ment that there was no scandal at
tached to the acquisition Of the Pan
anna canal franchise and property
from the European holders.
It is not always best to lend the

lions about Republican rascality any
more than it is to give credence to
the vilIainous inventions about Dem
ocratic dishonesty.
We would have to be shown by the
most clear, exhaustive and convinc-
ing testimony that the men named

ty Of the larceny Of millions of dol
lars or any other sums under such

Men should be slow to believe and

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 cOnstitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining Of the
eustachian tube. When this tube gets infiamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, 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 destroyed forever;
nine cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case Of deafness (caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars, free.

DEMOCRATS MADE GREAT GAIN

The total popular vote of the vari-
Gus presidential candidates at the last
national election was made known
Tuesday Of this week in official form
by the fling of the last of the official
votes, that of Michigan. The totals
show the following: Taft, Republi-
can, 1851. SIG; Bryan, Democrat, g.
S9S, 1872; Debbs, Socialist, 447,651;
Chain, Prohibition, 241, 252; Hisgen,
Independence, 1915, Watson, Pop
ulist, 1851; Gilhaus, Socialist-La-
Dor, 15,42l. The total of all is A.

Florida's pardoning board seemed
determined last week to wipe off
their slate all applications for par
dons, both old and new, so as not to
bequeath to Gov. Gilchrist any of
the burdens belongingto hispredeces-
sor's administration. Fifty-two cases
were considered, only two of which
were denied. The greater number
were pardoned conditionally, several
were committed, and one or two re-
stored to citizenship. The case of
]. N. Strobar, a railroad agent of
Alachua county, was one of the most
prominent of the conditionally par
doned. Convicted of embezzlement
of the company's funds, Strobar was
sentenced to three years in the peni-
oentiary. About one year of his time
has already passed. Another case
was that of D. A. Minor, convicted
in the Duval county court or criminal
record of larceny and receiving stolen
goods. His petitions were signed,
not only by a large number of prom
inent citizens Of Duval, but also by
the governor and governor elect of
Georgia. Minors pardon will &c
into effect December 20.

LICENSE LAW a! !! !!
REPRESENTATIVE BREWERS AND
pIsTlLLERs PLAN OFFSET
MEASURE.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Jan. 21.-A mod
ell license law, to Offset the demands
Of the Prohibitlonists, is urged by
representative brewers, distilIers and
liquor dealers who assembled in Lou
isyille to-day for the first national
convention of the Model License
League. The deliberations OF the IL
quor men will be continued to-mor.
row. 1t is hoped to start public cam.
paign in which the model license law
will be offered as the solution of the
problem of the regulation and control
OF the liquor traffic. Prohibition has
become paramount issue in the south
and is rapidly spreading throughout
the country, and 1t is the hope of head
Ing on this anti-saloon crusade that
the Model License League has in view.
Liquor men state that intoXicants are
used in as large quantities in dry
territory as in wet" States. but that
the trade is carried on by the mail
order whiskey houses. 1t is expected
that the proposed model" law gov.
erning the sale of ardent spirits will
be introduced in many State legisla'
lures in the near future.
Colonel Thomas NJ. Gilmore is the
president of the league and the Off
clal evangelist of the new liquor law.
He urges the Importance OF the wine.
beer, whiskey and collateral trades
becoming a unit In the defense OF the
trade and taking firm stand for the
elevation OF the saloon and the wiping
out of the low dives and the cheap
groggeries, which are branded as q
menace to the trade.
Some of the ideas embodied in the
leagues recommendations for a model
law are: That all licenses now out
standing be continued unless cancelled
by majority OF the voters; that the
licenses be transferable. and that no
licenses should be issued under the
proportion of less than one to every
500 population.
Representatives are here from all
the leading brewing companies OF St.
Louis, Milwaukee and other centers
OF the industry, and from large mum
Der of the great dlstilling concerns of
the country. In addition to speeches
by the liquor men, addresses will BE-
made by several prominent Legislators
and men OF prominence in the public
affairs of Kentucky and the country
at large Malstors, coopers, copper.
smiths and others indirectly interest.
ed in the liquor trade are also repre-
sented at the convention.

GRAFTON, Jan. 21.-It was the in

A large force Of men are now at
work setting up the big engine at the
power plant and as soon as this is
accomplished It will only be a matter
Of 4 day or two until the clang Of the
cars will mingle with the other street
noises, giving the city metropolitan
air.
Both the cars HAYS good seating

improved pattern and when the first
one runs it will be the advent Of a
new era in Grafton. the best city in
the State for steady. substantial

The city has been forging stesdily
