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 constitunal reme-
dies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous I'm.
ing Of the Eustachian tube. When
this tube is infamed you have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result; and unless the inhamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.

Special to THE LEADER:
KINGFIsHER, okla. Nov. 2S.-This
was a red-letter day for Kingiisher
The streets were thronged with peo-
pie and the hotels we're densely
packed. Private houses, and even
barns, were brought into requisition
to shelter the visitors
The one topic of conversation on the
streets and in the business houses was
the statehood convention, ard mer-
chants enjoyed thriving business, and
country people from miles around
were drawn to the city, principally to
attend the convention and witness the
proceedings, but while here they
loosened their purse strings and laid in
the supply of provisions which should
have been done on Saturday.
Kingfisher. although n progressive
aud thrifty town, does not get many
such gatherings, in fact, never had
one like this before, and consequently Y
her people were up and doing to
gather in the enthusiasm and shekels
As early as one o'clock people began
winding their way to the Auditorium
and at quarter to o'clock, the
spacious building was packed with
humanity.
At . o'clock this afternoon the big
convention convened. From the start
the enthusiasm was great, and each
county was represented by its full
quota of delegates as follows;

some prosy and prosai,, others prac.
tical and pertinent, and some delegates
seemed desirous Of memorializing con-
gress on every question under the sun
save the one principal 1uestiou-state-
hood
The ChicEasaw problem came up t1f
discussion and one delegate remarked
"The Chickasaw Nation to-day is ready
to take its lands in scvcralty. The
commission appointed to- treat with
the 1--WE civilized tribes have been orr
dered to the field. They go with scaled
instructions They will make fair
propositions to these natious, which
will recommend themselves To the vast
majority. If tho chiefs to whom these
propositions will be presented, either
through ignorance, raScality or
viciousness, refuse to give proper
consideration to the governments ul-
tinatum, they will be gladly received

That four or five should use the rev
cnues of the five nations for their ag-
grandi2ement is outrageous and will
be tolerated 20 longer, and congress
will not lend itself neither will the
interior department, to any such un-
just proceedings
After several hours of convention
izing" the delegates formally relieved
the monotony by getting down to real
business.
Stirring resolutions were adopted
favoring single statehood, with
divisions of the common
domain of the five civilized tribes,
within alienable reservations of 100
acres to each individual
The memorial and resolutions
further ask for the dissolution of all
tribal relations and the abrogation Of
all cattle leases.
The memorial drawn up for presen-
tation to congress, is yoluminous ana
wordy, but sets forth the desire of the
convention in telling form.
