BEHOVES THE CAUSE
OF CATARRH
No remedy that docs not entirely remove the cause of Catarrh from the
Wood v ill ever make a permanent cure of the trouble. Just as long as the
circulation remains cont aminated with the impurities and catarrhal matters
which produce the trouble, the mucous membranes or inner linings of the
body will be kept in a state of irritation and disease. Sprays, lotions and
other local applications will sometimes temporarily relieve the tight, full
feeling in the head, buzzing noises in the ears, uncomfortable, stuffy feeling
of the nostrils, and help to loosen the mucus in the throat; but Catarrh is a
constitutional blood disorder and until it has bceu entirely driven from the
system there can be no permanent cure, S. S. S. cures Catarrh by removing
the cause from the blood. It attacks the disease at its head and by thor
oughly purifying and cleansing the circulation, and ridding it of every par
ticle of impurity, and at the same time enriching the blood, allows the
inflamed and irritated membranes to heal, improves the general health, and
stops every disagreeable symptom. S. S. S. reaches down to the very
bottom and leaves no trace of the disease in the system. Book on Catarrh
and any medical advice free to all who write.

it was used with excellent results.
Then there remains the recall of
judges. Courts have repeatedly de
feated the morals of a commonwealth.
"By the abuse of the power to de
clare laws unconstitutional, the courts
have become a law making instead
of a law-enforcing agency. Here again
the settled will of society to correct
of applying the recall in any shape
is one of expediency merely
"Either the recall will have to be
adopted or else it will have to be
made easier than it now is to get rid
not merely of a bad judge, ibut of a
jitd.ee who. however virtuous, has
grown out of touch with social needs
and facts that he is unfit to longer
render good service on the bench.
"When a judge decides a constitu
tional question, when he decides
what the people as a whole can or
cannot do, the people should have
the right to recall thai decision if
they think it wrong. We should hold
the judiciary in all respect, but it is
both absurd and degrading to make
a fetich of a judge or any one else.
Again and again in the past Jus-
iTinfesse.l evils li.ls heen cpt fit nqncht
t.y those who place 'metphysicies tice nas been scandalously obstructed
above life. . It is the courts not the
constitutions, that are at fault. It is
only by the process which James Rus
sell Iwowell when answering the critics
of Lincoln called 'pettifogging the
constituii'm,' that constitutions which
were designed to protect society can
thus be ma le to defeat the common
good. Here again the recall is a
recall of the administration of jus
tice back from academical refine
ment to social service.
"Never forget that the judge is
just as much the servant of the peo
ple as any other official. Of course
he must act conscientiously. He
must not do anything wrong because
there is a popular clamor for it. But
in their turn the people must follow
their conscience and when they have
definitely decided on a given policy
they must have public servants who
will carry out that policy. Keep
clearly In mind the distinction be
tween the end and the means to at
tain that end. Our aim is to get the
type of judge that I have described
to keep him on the bench as long as
rossible, and to keep off the bench,
and If necessary, take off the bench
the wrong type of judge. In some
communities one method may work
well which in other communities does
not work well and each community
should adopt and preserve or reject
a given method according to its prac
tical workiog. Therefore the question
CATAISIW, ASTHMA, COLDS AND
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
QUICKLY GO.
Here are some symptoms of ca
tarrh; if you have any of them get
rid of them by breathing HTOMEI;
it is guaranteed to banish catarrh.
Is your throat raw.
Do you sneeze often
Is your breath foul
Are your eyes watery?
Do you take cold easily?
Is your nose stopped up
Do you have to spit often?
Are you worse in damp weather?
Do you blow your nose?
Are you dosing your sense of smell?
Does your mouth taste bad morn
ings Do you have a dull feeling in the
head?
Do you have a discharge from the
nose?
Does mucous drop in back of
throat?

