Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflaned condition of the mu- cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inamed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness is the result. and unless the infiamma ation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condi- ton. hearing will be Destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an unframed condition of the mucous surfaces.

The Progressive party deplores
the survival in our civilization of the
Darbaric system of warfare among
nations, with its enormous waste of
resources even i'm time of peace and
the consequent impoverishment of
the life of the toiling masses. We
pledge the party to use it's best en-
deavors to substitute judicial and
other peaceful means of settling in
ternational differences. We favor
an international agreement for the
limitation of naval forces Pending
such an agreement, and as the best
means of preserving peace, We pledge
ourselves to maintain, for the present
the policy Of building two battleships
a year."
Two battleships a year. Not word
about an adequate army, but some
very vague and indefinite stuff about
the toiling masses, and judicial and
other peaceful means of settling in
ternational differences" When one
contrasts these past words and deeds
of the Colonel with his present propa-
ganda for universal military service
and a tremendous army and navy
We suspect that he is something of
an opportunist. Four years ago his
voice was all for social justice To-
day it is all for war. In 1920 it will
be for-who can say what? The Col
onel shifts his position constantly to
catch the popular breezes. A great
faunal naturalist, but not a safe man
for the Presidency in these uncertain
times.-Cumberland Times.

THE GREAT RECORD.

The American people do not want
war: Mr.. Wilson has kept them out
OF war. The American people approve
policy of extensive preparedness to
guarantee their safety as a nation and
the non-interference of foreign pow
ers with their rights and their com
merce. Mr.. Wilson has set in motion
such policy. In the great inter-
national crisis which came all unex-
pectedly upon him to demand SO much
of his patience and attention, he has
handled with wisdom and at no sacri-
flee of the national honor.
At the same time, in the conduct of
the domestic affairs of the country he
and his administration and the Demo
the enactment of constructive legis-
lature for the countrys benefit, which
in volume and beneficience has never
been equalled AS l.. Ames Brown
in the Review of Reviews puts it:
The chief legislative measures for
which the President stands personally
responsible are the Underwood Tariff
Act, the Federal Reserve Act, the
Trade Commission Act, the Rural
Credits Act and the Tariff Commits
sion Act. There is an imposing num-
Der of business, labor and public well
fare enactments besides, which I have
no space to discuss here. 1t is the
greatest achievement of any American
President of modern times. All of
the measures named with the eXcep-
ton of the tariff act, has received or
are certain to receive the support of
substantial bodies of Republicans in
Congress. The Republican platform
criticizes the Rural Credits Act, but a
majority of Republican members of
Congress voted for the measure. The
Republican platform declared for a
Tariff Commission, and its authors re-
fused to consider any declaration in
criticism of the Currency Act, know

country's appreciation of that meas

WHY DIDN'T T. R. ENLARGE THE
ARMY WHEN HE HAD THE
OPPORTUNITY!

Former President Roosevelt never
permits an opportunity to escape
these days to denounce the present
administration for the weakness OF
the United States army. Whether ne
succeeds in getting the nomination
for the presidency for himself or not
he evidently purposes to continue
waging the campaign for the defeat OF
the Democratic candidate on the
plea that the United States has not
enough soldiers. In this matter Col.
Roosevelts present pleadings are en-
tirely at variance with his acts while
president himself.
A philadelphia editor the other day
called attention to the fact that:
First the army was reduced In
1902 from 1927 men to 66,497, and
successive reductions weakened II
still further until in 1907 it numbered
less than $4,000 electives"
Compare this performance with the
COlOnels recent statement IN MS
Chicago speech:
Unless we prepare in advance we
cannot. when the crisis comes be
true 10 ourselves. If we cannot De
true to ourselves, it is absolutely GER
tain that we shall be false to everyone
else"
This comparison is made to show
the basic insincerity Of the Colonels
present noisy plan of campaign. When
he had the opportunity as President
to prepare in advance for a crisis he
met the situation by cutting the army
to the bone That was in 1907. Five
years later, in 1912, he was the Bull
Moose candidate for President and
drafted that party's platform. Let
US see how he wanted the nation to
prepare for a warlike crisis. The
plank embodying the Colonels views
on Ureparedness at that time follows:

Fl Paso, July Reports that Pancho

captured Jiminez and is sweeping Car
ranzistas before him in a victorious
march TO the north. have spread rap
idly to-day throughout Northern Mex

Apprehension among Carranza Off
cials was increased to-day when reports
were received that a number Of Car
rama garrisons in the north were going
over 10 Villa and that the bandit chief
rapidly was regaining his old hold with
the chihuahua forces The reported
capture Of Jiminez by Villa to-day lacks
Official confirmation, but the report has
come from many sources, and the ac-
tions Of Carranza officials indicate that
IL IS true.
Whether Villa really is in command
Of the army Of more than 1000 bandits
which on Monday exterminated Car
rama force near Jiminez and killed the
Carranza general has not been def

country to-day say 10 was reported
there that Villa was leading the forces.
The possibility Of American troops
from ,the Colonia Dublan base moving
south TO attack the Nillistas was dis
cussed among army men here to-day.
Il is believed by many that once 1t IS
determined beyond doubt that Villa is
alive and at the head OF large force
the American troops will move quickly
10 attack him, despite any opposition
Carranza may offer. Only by the capt

was indicated by the wholesale deser-
tions Of Carranzistas to the Villa force
in the Jiminez district. Large bodies OF
Carranza troops, sent to defend Jlmi-

Ramoss force Monday, have gone over
TO the bandit chieftain, according TO re-
