IT will be happy consumma
tion when all litigation and trouble
over water questions shall be
finally settled. The only unsettled
question in this valley concerning
water is the right claimed by the
Consolidated Canal Company of
using the water of the Tempe
canal for power purposes, and for
the purpose of running the said
water to Its electrical plant thro'
its crosscut canal. The Supreme
Court has made a decision in his
favor upon that point, yet the
Tempe Canal people still object to
that proposition. The Consoli-
dated people, nor the people of
Mesa do not want the Tempe canal
TO forfeit any of its vested rights,
claiming that the running Of the
water of the crosscut would not
interfere with any of the vested
rights, There can be no question
but that this would be better for
all parties. The operation o; tn.
electric plant would eventually be
of vast benefit to all of the south
side, and all expense of repairing
dams and canals fro III the effects of
washouts would be saved to tie
Tempe canal. As the question has
been passed upon by the highest
court of the territory there is but
little doubt as to the final outcome,
and the sooner the whale thing is
settled the better will it be for Ill
concerned as well as for the valley.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

Deafness Cannot be Cured
BY ocal applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
fared condition of the mucous lining OF the
Eust,chian Tube. When this tube gets inf AIMED
you have rumbliLg sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result. and unless the inflammation can be
taken out aid this tube restore to it's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever,
nine cases out ef ten are caused by catarlh
which is nothing but an iufiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.

Who They Are.

StWho is it that is busy these days
slandering farmers, wage earners and
everybody else who believes in silver
by applying to them the hateful
epithet of anarchist2 1t Is the mil
ionaire bond holder whose occupa-
ton consists in spending for idle
pleasure his enormous income. 1t
is the high salaried Official who want
to buy farm products at price thu,
means loss to theproducer. 1t is the
corporation lawyer who is hired to do
his masters will. 1t is the wealthy
railroad president who has bonded
his road for vast sums to be paid in
gold and who wants the American
people to bear the burden of his cor
rupt bargains. 1t isgthe great news
papers whose rich owners run them
for personal greed and not for the
public good. 1t is the little news
papers who simply do as they are
told by Hanna and don't know any
better.
The above constitute the confeder-
ated gold forces. They have no
argument, so they indulge in abuse.
But they are beginning to realize
that popular indignation, so Justly
aroused, will sweep them into dis
astrous defeat. .

REPUBLICANS TURN TO SILL
YER.
A Decided Change of Sentiment
Among Leaders i'm Wash
ingtOn State.

SEATTLE, Wash, July 31.-There
is a decided exodus from the Mckinley
ranks in this state, and the Bryan
managers now claim that the state
will give the Chicago ticket25 900 ma
jority. The silver issue is the only one
recognized as much of factor in the
campaign, and there is strong and
growing sentiment in favor of free sill
yer. The leading advocates of the
gold standard anticipate a::decided re.
action before November.
John Il. Dana, nephew of Charles
A. Dana, is an earnest supporter of
Bryan and Sewall. Two sons of for
mer United States Senator Frank
Hiscock, of New York, have declared
for free silver, and are going to vote
the democratic ticket.
W. H. Cowles is another of the
most ardent free silver republicans in
the state, and Attorney General Jones
now serving his second term, has
also declared for Bryan. He says
there are precincts in Shokane coun-
ty heretofore strongly republican, in
which Mckinley will not get q
single vote. In Deep Creek, which
gave Harrison majority larger than
Cleveland's vote, every republican
buthone has joined the Bryan clubs.

The Doctors Extend Their Time.

Services first three months free. A
staff of eminent physicians and sur
geons from the British Medical Insti-
tute of Detroit have opened a per-
mauent office in Toledo, at No. 423
Summit Street. All invalids who
call upon them before Sept. 1st will
receive services for three months
free of charge. This will not only
include consultation, examination
and advice, but also all surgical
operations. Under no consideration
will remuneration in any form be ac-
cepted for any services rendered;
therefore the most humble in circum-
stances can avail themselves of the
most expert medical skill and with
out cost.
The object in pursuing this course
is to become rapidly and personally
acquainted with the sick and afflict-
ed. The doctors treat all forms of
chronic disease. but will not accept
incurable cases. If, upon examina-
tion, you are found incurable, you
will be kindly and frankly told so,
also advised against spending money
for useless treatment.
Male and female weakness, catarrh
and catarrhal deafness, also rupture
and all diseases of the rectum are
positively cured by their new treat
ment.
