another more there would be more
fidelity. Mr.. Finley is one of the pio-

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not 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
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound of imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness Is the result and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

"Untainted and Honorably Poor. :

In commencing to the republicans
of the state of Washington the can
didacy OF Hon Wesley L. Jones for
the United States senate. the republi-
cans Of Yakima county paid Mr.. Jones
just and worthy compliment when
they declared that "he is able. IN
tainted and hororably poor" No
higher or juster praise could have
been best lowed upon Mr. Jones by his
fellows.
Given his choice, Wesley /. Jones
would rather deserve that phrase. out
of the senate. and out OF public life
than not TO deserve it in any position
to which his countrymen might cali
him
Il is precisely that devotion @ high

mates OF his home county, declare

But the republicans in every part

OUT OF POLITICS.
New Primary Has Tendency to
Cleaner OFFICES.

As the primary campaign APP
proaches ii becomes more and more
apparent that one of the beneficial
results of the new primary law will
be its tendency to take the selection
OF county officers out of politics.
Now that the necessity for framing
up conventions and trading away
nominations for the control of pre-
cinct delegations has passed away
there is a vastly greater opportunity
for the exercise by the electors of
sound personal or business judgment
in the selection of officers who are
to administer county affairs.
With convention jobbing abolish
ed, it is going to be much easier for
the public official who has made good
in office to be renominated and re-
elected as a reward for that service.
a condition which will naturally tend
to the material elevation in charac-
ter of the public service. This con-
dition is noticeable in Yakima coun-
ty with relation to the nomination OF

A large number of the wagons

CHANGE SYSTEM.
New School Books May Be Ordered
Board Of Commissioners Is
Organized.

The board Of school commissioners
met In the Office of the school board
and organized with Mr.. Reed chair
man and Mr.. Watt secretary. The
committee consists Of d. c. Reed, w.
NJ. Watt, d. NJ. Rand, Miss Shannon
and Miss Larson. At the meeting It
was decided to ask for proposals
from the book companies for ex-
change and retail prices. The mat
ter of changing the books came up
before the board. but nothing was
done in the matter except to ask for
prices. 1t Is very evident that the
reader and arithmetic will be
changed, but the board has no idea
as to the new books that will be
bought. The system of writing will
undoubtedly be changed from the
vertical system to the Spencerian.
The county commissioners will meet
again May 16, when the matter of
the books will come up for more dis.
cussion.
