VERDICT OF THE CORONER's
JURY

After being out since Saturday. the
corOner's jury, empanelled for the
purpose of taking evidenvce and fix
ing the responsibility for the fearful
wreck of early Saturday morning, in
which five people lost their lives. re-
turned a verdict Monday afternoon
that these men lost their lives in a
wreck Perhaps the jury Of inquest.
knowing that the circuit court meets
today and that the whole matter will
be reviewed by the grand jury, did
not feel it necessary to go into a long
investigation TO fix the responsibility
If the accident was caused from gross
carelessness, as is generally believed.
it will be the duty Of the courts to try
the parties at fault. There are alto
gether too many wrecks, and if the
guilty ones are held responsible it
may work a very salutary reform.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way TO cure deaf
ness and that is by constitutional iem-
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition Of the mucous lining
Of the Eustachian tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing. and when
1t Is entirely closed. Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restor-
ed to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh.
which is nothing but an infamed CON
ditiOn Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
reward for any case of Deafness
(caused by Catarrh) that cannot be
cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send

PUBLIC HEALTH AND CONSERVATION.

Prof. Irving Fisher, the eminent
political economist of Yale University
who In one of his papers before the
recent International Tuberculosis
Congress- in Washington declared that
consumption costs the people OF the
United States more than a billion
dollars year, is preparing an ex-
haustive report for the National Con-
servation Com ission, which will
contain not only these figures but
similar data on the economic loss to
the country from all other prevent
able diseases.
Prof. Fisher is a member OF the
National Conservation Commissi on
and for many years has been carry
ing on studies along these lines.
The Commission received letters from
physicians all over country urging it
to consider the bearing of public
health on the economic efficiency o
the nation in It's efforts to ascertain
the resources of the country.
The Commission from the Begin
ming has contemplated reports on the
economic aspects of several phases of
the Conserv alton movement which
affect the duration and effectiveness
of human life. but Prof Fisher has
undertaken to prepare comprehen-
sive statement OF the whole subject
OF the relations of public health to
the general field of Conservation. and

ventable diseases and unnecessary
deaths.

summary Of the siituation ever made.
At the tuberculosis con greas. Prof
Fisher declared that 1888. 900 persons
die OF consumption every year. The
cost OF medical attendance and the
loss of earnings before death average
at least $2, 400, he said, while IL to
this is added the money that might
have been earned with health, the
total loss in each case is about
$S, 900. He pointed out also that the
disease usually attacks young men
and women just at the time when
they are beginning to earn money
and cuts off their earning power for
about three years on an average, be-
fore they die.
This subject Of the economic value
to the country of the general raising

governors conference at the White
House in May. Dr. George M. Ko-

AGAINST MR. TAFT
CONGRESSMAN SHERWOOD AD-
 DRESSES LABOR MASS MEETING
Declares That the War secretary's Presidential Candidacy Is IRimIcaI to the Interests of the Work
 inEmen.

Toledo, O., March 22.-At a union labor mass meeting attended by 5000 persons here tonight, Congressman Isaac R. Sherwood of this district. de- clared the presidential candidacy of Secretary of War William H. Taft to be inimical to the interests of the work ingmen. The congressman also con- demned President Roosevelt for the presence of Federal troops at Goldfeld last winter. 4r
 General Sherwood said in part:
 ITO William Howard Taft are we indebted for government by injunction and the recent rulings of the supreme court on the question of the boycott and blacklist. Taft's decisions. while layers Union in Cincinnati and the strike of the Brotherhood of Locomo- tive Engineers on the Ann Arbor Rail- road, later, have been made the basis for nearly all the recent decisions of the supreme court detrimental to or ganized labor. And Taft will continue to furnish future decisions if he is elected to the presidency. With the president lies the power of appoint ment to the supreme bench for life. In order to have a supreme court that is in sympathy with the people as a whole you must elect presidents wno are in entire sympathy with the peo- pie"
 Representative Sherwood declared that his speech on the floor of the House February 3. had been misrepre- scented by press correspondents in Washington, which representatives charged him with holding the president responsible for the present financial crisis.
 "I did not attack the president on that score" said General Sherwood what l really did was to denounce the president for using government employees to secure a private report on the conditions in Goldheld during the miners strike.
 "'I did not condemn him for sending the troops at the call of the governor. but I did condemn him when, after learning by private report that the troops were not needed. he not only failed to make the report public, but also failed to rectify his mistake by withdrawing the soldiers from Gold field.'
