Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There Is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional re- medies. Deafness is caused by an n- famed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumblin4 sound or imperfect hearing, 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 condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surfaces
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circn- lars free

Moore, counsel for the St. Louis. Iron Mountain and Southern Railway. Com pahN, stated that the railroads and their attorneys had reached the con c!usion that if the railroad commits sion intended to make an emphatic stand opposing a compromise on the tarlftS filed recently by the five trunk lines then here could be no profit to either side in q further eXtension of the conference plan.
 He stated that il appeared to be ttle sentiment from some high in iht eeunsels of the State that the commits sten should Dol Nield a single point in any sott of compromise; that the mat Ter Was now in the courts, and that il should he fought through without making any attempt to reach an agree mem by Possible adiH tnents of the rates proposed by the traffic officials He referred to the position of Gov ernog-elec. Donashey in this eonnec- ton, citing his statements opposing a compromise
 Now, said CoIone! Moore. what We would like 10 know is whether ol. not the commission is 10 take this view advanced by Mh. Donaghev and others. thus predctermining the result of the conference to be fruitIcss of q compromise. If such is the case, then frankly saE that l shall advise my clients that further conferences are useless. do not see that any good can come of deliberations where it is a togegone conclusion that the com- mission will not grant some sort of compromise.

HEALY SAYS KEEFE
 IS PROMISED JOB
Siationar, Bremen Officer Is Author ity for Statement That Roosevelt Tried to Influence Labor Leader.

New York. Oct. b. Tn" Demo, l cratic National Committee issued I statement tonight quoting Timotbv Healy, president of the International Brotherhood of Stationary Bremen. as authority for the allegation that Dan lel J, keefe had been promised hy tb. president, appointment as commits sIonef general of immigration in re 1 turn for the Detroit labor leaders support of Mr Taft. The National committee had promised 10 make known its informant if the charge was denied as it has been both by Kerfc and at the White House.
 The National Committee quoles Mr ltealy ill part, as follows
 "l was ill Washington Wednesday ol last week on matter dealing with our organization, which brought nlc Ill contact with an official of high standing in the government service. He said to me, Dan keefe has been erected Tor commissioner general of immigration.
 Is that so?' ] said
 :" Yes, the job is his he replied
 T asked him how he knew and he told me that his informant was mem Der of the Presidents cabinet and knew what he was talking about.
 This information was not given to me in a confidential manner, but I will not give my informant's name, for it is plain to see what would happen to him if his name came out
 There is not any doubt in my mind but that the statement that the presi- dent offered Keefe the position and that keefe agreed to accept it. is true Perhaps the offer was not made al the conference on October 3 last, but l believe it has been made.

Little Rock Oct Within 20 minutes after the conference" be tween the traffic officials and their al torneys and the railroad commission and counsel began this morning al the office of the State Railroad Commits sion, there were more developments of a definite" nature and more con clusions as to the method of proce- dure in the rate controversy than had been arrived at before during all the time since the rates were enjoined some weeks ago by the Federal courts
 To sum up what happened in the said 20 minutes: First, the railroads announced that they will not put into effect tomorrow the new freight rates proposed by them, but will revise them further and make them effective about November 1: second, the traffic men and the railroad commission reached the conclusion, frankly, that an agree ment on provisional rates cannot be secured through further conferences and, third all attempts to reach such agreement between the commission

hughes and the Trusts.

In the financial colemns of the New
York Journal of Commerce on Janu-
airy % it was said: tDowntosrn bank
ers are thinking of organizing to sup
port Governor Hughes for the Presi-
dency. He is ardently supported by
Standard Oil, bat he may mot care 10
have this fact widely advertised"
AS the journal of commerce is the
m 1st reliable authority on finance and
business, no doubt the information
that Governor Hughes is "ardently
supported" by the STANDARD Oil Trust
influence is trae. Where all the cash
came from that elected him Governor
has been Il disputed question. Some
said the Wall Street bankers furnish
ed "the Doodle" but as the Rockefeller
interests are so ardentIy supporting
Gov. hughes for the Presidency pro-
badly the same interests furnished the
bulk of his campaign fund when run
ming for governor end will no doubt
try 10 swamp the Democracy with its
millions if Governor Hughes is the
Republican candidate for President.
These Republican reformers have
queer connections and will bear watch
ing.
There will be more contesting dele
cations in the Republican national
convention than ever before. Florida
will send two contes.ing delegations.
Hughes, Fairbanks Knox and Foraker
have COM ined against Taft.

From Leslie's Weekly

The Prohibitionists are to meet n
national convention in Columbus,
Ohio. on July Is. Thus all Of the par
ties of any consequences have selected
the time and place at which they will
pat up their Presidential tickets for
1908, except the Socialists, and they
are likely q be heard from in few
weeks. Tie Poigu.t-ss will meet at st.
LOUIS on l,nl 2; ne Republican, at
Chicago csi June IL; the Democrats at
Denver On July I, and the Prohiei-
tionists At Ohio's capital eight days
later.
For obvious reasons the Prohibition
lists will III rsct lacch more attention
In 1908 IMAM taey ever before COM
manded. 10 .he turee commemorative
Maine. Kansas I'D North Dakota
which had Statewide prohibition pre-
yious to 1897, they added an equal
number-Georgia Oklahoma and
Alsba in that year. Nearly half OF
the other forty states have shut wis
XIV out of much of their territory by
local option, and the ProhlbitionisIs
a.e making a campaign TO capture oil
those ST ties and expect to win many
of taern-BIississippi, Missouri, Louis
lana, Vermont, New Hampshire, Con-
neeucut, Delaware and othsrs-ln
1908 or 1909. The Prob ibition leaders
talk confidently of making the entire
country "dry" within the next hVe or
six wears. And their recent triumphs
gives some plausibility to their Tore
casts.
The Prohibition national convention
which meets in Columbus In the mid
die of July, will need to be watched
by the Republican and Democratic
politicians. AS political party tue
Prohibitionists have had longer ca
reer than any other of the three OF Tn
minor parties which the United states
has seen In 1872 they put their hrst
Presidential ticket in the neid, ana
they have nad one in every Preslueh-
tial cam aign since then. The Zo,ooo
votes which their candidate, ST. john,
poIled in New York in 1854, three
fourths of which were drawn from the
Republicans, defeated Blaine and gave
Cleveland the 1,047 plurality IN That
decisive state which made HIM FRESH
dent. st. Johns aggregate vote In the
country at large WAS l5l,0O0. BldWeu
264 900 votes in 1892 was the largest
poll ever made by the Prohibltionlsts.
Swallow, In 1904, received zoo ,ooo. Inc
marvellous expansion which they nave
made since 1904, however, as shown oy
the territory which they have put on
the "dry" list, makes IL exceedingly
probable that the ticket to be noml-
mated at Columbus will poll at least
.OoO, 900 votes. AS already mentioned,
At. John defeated Blaine for President
"a wears ago and broke the spell OF the
Republicans' imagined invine'oillty.
1t is easily possible that the Prohiol
tienists may hold the balance in lSoo
in several states and tara theiseale one
way or the other in the Electrical Col
