Consumption Is a disease caused by
impurity OF the blood, and the first thing
70 be done in its treatment is TO make
the blood pure, Ech and wholesome.
That is half the battle. The other half
Is the impregnation OF the blood with
cleansing healing, invigorating medi-
cines. The Golden Medical Dlscov-

Pacific railroad funding bill, and de-
nounce the efforts OF the present Re-
publican congress to enact a similar
measure.
PENSIONS.
Recognizing the just claims Of de-
serving union soldiers we heartily en-
dOrse the rule of the present commits
sioner OF pensions that no names shall
be arbitrarily dropped from the pen
sion roll; and the fact of enlistment
and service shonld be deemed CON-
elusive evidence against disease and
disability before enlistment.
TERRITORIES.
We favor the admission of the ter
ritories of New Mexico, Arizona and
Oklahoma into the United States,
and we favor the early admission of
all the territories haying the neces-
sary population and resources TO en-
title them TO statehood, and while
they remain territories, we hold that
the officials appointed to administer
the government OF any territory to-
gether with the District Of Columbia
and Alaska, should be bona flde resi-
dents OF the territory or district in

! The Democratic party believes in
home rule and that all public lands
of the United States should be appro-

We extend our sympathy to the
people of Cuba In their heroic strug-

THIRD TERM.
We are opposed to life tenure in the
public service. We favor appoint
ments based upon merit, fixed term OF
Office, and sach an administration OF
the civil service laws as will afford
equal opportunities To all citizens OF
ascertained fitness. We declare IL TO
be the unwritten law of this republic,
/ established by custom ana usage OF
one hundred years and sanctioned by
the examples of the greatest and
wlsest of those who founded and have
maintained our government, that no
man should be eligible for u third

WATERWAYS.
The federal gL 2ernment should care
