POWER
DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
j by local applications, as they cannot reach
ine diseased portidn of the ear. 1 here is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the mu
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed yon have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed Deafuess is the result, and
unless the inflamation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condition,
bearing will be destroyed forever; nine 1
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall s Catarrh Cure.

ITCHING AND SCALY
Skin Disease 9 Years. Doctors and
Medicines Useless. Cured by
Cutlcura for $4.75.
I eel it is my duty to tell you my experience
with your Cuticura Remedies. I have been
troubled for over nine years with a dreadful skin
disease. When I first felt
it, there appeared a lew
small red spots on my
breast, and it kept on
spreading slowly. It start,
ed the same ou my back,
between my shoulders. A
few days after the spots
turned gray, and began
itching, bmull scutes wcukl
fall off, so it continued
spreading afl over my
body. I tried all the pat
ent medicines I could think
of, or get bold of. 1 also
consulted doctors. Yes,
tbev would euro me in a
short time, but they always failed. Then I gave it
all up, thinking there was no cure 'or me. (some
few months ago, I noticed your advertisement in
the Tacoma Morntna Globe: thought I would try
the Uuticuba Remedies, not thinking it would do
me much good, but to my surprise, three boxes of
Cuticura, one cake of Coticcba 8oap. and three
bottles of Cuticura Resolvent cured me entirely.
My skin is now as white and pure as that of a child.
I send my photograph. I nave many friends ia

the father of Professor P. H. Irish ,

at the time of his death was 66 years of age.
For a number of years he bas been promi

came in contact. He was a warm-hearted,,
generous man and those who knew him best

IN THE NICK OF TIME.
The nick of time to stop the course of blad -dor
and kidney complaints is when the or
gans concerned exhibit a tendency to grow
inactive. The healthful impulse toward ac
tivity that they receive from Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters rescues them from impend
ing danger, nnd averts such dangerous mala
dies as Bright's disease and diabetes. Slug
gishness of the kidneys increases a liability
to chronic rheumatism, gout and dropsy, and
since the blood is filtered by these organs in
its passage through them, the operation of
the Bitters serves a doubly happy purpose.
The medicine acts without exciting, like the
fiery stimulants of commerce. Malarial,
dyspeptic, constipated and nervous invalids
are thoroughly relieved by it. Since the ad
vent of that shocking malady, la grippe, it
has been widely demonstrating its usefulness
as a curative and preventive of it.
A CARD. "
We desire to express, so far as in our
power, our gratitude to our friends who so
faithfully assisted us in the last sickness of
our beloved children. Roy and Bertha. We
can never forget the many kind acts, and
words of sympathy so geuerously extended
us. Such acts and expressions of sympathy
soften our sorrows and give us , glimpses of
the worth of true friendship only visible to
those who have suffered as we have.

Not So Bad After All.
E. V. Wood, of McKee's Rocks, Allegheny
county, Pa., in speaking to a traveling man
of Chamberlain's medicine said: I recom
mend them above all others. I have used
them myself and know them to be reliable.
I always guarantee them to my customers
and have never had a bottle returned."
Mr. Wood had hardly finished speaking,'
when a little girl came into the store with an
empty bottle. It was labeled "Chamber
lain's Pain Balm." The traveler was inter,
ested, as there was certainly a bottle com
ing back, bnt waited to bear what the little
girl said. It was as follows: ' "Mamma
wants another bottle of that medicine; she
says it is the hest medicine for rheumatism
she ever used." 60 cent bottles for sale by

