Southeast Association Discusses Plan to SuppIant
Officer of Deeds by Permanent Probate Court

The Southeast Washington Citizens
Association object to the appointment
Of a negro as recorder Of deeds. and as
President Taft's recent appointment Is
in line with his predecessors in office,
they suggest the appointment OF a judge
to take care Of the probate business of
the District. and thus do away with the
position of recorder OF deeds.
John Adams, who fostered the change
at last nights meeting, spoke Of the
time when a negro was first appointed
recorder Of deeds by ex-President Cleve-
land, and OF the number of white women
employed in the Office who had to put
up with the insults heaped upon them.
Mr.. Adams said this has continued up
to the present time, each President hav-

Should Become a Law.

The MESSENGER desires to
commend a bill of Representa-.
tive Beacham, of Baltimore. in
troduced by him on Monday
last. The bill provides that il
shall be unlawful for any firm
or corporation to use a firm
name or title similar to that of
any other concern doing bust
ness in the same place. The
penalty provided for violation
of the act is $4,000 a day. 1t
is to be hoped that the Legisla-
ture will pass this bill and the
Governor will sign it.
When a firm or an individual
has struggled hard perhaps for
years TO make a reputation for
himself or his business it is next
to stealing for another man oil
firm to come along and adopt
the same title, the apparent OBJ
ject being to profit by another
mans toll and business reputa-
tiOn.

A SaiaHed States Attorney.

We understand that a bill
has been placed in the hands of
the Worcester delegation in the
General Assembly. making
the office of States Attorney
for Worcester County a salaried
office, the amount of salary be-
ing placed at $4,000 a year.
This is about what the office
now averges, and it is held by
the County Commissioners and
others that by placing the
States Attorney on a salary
the expenses of the Office will
be considerably less to the
County than they now are un-
der the fee system. This mat
ter has been Investigated and a
salary has been adopted in
several other counties for the
reason that il has been discover
ed that some States Attorneys,
over anxious to enhance the
value of their office, have made
mountains out of many diminu-
tive mole hills. manufacturing
out of same criminal prosecu-
ton at enormous expense, max :
ing fees for themselves and en-
failing enormous costs upon
the people for witness fees. ETC.,
in insignificant complaints. No
such condition has ever existed
in Worcester, and no such
charge can be brought against
any States Attorney we have
ever had, but we may not be
exempt in the future from this
charge. The Office in the future
may became a burden upon us,
as it is upon some of the other
counties. The fee system in all
public offices has been shown
to be unwise. and as matter Of
economy public sentiment
throughout the State is demand
ing the abolition of the fee sys-
tenn and the establishment Of
the salary system instead

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 inhamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube When this tube is in
famed you have rumbline sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed. deafness is the result. and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
