There is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness is caused by an inf1amed con-

unless the Inflammation can be taken

A CRITICAL time
During the Battle at
Santiago.
SICK OR WE'LL, A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAY.
The Packers at the Battle of Santiago de
Cuba Were all Reroes-Their Heroic
Efforts in Getting Ammunition and
Rations to the Front Saved the Day.

P. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 8,
writing from Sandiago, De Cuba, on
July 23d, says: "We all had diarrhoea
in more or less violent form, and when
we landed we had no time to see a
doctor, for it was case of rush and rush
night and day to keep the troops sup
piled with ammunition and rations, but
thanks to Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were able to
keep at work and keep our health in
fact, [ sincerely believe that at one
critical time this medicine was the in
direct saviour of our army, for if the
packers had been unable to work there
would have been no way of getting sup
plies to the front. There were no roads
that a wagon train could use. My COM
rad and myself had the good fortune to
lay in a supply of this medicine for oui
pack-train before we left Tampa, and 1
know in four cases it absolutely saved
life.'
The above letter was written to the
manufacturers of this medicide, the
Chamberlain Medicine Co., Des Moines,
Iowa. For sale by Blakeley and Hough-
ton.

Notice to Delinquent Taxpayers.

The delinqent taxes of Wasco county,
as shown on the rolls now in the hands
of the sheriff are $50, 1000. an amount al
most equal to the Indebtedness of the
county. Every citizen will doubtless
admit that this state of affairs should
not exist, and that all taxes should be
collected. On account of hard times
in the past the county court Las shown
leniency to taxpayers, but that leniency
has reached the limit, and the court
cannot wait longer on delinquents to
make settlements. For this reason a
warrant has been attached to each de-
linquent roll commanding the sheriff to
collect all taxes by SEIZURE and sale of
property. With bountiful crop now
in sight, there can no longer be any rea-
sonable excuse for the non-payment OF
taxes. The sheriff is bound by oath to
comply with the terms of the warrants
attached to the tax rolls for the collec-
tion thereof, and has no option in the
matter. Delinquent taxpayers can save
the cost of seizure and sale of property
by settling their taxes at once.
ROBERT KELLY,
Sheriff and Tax Collector for Wasco
County.
Dated, August 4, 1898.
