Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local application, as they can
not reach the diseased portion OF the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that Is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness Is caused
by an inhamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eutachlan Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you have
a rumbllng sound or imperfect hear
ing. and when II is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result and unless
the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored TO It's norma
condition, hearing viii be DESTROYED
forever: nine case out Of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the mu'
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Deafness tcaused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

in the public schools Is not expected

way. The teacher who should ven =

be dismissed. The idea that n NOR

without intellectual exhaustion, he
is brought to see that one and one

In like manner the pupil must

him quickly to become familiar with
maps and to learn in few days

In many of the claims it was necessary to use candle light in order to see the underground situation satisfactorily. The railway is allowed, according to it's charter, main right of-way of sixty feet, and no mining is allowable within 120 feet of each side of the tracks.

There seems to be of late marked mania for the asking for and the grant ing of ''injunctions" in the courts of this part of the district of Alaska, and so great has this evil become that it is assuming an attitude gravely threaten ing every industry in Seward peninsu- la. So strenuous and so threatening has the evil become that the confidence of the people in the courts of the dis trict administering the laws is fast fail ing if not entirely destroyed. That such condition exists has its fault somewhere, and the persons, officers judicial or otherwise--respo ponsible for this state of affairs cannot be too severe ly censured nor too freely exposed. Nome has, since Che discovery of gold on Seward peninsula been cursed with dishonest or incompetent officers ap. pointed by the government to adminis- ter it's laws. We have been forced to | keep up a constant warfare against the Carpet baggers" inflicted upon us and from the grave proportions of this re- viving evil we will have to continue such warfare. 1t has been said "That injunction follows the pay" and from appearances or recent developments it seems only too true. Hardy miners who have stayed in this far northern country for years and suffered sepera- ton from those whose memory is ever fresh in their hearts--who have endur- ed the hardships incident to this north ern climate, and by energy and pluck, have by their labor, after many years, been rewarded by discovering upon the lands of the United States, "the pay" and have by industry and the expendi- ture of large sums of money and credit extracted from the ground dump of pay gravel and are ready to reap their reward by clean up--are confronted by federal officer with writ of "in- junction" commanding them to cease their labor and await the further "action of the court" He is in debt, his money gone, his labor unpaid; the merchants who have extended him credit, his laborers who have commit ted no other ofFense than to work hon. estly and hard underground all winter, the family at home, must patiently and uncomplaiuingly likewise await the "further order of the court" for that which is their own Seward peninsula has now become an attractive field for the legitimate investment of capital offering rich returns-hut as is now being pointed out by investors, "it is needless to buy mining ground in this part of Alaska, or enter any mining enterprise for the. reason that titles are insecure and as soon as ground is de- veIopedi it is tied up by injunction" We do not assume to say where the fault of this glaring evil lies, but that | it is au evil we dare here and now to point out, and it should meet with such storm of disapproval and con- demnation by the people of this dis trict, as will forever stamp it out.-- I
