tors of the bribery graft investigation
and prosecution, long since exhausted
the original fund oil $1,000 pledged
by SpreckeIs and have expended nearly
81 900, 900 in a municipal publication

vast sum OF money is by way of an in
veslment from which actual moneyed
returns are expected; that Spreckels and
his prosecuting associates desire and
purpose to overthrow the present mu-
nicipal administration that they them
selves may assume the reins of govern
ment and procure for themselves street
railway and water franchises which will
net them millions of dollars OF the pub

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 con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucous lining
ct the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
intlamed you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing. and when il is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, aud unless the
Inflammation 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
iniiamed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case OF Deafness (caused by catauh) that
cannot be cured by Hsll's Catarrh Cure.
