covered a mile in 81 seconds, which
would be more than 81 miles an hour.

1t isn't tie usual ,cay
it's just the reverse-to pay a
patient when You can't cure him.
Nevertheless, that's what's done by
the proprietors of DR.. Sage's Ca
tarrh Remedy. They promise to
pay you $500 if they can't cure
your catarrh, no matter how bad
the case. 1t isn't mere talk-it's
business. You can satisfy Yourself
of it, if you're interested. And you
ought to be, if you have catarrh.
It's faith in their medicine that's
behind the offer. 1t has cured
thousands of the worst cases, where
everything else failed. You can be
cured, too. If you can't, you get
the money. They're willing to take
the risk-you ought to be glad to
take the medicine.
It's the cheapest medicine YOU
can buy, because it's guaranteed to
give satisfaction, or your money is
returned.
You only pay for tie good you
get. Can You ask more?
That's the l1eculiar plan all DR..

THE FARMERS SIDE.
"Where we are, how we got here,
and the Way out.
BY Hon. w. A. PETER,
U.s. SENATOR PROM KANSAS.
12mo, cloth Price, S1.OO.

There is demand for comprehensive and
authoritative book which shall represent the
farmer, and set forth his condition, the influ-
ences surrounding him, and plans and prospects
for the future. This book has been written by
Hon. W. A. PETER, who was elected to the
United States Senate from Kansas to succeed
Senator Ingalls,. The title is TIE farmers
SIDE, and this indicates the purpose of the work.
In the earlier chapters, Senator PETER de-
scribes the condition of the farmer in various
parts of the country, and compares it with the
condition of men in other callings. He carefully
examines the cost of labor, of living, the prices
of crops, taxes, mortgages, and rates of interest
He gives elaborate tables showing the increase
of wealth in railroads, manufactures. banking,
and other forms of business, and he compares
this with the earnings of the farmer, and also
wage-workers in general. In a clear, forcible
style, with abundant citations Of facts and fig
ures the author tells how the farmer reached
his present unsatisfactory condition. Then fol-
lows an elaborate discussion of " The Way out,n
which is the fullest and most authoritative pres
entation of the aims and views of the Farmers,
Alliance that has been published including full
discussions OF the currency, the questions of
interest and mortgages, railroads, the sale Of
crops, and other matters of vital consequence.
This book is the only one which attempts to
cover the whole ground, and it is unnecessary
TO emphasize its value. 1t is compendium of
the facts, figures, and suggestions which the
farmer ought 70 have at hand.
The farmers SIDE has Just been issued,
and makes a handsome and substantial book
OF $50 pages. We have arranged with the pub
Usher for its sale TO our readers at the pub
fishers price. The book may be obtained at
our Office, or we will forward copies 10 any
address, postpaid, receipt Of s1.6O per copy.

The CRIME OE 1874

Eminent Republican and Democratic Au-
thOrIty For the Use of the Term
'Crime."
We have often designated the demon
citation of silver as crime against the
people. The masses of both parties
have thought the same thing, and have
demanded that silver be restored to the
same money function with gold, and
given the same privilege of coinage that
it formerly had. Some, because the
politicians say SO, are beginning to
doubt the expediency of silver coinage.
We want to give here two extracts from
men who have been honored and trust
ed by their respective parties as few
men have:
No greater wrong was ever attempted upon a
generous people than the bill OF 1873. 1t was a
crime. Gold and silver ought to be treated
alike. It Is amusing to see how English finan-
ciers rule us.-Edwards Pierrepont o republi-
can congressman from New York, in St Louis
convention in 1885,
But the crime that Is now sought to be perpe-
trated on more than fifty millions OF people
comes neither from the camp Of a conquerer

tdolater. But IL comes from those in whose
veins runs the blood of a common ancestry who
were born under the same skies speak the sama
language, were reared in the same institutions
and nurtured in the principles OF the same relig-
ious faiSh 1t comes from the cold, phlegmatic

which refuses to be satisfied without the suf-

atiyes of the American people 10 meet its bold
and insoent demand like men. Let US stand in
the breach and call the battle on, and never
leave the field until the peoples money shall be
restored TO the minis on equal terms with gold
as IL was years ago.-Roger @ Mills, OF Texas,
in Congress, February 3, 1886.
