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
remedies Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have a
bubbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
Elimination 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 in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of Deafness (caus-
ed catarrh) that cannot be cured

Territorial institutions, but these ap-
preparations show a large percentage
of increase all along m line, and a
considerable proportion OF them are
always used for printing.
There are a good many extras In
the wa of printing thrown in by
means of that useful legislative Gre
alton known as a Joint Resolution"
We confess a certain suspicion of all
Legislation enacted through this in
s~trumentality and our mind goes back
to those famous Joint Resolutions of
the 1905 Legislature, when Billy Mar
tin and Granville Pendleton dispens-
ed h peoples money for printing,
with no accountability of any kline
Ii Is perhaps this recollection which
makes us somewhat suspicious of
Joint Resolution No. 10 of the last
Legislature, which provides:
That upon presentation of bills
properly credited. ..... for printing
ordered by the Legislative Assembly,
1.-THE Auditor shall draw his war
rant against the Territorial Treasur
er in payment of such bills ...... Pro
vided. That the charges for printing
in English do not exceed the rate paid
by the United States for the same
grade of work, and for printing in
Spanish shall not exceed rs cents q
thousand ems, 60 cents per token OF
ESQ Impressions. and 8 cents pei
pound for paper"
This resolution also seems open tC
liberal" construction, although i
does not specifically state that it
shall be literally construed, as is the
| case with the $500. 900 bond issue
which we have mentioned before. i
would tbe interesting to know how
much printing the Legislature order
ed under this resolution.

Mr.. Max Frost had, in one way or
another, controlled the office of Public

taxpayers was Immediately apparent.
Within a month after the adjournment
of the 1907 Legislature the New

certain job at about $3.50 for which

PUBLIC PRINTING.

The printing of official or semi Off
cial publications and reports for Ter

boards is a matter which has always
been shrouded in more Or less nys-
terry and has generally been open to
accusations of overcharge and graft.

general system then in vogue was
made. which resulted, after a bitter
fight in the Legislature of that year,

The ways in which a public print
er, who was also a newspaper editor,
could control business were mani
old. 1t was very asy for instance,
for him to induce the Territorial ofic-
ials TO order printing which they had
no funds TO pay for on the promise
that the Printing Company would
wait until the Legislature mel for pay
nent. when the Printer would use his
influence with the Legislature to Sc
cure payment by deficiency appro-
priations. In 1907 most of these de
ficiencies were cut out. with the ex-
ception of some $3.50 to the Bureau
of immigration (of which Mr.. Frost
