There Is more catarrh in this Sec
ton Of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced 1t local dis
ease and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced 1t
incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be constitutional disease,
and, therefore, requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney
& Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. 1t is
taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts d.

faces Of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case 1t fails

disp6sing Of his product, may he not
at least look to the greatest public
good? Since his interests must be
secondary, would It not be better
for the public good for the farmer to
hold the two-thirds of the crop until
foreign trade pays an additional
two or three cents per pound, that
is its real value. This would really
add to the volume OF currency, not
to mention the Incidental advantage
to farmers.
1t Is not just possible, Mr.. Editor,
that instead of depressed finances,
being due to concerted action by the
farmers, in holding back their cot
ton, depressed prices for cotton may
be due to concerted action by finan-
ciers, in holding back their money?
Is 1t not possible that this panic,
coming just at this time, was started
with this purpose, and that it has
gotten beyond the control of it's pro-
moters? s
But we will not be drawn further
