Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they 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 inhamed con-
dltiOn OF the mucous lining OF the
'Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
intlamed you have a rumblng sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed Deafness is the result, and un-
less the inflammation can be takan cut
and tins tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will he destroyed for
ever; nine cases out OF ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition OF the muscous sur
face.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Deafness Caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot lie cured by Halls

New Mexico Democrats Come Out In Fa-
vOr OF Free Silver

LAS VEGAS June l5.-The democratic
territorial convention which was held
here today was one OF the most notable
gatherings of democrats which has as
sembled in the territory for many years.
Quite a number OF delegates arrived
Saturday night and were busily en-
gagged all day Sunday discussing ,the sit
uation and preparing for the conven-
tion today. Most OF the delegates from
the south arrived on the early morning
train this morning.
1t had been apparent for some weeks
that the convention would be for the
free and unlimited coinage OF silver and
there was really no serious opposition to
the adoption OF resolutions to that end.
The democratic party OF New Mexico
has placed itself squarely on record on
the financial question and in tbs respect
is in direct opposition to the republicans
who ignored the silver question entirely
in the Albuquerque convention. There
is no doubt but that the democrats OF
New Mexico are enthusiastic on the sill
yer question.
The democrats OF the territory have
also placed themselves on record as in
favor OF statehood, believing that New
Mexico has been territory long enough.
The record OF Delegate Catron was
held up TO the scorn OF the people OF the
territory and his course was severely
condemned.
The following delegates were elected
to represent New Mexico at the Chicago
convention on the 7th OF July next
Antonio Joseph, John \. Hewett, W. S
Hopewell, NJ. NJ. Salazar, DemetriC
Chaves and A. A. Jones.
j. II. Crist was tenn porary chairman
and II. b. FERGUSON was permanent
chairman.
The central committe selected SAINTS
Fe as the place for holding the terri
tOrial convention for the nomination o
a candidate for delegate in congress
The convention was harmonious
throughout.
