtfulness rather than passion. 1t
has been a very great while since a
candidate for congress in this district
has broken away from the ways and
schemes of the latter-day politician
and gone back to the principles and
methods of the "olk folks" when it
was necessary for the man and the
office, to which he asked the people to
elect him, to be indissoluably linked to-
gether in every line of fitness.
Such is the man Bruce, who is truly
victorious in the hour of defeat, against
whom the muck-rakers and scandal
mongers found naught to say that was
not proven to be false. That Mr.
Bruce's old-timey ideas of uprightnese
and purity of government, Of untinsel-
ed patriotism, Of openness and frank
ness, of character above politics has
impressed the thinking people of
Southwest Virginia, the result of the
election plainly shows. A few weeks
more Of education and the tide would
have turned in full and elected him.

We had not seen the affidavit" and
were at loss to know its contents. or
what it meant. However, since the
election we have run across n circular,
which explains itself.
The circular stated that "somc years
ago" Mr.. Bruce got very drunk, and
had to be taken in and cared for 10y
one S. f. Porter, who signs the state
ment, and swears to it before deputy
clerk, d. II. Holleyfield. Attached to
the same circular was an affidavit.
purporting TO have been signed by T..
W. Owens, "a prominent Democrat
and Registrar at WISE" stating that
he was with Mr.. Bruce on the occas-
ion, confirming thestatemcnt Of Porter.
As stated above, a telegram was re-
ceived by the News late on Monday
'A'OAi'oNh, Aoiil MI. ONtllS. Itpuuldl-
ing the affidavit, copy of which is
given above, signed by Mr. Owens, and
Witnessed by Mcssrs Fulton and Elan
airy.
The object OF the circular was. a.
stated, to offset the charge Of drunk
enness against Colonel Slemp, and to
defeat if possible 10y this unfair and
slanderous means, the election of Mr.
Bruce.
Where this circular came from-who
sent it out or who printed it we do not
know.
The slanderer and periured author
lives somewhere in Wise Did Colonel
Slemps managers in Wise have any
thing to do with this piece of dirty
political trickery and fraud? The or
binary campaign lie" is bad enough
but one sworn to shows a depth OF
moral turpitude and meanness almost
beyond comprehension. The man OF
men who can be guilty of such deliber-
ate deviltry possess the qualities out
of which anarchists, convicts and as.
sasins are made.
This desperate attempt to blaczer
Mr.. Bruce's character by bringing &
charge against him similar to the
charge against Col. Slemp, is an ack.
nowledgement of the truth, or at least
the gravity and seriousness Of the
charge against Slemp.
The most desperate charge, and one
considered most likely to injure Mr.
Bruce, is stolen from the list Of charges
made truthfully against Slemp, and
spread before the people at a time
when denial and contradiction was
almost impossible. The most they
could conjure up with perjury and
forgery, against Mr.. Bruce was only q
reprint of Col. Slemp's weakness
known and read Of all men.
For the sake Of the public good the
man or men who forged the SANDER.
