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 rum

and when it Is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;

ASK RESIGNATION OF
c. @. P. POLL OFFICER

The resignation of John Peterson
as Republican election clerk in the
second district of the sixth ward was
requested by the Young Mems Repub-
lican Club last night. A resolution
to that effect was passed at the meet
Ing and the secretary will forw I'd
copy of 1t to Mr.. Peterson today
The resolution sets forth that as Mr.
Peterson is a Progressive and not
Republican he could not conscien-
tiously and honorably serve.
AT a recent meeting of the club
this matter was discussed but under
the law there seemed to be no way
out Of the matter. 1t was brought
up again last night and after County
Chairman John Pfeiffer had explain
ed 1t and stated that similar case
in Newark was in the courts await
ing decision the club decided that
the proper course to pursue was to
ask Mr.. Peterson, who is a member
Of the Board of Health, If he wished
to be fair to the club to resign.
Someone suggested that If Mr.. Peter
son needed the $50 which is the
salary of the election clerk the club
might be able to dig it up"

There will be no compromise be-

sed a resolution which ought to re-
move all doubts from the minds Of
any who have wanted or expected

the Republicans and Progressives
was considerably widened last night
as the members Of the former club
made no effort to conceal their feel
ings toward the Bull Moosers."
The main topic Of the meeting was
the "Pugsley Statement" and the
club went on record as not having
proposed or favored any compromise
or deal" and by a standing vote
expressed its confidence in Mayor
Ferd Garretson.
An interesting statement was read
by Mr.. Garretson as a reply to Mr..
Pugsley's declaration published in

Even with bullet in his body,
Dobus fought with the police and a
physician who attempted to dress his
wound. An hour after the shooting
he went to the saloon of Steve Kiraly
at 436 Smith street and smashed
large mirror. He was punished to
the extent of paying a fine of $25 or
going to Jail for thirty days on that
charge and SIS or six months in Jail
on a charge of disorderly conduct
for annoying Mrs. Lybeck.
According to Mrs, Lybeck and sew
eral witnesses, Dobus claimed last
night that Joseph Herr, a Smith
street saloonkeeper, had put him up
to going to the Lybeck home. He
declared before q crowd of people
that Herr had told him he could get
anything he wanted in the patrol
mans home. This was stoutly de-
MED by Herr, who challenged the
production of proof that he had said
anything OF the kind. This morning

ed a reply from him. He set forth
that Eugene Cross and Robert l..
Whitehead of the Progressives had
come to him unsolicited and talked
about fusion and compromises. Mr..
Garretson said the two men gave
every evidence that they desired a
compromise and were looking for a
way to bring 1t about. The mayor
further stated that at no time did
he send for any one or appoint any
messengers to make a deal for
him. The statement was greeted
with much enthusiasm by the club
members and later in the meeting,
after a number of late callers had
arrived, Mr.. Garretson by request,
read 1t again.

FRANkFORD's NEEDS.

TO the Editor Of THE EVENING
JOURNAL.
Sir:--I agree most heartily that
this Is a time 10 be cautions and give
even more time than usual to the con-
sideration of bills that now are pend
ing before our honorable body OF leg
islators. / also say that there are
very few measures now pending
which really demand favorable action.
but ! want to call your attention to
two bills that need immediate action.
one pertaining to progressiveness.
and the other constitutional liberty.
There are two bills. known as r. B.
1886 and H. B. 337 entitled an act TO
amend an act to incorporate Frank
ford These bills have passed the
House Of Representatives, and are
now pending before the Senate com
mttee on Municipal Corporations for
consideration. These bills should be
properly considered and should be
reported out of committee either fav-
orably or on their merits, as the hon
orable committee deems best
The first bill. known as r. 3. 336
is TO give the Council Of the town OF
Frankford the authorization, and em-
power IL to borrow on the credit OF
said town. q sum OF money not eX-
ceeding $4,000 TO be applied, appro-
plated and expended for the purpose
of improving the streets of this town,
which is badly needed.
The second bill, known as II. b. 337,
is to give 10 each qualified voter Of
this town one vote only at the town
elections instead OF one vote for each
dollar tax. or fractional part thereof.
The greatest danger to come from our
present system Of voting, is the
enormous power It places I'm the
hands of a small minority of voters.
which might possibly mean keeping
this town from making the necessary
improvements, that the people are
demanding.
The American people do not believe
in the system of minority govern
ment. There is no danger in majority
government The people would never
vote solidly on any question. Tho
public is composed Of all Of us, not
some part of us, as some people would
lead you 10 believe. The public is
that great body of people, young and
old, powerful men and the helpless
men, women and children upon whom
all our relations in life depend. Men
cannot be happy and successful when.
they are seeking selfish advantage one
over another, by giving one man one
vote and another man ten votes or
more. They can be happy and sue
cessful only when they are trying TO
do something which Is for everybody's
good
Equality should be given us without
any hesitancy. II each man Is re-
cognzed as having the right of one
vote and one vote only at the ballot
box in this little town, there can be
no doubt there will be better condi-
tions. more successful people and
an era Of greater prosperity. This
town belongs TO the people who live
here and it is the moral duty to main
tain equal opportunity for all, and
special privilege for none. Let me re-
fer you to the last campaign. The Re-
publican platform of 1912 says that
no discrimination should be allowed
