GIudness Comes

With n better understanding OF the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasante efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
ORGANS on which it acts. It's therefore
ali important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep.
utable druggists. -,
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laxa-
tives or other remedies are not needed.
IL afflicted with any actual disease, one

physicians, but If in need of laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informede everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely

A Republican for Silver.

DEBORAH, Iowa, July, 22.-Special:
A. L. Himle, prominent republican
attorney of this county, comes out
for democracy and free silver. He
cannot endorse the goldbug platform
of the republican party, and SO repu-
dates Mckinley and the crowd and
has declared his intention of voting
and working for the success of democ-
racy and free silver this fall. Mr..
Himle is Norwegian, and for
ten years was an active organizer
and stumper for the republicans of
Minnesota, where he formerly
resided. His reputation of the gold
standard party will have great in
fluence with the Norwegian-Ameri-
cans of this congressional district,
particularly if he should stump the
district in the interest of free silver,
as has intimated he may do. He is
one of the best informed men upon
the silver question IN the district,
and good camp aigner.

We live in country of which the
principal scourge is stomach.trouble.
1t is more widespread than any
other disease, and very nearly, more
dangerous.
One thing that makes it so danger
Gus is that it is SO little understood.
If it were better understood, it
would be more feared, more easily
cured, less universal than it is now.
So, those who wish to be cured,
take Shaker Digestive Cordial, be-
cause it goes to the root of the
trouble as no other medicine does.
The pure, harmless. curative herbs
and plants, of which it is composed,
are what render it SO certain and, at
the same time, SO gentle cure.
1t helps and strengthens the
stomach, purifies and tones up the
system.

J. K. Macomber comfy a+tornay

j. X. Macomber, county attorney
of Polk county, publishes an article
in the Des Moines Register, copied
into the Cresco Republican, the i'm
port of which is to induce the belief
that the act of 1878 providing for the
coinage of silver into standard silver
dollars of 41sa grains is still in force
and that such dollars are being
coined, and silver certificates issued
thereon, while the fact is no silver
dollars are being coined and no silver
certificates are being issued. The
The Sherman act of 1890 did the bus
mess for both and the act of 1898 re-
pealing the Sherman law eliminated
silver from our coinage, except the
minor coins which are only legal
tender in small amounts. Silver de-
mocrats and greenbackers did not
need J.K. Macomber to tell them that
silver and silver certificates under the
law of 1878 were full legal tender I'M
til the Sherman law provided for con-
tracts denying them such tender.
But Macomber making the discovery
cackles over it like young pullet
discovering its first egg.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
intlamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets intlamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
Illumination can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

Hofer's Reply to CIarkson.
(Manchester Democrat.)


Many of our readers will remember
the Hofers. They were stalwart re-
publican editors in this state for
many years, and they are now pub
fishing the Daily Capital-J ournal at
Salem, Oregon. Their paper is re-
publican iu politics, but not of the
new gold standard brand. Editor
Clarkson of the Iowa State Register
recently undertook to discipline his
old friend E. Hofer, assuring him
that he was making the mistake OF
his life in not swallowing the Wall
street program in it's entirety. Mr..
Hofer's reply is upwards of two and a
half columns long and is an ably
written paper. Here is Mr.. Hofer's
closing paragraph:
The silver repub licans of our land
say the silver democrats and the sill
yer populists, brothers this is cause
of humanity and in the name of hui
manity's God let us clasp hands
against policy of endless currency
contraction and endless debt to the
bondholders, and found our financial
system upon the two common money
metals of the human race-gold and
silver. If we of the west and the
poor people do nothing to check the
tide of Capitalization, who in Gods
name will do it for US? Certainly not
the men in whose hands we find the
wealth of the nation heaped up by
processes of legislation and fictitious
capitalization based on the various
branches of the public service. The
only valid argument in favor of the
gold standard is that it will en- able
the owners of corporations, stock
companies, or whatever can be syndi-
Gated or bonded, to sell their securi-
ties abroad and by pledging the gov
eminent to maintain the gold stand
ard, they can mortgage the resources
and productive energies of seventy
millions Of people far into the future
and create a few thousand more
American millionaires and few mil
lion more tramps. l plead with you
Mr.. Clarkson, in the name of God
and humanity, give us chance to
escape this awful burden of the flu
ture. Let us dig our own money out
of our own fertile prairies and metal
veined mountains and coin rs the ba-
sis of our wealth, in place of borrow
ing gold from Europe to keep our
own mines closed and our own people
in bondage to the wealth of other
people.

Wall Street for Mckinley and Ho-

UoAUs
The Manchester Democrat prefaces
an article from the New York World
as follows:
The New York stock exchange
worked itself into Mysteries at re-
cent meeting over the nomination of
Bryan and Sewell. The tumult end
ed with an organization of "Bank-
ers' and Brokers' Mckinley Cam
paign Club" consisting of democrats
and republicans.
The New York World sees danger
to Mckinley in the open support of
these men. 1t says that the griev-
ances of the country against Wall
Street are real and just. Although
the World is quoted as one of the pa
pers opposed to the Chicago platform
it attacks McKinley's Wall street
friends in the following manner:
1t is the concrete and combined
power for which wall street" is the
symbol in the popular mind that has
made q monopoly of transportation,
that has brought all the great prime
necessaries of life-iron, steel, coal,
oil, beef, sugar and hundred others
under the control of trusts and
combinations that Cypress labor at
one end and rob consumers at the
other.

the treasury of gold and exacted u.s.
urous millions from the Government

sorbers of money that you never

ton and all the demagogy at the
South and West to raise the spectre
of Anarchy and Populism at which
you now stand affrighted.
What the World is frightened at,
the spectre of anarchy, in the Chicago
platform is anarchy and lawlessness
combined in what it describes as the
combined power of Wall street.

The Cedar Rapids Gazette remarks:
'There are still those who assert that
free coinage of silver at ratio of 16
to would be reputation of debts
and obligation. 1t is poor rule that
does not work both ways. If remoni-
tization would enable debtors to pay
obligations in dollars worth but so
cents then decentralization enabled
creditors to collect two dollars where
one is due. There is no escape from
the conclusion, on the arguments of
those who claim that reputation of
half the debts of the country would
result from free coinage.

The Chicago Chronicle to be Stunned
as Viper.

No one should longer be deceived
by the Chicago Chronicle. In its re-
ports of the late democratic conven-
ton in Chicago it came out and dis
played its true colors; in its mean, ly-
ing, scandalous attacks upon demo-
Gratis, it went far beyond the most
yirulent republican organs; indeed
it exhausted its vocabulary of yitu-
perate abuse of every body and every
thing not for the gold standard, The
Chronicle is owned by a syndicate of
bankers, and is far removed from
anything democratic as it is possible
to conceive of. Any honest democrat
who purchases copy of it, is simply
helping to sustain an assassin who is
seeking the death of true democracy.
Democrats should shun it as they
would viper.-Grinnell Independent
