No trouble ID more common or more

nerves are to blame and. are surpris-
ed that they are not cured by nerve
medicine and spring remedies; the
real seat Of the mischief is lost

gan to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not
have any poin whatever in the stom-
ach, nor perhaps any of the usual
symptoms of stomach weakness. Ner-
vous dyspepsia shows itself not in
the stomach so much as in nearly
every other organ; in some cases the
heart palpitates and is irregular; in
others the kidneys are affected; in
others the bowels are constipated,
with headaches; still others are
troubled with loss of flesh and appe-
tlte, with accumulation of gas, sour
risings and heartburn.

Editor Representative: = Socrates
said, Even the gods themselves are
powerless in the presence of ignor-
ance." But misinformation is the worst
form of ignorance. It makes a man
wise in his own conceit, which closes
the avenue to his reason. This fact
lends gravity to the transformation
found for many years past in the re-
ports of the Treasury department at
Washington. Unfortunately business
men never scrutinize these reports or
try to verify the figures. But as an
London banker has said, mint Report

right; otherwise these Treasury reports

The Chairman of the Peoples Con
gressiODal Committee of the Sixth
District Writes a WrinEinY Let
ter on Fusion.

Editor Representative:
A close analysis of the situation in
this district shows the controlling ele-
ment of the Populst Party to be in
favor preserving our identity and in
dependence as a party. This is the
sentiment of the city, county and con-
gressional committees. The only way
fusion can ever be brought about again
is that which gives the Populists the
throttle bar. Mr. Populist will be en-
gineer hereafter and let Messrs. Silver
Republican and Democrat shovel coal
and attend to the brakes. II they want
to pull with us that way all right, il not,
they can play in their own yard alone.
The very moment we give up our name
and fade into q free silver amalgam,
then the corruptionist will get in his
work.. So long as we preserve our
identity, both the Silver Republican
and Democratic party will be good. We
taught them all the good things they
know, but they have much to learn yet.
Should we consent to be swallowed up
and made a meal of, they might forget
some valuable lessons. So long as they
are good, docile pupils we should be
kind to them. But we are not ready to
give up the school nor issue them any
diplomas yet. They have not even

OUR FORUM.
FROM THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS.

Voice Comes In Favor of tho
Omaha Platform Pure and Simple.
GRANTSDALE, Mont, June ID 1897.
Hon. Ignatius Donnelly:
l would like to tell you how your in
fluence has been felt and your work
admired in a mining camp on the crest
of the Rocky Mountains. When | get
time l will do so, as l am sure you will
be interested.
Now | write to urge you, at the Nash
vile conference, to do all you can to
but the Populist party squarely on the
Omaha platform, and to have that plat
form without change, adopted as the
national platform now on.
Do not let some good soul" add any
hearted good soul" take thing from
it.
Do not let any crafty one get in ''the
same principles" or something just
as good"
The Omaha platform if adopted
without change, VERBATIM EFT
LITERATIM, is the one thing that
will conquer fusion. Please urge it.
In The Representative so many
different writer's VINO are in favor of
the conference are also demanding the
Omaha platform, that you can see that
by that platform alone can a chord be
touched to find an echo in the hearts
of Populists
Because the Omaha platform was
modified at st. Louis, the socialist party
gained sufficient votes in California to
cause Bryan to lose that state last fall.
The Appeal to Reason gained over
six hundred new subscribers in one
week. This shows how the Socialist
party is gaining from the weakness and
uncertainty of the position of the
Populist platform and future course of
possible fusion.
Years ago l was Secretary of the
Board of Education for Washington
Territory, there was bitter opposition
to written examination of school teach
er, on the part, teachers, superin-
tendents, etc. l selected for questions,
ed, questions from the books used in
the schools. That killed all opposition.
1t is little so in this matter If the
Omaha platform is adopted the man
who stands by it is a Populist and the
man who rejects it is NOT Populist.
| know the meeting is a conference
but it will probably shape the course
of the next convention

No Fusion.

Am l fusionist? NO, hundred
times no! My first vote was cast for
Abraham Lincoln in 1860 on the
straight Republican ticket, for a
straightforward, honest statesman for
President, but after defeated democracy
had killed this noble man and corporate
greed and corporate money got control
of both the old parties I favored politi-
cal reform, and in 1892, signed the call
for the Omaha convention, Endorsed the
Omaha platform, have ever since
preached it's principles, and denounced
fusion, which has carried only ruin in
it's track Fusion was denounced even
by the Almighty, when He told the
church of Lrodiceans that they must be
cold or hot, or he would spew them out
of his mouth and men that cannot bear
the brand of Populist, burned into them
by the red hot principles of righteous
ness enunciated in the Omaha plat
form. BY fusion we are pouring slop
of dissension into the Peoples party
ranks, from the stomachs Of sore-head
Republican and Democratic dema-
gogues, boodlers and Office seekers
But the dose we took in the last
campaign should cleanse our party
from the destructive elements of fusion
and leave us as a party of the people,
demanding unconditional surrender to
our principles of the two old govern
ment-wrecking, life destroying parties.
Let us have a new deal, with no fusion
lists at the head of the Peoples party.
Fling our banner to the breeze, with
Peoples party straight written all
over it, and then welcome to our ranks
patriots, not straddlers and pie-hunters,
and we will march on to victory, under
the stars and stripes, without gold or
silver attachments to fool the people.

Fusion Is Death to Reform Move.
Editor of the Representative:
In answer to your request for opinion
] will say that: Fusion is and has been
for several decades, in this country.
the means by which the pultocratic
power breaks up reform movements. No
sooner does reform idea crystalize in
to formidable political organization
than men are sent into it to administer
the disintergrating poison Of fusion. 1t
is at first sugar-cOated and masked I'M
der the name of political cooperation
or combination and in that guise is
swallowed whole by many good men
who do not know what they have taken
until the deadly work is done. Therefore
I am not only opposed to fusion, but am
emphatically opposed to any of our
Peoples party men suggesting or list
ening to suggestions that some way of
cooperation with other political parties
may be found. 1t is not possible for a
political party to exist in country un-
less it has distinct and opposing prin-
ciples to each and all older existing po-
litcal parties in that country. When
1t consents to join issues with any other
politica: party, it by that act surrenders
that principle which made it a distinct
party and becomes for the time being
part Of the party it agrees to cooperate
with. In the last national campaign
the Peoples party lowered it's national
standard and virtually became an ad-
junct Of the Democrtic party. It's &C
:ion was entirely one sided. The Dem
