JUMP IN WHEAT
Prosecution VIII Follow Discovery oi
Evidence of Illegal Combinations.

Washington, Jan. Is. ~ Prompt
prosecutions will follow the discov-
cry of any evidence of illegal combi-
nations back of the recent increases
in the cost of wheat and flour, At
torney General Gregory said. He
added that the instructions sent 10
all the United States district attor-
neys at the direction of President
Wilson, following the increase in
food prices after the outbreak of the
European war, still stood and that
the latest developments in the situa-
ton would be closely followed.
Mr.. Gregory said that the federal
investigation in the -four and wheat
situation being carried on in Chicago
was in accordance with instructions
from the department of justice. Up
to the present. however, he has re-
ceived no information that Illegal
practices have been resorted to.
The suggestion of Mrs. Julian
Heath. president of the National
Housewives league. TO President
Wilson that an embargo on the eX-
portation of wheat from the United
States be imposed if prices continue
to go up was laid before the presi-
dent. but no action was taken.

lation governing county bridge mat
tiers in prospect. From many coun-
ties of the state came complaints of
the workings of the law and the cost
ly red tape necessary to get a small
bridge built under county uper-
vision. No actual charges of graft
have been made, but it is freely
talked that the practice in the past Of
letting the work out to the big bridge
companies has given every opportu-
nifty for Irregularities and favors
shown to county officers by these
companies, are limited at such as en-
teTtainment. and presents.
So cumbersome has the county
bridge system been found that in at
least n county. that OF Grant. the
law is practically ignored and town
ship boards go ahead and build the
smaller bridges on their own respon-
sibility. The law requires that every
bridge costing 500 or more must be
contracted for and built under coun-
ty supervision. In the case of a
bridge costing 500 the county up
e%rvisors must first hold a meeting to
consider the application. They then
make a trip TO view the bridge site.
Then another meeting Is held at
which ii is decided to build. When
the bridge is completed there is an
other trip OF inspection with mileage
and at least one more meeting 10 ap-
prove and order payment. Ii is as
serted that the cost of the proceel
ings necessary to the building of a
500 bridge is sometimes more than
the cost OF the span itself.
The senate at play was a spectacle

amend. making the bowling alley
resolution a special order for Friday
morning at 7 o'clock. He thought
the senators with so much sporting
blood should be willing TO assemble
at that early hour TO make plans for
the match. McMasters moved to
amend by making Urdahl a commit
tee of m TO meet at 7 a. M. All
amendments We're lost. but the reso-
luton challenging the house carried,
and a red hot match may be expected

Wiped Out.

Wagner, Jan. 1S.-The business
section of the town of Ravinia, ten
miles northwest of Wagner, was al

fire reached that building. Practic-
ally everything was saved from the
Paul Jaehan Hardware company,
while the building was insured. The
butcher shop of Charles Frederick

belonging to III. Miller of Geddes.
There are only four business houses
left. Most of those burned were in

tails $4,000.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

By 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
infamed condition of the mucous lin

tube is infamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness
is the result, and unless this tube be
restored to its normal condition,

nine cases out of ten are caused by
