There are but few newspaper
publishers in rural districts who
have not received letters like the
following:
“Dear Sir: I hearby offer my
resignation as a subscriber to
your papier, it being a pamphflet
of such small konsequence as not
to benefit my family by taking
it. What you need in your shete
is branes & some one to russel

In this issue appears the an
nouncement of Walter Beard for
city marshal subject to the
voters in the election of April i
3rd. He is a home boy and has i
made a good record as an officer
of this city.
He is a young man of un
doubted courage, who promises
if elected to be faithful in the
execution of the duties of the
office and in enforcing the polic
ies of the administration.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eastacian Tube. When this
! tube is inflamed you have a rum
| bling sound or imperfect hearing,
i and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and un
less the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing
! will be destroyed forever; nine
j cases out of ten are caused by
j Catarrh, which is nothing but an
! inflamed condition of the mucous
l surfaces.
We will give One Hundred
j Dollars for any case of Deafness
1 (caused by catarrh) that cannot
be c ;red by Hall’s Catarrh Cure.

Governor Denies Any Intention of Com
muting Sentence of Danville Wife
Murderer.
Danville, March 17.—The fol
lowing is a part of a letter writ
ten by Governor Davis to one ot
the prominent citizens of Dan
ville: “I am in receipt of let
ters from your county stating
that there is considerable con
fusion there over a report that I
have not signed the death war
rant for Ince, the man who mur
dered his family in Fourche val
ley. This warrant has been
signed more than a week ago,
and his execution set for April
4. If you ‘will kindly confer
with the sheriff of your county,
Mr. Briggs, you will find that he
has the warrant. A report is
being circulated over your coun
ty that I intend to commute the
sentence of Ince after the pri
maries. This is foolish, and
simply a campaign lie, and I
trust that you will do everything
within your power to correct this
impression, because, as I havd
said above, the death warrant
has been signed and is nowr in
the hands of your sherin.
Sam T. Poe, who has been the
leading attorney in the defense
of Ince, was in Danville this
morning, and when asked by
your correspondent if there was
really a petition being circulated
in Yell county to have the sen
tence of Ince commuted, he re
plied that he knew nothing
about it, and if there was such a
petition out, as Ince’s attorney,
he would certainly know about
it.
