DEAFNESS Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
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 infiamed con-
ditiOn of the mucous lining Of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when q It's entire
ly closed deafness is the resuIG, and I'M
less the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused

a supERLArivE EFFRoNTERY.

The I'll Paso Herald takes a surpri'
ingly narrow view on the subject OF
government irrigation project for La
Vegas. In the Issue Of Saturday, tn
says:
Ill Paso hopes Las Vegas will
get her irrigation project through.
At the same time, the Rio Grando
valley In New Mexico and Texas
south Of the proposed Engle dam
cannot aff0rd to see another
project run In ahead Of the Engle
project, because OF sooner com.
pleting the preliminary work. The
Las Vegas people have been most
active. and deserve great COM
mendation for their energy. As
soon as the Las Cruces and Ell
Paso valleys get their reclamation
works started they will lend their
Influence toward securing relief
for the Las Vegas tract. But just
now It would be disastrous II our
people who will derive benefit un-
der the Engle project should
daily along until another New
Mexico project Is allowed to take
precedence In sharing the reclama.
ton fund.
II cannot be made too emphatic
that the government Is READY to go
forward with the Engle project
as soon as N own valley folks
do their part in fulfilling the pre-
llminary demands. III the work
Of construction liz deferred another
year we have ourselves TO blame.
The government at Washington Is
entirely favorable, and there Is
nothing In the way of an imme-
diate start except the fact that the
land owners In the New Mexico
valley have done almost nothing
toward carrying out their promises
and fulfilling the conditions i'm.
posed by the government.
The beginning of work on the
Engle $1,000, 600 irrigJion project
awaits the action of the land own
ers In New Mexico. along lines
with which they have been per.

fectly familiar since last Deem
her, The conditions imposed are
simple and easy OF fulfillment,
There Is no reason why the re-.
quired pledges cannot be secured
within go days,
The Herald couples with It's CON-
incubation of Las Vegans an evident
intention TO make war on the Las
Vegas project ana have II held back,
II possible, until after the Rio Grande
project shall have been put through.
This Is "a dogin.the-manger policy,
The date OF the beginning OF the Las
Vegas project can, In no way, affect
the Elephant Butte dam enterprise.
Our project calls for the expenditure
OF a half million dollars; the southern
country project win require seven or
eight million dollars. While the utili-
zation OF the smaller sum can exert
only the most inconsequential effect
upon any other project, the appropria.
ton OF the larger sun might mean a
long delay for u small project. FL
Paso might be able by doing enough
knocking TO delay our our project,
but by sc doing she could advance
her own enterprise In no degree.
And The Herald ~asserverates that
the Rho Grande people cannol afford
to have our project put In ahead of
theirs merely because we qualify for
II first. The paper declares with all
the emphasis that the editor can com.
mand that the Elephant Butte dam
will be pushed by the government just
as o o as the land owners down there
perform the required conditions. II
says that, thus far, the people have
done almost nothing. That Is, the
government will do the work as soon
as the people are ready, but we are
to walt till after FL Paso gets ready.
But our people have been vigantly
at work on the reservoir project for
two years. The surveys have been
made, the citizens have gathered com
p~rehensiye statistics showing the
amount Of product that can be mar
keted AT home, the value of the crops
that can be raised, the values OF re
claimed lands per acre: they have
cleared np all matters of title, they
have even had every acre OF land
subscribed for so chat the government
Is certain OF the return Of It's money
Yet In tle light Of all this and OF
the fact that the lower country people
have done nothing the editor of The
Herald has the superlatiye ~effrontery
10 assert that enterprise Should
be held up until the people In the +
Paso region complete the thousand dc
tails necessary to bring their projec
10 the state Of forwardness In which
ours Is at present.
El Paso has, In times past, exhibit
ed a vast deal of nerve towards New
Mexico, but the present exhibition hai
never been equalled. We don't car
for any assistance that El Paso ma,
give us after the Elephant Butte dan
is completed, but we do expect FL Pas,
people and FL Paso papers to refrain
from knocking on the completion O
our project, now that every condition
has been compiled with and every pre-
liminary has been performed.