by state courts declaring state laws
in conflict with the federal constitu
tmn. although, the .supreme court of
the nation, has never so decided, or
had even decided in a contrary sense.
When the supreme court of the state
declares a given statute unconstitu
tional because in conflict with the
state or national constitution, its op
inion should be subject to revision by
the people themselves
"Many eminent lawyers who more
or less frankly disbelieve in our en
tire American system of government,
for, by and, of the people, violently
antagonize this proposal. They be
lieve, and some times assert, that
the American people are not fitted for
popular government, and that it is
necessary to keep the judiciary inde
pendent of the 'majority. or of all the
people;' that there must be no appeal
to the people from the decision of a
court in any case; and that therefore
the judges are to be established as
sovereign rulers over the people. I
take absolute issue with all those who
hold such a position. If the American
people are not fit for popular govern
ment, and if they should of right be
the servants and nof the masters of
the men whom they have put in of
fice, then Lincoln's work was wasted
and the whole system of government
on which this great democratic re
public rests is a failure. I believe, on
the contrary, that the American peo
ple are fit for complete self govern
ment and that we of this republic
have more nearly realized than any
other people on earth the ideal of
justice obtained through genuine pop
ular rule.
"Our whole history shows that the
American people are more often
sound in their decisions than is the
case with any of the governmental
bodies to whom for their conveni
ence, they have delegated portions of
their power. If this is not so, then
there is no justification for the ex
istence of our government; and if it
is so, then there is no justification
for refusing to give the people the
real, and not merely the nominal, ul
timate decision on questions of con
stituti'Wial law.
"A typical case was the daeision
rendered but a few months ago by
the court of appeals of my own state,
the state of Xew York, declaring un
constitutional the workmens' compen
sation act. In their decision the
Judges almitted the wrong and the
suffering caused by the practices
against which the law was aimed.
They admitted that other civilized
nations had abolished the wrongs and
practice. But they took the ground
that the constitution of the United
Slates Instead of being nn Instrument
to secure justice, had been ingenu
ously revised absolutely to prevent
justice. They insisted that the clause
in the constitution which forbade the
taking of property without due pro
cess of law forbade the effort which
had been made in the law to distrib
ute among all the partners in nn en
terprise the effects of the injuries to
life or limb of a wage-worker. No
anarchist orator, raving against the
constitution ever framed nn indict
ment so.
"Many of the judges of that court
I know personally, and for them I
have a profound regard. Even for
as flagrant a decision as this I would
not vote for their recall; for I have
no doubt the decision was rendered
in accordance with their ideas of
duty. But most emphatically I do
wish that the people should have the
right to recall the decision itself nnd
authoritatively to stamp with disap
proval what cannot but seem to the
ordinary plait) citizen a monstrous
misconstruction of the constitution, a
monstrous preverslon of ihe consti
tution into an instrument for the
perpetuation of social and Industrial
wrong .and for the oppression of the
weak nnd helpless.
"No ordinary amendment of the
constitution would meet this type of
case; and Intolerable delay and in
justice woulj be caused by the effort
to get such amendment not to men
tion the fact that the very judges
who are at fault would proceed to
construe the amendment. In such a
case the fault ia not with the eonsti
tution; the fault is in the judges' con
struction of the constitution; and
what is required is power for the peo
pie to reverse this false and wrong
construction.
"The judges and courts have de
cided every which way, and it is fool
ish to talk of the sanctity of a judge
made law which half of the judges
strongly denounce. If there must be
decision by a close majority, then let
the people step in and let it be their
majority that decides. According to
one of the highest judges then and
now on the supreme court of the na
tion, we have lived for a hundred
years under a constitution which per
mits a national income tax, until
suddenly by one vote the supreme
court reversed its previous decision
for a century and said that for a
century we had been living under a
wrong interpretation of the constitu
tion (that is, under a wrong consti
tution), and therefore in effect, es
tablished a new constitution which
we are. now laboriously trying to am
end so as to get it back to be the con
stitution that for a hundred years
everybody, including the supreme
court, thought it to be.
"While it is necessary to have
the right kind of governmental ma
chinery, yet that the all-important
matter i sto have the right kind of a
man behind the law. A good consti
tution, and good laws under the con
stitution and fearless and upright of
ficials to administer the laws all
these are necessary."

Deafness Cannot lie Cured
by local applications, aa tby cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There ia
only one way to cure deafness, and tbat la
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
cansed br an Inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian . Tube.
When this tube Is Inflamed you have
rumbling sound or Imperfect bearing, and
when It is entirely closed. Deafness Is tbe
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to Its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever: nine cases out of ten are caus
ed by Catarrh, which la nothing but an
Inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
