The President Writes a Letter on the Financia! Question. Atlanta, Ga. Sept. 27.—In reply toa letter from Governor Northen asking the President to give his po- sition on financial matters Mr. Cleveland has sent the following re ply: To Hon. W. J. Northen. “Executive Mansion, Washington, D. C.. Sept. 27.—My Dear Sir: I hardly know how to reply to your) letter of the 5th inst. It seems to! we that I am quite plainly on record concerning the financial question. My letter accepting the nomination to the presidency when read in con nection with the message lately sent to Congress in extraordini ry ses sion, appears to me to be very ex plicit. I want a currency that is; stable and safe in the hands of our people. Iwill not knowingly be implicated in a condition that will justly make me in the least degree answerable to any laborer or farmer in the United States for the {shrink- , age in the purchasing power of {the dollar he bas received for a full dol- lar’s worth of work, or for a good dollar’s worth of the product of his toil. I not only want our currency to be of such a character that all§kinds of dollars will be of equal purchas- ing power at home, but I want it to be of such a character as will dem- onstrate abroad our wisdom and good faith, thus placing upon a firm foundation credit among the nations of the earth. I want our financial conditions and the laws relating to our currency so safe and re assuring that those who have money will spend and invest it in business and new enterpises, instead of hoarding it. You can not cure fright by call- ing it foolish and unreasonable, and you can not prevent the frightened man from hoarding his money. I want good, sound and stable money and a condition of confidence that will keep it in use. Within the limits of what I have written, I am a friend of silver, but I believe its proper place in our cur rency can only be fixed by a read- justment of our currency legislation and the inauguration of a consistent and comprehensive financial scheme. I think such a thing can only be entered upon profitably and hope- fully after the repeal of the law) which is charged with all our finan- cial woes. In the present state of | of the public mind this law can not be built upon nor patched in such a way as to relieve the situation. T am therefore opposed to the free and unlimited coinage of silver by this country alone and independent ly, and I am in favor of the immedi- ate and unconditional repeal of the purchasing clause of the so called Sherman iaw. I confess I am astonished by the oppositionin the Senate to such prompt action as would relieve the tronage Solicited, PROPRIETORS EXCELSIOR MILLS, N & SON MISSOURI. purchased and put in order the Jer, known as the Shannon Mills. years of ‘tion to ge. od flour as can be given any- | ly ground at reasonable rates. o not treat you well you will find with Butler and Bates county, ong them. Very truly yours, present unfortunate situation. My daily prayer is that the delay oceasioned by such opposition may not be the cause of plunging the country into deeper depression than it has yet known, and that the dem. ceratic party may not be justly held responsible for such a catastrophe.

Sept. 21.—| June 1 last an order was issued sus- pending from the rolls 9,000 pen- sioners pending an_ investigation, whom it was charged did not meet) the requirements of the pension law. Subsequently this order, at the re- quest of the president, was revoked and pensioners were permitted to draw pensions until the charges| could be substantiated. Deputy Commissioner Bell to day stated that the department was now examining these cases at the rate of 1,500 a week and would complete its investigations by October 1. He es- timated that about 20 per cent. of the total number will be stricken from the rolls, about 35 per cent. will regain their original pensions and of the 80 per cent. who will be retained about 45 per cent. will be reduced 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 remedies. Deafnes causen by an inflammable condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you havea rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed deaf- ness is the result, and unless the in- flammation 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 eatarrh, which is nothing but an in- flamed condition of the mucous sur- faces.
