The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces OF
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in de-
ing it's work. The proprietors have
so much faith in it's curative powers,
that they offer One Hundred Dollars for
any case that it fails to cure. Send

Editor Representatives:
In the Representative of June I'd we
read Justice Clark's address to the
people of the United States, and his
theme, The Danger of Our Republic"
Is significant, and ought to be read to
be appreciated, by every man that has
the welfare of the coutry at heart.
The increasing interest manifested
by the people of the republic on the
subject treated by Justice Clark and the
apparent necessity for more COM
prehensive study Of the same, has set
tied on the public mind, and will ma
ture in time to avert repetition of a
struggle like the one passed through in
1861 to 1865.
His question is where shall the ac-
tual governing power reside? Shall it
be men or money? Justice Clark. like
many other great men, unconsciously
perhaps points to the Omaha platform,
the new declaration Of Independence,
and advances step nearer, looking 1t
over as it were, and goes to work to
define it's principles, and confirms its
position, and in its finds an answer
to his own question.
The Populists have taken noble
stand for a righteous cause, and 1t
has given it's members courage 20 stand
firm as rock to what they believe is
right. They are guarding their prin-
ciples, which are the very essence OF
God given right, for the people to rule.
The Peoples party and the Omaha
platform are inseparable We should
not remove a plank from it, no. erase a
principle from its declaration.
1t has been the pillar of fire, in
whose light the Peoples party have ad
vanced rapidly to the front, to lead tho
people in settling the most important
question now before the American peO-
pie. q question that is of vital import
ance 10 the toiling millions Of the
republic. Now we perish by what is
awful. but is it right?
