Deafness Canzot be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There il only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inhamed you have a ruinblng sound
or imperfect hearing, and when Il IL
entirely closed, deafness is the result.
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing viii be de-
stroyed forever. Nine cases out Of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which ia moth
ing but an infamed condition Of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

catarrh) that cannot be cured by

Two years hence VIII bc Presiden-

doubtedly Use every effort 70 cary this
State for the candidate Of Shat party.
For that purpose il viii, in al Proba-
bility, put some one to the front for
Senator who can command national OF
trust money. / don't know who that
man viii be, but it IS more than likely
that it win be stewart, VINO viii again
endeayor to force himself upon the
Republican party Of this state.
''in that event Il viii be a labor Of
love on my part 70 fight tbat ed fraud
and traitor to every interest Of the

the man who viii be Satisfactory 70 my
party or not, I am determined that
Stewart shall no longer misrepresent a
State and its people where he has 10
common interest and does Los even
pay poll tax.
AS TO my candidacy can only say
that wish to see the Fusion party put
up some man that can get the solid
vote Of the nine hold-oyer state Seaa-
tors and he viii, in my judgment,
stand more than al even chance.
Should the Fusion party consider ne
the man to make the fight, may yield
to its judgment, but with me Il is any
body to beat Stewart, and have conf
dence enough in my party TO believe it
will select some one that can beat that
old humbug, or any other man the Re

the candidate for United states sena-
tor who shall receive a majority Of all
the votes cast at such election and so
representing the voice and choice Of
Q majority Of the electors Of the State
shall be the only candidate presented

right and propriety of the electors in
structing Representatives, is recog-
nized and promising, irrespective Of
party affiliations, to vote for the candi-

Reno Chamber of Commerce.

Every man in the State who would
see Nevada prosper, who would see
the State arise with mighty strides,
who would see capital and men OF
energy come into the State, should
lend a helping hand to the Reno Cham
Der of Commerce.
While the name is the "Renoo cham
Der, it is in no wise local institution.
It is State Northumberland and
carried on solely for the purpose Of
fostering and upbuilding every county
within the State lines. 1t is purely an
exhibition of the varied products Of
the state of Nevada.
The room is large one, prominently
located a few feet from the pas
senger depot of the Southern Pacific
and v. &. T. Railroads. The front is
of plate glass adorned by exhibition
receptacles Of large size.
Upon entering the room you turn to
the left. About the first thing that
meets your gaze ia the handsome ez-
hibit of medals and prize cups awarded
to Governor Sparks at various fairs all
over the Coast for the best thorough
bred cattle.
Passing along few feet you come to
the section devoted to the mineral re-
sources of the State. In this section
every county is allotted ample space
to display it's ores. Though the ham,
her of Commerce has been in existence
but few months, some Of the counties
already have meritorious displays
notably Nye and Washoe. However,
most of the counties have made poor
showings.
The Southern Pacific company will
transport all specimens of mineral OF
whatever character to Reno free OF
all charges. This should certainly be
an incentive to mining men to have
their properties represented in the col
lection at Reno. There is no limit TO
the size of specimens that may be sent. /
In fact, the larger the better.
Hundreds of mining men-men who /
are seeking to purchase all sorts OF
mining property-are constantly pas
sing through Reno enroute to Tonopah
and other mining fields, and every one
of these men visit the { hamber OF
Commerce and critically inspect the
various specimens. In this way your
property is almost certain to be
brought to the attention Of Investors
Bythis means alone several unknown
properties have already been sold or
bonded and several other sales are
about to be consummated.
Major Ingalls, has had many inquiries
regarding asbestos and mica, and he is {
especially DESTROYS of receiving such
specimens.
In the center of the room is a row Of
show cases containing the small and
most valuable specimens and rare
metals.
Space is also given to the exhibit Of
all kinds of cereals, fruits, grasses and :
vegetable products.
Iocacco, Olives pOPSOihf i4A1Si an i
black walnuts are among the products
of Nevada in the exhibit.

The Introduction Of carp as a food
fish into the streams and lakes Of the
country was one Of the most unlortu-
nate blunders ever made. The carp
Is almost worthless for food purposes
It is a mud hog, a destroyer Of the
spawn Of other valuable fish and keeps
the water where it is found so rolled
and unhealthful that other desirable
food fishes cannot live. Systematic
efforts are now being made to get rid
Of this pest. \ late market quotation
on carp was only a cent pound where
black bass was quoted at 10 cents.
