DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED.

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There Is only way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deaf ness is caused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the TCustachian Tube. When this tube is infamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is entirely closed Deafness is the result. and unless the in hammatiOn can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh which is nothing but an infiamed condi- ton of the mucous surfaces

Beyond the Gates of Paradise" eyond the gates of Paradise

Beyond the Gates of Paradise" Beyond the gates of Paradise welcome waits for her. Sweet land of rest where weary hearts From toll and care are free.
 All that remains of sweet Dorothy Hollingsworth was laid at rest on Sun day afternoon, Nov. 4, in the beautiful new cemetery of Phoenix, Arizona.
 Her friends here will mourn for her. whom they loved so dearly, as will also her many friends in Arizona. but God saw best to call her home, in that beautiful home Beyond the the Gates of Paradise"
 Dorothy HOllingsworth had been sick for several years, and through all her suffering never complained, but put her whole trust in God who was her guide and who watched over her through her long illness.
 Dorothy was a true Christian. and spent the greater part of her time in reading her bible. She had a host of loving friends who came each day to comfort her old mother and to cheer the sick girl.
 We laid her to rest, and as we did so, could not help thinking how sweet must be the thoughts of her deer moth CT, to know that Dorothy was indeed al rest in that beautiful land where there is no suffering but where all is beautiful and peaceful.
 The services were held at the home on First avenue. and were largely att tended by the many friends who sent many beautiful floral offerings and ex- pressed their sincere sympathy to the mother.
 Let us not mourn for Dorothy. but feel that she is at rest, and let us from today follow in her footsteps. living our lives as she did hers that we may meet her Beyond the Gates of Para disc. A FRIEND.

"Navajo county registration not yet
 reported.
 Adding 800 for Navajo to the regis
 tration of 31.S62 in the rest of the
 counties this year, gives a total regis
 tered vote of 32662. or a gain in reg istration of only S67.
 It will be observed, though that of
 the large registration two years ago,
 only 21,427 votes were cast. This in- dicated either a great deal of apathy at the polls, or a badly padded registra-
 ton. Doubtless both had something to
 do with it. It is known that the reg
 ister in MaricOpa county was not a proper indication of the voting strength for the registration was only supple mental. New names were added but those who had died or moved away during the preceding two years re- mained on the list In some of the counties last year there was a feeling of apathy through the fact that it was straight case of republican against democrat and in certain democratic
 sections there was no local issue on
 which. the republican candidate could gather democratic support and it went as it stood" without great excitement. This year it is believed the registra- l ton has been much more accurate, in deed in certain counties, Maricopa. for instance, if there has been any inac- curacy 1t has been a failure to regis ter some republican votes through the fact that the republican registrars were kept out of the field until a late hour. through the failure of the recorder to appoint them. Moreover the question of jointure is a local and special issue 1 in every county and most people are l interested. It is therefore believed the 1 vote will be much larger than last year at least not less than 25,OOO. This
 may seem a small vote compared with the number registered. but it must be remembered that in this county there l is a large floating vote. The word floating is not intended to imply that 1 it is floating" in respect of principle 1 or that it is purchasable or improper vote, but what is meant is that the employment of these men is not con- i tinuOus or stable For instance, along | the railroads, many men may be out | on their runs which are long and distant from their precinct others | are registered at a mine and before election they move to another county.
 where better jobs are offered. and fail to have their registration transferred. | The same applies to the logging camps and to others in contract work either for the government or private parties. ! But this year it is expected as full a 1 vote will be boiled as could ever be l secured on any question.
 ] For convenience of those who wish | to compare the present with the last 1 former election the figures are repro duced, showing the vote of eacn can didate for delegate to congress in each i county.
 It is proper to state also that this year there is no candidate for delegate by the prohibition party or by the | socialist-labor party. In lieu of these the reader has the statehood candidate to figure with. The straight socialist
 vote, which will be cast for Candidate Cannon, has probably increased some what

ed with a pledge to support in the leg islature the instructions of the repub- lican county convention.
 In an allusion to MT. Webb it was recently stated by The Republican that he had been graduated from liar ward. That is not quite correct. He left Harvard an undergraduate to go to work He afterwards travelled ex- tensively and resided at various Euro pean universities, where his education was completed. His residence at the University of Paris was the longest. Soon after returning to this country he came to Arizona.
 John G. Hardin. the candidate for sheriff, made the briefest speech, but there was no more earnest one and probably none more effective. Said he. If you people elect me. I'll make you a good sheriff"
 E. w. Lewis spoke at greater length than most of the other candidates. dis claiming on the part of himself or the committee any part or sanction of a certain circular reflecting upon the character of his opponent. He called to witness that at no time during the campaign had be brought before his audiences anything but himself and his OWH record.
 There were short speeches by the rest of the candidates and when the meeting was adjourned it was generally felt that the last meeting had nOt been without effect.
 The crowd at the democratic meet ing was sweIled partly by the an nOuncement made in the afternoon that Mr Bullard would reply to the circu- lar in which he had been attacked.
 The joint statehood campaign with cred in a frosty meeting.
 There is a growing opinion and iU had been growing for a week that d majority of the republican ticket would be elected. In fact the only offices which the democrats have been claiming with any show of confidence have been those of sheriff. county recorder. one of the supervisors and two mem bers of the legislative ticket. They have not been ready to say which two they will be.
 Estimates regarding the joint state hood vote vary. It is not generally believed though that it will be ss heavy as it was thought a week ago it would be. Reports from throughout the territory indicate a falling off of it. Estimates of the total vote for joint statehood range from eight To eleven per cent of the whole vote.

THE CAMP PAI6N CLOSED
 QUIETLY IN PHOENIX
There Were We'll Attended Republican and Democratic Meetings at the Two Theaters.

There was the last flash of red fire, the last explosion of a bomb. the last waving of torch and the last speech last night. There is nothing now but the shouting on one side and cursing on the other
 The county campaign was closed by both parties in the city last night. There were fairly good audiences at the Hardwick where the republicans said the last word and at the Doris. where the democrats made the final appeal.
 The republican speakers were heard attentively and the meeting was en- thusiastic. The first address was a business talk by Watson Pickreu the candidate for the legislative council. He was followed by Chaplain Scott, who spoke briefly but his address was spirited. He talked of good citi- zenship and the records of the repub- lican candidates. Mir. Scott also made strong appeal against joint state hood. He asked that it be buried so deep that it would never be heard again. He believed that the hearty re- jectiOn of the proposition would gain for the people of the territory respect throughout the country; that even the
 
 president would hold them in higher regard.
 Elliott Evans, also for the legislative assembly. though suffering from se- were cold, aggravated by speech mak- ing, occupied the floor for only short time in which he presented his claims in an earnest manner and he was heartily applauded. Hon. J. c. Reed oC the ticket, was unable to be present but Chairman Mintz of the committee. made an appeal in his behalf. He spoke of the esteem in which he was held by the people of the part of the coun- try where he resides and everywhere he is known. MT.
