Rabbits Appeal to the Pone.

American and German rabbis have petitioned
the pope to take firm stand against the false
accusations that Hebrews perform bloody rites
at their passover. They ask his holiness to de-
clare pontifcally that this statement has been
proved to be utterly unfounded by the study Of
the Hebrew scriptures and rites.

A Good Testimonial.

The following testimonial from the
Farm, Field and Stockmdn pays a high
compliment 70 the preparations OF Geo.
II. steketee, Grand Rapids, Mich, whose
advertisement appears In this paper:
A few weeks ago we noticed our family
horse was troubled with bad cough, wOrBO
In the morning before feeding, though 10
continued through the day, whether on tho
road or IN tho stable. We could not attrib-
uto 10 20 a cold, or 90 dusty hay, and made
up our mind II must be caused by worms.
we remember worms affected the children
that way-and decided, instead OF reporting
the case 10 our veterinarian, TO send 10 Geo.
II. Stoket00, Grand Rapids, Mich, for a
package OF his Worm Destroyer-HOg OhOl-
era Cure. Aitor this decision was made,
worms passed the horse, 80 w0 were more
than ever Interested Ia finding out what o.
feet tho "cure' would have on tho cough.
In due time the package came, and We gave
as directed. Every trace OF tho cough was
gone before Ghe last dose was given. Now
Mr.. St0koteo does not claim his medicine 90
bo ourO-all, but hO does claim II will kill
worms. And more animal ailments arc due
20 worms than Is generally supposed. We
have seen many letters from those who have
had good results from the use OF this rem
edy, but this Ia the tlrat we have known OF a
case OF cough being cured by worm do
atrOyor, 40 we are moro than ever satisfied
Of Che value OF this growing medicine. Score
one more for Stek0tee, Editor.

THE ALLIANCR PROGRESSING.

To the Editor OF THE ADVOCATE;
The republicans proclaimed that after
the election was over the alliance organi-
zatlon would fall TO pieces and become
disorganlzed, but they are sadly mis-
taken as the order was never In better
circumstances than at the present time,
and II another election should be held
tomorrow we could elect every man on
our ticket, for thousands of men had no
Idea Of our strength and principles, and
many are now falling In line with us
who proclaim that hereafter they will
vote with the peoples party. There Is
no question but the silver and tariff acts
had some effect on the people, but the
greatest cause lies further back;
il is the consolidation of capital in the
interests Of combines and monopolies and
the contraction OF the currency. There
Is not sufficient money in circulation for
our population. AT this age il takes four
times the amount Of money to run
family that 1t did forty years ago OF the
same size. The wealth and money Ia
