SHOWS THE NEED
 OF AUTO BUREAU.
Automobile Associations of the State
 Will Endorse Plan.

That an effort will be made which will be widely supported to create an auto bureau separate from the Secre- tary of states office to have charge of the enormous amount of work aSso- ciated with automobiles was learned this week. The autom obile associations of Connecticut, including the New Ha- ven club, will endorse the plan, it is understood claiming that the proper supervision of automobiling and the necessary amount of work to Keep down auto accidents and weed out the present arrangement by which the secretary of state deyotes only part of his time to these duties.
 That something will have to be done in the near future to solve the prob lem which the office of the state sec retary faces as the result of the ever growing list of automobile hearings is the opinion of State Secretary Charles D. Burnes, who will leave the office next January. According to MT. Burnes the work of hearing the automobile cases under present conditions is a the hearings ne says he has spent a large part of his annual salary of $1, 800 on hotel bills and travelling expenses. The more cases there are the more money he has to srend, says MT. Burnes.
 Now that it's all over but tie shout ing, I want to say I'm glad to get out of it." said MT. Burncs. They expect too much of the secretary for the amount of money they give him. My office is the most woefuIly ursHcrpaid one in the United States. It must have been bad enough before the automobile hearings begun. Then the secretary had a breathing spell once in a while but now there is no letup.
 "The business in the office of the secretary has trebled since Albert Phillips was in office"

NON. JARED Y. SANDERS NOMINATED
FOR CONGRESS.

In nominating ex-Gov. Jared Y.
Sanders to succeed Hon. Louis l..
Morgan, the voters of the Sixth Con-
gressional District have made most
wise selection. 1t was inconceivable
to us that the result could have been
otherwise, for while we have had the
greatest respect for his opponent,
Hon. Amos L. Ponder, yet at the same
time we consider the abilities of Gov.
Sanders so superior that we could not
see how the voters of that district
could hesitate about making a choice
between them.
Gov. Sanders will now enter the
halls of Congress where we and all
Louisianaians know that he will make
good.
We congratulate the voters OF the
Sixth District on their wise choice
and we congratulate the Governor on
his nomination, and we hope and be-
lieve that he will make such q great
success in his new field of usefulness
that he will remain in the National
Congress for many years to win laurels
for himself and honor for his native

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 only by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an inflamed condi-
ton of the mucous lining of the Eusta-
chin Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound of imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the in
namation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases out
Of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
sny case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh
