Deafne.. Caunot be Cured

by local applications as they canot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only ione way to cure
deafness, and that is by consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infiamed condition of
the mucous lining Of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the
result unless the infmation 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 Calarrsh,
which is nothing but an infiamed
condition of the ~ucous surfaces.

Allen C. Bragg, the veteran news
paperman in the Ely Record,
correctly portrays part and present
conditions in this state:
Nevada territory was taken into
the union of states on October 3ls
1864, Jas a military necessity"
The general government at Wash
ington needed the votes of two
more loyal United States senator's
to enable the carrying out of
President Lincon's plan to end the
war of the rebellion and to re-
adjust the lines on which the nation
was founded. The general govern
ment, too, needed the wealth the
grand old Comstock lode was
producing to assist in furnishing
the needful for resuming specie
payment and furnish money to
support the women and children
made husbandless and fatherless
by shot and shell and for the care
of the men who had been manned
or their health destroyed by the
exposures of war.
Nevada at the time Of being
taken into Uncle Sans family, had
but handful of sturdy men to
keep up a state government. and
how wellthey performed their part

young ship of state to drift on the
tide without giving the discarded
lover that had done so much for
them another thought.
In 1873 the national congress
dealt the. commonwealth a cruel
blow by demonetizing silver thus.
to large extent at least, shutting
out one of Nevada's chief products
from the markets of the world
resulting in the closing of many
mines and causing the best mining
centers in the state to go into
decline that soon ended in almost
death. Then came few years OF
great prosperity in the western
part of the state, for Comstock

Following the bonanza period
came great depression and il was

until there we're but about 10000
people within the states 10000

of the world.
Nevada always had the reputation
of juicy range beef the best
mutton, the cleanest wool and the
most silver of the states in the |
union. She also established the
reputation Of producing the
mealiest and most uniform
potatoes; her grain was as good as ,
any grown anywhere, but politically
she was and is in fact despised as
is no other commonwealth. a.!
But, oh, the years between 1880
and 1900 were lean ones and the
most rigid economy had to bel
practiced in every department of
the state government, to keep the
ship afloat. Virginia City--.in its
day the most wonderful city on
earth-because almost a deserted
hamlet; with the silver-producing
camps almost depopulatcd, the out
look was anything but bright. The
years of plenty were significant, and
brought into eXistancc all the
foibles of human nature. 1t was a
season Of graft and the steam was
up to the elbow. off" point, and the
throttle was wide open, making it
harder for the people to practice
the economy necessary to live.
During those years of plenty the
saloons and wine rooms were
wonderful for tenderfoot to
witness. Liquor and champagne
flowed like water from a mountain
st rcam; the roads leading south
from Virginia City were lined
with ore teams hauling the raw
product to the mills lining the
Carson river, and the .buggics and
wagons of the mining superin-
tendents went back loaded with
refined bullion to make more
money to buy moro wine. But the
end came and with its lean years.
1t took Intelligent thought on
the part Of the people and with it
hard work to keep soul and body
together. Every department of
the state government was pruncd to
the very limit. Salaries were
reduced and Offices consolidated IN
every county in the state. 1t was
only the semi.agricultural counties.
like Churchill, Douglas, Washoe
Humboldt and Elk that managed
to keep their front gate" in any

mining counties were crippled
almost beyond redemption. Eureka,
Lander, Esmeralda, Lincoln and
White Pine perhaps were the
greatest sufferers, but the states

With the discovery of Tonopah
and shortly aftcrward the Goldfeld
district, the state began to sit up
and take notice." Every one of
her fourteen children commenced
to improve and breathe little
easier and since 1900 season of
prosperity hns been in evidence.
But with the return of better times
History is repeating itself" For
il Is another season of extravaganza
and graft. Several OF the
counties are again nearly down
and out Others are borrowing
money TO keep up steam and the
end Is not yet.
