Perhaps some Of our readers
would like to know in what re-
spect Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy is better than any other. We
will tell you. When this remedy
is taken os soon as a cold has been
contracted, and before it has be-
come settled in the system, it will
eounteract the effect of the cold
and greatly lessons it's severity,
and it is the only remedy that will
do this. 1t acts in perfect harmo-
ny with nature and aids nature in
relieving the lungs, opening the
secretions, liquefying the mucus
and causing its expulsion from
the air cells of the lungs and re-
storing the system to a strong and
healthy condition. No other rem
edy in the market possesses these
remarkable properties. No other
will cure cold so quickly. For
sale by all druggist.

Cleveland and his administra-
ton hackers say they are friends
of bi-metalIism, and that while
they were elected to repeal the
miserable make-shift, known as
,-yI,.c---z-rs- I'D lii H.
same voters that elected them for
that purpose, also voted for the
maintenance of both gold and sill
yer at a parity. Yet these admin
minlstrationists say, the way to
do this is to kill the only thing
that gives life to silver, repeal the
only law that in the least main
tains silver at all, thus leaving sill
yer so far as the future is concern
ed, wholly without any provision,
by swiping out of existence every
thing that in the least provides for
the existence of silver. Then af-
forwards adopt such measures as
will provide for the maintenance
of both gold and silver at parity.
This is very good policy, and
would serve the ends if carried out.
Cleveland and his administration
lists were also elected to repeal and
readjust the tariff laws. Now to
be consistent they must swipe out
of existence every tariff law, abol-
ish tariff completely, then adopt
such laws as are needed. viii they
do that? To repare a house, or
put up a new plank, it becomes
necessary to wholly demolish the
house and build new one. The
height of absurdities.

1t was reportc d Sept 9th, that
the gold advocates and the protec-
tionists had formed a combination.
The next day Sept 28, it was report
ed that the protectionists of the
north and east, and the silver adj
vocates of the west and south had
formed combination. These COM
binations are dangerous at all
times in Legislation. They result
in compromises, neither party get
ting full measure. They serve also
to thwart the will of the people.
The silver advocates were elected
to maintain silver and gold at
parity. The protectionists were
sent there to get all the protection
possible for the industries of their
respective countries. On that line
they should fight it out if takes
all the summer.

To the People of Sumner County.

1t is more than ever evident to the
observer Of the political signs of the
cay that if the Peoples party is to
continue its victorious march it
must perfect its organizations. The
old parties each have a system of club
organizations that unite their forces
under intelligent and crafty leader
ship, that enables them to move for
ward in their campaign in solid pha-
lanx and capture all the weaklings in
the unorganized ranks of our Peoples
party.
Then it is evident that we must
have perfect system in our organ
izatiOn as a political body. We must
have it in order to keep our forces TO-
gether, in order to keep any from go
ing over to the enemy when the battle
at the ballOt-bOx is on, in order to
provide the necessary means to do
effective campaign work. The old
parties are largely supported in their
campaign work by money of the Office
holders and the monied corporations,
whose interests they support. The
Peoples party is pledged to support
the interests Of the whole people.
therefore it is in no sense upheld by
corporations or monied interests and
must get its support from the people.
In other words ourparty is a party "of
the people for the people" and must
beupheld and supported by the people.
The Industrial Legion of the [. S. A.
is the organization which is. oppOr-
tune. Init and through it we can
unite and accomplish our purposes as
a political body. It's plans have been
made as nearly perfect at the last
meeting of the Executive body at
Washington, ID. c. on Feb. 22nd. az it
is possible tn make them at present.
