ness, and is by constitutional
remedies. deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustation Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed. deaf

inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;

WHEAT AND RECIPROCITY.

An exchange" that has made a
great ado about President Taft's reci-
procity policy, insists that the price
of wheat is playing around the dollar
mark-all due TO the fact that reci-
procity was placed in the discard
or words to that effect-and with
other facetious references, meant to
amuse, besides quoting from "a
prominent farmer" The exchange"
claims that we could not read Alright
the figures. We are not disposed to
reply in rude, harsh and un.
gentlemanly words that frequently
come out of the mouth of the colo
mel, but will simply state that the
aforesaid exchange" is mistaken.
More often a soft answer turneth
away wrath.
We did read the market quotations
in the exchange" We based our
statement that the price of wheat
was not lingering around the dol
lar mark on those figures. If those
quotations were incorrect-then we
were mislead. The same exchange"
dated Wednesday, August %, quotes
wheat as follows: No. l, 80 cents;
No. 2, IS cents; No. 8, IS cents, a
considerable distance from the CEN
fury mark that our esteemed con-
temporary prates about. We do not
quote the figures from the board of
trade in Minneapolis for the reason
that there is a difference of about
six cents between the price paid for
wheat there and on the local mar
kets in Southern Minnesota.
So, it will be observed. taking the
quotations from the estimable Eek
change" that has attempted to put
us in hole, that the price of wheat
is not paying a visit to the dollar
MARYLAND there is no reciprocity act
in force between the United States
and Canada that could have an eff
feet on the price. During Septem-
Der, 1911, the price of wheat on the
local markets ranged from ninety
six to ninety-eight cents-and at that
time the reciprocity agitation was
on in full force. 1t is true that upon
the refusal of Canada to enter into
reciprocal relations with his coun-
try the price of wheat did shoot up
like skyrocket-which was not
surprising-but that high price did
not remain for long period. "a.
During the present month the price
of wheat on the home markets
ranged at figures below the dollar
But once did it rise above that
figure-August 3-when it reached
$L01. That was for old wheat The
highest price paid for new wheat
was ninety-six cents, but of late the
more popular price has been that
which has been quoted in Eek,
change" A year ago the price ranged
from ninety-seven to more than that
iigure-and there was much agita,
tiCn about reciprocity. So We have
every reason to hold to our first and
original proposition, and the sarcas
tic remarks about the bulls" have
no foundation in fact

That Pioneer Press Editorial.
The Pioneer Press of August %,
1912, contained an editorial which
treated the above questions with scorn
by saying there is no secret about
salaries. Why then do the railroad
companies make such desperate OBJ
jections the moment you inquire into
salaries of official political attorneys
and lobbyists? The same editorial
says most of them, having their
headquarters in other states, the
Great Northern, the Northern Pacific,
the 500, Omaha, Minneapolis and
st. Louis railroads have general of.
fees in this state and surely have
jurisdiction within the state. The
truth cannot be fumbled as easy as
that. The people are entitled to
know these facts. A railroad official
is a public official.

get a statement of the railroad com.

able to obtain any such record, ii
being their duty to have same. Think
of an individual going to a railroad
company and asking the question as
TO what salaries are paid to their
high officials, political attorneys, lob.
byists, blind pockets. I would like
to see what he would look like, after
being elected from headquarters
B However, these are duties to be
performed by the railroad and ware

In the state of Iowa passengers
travel for two cents per mile; the
