Boston supports 500 insane, says
Mr.. I. y. Sanborn. not IS OF whom
will recover!
This is frightful! Insanity has
increased 40 per cent in decade
and most Of these cases are incur
able. Whatever the individual cause
may be, the fact remains that Uric
Acid blood sets the brain on fire,
destroys its tissues, and then comes
some form of fatal lunacy.
Nothing is SO pitiable as mind
diseased. Most brain troubles begin
in the stomach: then il the blood is
filled with nric acid, caused by fail
ure OF kidney action, and the con-
sequent destruction Of the blood
life-albulnen-you have the fuel
and the flame and a brain in full
blaze as when one raves, or in slow
combustion, as in milder forms OF
insanity. Rev. E. d. Hopkins, OF st.
Johnsbury, Vt, a few years ago was
confined in an asylum. He took
q terrible cold while aiding in put
ting out fire in q neighbors burn
ing house, and for twenty-five years
that cold was slowly filling his blood
with uric acid ard finally the deadly
work was done. The case looked
hopeless but he happily used War
ner's safe cure and recovered. That
was three years ago and having rid
den blood Of all surplus uric acid, he
has remained well until this day.
1t is indeed a terrible thing to
lose ones mind, but it il a more
terrible thing to suffer such a con-
dition when it can be SO easily pre-
vented.

National Bank Taxation.

A generous friend and efficient
worker in our cause, who is always
bunting an opportunity to do good
writes us az follows: II SEQ that In
some OF your articles you say that
the national banks get money OF the
government ut one per cent. Dc
you mean to say that the banks pay
the government one per cent. inter.
est, or tax on it? We. as Iowa Ma.
tionals. claim that the government
issues it and makes it good by re-
demption IL the banks fail to do so
The bonds are held in the United
States treasury as collateral. But
the banks pay the government nc
tax OF one per cent. That was taken
off some years ago. Look it up ant
il you can find that the banks pay
the government q tax or interest o.
one per cent. annually or that the
national bank currency or green
backs are taxable in the peoples OF
the banks hands, / will subscribe
for fifty copies OF your paper. Tha
old law is repealed OF a l per cent
government tax. If am mistaken
write me and I will subscribe 70

than fiction.
| /. Senator Larrabce is Il true man
in every respect; TO the bosses, poll
| ticians and his own selfish interests.
I 2. His senatorial record OF eight
cen years is marred by broken
! pledges, and bristIes all over with
dcmagosism.
3. He proffered his services to his
country through ignorance or for ef-
fect-as he should have known that
Uncle Sam would not accept a man
who had lost an important member
ian eye, OF his body.
1. He gave his time and money
freely to speculate on bounties, and
government supplies.
5. He betrayed trust two years
ago by voting for prohibition after
having promised his constituents to
vote for license, and at the same
time betrayed scores Of true friends.
| 6. Several gentlemen have been
wrecked financially through his ages
cy, and high and lowly declare that

| Uses to them.
Z. We are puzzled to know in
what particular his superiority con-
sists, il he has been a superior sena-
tor. Will some editor please tell us
h<,I 1o,n -, Il Is
cy, and explain his connection with
the swamp land speculation? His
hands are not clean enough to WELD
the scepter Of Il great state like
Iowa.
s. He is opposed to our free
school system, and practically and
theoretically in favor of the old aris-
tocratic ilea Of employing private
tutors (tooters) at home. He is OPP
posed to paying taxes to educate
poor peoples children.) He wor-
ships Ingersoll and Darwin with his
monkey theory.
Q. II elected, he will surround
himself with such men as Boss
Clarkson.
10. His past record rs q citizen
and public official is ample proof Of
his unfitness for the office OF COVER
nor. He is not posted any better
than many other residents Of Cier-
mont, except on corn dodgers and
Johnny cakes. He could not distin-
guish a pumpkin from turnip nn-
less he accidentally learned to do SO
by reading some farm journal.
Study his character and the more
you learn about it the less you think
Of him. He has not done any mill
ing business for fourteen years. lie
is sole owner or the Ciermont bank
and is heavy stakeholder in eleven
other banks.
With such professional farmer

land shark and banker for a leader
the republican party merits defeat.

j. IL. Sweeney, senator from this
district il advertised for three
speeches in this county. II what Mr..
Sweeney talks, in the main, is re-
publican doctrine, the party would
not to the extent that it docs antayo-
nizc measures in tine interest OF the
people. To his credit belt said, he
introduced several bills in tie Sen
ate that should have been enacted
into laws, but as they were against
the corporations and III the
interests of the people they
were overwhelmingly defeated. An
instance or two will suffice to show
that measures which Mr.. Sweeney
introduces have no republican sup
port in the Legislature. Early in
the session he introduced rcsolu-
ton in favor of a law regulating
railroad freights and passenger
transportation. The resolution died
natural death, which means the
republican majority slaughtered it.
He also introduced senate file
No. so, authorizing actions against
railroads for discriminating in favor
of persons or places to be brought
by the State. This measure also
died a natural death.
He also introduced senate file No.
165, = bin for an act requiring
foreign corporations to file thcirar-
tisles of incorporation with the Sec
rotary Of state and imposing upon
them conditions that they sue and
be sued in the courts Of the same
as citizen.
This bill was pigeon-holcd by the
judiciary committee until the 3lst
day Of March, when the bill war
returned to the senate without
recommendation and then likewise
died a natural death from want OF
time to consider it.
These principles of this very
measure the party resolves in ia.
vor Of, because it is just and right,
but the resolutions answer their
purpose in securing the election of
the republican ticket. As it is now
foreign insurance companies when
sued for a loss, take the suit to the
United States court and compel
men who have been the victims Of
. fire to settle on the terms of the
company or be to great expense in
obtaining their just rights. And
the same with railroad companies
when sued for damages, resulting
from their own want Of care, they
take the case to the same court,
compelling a settlement OH their
own terms in nine cases out Of ten.
This bill of Swceney's was to rem
edy this evil. The disposition
made of that and Of similar meas.
ures demonstrates that Sweeney i
not a representative republican, and
that what he talks to the people as
to bills, he, as . republican, has
brought before the legislature,
ought not to influence any man to
vote for that party.
