Poisons ~engendered by food %fermentine
In a dyspeptio stomach are the direct
cause of rheumatism, govt. bronchitis,
liver and kidney complaints, asthma,
pneumonia and many nervous ailments,
These results are prevented by the use
of the Shaker Digestive Cordial, a remedy
discovered and prepared by the Shakers
of Mount Lebanon, N. Y. 1t is in itself q
food and has power to digest other food
saksu with it. Thus it rests the diseased
stomach and finally masters the worst
cases of dyspepsia. 1t acts promptly and
fresh strength and increase of weight
soon follows. The first dose, taken imme-
diately after eating, abates the pain and
distress 80 dreaded by dyspeptics. Trial
bottles-enough to prove its merit-10

The INTELLIGENCER Is not a
woFshipper of Governor Stone. We
recognize his ability and we have
criticised his mistakes, but we have nc
patience with the contemplate fight
being made upon him by the Republic.
Read between the lines, and in the
light Of the past and present condition
ct the Republic, its most serious OBJ
lection to Stone is that he is working
for 16 to l. If the governor were not
such an ayoWsd free silver man, and n
less tireIess worker. he you'd be sugar
coated By the Repnbiic too deep for
rscogniiIon. The Republic is not
hurting. Stone half so much as it is
cutting its own throat. The methods
1t is now using are, to say the least,
contemplate in the extreme. The
forgery of a letter to down an adver-
sary Is g new thing in the newspaper
field, but the Republic accomplished
the feat beautifully.

Our sanctum was frightened Monday
for an hour or two by 4 call from
Editor Gus Leftwich, of Richmond,
who was passing through the city en-
route to Sedalia, where the Seventh
congressional district, of which he
is chairman, met on Tuesday. Mr..
Leftwich IS one of the best known
editors and politicians in the state,
and is associated with Hon. George
Trigg in publishing the Conservator,
one OF the best papers in the west.
Editor Leftwich chatted fluently on the
political situation, and if everything
turns out as he has it figured, McKin-
ley or no other republican will be the
next president. He believes that
democracy will triumph and have votes
TO spare. We had never met Gus
Leftwich as much as we had heard of
him. He took the prize for being the
ugliest man in Saline county, and we
had formed an impression of
OF him. Instead of being ugly, he is
the handsomest editor we have seen in
a long time, as we'll as the most conf
dent democrat. Editor, when O

The SILVER democrats must get up
and hustle for the next few days.
The gold bugs have their plans laid TO
capture the convention at Odessa. Go
to work and get the silver forces out
next Saturday. Lafayette county does
not want to instruct for Dave Francis
for United States senator, nor does it
want to go on record for a continuance
of the present ~bankrupting financial
policy. Make the fight to a finish.
The large majority is for free silver,
but don't be too confident. Go to the
precinct meetings and register your
vote. Take your neighbors with you.

If it Is a fact that republicans and
populists voted in Lexington Saturday
(and we don't believe it), it is reason
able to suppose that the republicans
voted with the so-called sound money
men, while the populists may have
voted with the silver men. There
being more republicans around here
than populists, it is reasonable to
believe that even under these condi-
tions the undemocratic vote was with
the Cleveland men.
