Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portions of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
1ional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube il infamed
you have rumbling sound or 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 nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out Of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an infamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send foI

ASKED TO
BLOCK MOORE PLAN
Petition of Citizens for Injunction
Declares Home Rule Law Is
Unconstitutional.

Legal action TO restrain the common
council from submitting the so-caled
Moore plan. or municipal ownership
plan, for the settlement Of the street
railway controversy, 10 a vote OF the
tax payers, was taken in circuit court,
Friday morning by Attorneys Angel
and Spaldlng. who represented J. l..
Hudson, George II. Barbour. X. A.
Alger, Jr.. Charles A. Ducharme and
Henry b. Joy.
Application was made TO Judge
Murfin for an Injunction restraining
the council from submitting the ques-
ton TO vote. Judge Murfin made an
order requiring the defendants TO
show cause on Tuesday next, why such
IN injunction should not issue.
IN the petition for the injunction II
Is alleged that the city council has
not the power TO submit the question
OF municipal ownership under the old
charter, and they claim that the city
has not adopted a new charter under
act No. 279. The petitioners also
claim that the existing charter sets
limit TO the Indebtedness OF the city
OF two per cent upon the assessed
valuation OF the real and personal
property within 1t. and they say that
the present Indebtedness Is within a
small fraction OF one per cent OF the
limit.
The petitioners point out that un-
der act No. 279 the common council
is Obliged to order the submission OF
the proposed charter amendment to
a vote Of the electors at the next gen.
eral or special election, and that said
council has not discretion in the mat.
ter and proposes TO obey the law and
to submit the amendment at the
proper time.
The petitioners maintain that act
No. 279 of the public acts of 1909
under the terms OF which. alone. an
election, such as Is proposed. Is pro.
vided for. Is unconstitutional and
void: that the proposed proceedings
are in contravention OF the terms oi
said act. and that the amendment
proposed to be voted on, IL adopted by
the electors of the city. would contra.
vene both the constitution OF the
state of Michigan and the general
statutes OF said state, and would be
invalid. and that an election. II held
as proposed, could result In no valid
addition to the laws now governing
the said city OF Detroit and its in
habitants.
II is claimed that the expense to
the taxpayers of the city would be
many thousands OF dollars, and that
II said proposed amendment TO the
charter were adopted, the common
council would be compelled to increase
nf ptf ~ hU
eral millions OF dollars.
The matter is of great public i'm
portance. the petitioners say. and the
questions involved are such that all
taxpayers would be benefited by hav,
ing a judicial decision OF them in adj.
