Deafness Cannot BE Cured

10y 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
lnfiamed condition Of the mucous lin

THIS tube is inhamed you have a rumb-
ing sound or imperfect hearing, and
when 1t Is entirely closed. Deafness
is the result. and unless the inilam-

tube restored to it's normal condi-

George Smalley, clerk of the district court, was busy man when he ship ped to Phoenix the records on appeal of the case of o. J. Cotey ct al vs the Shannon Arizona Railroad com pany says the Globe Silver Belt.
 The case which was originally com menced for $175,OO0 was tried in the district court before a jury which awarded the plaintiffs judgment,to the amount of $4S,000. The case, howev- CT, was appealed by the Boston Safe Deposit company, and yesterday MT. Smalley shipped to Phoenix box and bundle containing the records in the case.
 MT. Smalley said that during the en- tire seven years he had been in the office this was the first time that it had ever been necessary to ship the records of a case. by express instead of mail. In fact, MT. Smalley said, the records in this case are the larg- est that have ever been entered in the books of the district court of Gila county. MT.

ARIZONA FIRST IN BUILDING OF
 SHELTERS
New Year Marked by Increase in Number of Plants, Following Extensive Developments
 in Mines of State

The building of new copper smelt- CTS and the enlargement of old plants have never appeared more prominent ly in the records of the mining in- dustry. Arizona is especially favored in this respect, new and enlarged smelters being natural sequence to
 the extensive developments in the mines of that state during the last two years. For the first time, the Am erican Mining ard Smelling company will be the owner of plant in this part of ihe Southwest, the Ell Paso smelter beng insufficient to supply the demands of the industrial devel opment in Gila and Pinal counties. The shelter at Hayden will be in op- eration within two or three months, primarily to meet. the needs of the Ray Consolidated, but probably also as a custom plant for the uses of oth- CT similarly extensive mines in the same neighborhood.
 As showing further the develop Copper Queen and the Calumet & Ari- zona at Douglas are actively enlarg- ing their facilities which amount prac- tically to the erection of new plants. In the same county the Shattuck-Ari- zona has a smelter in contemplation In -ihe 'Cilfton-Morenci: district, The A.';zona Copper compe y na. .'tarted new ,ant, while ,he United Verde Copper company, in the Jerome dis trict, is expecting soon to replace it's o:G sI,elter with a Eew plant some miles distant from the mines. Such Improvements as these are placing Ar izona in the forefront of the copper smelling industry, older and out of date methods being pushed into the discard. The new state is securing the benefit of the most modern exper- fence for this type of metallurgical works.
 In other sections the principal new copper plant is the Mason Valley in the Yerington district, western Neva- da, which has just been blown in. In the Butte district the East Butte plant has been materially. improved, while the Tacoma smelter of the American Smelling and Refining company, has increased it's facilities to accommodate the output of the Alaska mines.
 Significant among the developments of 1911 was the increasing use of bas- ic-lined converters, which are rapidly replacing the acid-lined plants for the treatment of copper matte; also the enlarged use of oil as a smelting fuel, particularly in the reverberatory plants. Wherever oil can be obtain ed at a low enough price it is taking the place of coal.

COLONEL ROOSEVELT
 AND HIS CANDIDACY

The astonishing thing is that any sane man should ever have doubted that the Colonel was a candidate
 He has always been a candidate.
 This picturesque political trouba- dour sang his candidacy on the day he left the Capitol in dramatic haste on the 4th of March, 1909, He was a candidate when he took the world into the full confidence of his preparations for the lion hunt. He was a candi- date in every press dispatch that chronicled the jungle adventures of Bwana Tumbo, in the African wild.
 He was a candidate when he en- erged from the wilderness until he stood in complacent comparison with Egypt. From Cairo, to Copenhagen he was a candidate. every step of the way. He was a candidate in every speech he made in Europe. He was a candidate when he landed at the Gu harder dock in the Hudson River. He tion he has made upon the faithful, Taft-a candidate in his open cr1tl- cism, or subtle innuendo, and a candi date in his suggestive silence. He was candidate when he first began to depreciate Taft. He was a candi- date in every movement he has en- gineered to undermine the friend whom he made President.
 He is a candidate when he says he is not a candidate.
 He is a candidate, waiting and longing to be drafted" and if he is not drafted, right soon the pictur- esque and strenuous Colonel will go out and draft" himself. ; We. are going to have a gay time at the Republican convention, and the modest and shrinking Colonel will undoubtedly. add to the gayety of na- tions.-Examiner.

THE THIRD TERM
Arizona Republican,

A good many newspapers, both Democratic and Republican, are con siderably exercised over MT. Roose- velt's presumptive candidacy for the office of president of the United States But all this. bother is really unneces- sary.
 F' Suppose MT. Roosevelt is seeking the nomination, what of it He is past thirty-five years of age, is native born citizen and there is no legal i'm pediment to his alleged ambition. Some say the breaking of the two term precedent is distasteful to a large section of the citizenship; but how can we know that? George Washington was offered a third term and so was Thomas Jefferson. There is very insiStent demand in these de- generate days that we return to the government of the fathers and a re- turn to the government of the fathers, if we are to return all the way, neces- sitates the offering of third term to somebody, and MT. Roosevelt happens to be the only avilble individual in eSse.
 , And then we don't care as much for precedent as we did once. Indeed; it seems that precdnts, these days, are made principally that they may be broken. We are shattering precedents right and left every day and so far nobody has been killed or maimed.

Who is the knocker? This question is easily answered. You will usually find him on some corner when the po- lice are not present; his amount of work during the day is represented by the algebraic figure X, and his, occu- patton, if you asked him, would puzzle him more than the solution of the mum Der of summers seen by the fictitious Ann Still, he knows how the entire city should be regulated although he does not know, and does not care how he will pay his poll tax. He couldn't go on the bond of man fined ten cents, yet he discusses the finances of the city as if he had the combina- tion of the city treasury at his fingers end Nothing that happens to his home town is any good; it never can be. He judges the town from his own standard and the conclusion is only obvious. Bees kill out the drones; the law prevents our following the exam pie of the industrious insects.

 The question has often been asked by the impatient whether it is neces- sary for us to await some official and 1 formal notice that the president has
 issued his proclamation. There is no
 such necessity, for in the language of
 the enabling act, Upon the issuance
 of said proclamation by the president
 of the United States, the proposed
 state of Arizona shall be deemed ad-
 mitted by congress into the Union" !" | Obviously we must have some notice ! that the proclamation has issued, but that may be. given by telegraph or any other reliable means of communi- cation. >' | As to the time that may elapse be- tween the presentation of the returns to the president and the issuance of the proclamation, there has been much conjecture. It is said that the presi- dent may withhold the proclamation to
 this or that date or that he may with
 hold it indefinitely. Under the enabling act, he cannot withhold it at all, for upon the presen- tation to him of the certified returns the president shall IMMEDIATELY issue his poclama tion announcing the result of said election so aScertained." " It is this proclamation that is immed- lately followed by fuil statehood.
 '1mmeditely," of course, does not
 mean in this case '1on the instant" It is understood that the proclamation
 shall follow at once upon the presenta-
 ton of the package containing the re-

 means that there shall be no unneces- sary delay or postponement of the