GEN. WEAVER'S SPEECH.
Gen. Weaver, of Iowa, addressed the peor
pie of this city last Monday afternoon at
the opera' house, in the interests of the peo
ple's party. The general is a pleasant
speaker, but is more inclined to depend
upon his ability to draw npon the senti
ments and emotions of his audience than
upon sound argument, even as an able law
yer pleads before a jury for mercy for his
client. His speech was more remarkable
for the points he left out than for the points
he made. After devotine considerable time
to remarks about his early life and his trav
els in the South, he discussed free coinage
of silver to some length, stamping Governor
Pennoyer as an out and out people's party
man, quoting numerous extracts from the
governor's Albiua speech to sustain his ar
gument. Then he tried to show how, un
der the mauagemeut of the old parties,
trusts and combines had formed and pros
pered, and how the poor farmer has been
made to bear the burdens, etc., but he en
tirely forgot to say anything about the great
farmers warehouse trust and wheat com
bine in Kansas last year; just a little lapse
of memory, of course.
The general also took the quite sure
ground of telling the people that they ought
to have more money than they have, but all
who investigate aud think for themselves
will be likely to differ with him regarding
the method t securing it.
One of the statements made would lead
to such erroneous and distorted conclusions ,
that it cannot be permitted to pass unchal
lenged. He stated that after the close of
the late war there were in round numbers
$2,000,000,000 in circulation among 25,000,
000 peoples, while at present there are only
$1,600,000,000 circulating among 60,000,
000. The contrast is certainly a remarka
ble one, and if there was any truth in the
statement there would be good reason for
considering the matter of securing individual
relief by iucreasing the government is
sue of money.
On several points the general quoted gov
ernment reports, but he failed to give any
authority for the assertion .that there were
two billion dollars in circulation in 1865 and
his assertion when opposed to government
reports on the subject will hardly stand.
According to the report of the secretary of
the treasury, instead of two billion dollars
there were $635,719,266 in circulation in
1S65. Of this amount $423,757,604 were
legal tender notes, ' $402, 863 old demand
notes, $26,334,743 in fractional currency
and $176,213,966 notes of national banks,
including gold notes. . Taking then Gen.
Weaver's method of calculation, we find
that the circulation per capita was $25.43.
The total circulation April 1, 1892, was
$1,609,641,530, or $24.68 per capita. Cbnse
quently the amount of money circulatingin
the country in 1865 gave each person 75 cents
more than at present,, The south is not in
cluded in this1 calculation at all; if we in
clude the south the circulation per capita
would then be brought far below that of
to-day.
Even supposing that there were two bill- I
ion dollars in circnlation at the close of the
war, it will be remembered by all who are
old enough to know anything about it, that
nearly all the money in circulation at that
time was in the form of legal tender notes,
which could be negotiated only at a dis
count of from 25 to 50 per cent. This was
oue of the points on which the general was
sileut. '
H made use of numerons illustrations
relative to a number of the millionaires of
the country, forgetting, perhaps, that all of
them procured their wealth through their
own efforts. - He failed also to give any
remedy for the existing state of affairs. lie
surely wonld not attempt to deprive them
of this property to which they have every
right, but what would he do ? He wound
up bis speech by soliciting subscriptions to
his paper.
R. M. Veatch in Corvallis. Hon. R.
M. Veatch, the democratic nominee for
congress, and E. R. Skipworth, addressed a
fair-sized audience at the ourt house in
this city lost Tuesday evening. Veatch
was the first speaker and went over the
same old tariff grounds which all of his pre
decessors have trodden, making no new
points at all. Skipworth, in his remarks,
led off with a tirade on the supreme judge
question, berating Judge Moore, thd repub
lican candidate for that position, in every
possible line. He then tried tie old dodge
of attempting to curry favor with the farm
ers and laboring men by telling them how
down-trodden they were, and how the poor
old democratic party was laboring to assist
them, etc., but failed to make any appre
ciable impression. Mr. Skipworth also pro
ceeded to "go after" Hermaun for what he
had done in congress, comparing his work
with Veatch's career in the Oregon legisla
ture, where the latter earned the title of
Pennoyer's right-hand man, the man who
voted "No" on every question which came
up, with the exception of the bill of appro
priation for the work at the dalles of the
Columbia, and this merely because Pen
noyer directed him to do so. Veatch's rec
ord is certainly more notable for what he
did not do for the farmer and laborer and
constituents than for what he did do. v
A dispatch was received in this city
Wednesday announcing the death, at Cot
tage Grove, of Mrs. C. A. ' McCully, wifo
of the engineer of the water works in this
city. Upon receipt of the intelligence Mr.
McCully started .for Cottage Grove for the
purpose of bringing the remains to this place
for burial. Mrs. McCully had been travel
ing in Southern Oregon and California for
some time past for the benefit of her health,
but it appears that no permanent beuetit
was secured. The bereaved husband has
