!. How It Will End.

Hf"#"-t -FNNN" NHNNN RI
Scientists have different opinions as
to how this world will end, and most
Of them are as foolish as can be imag.
ined. One says that the surface Of the
earth is slowly but surely diminishing,
and that some day the land portion
will 60 into water, and that we shall
all be droned. Another says thal
eventually the earth's center of gravity
will be changed, and that WI will be
smashed to pieces In the debris. An.
other, that the earth is being drawn
nearer to the sun every day, and tina
when 1t gets there, we will be crematet
alive. Another, that humanity will
retrograde until It reaches nothing
Another, that we will be driven owe
to the equator aud be frozen to death
In the meantime we have to hustle TO,
a living while we are here.

About a year ago a clever artist, in
mere capriece, made an ingenious pic
ture of a canalboat being propelled by
the trolly. He received a few dollars
for the picture, and so far as he was
concerned that was the end oft. Some
scheming fellow up in Albany saw the
illustration and at once had a bill
passed appropriating $4,000 for ex-
perimenting. The results have proved
successful, and that politician is now
on the highway toward becoming .
millionaire. That artist il still making
pictures. As this sort Of power on
canalboats is likely TO become perma-
nent, it is just as we'll to tell everybody
the name Of the poor, struggling Or.
fist so that he may get some measure
Of justice. His name is ]. F. Burns

Children Who Suffer

from scrofulous, skin or scalp diseases,
ought to be given DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, for purifying the
blood. For children who are puny,
pale or weak, the discovery" Is a
tonic which builds up both flesh and
strength. What is said Of it for chill
dren applies equally to adults. As an
appetizer, restorative tonic, it sets at
work all the processes Of digestion and
nutrition, rouses every organ into
natural action, and brings back health
and strength. In recovering from
grippe" or in convalescence from
pneumonia, fevers, and other wasting
diseases, it speedily and surely invigor-
ates and builds up the whole system.
For all diseases caused by a torpid
liver or impure blood, as Dyspepsia
and Billiousness, If it doesn't cure in
every case, the money IS returned.

Peculiar to Itself.

Hoods Sarsaparilla is peculiar to
itself, In q strictly medicinal sense, in
three important particulars, viz; first,
In the combination Of remedial agents
used; second, in the proportion in
which they are mixed; third, in the
process by which the active curative
properties Of the preparation are Sc
cured. These three important points
mako Hoods Sarsaparilla peculiar in
it's medicinal merit, as it accomplishee
cures hitherto unknown. But it is NOT
what Hoods Sarsaparilla does, that
tells the story. What Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla has done for others is reason fol-
confidence that it is the medicine fol

The Reason Why

The Wisconsin Central has become
known as the popular route for tourists
and pleasure seekers, is because it pays
particular attention to this class of
travel, and caters to the comfort and
convenience of its patrons. Its trains
are equipped with the finest Pullman
sleeping cars, parlor cars, and dining
cars, in which the meals are unex-
celled. 1t is the travellers choice" to
all the principal summer resorts in the
northwest, and Yellowstone National
Park. Maps, time tables and guide

Talleyrand declared that a good. din
ner had great influence on human ac-
tons. This is certainly true. Many
a man loses his nerve from no greater
cause than an attack of biliousness.
Every business man should keep in his
desk Ramon's Tonic Liver Pills. A
box costs only 25 cents, but is worth
$25 in its results. Ask F. E. B~ritton,
your druggist about it, and have him
to give you a free sample dose.

A Great Feature

Of Hoods Sarsaparilla is that while it
purifies the blood and sends it coursing
through the veins full of richness and
health, it also imparts new life and
vigor to every function of the body.
Hence the expression so often heard:
Hoods Sarsaparilla made a new per-
son of me-" 1t oyercomes that tired
feeling so common now.

U
Adopted by the State Alliance at
Minneapolis Jan. 10, 1894.

WHEREAS The people of our state
and nation have recently had pre-
sented to them in a forcible manner
the means used by the ruling powers
to defeat the will of the people in
more than one instance: and
WHEREAS, The various corporate
and so-called financial leaders have
for years ruled the masses-rich and
poor alike-with a rod of iron, and
efectually prevented a fair express
sion of the sentiment prevailing
among all classes; therefore be it
RESOLVED, That we demand the
immediate and unconditional taxa
ton of all railroad lands, for current
as we'll as for back taxes.
RESOLVED, That we demand that
the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba
railway, and all other railway com
panies maintaining a corporate exis.
tence, be required to pay to the state
al taxes upon gross earnings received
by them and remaining due and un-
paid, even where such companies fail
to operate their lines of road but
have gross earnings:and we call upon
the attorney general to wind up all
such corporations as fail to them
selves operate their roads.
Resolved, That we cali upon the
governor of this state and the presi.
dent of the United States to remove
the present incompetent bank exam
liners, to the end that competent ex-
aminers may be appointed and the
public and private funds be deposit
ed in solvent and safe concerns.
Resolved. That the course pursued
by a part, if not all, of the ~so-called
daily press of the twin citiesin shield
ing and defending the criminal acts
of the official, political, and financial
leaders of this state, is a disgrace to
them, to the said cities, and to the
state of Minnesota, and calculated to
endanger the lives, liberty, and prop.
erty of her citizens, and to foster and
encourage the commission of crime.
Resolved, That in the recent decis'
ion of the Supreme court of this
state destroying the state elevator
law, we feel that said court has
usurped the legislative function and
set aside the will of the people, thus
destroying their sovereignty.
Resolved, That we demand that all
persons who have amassed their for
tunes out of school, university, or
state lands, be made to disgorge any
and all sums they may have illegally
or fraudulently acquired; and we in
vite all regents of the university,
and other officials, past and present,
who have sc acquired, or aided others
in unlawfully acquiring lands, to va
cate their offices and disgorge their
holdings.
Resolved, That we condemn the
measure known as the the State Cap
itOl Bill as well as the means by which
