Hats came off as the flag passed by, and remarks were heard every where in compliment to the fine ap pearance of the troops and , the bea coned look of soldiers as they marched along. At the head of the column was a platoon of police, followed by the Coast Artillery band and a Coast Artlllerj company in uniform, as escort.

RULES REVISION IS SOUGHT To Relieve Catarrhal Deafness and Head Noises Persons suffering from catarrhal deafness and head noises will be glad to know that this distressing affliction ran usually be successfully treated at home by an Internal medicine that in many instances has effected complete relief, after other treatments nave failed. Sufferers who could scarcely hear have had their hearing restored to such an extent that the tick of a watch was plainly audible seven or eight inches away from either ear. There fore, if you know of someone who is troubled with head noises or catarrhal deafness, cut out this formula and hand it to them and you may have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. The pre scription can be prepared at home and is made as .follows: Secure from vour druggist 1 oz. Par ment (.Double Strength), about 7 5 cents' worth. Take this home and add to it H pint of hot water and 4 oz. of granu lated sugar; stir until dissolved. Take one tablespoonf ul four times a day. Parmint is used in this way not only to reduce by tonic action the inflamma tion and swelling in the Eustachian Tubes, and thus to equalize the air pressure on the drum, but to correct any excess secretions in the middle car, and the results it gives are nearly always quick and effective. Every person who has catarrh in any form should give this recioe a trial. Adv. ROSEBURG WANTS ROAD BOXDS Proposal for $7,900,000 issue With Refnnd by Auto Tax Indorsed. ROSEBURG, Or.. Feb. 16.

The com mittee of 27 Republican members of the House, created at a recent caucus to consider "matters affecting the or ganization of the next House," agreed tonight that the Republicans shall ex- rt every effort to secure control of the House in the next Congress. The committee organized by choosing Rep resentative Madden, of Illinois, chair man and Representative Greene, of Vermont, secretary, and adjourned to meet next Thursday night. There was a general round table ex pression of views tonight. The Demo crats claim 215 members of the next House and the Republicans claim 215, with both sides looking to the five members of the independent group for additional strength. While there was some expression of doubt as to the advisability of seeking a doubtful con trol of the House under the extraordi nary situation confronting the Nation, it was agreed the country expects the Republicans to seek control and the decision to organize for tha purpose followed. , ; There were no formal resolutions and the discussion, after decision to go ahead with organization, was of a pre liminary nature. It Indicated the probability of a fight for revision of the rules of the House, the creation of a steering committee and of a com mittee on committees, as part of the programme for bringing all elements of the party together. There were Incidental references to the Speakership In the event of the Re publicans gaining control of the House, and general acceptance of the view that Republican Leader Mann would be the party's candidate for Speaker. The subject of floor leadership, in which Representative Lenroot's name has figured, was not discussed. mand of Troop A, said the service the men have been called upon to perform has been most difficult and trying.

Captain WJiite asked when the hur rahs are over, that the need of a num ber of the soldiers for employment be not forgotten. Colonel II. S. Fargo, who represented the Grand Army, was greeted by those present rising. He said all are proud of the troops' record. Lieutenant Elmer Lunberg, of the Spanish War Veterans, spoke for the revival of patriotism and urged that this spirit be cherished. Major Hiram U. Welch, represented the veterans of "Battery A, He said that as a former commander of Battery A., he felt proud of the record the or ganization had made, and he welcomed them home. Captain Frank M. Tebbetts, former captain of Troop A. spoke briefly, and General Charles F. Beebe declared It was an inspiring occasion and a proud day for Oregon. George L. Baker said that the home folks had also made a great sacrifice in sending their boy's to the border, and he pledged his aid in securing employment for those who need it. Rufus C. Holman, County Commissioner, also promised his as sistance along that line. Reveptloa and Dance Follow.
