4 Correction.

Our good friend The Sun-Republic
of Dodgeville in its last issue tries to
make point in favor of its home city
and against Mineral Point. The pa
per says!
Tho receipts OF the Dodgoville postofice
for the past fiscal year were SS,ISo The re-
ceipts OF the Mineral Point postofiice were
less than $4,000. The salary OF the Dodge
vile office is 81, 200 and OF the Mineral Point
office $1,000, Various reasons have been adj
vanced why the Dodgeville office does So much
more business than the Mineral Point office.
DodEeville has 500 or 600 less population
than Mineral Point, and the latter city has
its big zinc works. but nevertheless the re-
Ceipts are ahead of those in that office
There is nG apparent cause for the wide dir
ference and IL can be attributed only tn the
steady ana healthy growth which this city Is
enjoying while the city of Mineral Point has
decreased several hundred in population
since the census OF l9oo,"
The Sun-Republic is entirely wrong
in its figures, and consequently in its
conclusions, In the first place, the
salary OF the Mineral Point postotiiee
has been raised to Sl,70o; and in the
second place, the city of Mineral Point
has not decreased in population since
1900, The state census of 1905, show
ed gain of more than 260 over the
federal census of 1900,-th census of
1900 showing population of 2,99l,
and the census of 1905 population OF
3,252. The Democrat is always glad
to report the prosperity of its neigh
boring city of Dodgeville. 1t has the
advantage Of being the county seat,
and for the information Of the Sun-Re-
public we will say that the county seat
towns always show large postal re-
ceipts.

GREATER MINERAL PDINT
The City Can be Made So by
Right Action on the part
of its People.
FAVORABLY SITUATED
And Surrounded by a Productive
Country and Beautiful
Scenery.
A MARVEL TO VISITORS.

The people of Mineral Point should
work individually and collectively to
advance the interests of the city.
In the first place every resident
should realize the fact that he or she
can do something for the betterment Of
of the town. Unsghtly objects should
be kept from view, Barns and other
outbuildings should not be erected
along streets, and in cases where they
have been so erected, they should be
kept as clean and neat as possible, so
that they may not become nuisances to
owners of adjoining property. Care
in this regard not only indicates q
desire to make the town attractive, but
also a desire to carry out the spirit of
the Golden rule.
In the second place the city author
tiles should not be content with the ad-
vancement already made in the i'm
provement of walks and streets. The
best is none too good for Mineral
Point, and citizens will sanction any
expenditure which may be necessary
to inagurate and carry forward Il
right system of street making. Antt-
quated methods should be discarded,
and approved methods adopted. In
this regard we would call attention to
the fact that an investigation is being
made of the roads of the state by the
state Geological and Natural History
Survey, with a view of giving inform
alton in regard to proper methods of
road building. Articles will appear
showing what different Wisconsin
towns are doing for good roads, and
the need of trained road builders, One
of these articles appears on page 3 of
this issue of The Democrat, under the
heading Roads Investigated"
In the third place, good and hearty
support should be given to every effort
to advance the interests of Mineral
Point. The Advancement association
should not be allowed to die. What
other cities have done and are doing
Mineral Point can do. Richard b,
Watrous, secretary of the Milwaukee
citizens business league tells how "the
league was organized in response to a
general demand that there be a system
attic canvass to secure conventions, "
and Mr.. Watrous further tells that,
following out the purpose for which
the league was organized, it has for
the last nine years conducted its work
persistently and effectively and that
during the time fully 600 conventions
have been held in Milwaukee as a di-
rect or indirect result of it's efforts.
The fact shows what can be done by
organization and rightly directed
efforts. Individual effort should be
supplemented with organization of the
citizens to accomplish objects sought
to be attained. The need of work for
the towns advancement in many re-
spects must be apparent to all.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they 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
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
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness (caused
by catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
lars free. F. j. CHENEY & co.
