l wish to attempt to correct an
idea which many of our people
have gotten by the statements
made in last weeks Forum by G..
S. Gibbs. hope no one will
think me fighting Gibbs. as We
are yet the best of friends.
The White City, as you know,
is the SWEETEST park near the city
and the owners had leased the
management to a company in
st. Louis, who are southerners,
and did not treat all fair, but
now the White City is in charge
of Comptroller Zimmerman who
assures equal protection and jus.
tice hereafter
believe chautauqua run by
our people is a grand thing, but
no fair minded man will hold
that it should or could. take the
place of the celebration as the
promoters of any chautauqua are
after the money, and all emanci-
patton celebration is not to make
money, but to recall the past me-
moirs and show forth our prog
ress with glad tidings.
Zimmerman is now ia charge,
and he is the man Gibbs wanted
to be mayor in preference to Roy
Reece and was ready to fight for
Zimmerman until be pulled out
The reason Gibbs talks as he
does he has been caught by Lick
Greek, add wants to see his side
win.
No one has right to dissuade
another going to White City or
Lick Creek, we are free, / advise
you go to both places.
Yours for success.

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 con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inAsmed condition of the mucous lining
OF the Eustschaa Tube. When this tube is
iu1amed you have rumbling sound or I'M
perfect bearing, and when it is entirely
closed DegfneSs 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 ere
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inhamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any

ACCORDING 10 Congressman Tawney,
lately chairman Of the House appropria-
tons cor mittee, the decline of The State
governments in prestige and power is
the fault of the people themselves and Of
their representatives in Congress. New
federal services in respect to local affairs
are being created every year at the
instance of every section and members
of all parties-meat inspections, soil
analyses in States where the United
States does not own any land, the care Of
timber in State reserves and like matters
with which the local authorities have
hitherto very properly concerned them
selves. Maryland has recently relin-
pushed sovereignty over her oyster beds;
the Southern States have surrendered
their quarantine jurisdiction to the feder-
al government; where ten years ago
there were $50 federal inspectors ex-
pending 81, 800, 900, we now have an
army Of them costing 50, 600, 900 year
The motive in nearly all cases, says the
Philadelphia Record, is desire to avoid
payment for the services cut of local
taxation. By putting the burden on the
federal government it is imagined that
the people OF the localities get the ser
vices for nothing. AS if federal tax
alton did not bear as heavily because it
is indirect

TgE och anniversary Of the birth OF

younger generation, all animated with an
enthusiasm meet for the occasion. They
gathered to pay fitting tribute to one OF
the most brilliant men that have appear

ferson Davis, which had long been dis
torted by hostile pens, shines out with
luslre as he is better known and under
stood. aud the time has come when peo-
ne Of both sections OF the country are
proud to place him in the galaxy OF the
great. Baptised by fire in the war with
Mexico while young man, he attracted
attention. aud gradually assembled the
ladder Of fame until he became MEM
her Of the cabinet of his country.
When his own section could no longer
tolerate the hanelul conditions that sur
rounded it 10 the federal union and the
time had come for the Southern States
to exercise the privilege that had been
accorded them from the first to withdraw
from the union, there was spontaneous
call TO him to assume the Presidency Of
the Southern Confederacy. His labors
aud self denial3 during the four year.
that followed may never be fully known,
bnt we know he sacrificed everything he
psssessed for the cause he had espoused.
When tho conflict closed he was-ss were
nearly all his confreres at that time-mi-
nus everything. The United Daughters OF
the C3nfederacy, to whom too much
praise cannot be accorded, have laborec
diligently these many years to rear the
beautiful monument which was unveiled
today. While primarily it will PeTpetu-
