THE NEW YORK RECOUNT
A FARCE.

The Republican State Committee of
New York decided TO contest the cleo
ton of the Democratic candidate elect
for Lieutenant-G Governor, and employ
ed counsel to have counted the void
and invalid ballots returned, thinking
this would land their man. They did
commence, and behold the sudden
changed They canvassed one district
where Hearst had returned for him %
votes, and by this recount of returned
void ballots fOundthat2O0Hearst ballots
should have been counted for him,
thus giving him clearly 295 votes where
he only received %. \ sudden halt
came, and counsel announced that
they wound not worry the people longer
with contest, that the gains and
losses were about equal, and thus the
farce ended.
Mr.. Hearst should have considered
when he entered the race that the
trusts would never permit him to be
Governor, that the trust element of
both parties would conceive in some
way to Illustrate the will of the people,
and they were equal TO the emergency.
The trust well knew that the fight OF
Hearst to compel them to comply
with the law if elected Governor was
what they wanted last of all, and that
he was n man TO carry out what h,
said. AS Bourke Cochran we'll sal,
during the canvass, if Hearst WA
elected the seas would be white witt
private yachts, loaded with millionaire
leaving the country TO save them iron
going TO the pen for violating laws
In this great fight the trusts won, tn
people lost, and the oppression of tn
masses by the trusts continue

Is Disease a Crime :?

Not very long ago, a popular magazine
published an editorial article in which
the writer asserted, in substance, that all
disease should be regarded as criminal.
Certain Il is, that much Of the sickness
and suffering OF mankind is due TO tho
violation OF certain OF Natures laws.
But TO say that all sickness should DO
regarded as criminal, must appeal TO
every reasonable Individual as radically
wrong.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
WRECKER."

That great paper. The Sunday School
Times, says there are "wreckers" con-
nected with every Sunday school. They
are the teachers who attend irregular
one Sunday, absent two.
These are the people who "wreck"
their classes, and the school. Add to
this class the prominent members or
officers of the school, who these, too, are
wreckers. They tear down faster than
they build up. To this class might also
be added the members of the church,
who, without a reasonable excuse, per-
sistently or indifferently, remain away
these absent members, whose spiritu-
al well-being, and that Of the church
as well, demands and needs their best
efforts, are wreckers, as efficient, if not
as criminal as any pirate that ever
sailed the seas, CT the school, the
church and themselves.

fruit of good manners.


The point Of this article is, that If
the majority of the children of to day
are taught good manners" it must be
done, in the majority of cases, by the
teachers in the public school. Parents.
these days, are too busy, or so much
taken up with other things as TO pre-
vent them from doing more for their
children than feed and clOthe them
raise" them instead of "rearing"
them. This duty is one of many de
volving largely-in many cases entire
ly, upon the teachers i'm the public
school, for the reason, too, perhaps,
that SO many parents themselves,
haven't good manners. and of course
cannot teach the same TO their child
rem. ITS up to" the teachers, and
herein consists one, and by no means
the least, of their complicated tasks.

COURTESY AT SCHOOL. /"

The above subject is one of several
to be discussed at the teachers meet
ing here next week. We don't know
just what particular phase of "court-
esy" was in the mind OF the party who
put this subject on the program, nor
what range or direction the discussions
viii take. II We may be pardoned for
making suggestion, it is that the
subject of "good manners" be included
in the discussion. Certainly true it is
that the boys and girls, as a rule, are
lacking in old fashioned "good man
ners," as well as courtesy. Good man
ners Is the foundation Of courtesy, and
therefore courtesy Is the result and

anxious TO defeat Hearst, just read
the list of this gangs contributions to

will see where they were. Governor
Hughes hands are now tied from pro-

In this he is somewhat handicapped

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 infiamed con-
ditiOn OF the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
innamed you have a rnmbling sound
OF imperfect hearing, and when il is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored TO It's
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.
