EDIroR GREAT WEST:
Be it known to the brothers at
large that the Athol farmers alliance
No. 214, formerly of Athol town. has
been re-organized and moved to- a
lively and energetic point called
Plainview.
Furthermore, that we heartily
apologize for the backwardness of
our alliance while located in Athol
town, but glory that the surviving
spark has kindled into a mighty
flame which is scorching the wings of
gold bugs and all like evils.
Furthermore, that we, the members
of the Athol alliance in regular meet
ing assembled, heartily endorse the
work OF the st. Louis Conference, and
also that we demand that the dele
rates to the convention be cautious
as to whom they select as state and
national officers, for, upon them
largely depends the reform which we
must have "amicaby if we can,
violently five must"
The Athol alliance is with the work.
Ten acres of wheat will be put in. the

lowing resolutions were adopted:
1. Resolved, That we favor the
National Union Company's co-opera-

alliance in the county to discuss the
same.
2. We believe that the best method
for a meeting between the different

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 constitu
tional remedies. Deafness js caused
by an lnfamed condition OF the mu-
cous lining OF the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing. and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out
of ten are caused by catarrh. which
is nothing but an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured
