There is only one way to cure deaf

remedies. Deafness is caused by an

this tube gets iniiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed deaf.

Illumination a be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition
bearing will be destroyed forever;

TAXPAYERS PAY THE COST.

At a cost of more than a thous and dollars to the taxpayers O Santa Cruz county a special term of court was this week held in No gales. And for whatl For futile attempt of the Nogales push" tc break and drive out of office Dis trict Attorney Willis P. Harlow on account of his manly stand against the nefaIious schemes of the gang to rob and defraud the United States government in the custom house, and the people of Santa Cruz county in the court house.
 They have deliberately used the machinery of the law in a fruitless endeavor to crush out a faithful public servant who had the cour- age to stand up against their aud acious effronteTy, and they have signally failed.
 Colonel Harlow is to be congrat- ulated upon the complete and sweeping vindication given him by two juries of his fellow citizens. He was represented by eminent counsel, but his attorneys thought it inadvisable to make stiff fight. They cross-examined only two witnesses and those but little. They made no argument to the juries. They simply let the case go upon the evidence as presented, and the juries acquitted. There was splendid opportunity for cat egorical strategy and forensic dis play; but the defense took none of these advantages. Upon the other hand the prosecution took every advantage possible. The result was most sweeping victory for the defense. But who pays for all this! Why, the taxpayers of Santa Cruz county. One of these days there will be published in these col. umns an itemized bill O. costs in these matters and the taxpayers can see just what the malignant push" have mulcted them in an unholy effort to crush out candid and fearless criticism and honest opposition.
