1t makes no difference what goal we
aim at, the conditions are the same.
We live too fast, work too hard, drink
too much, sleep too little, keep our
nerves on the strain and jump all the

There are two classes of fast livers.
Those " ho work too hard and too

Increased speed in ANY machine,
human or otherwise, means increased
wear and tear and waste.
Increased waste of the tissues of the
body means increased work for the kid
neys, whose place ii is to remove
poisons and Impurities. Increased kid
ney work means increased strain upon
those organs, and increased strain With
out rest or relief means disease.
This is why so many fast livers, hard
workers, hard drinkers, and hard
smokers die of Brights disease.
Many men not satisfied with the
harm their overwork or fast life is do
ing them must needs add to it volun-
tarily by putting more poisons into the
system that still further add to the
work of the kidneys aud initiate and
infiame these organs.
We refer to Alcohol, Tobacco and

that plutocracy intends following

far as I know it has been treated
as a dead letter in this state. It

of the state government to pro-

The New York Sun, one of the
most malignant organs of the
money power, sneers at the
Democratic national committee
because it is short of funds. The
Sun cannot comprehend how a
political campaign can be car
ried ON without ''boodle." 1t is
true that an army Of speakers,
tons of campaign literature,
scores of brass bands and bar
rels of buttons come high, and
the Republicans have money
enough to buy them, but with
all their millions for campaign
purposes they have not enough
to buy the votes of the plain
people.

FOR my part, 90 not ASK any inter-
ference on the part Of government ex-
cept to undo the wrong it has done. I
do not ask for the prosperity born Of pa
per. But do ask for the remonetiza-
ton Of silver. Silver was demonetized
by fraud. It was an imposition upon
every honest man, a fraud upon every
honest debtor in the United States It
assassinated labor. It was done in the
interest of avarice and greed and should
be undone by honest men," - From.

PLUT0CRATIC
DESPERATION,
Menace to Self Govern
ment.
Some Astounding Goldbug
Threats. -

Here is another covert threat
which reveals the malignant and
reasonable desperation Of the pluto
Gratis. In recent speech at VIII
mington, DEL, ex-senator John B.
Henderson said:
''The Chicago platform of the
Democratic party seeks to inter-
fere with private contracts and
to revive the old doctrine of
state resistance to federal au-
thority.
'*This platform seeks to reor-
ganize the supreme court and
make it subservient to congress.
1T seeks by the coinage system
proposed to take the property OF
one class Of people without due
process Of law. 1t proposes such
things as drive a king into de-
served exile.
eff these men know what they
are doing, they certainly intend
to reOrganize the institutions of
this country. Should they be
elected and attempt to carry out
this plan, they will find no less
than 100000 or 100000
armed soldiers to resist it. We
will do as men did i'll 1861. We
asked simply then that the con-
stitution which Washington and
others framed should be pre-
served, and we are going to de-
fend it now. If nothing else will
do them, we will defend it as we
did in 1S61-'65, and there are
men who will bring Mr.. Bryan
and his cohorts in as prisoners
of war as they did Jefferson Da-
Wis then.'' ~ + " " ~
Disguise it as we may, this ven
omous declaration means that the
plutocrats will not submit to the
will Of the people if there is a pos
sible chance to overturn it. The

The Republicans are sending

those having their farms mort
gagged attempting to stampede
voters with the statement that
they cannot renew their loans if
Bryan is elected. Don't be
fooled. This is a contest to
bring property up to q parity
with money and to make money
more plentiful. Being more
plentiful, it will be easier to get.
