Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets in1amed you have rumb!ing
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 its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but All inf1amed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)

SALVATION ARMY SPLIT.

Ballington and Mrs. Booth Tell More Of
S. "&t' Its Causes. s2&&T n
New. York, April 13.--Commander
and Mrs. Ballington Booth gave out a
five-column statement Sunday night
giving officially some of the reasons for
having foresworn allegiance to foreign
headquarters. NE vital points in the
statement are thu 1T international head
quarters there nad come to he a positive
hatred of everything American. o.
iections were urged by Gen. Booth
against the display of the national flag
upon badges and i'll halls and homes.
He said the time had arrived to cease
carrying the stars and stripes at the
head of parades. He objected to the
use of the eagle upon crests, and con-
stantly spoke deprecatingly of the
country and Of its people and its insti-
tutions.
The statement says that the attempt
was made to annex the army in the
United States to that of Canada, AID
that. in spite of the protestations OF
the writer's, they were forced to make
81 partial annexation, and atthe present
time the army work in Dakota, North
Montana and North Washington is
governed from Toronto, and it
is said that the, officers hardly
dare to let the citizens of these states
know that their money goes to Ca
madam headquarters.

statement continues, 1.-THE unjust man
ifestos and un-Christian assertions
made by the leaders of the army and
their representatives in this country,
particularly their comparison of our
movement with the Moore scandal,
their statement that we fell beneath
the art of flattery and temptation,' the
unrebuketl and excused assertion by
one of their trusted staffs that (Ball-
ington Booth) am insane, and the most
abominable reflections upon the private
character of Mrs. Booth, which have
proceeded from another staff officer
have been sufficient reason for refusing
to entertain any suggestions of return
ing the ranks of the old movement.

squatters and Boomers.

The sooners who have aEquatted on
township $50 are being driven out by
the Indian police, and, while no blood.
shed has occurred, there is some ugly
talk. This township is in dispute and
the land office officials have ,:.sti nc
tions not to take filings on land in it.
The other townships withdrawn from
settlement are: 140-39, 1927, 1896,
and w ~. Both ISL snd 1853 are located
in the northeastern part'of the reser-
walton, and are tamarack lands, not fit
for settlement, anyway. The best fea-
ture of the Red lake opening, so far, is
the impetus given to the sale of loose
farming lands in that vicinity. In one
day the sales by local real estate men,
of Red Lake Falls, aggregated over 10
quarter sections and from IS to $40,
lying in contiguous townships. The
streets present an interesting sight,
lined on each side with q motley throng
of strangers, and the prairie schooner
looming up all in the center. All day
and each day the crowd grows greater.
1t is remarkable, considering that the
opening is still month off. The set
tiers driven from township $50 are COM
ing back to the city.
The Pine Sale.
The Red Lake pine will he scheduled
for sale at So per 1000 feet, the mini
mum price fixed by law. The govern
ment has no information to permit a
grading of several prices. It was con-
cluded it would be better to put it all
in at the minimum and trust to compe-
tition to raise this figure to the value of
individual tracts. The only thing that
might defeat this would be a combina-
ton between the large bidders, and it
is understood that there will be enough
small bidders to defeat any such plan.
1t is understood that there will be
many persons who will buy a 40 or 80
tract with the intention of putting in
portable saw mills and saving for
the immediate local demand on the
reservation.
The first sale is largely experimental,
and if it does not go off satisfactorily.
future sales will be conducted on diff
ferent basis. There are 3,00l descrip-
tions, 4O's or lots, containing from
10000 to 200, 900 feet of pine, and aver
aging about $4,000, so that the total OF
pine is not far from $50, 600, 600 feet.
