never have had much faith in the Ii
cense system. 1t seems as if the
sale of liquor, if tits right at all, ought
to be on the same basis as any other
line Of business, and if it is not right
and legitimate, it ought to be pro
hibited entirely. The only excuse
for license is on the grounds of rev
enue and a police regulation. If these
grounds are suffi cient reason for hav-
ing a license system the option should
rest entirely with the locality Effected
by it.

The pres INT railroad stampede
across South Dakota is quite inter
esting in comparison with the proph-
ecies made during the state capital
campaign a couple of years ago,
says the Sioux City Journal. Pierre
would put an end to the extention of
the Milwaukee west from Chamber
lain, and that vote for Mitchell
would undoubtedly put quietus up
on the plans of the Northwestern for
building west from Pierre. This year
has seen both lines built, another
building west from Evarts in the
northern part of the state, and yet
another striking for the Missouri
from Watertown, while still another
is pointing toward the capital city from
Aberdeen, with the ayowed purpose
of reaching the western confines of
the state ultimately. The location OF
the state capital proves not to be
a factor in railroad building. The
development of the country calls for
the roads, and they are getting there
as fast as they can be built.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

There is only one way to cure deafness.
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed
condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it 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 de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
