Chronic Nasal Catarrh.

MIR. OSCAR THOMPSON, Toronto, S. D.
 I was afflicted for several years with that dreadful disease known as chronic catartll of the head and nose. After trying various catar1f cures without getting any relief, began to take Pe-ru-na with immediate good results. I had severe pains in my head and nose; could not be free of constant desire to clear the throat of mucous and my nose was entirely stopped up. I was getting very weak and low spirited. After taking course of Peru ma I feel better thar have for five years, and have no symptoms of my former trou- bles remaining I ann quite able to do my usual work without fatigue. I have every reason to believe that my excellent health at present is the direct result of taking Pe-1u-na, without which I should have been dead by this time, without doubt.

usual custom II selecting the congress

We are now told by the Popocratic
press with cheerful efrontery that the
joint fusion platform does not indorse
the single tax. that it has simply de-
cIared the right Of the people to vote
on d proposed amendment 10 the state
constitution, and that IL has in no way
committed the fusion parties 20 indorse-
men, Of the proposition on its merits
All this Is merely begging the ques-
ton. II is technical and highly
strained Interpretation Of the known
purposes and meaning Of the single-tax
plank. I, Is, and IL was meant 10 be,
a distinct Endorsement of the move
ment. an unequivocal recognition Of the
irnportunate claims Of It's supporters,
and an avowed championship Of the
whole agitation The initiative was
with the singie-tax advocates. the plank
was written by one Of them, and Its ac-
ceptance was and is regarded by them
as the first gTea: important step toward
tic doctrine By the people OF Washing
ton. The Democrats and Silver Repub-
deans have publicly Joined hands with
the Populists In forwarding this So
called reform. and they cannot escape
the consequences OF their action.
What is the genesis Of this singie-tax
plank? Why was IL inserted in the
platform? Was 1t in willing and I'M
qualified Endorsement Of the principle
that the people have a right 10 say for
themselves whether a certain change
shall be made In the states organic
law? or was II in partial considera-
ton OF the concession 70 the Democrats
OF a specific piece Of political booty?
BY now claiming that citizens have d
right 10 vote on this question without
handicap or interference from any po-
liticai party. the Democrats simply ad-
yertise their previous pointed refusal
TO grant this so-cailed privilege unless
they were paid their price. That IS to
say. they proposed u 60 their duty only
when there was enough in ii for taem.
The bargain was made and II was rat

>ulists the coveted siDgle-lax plank. Il
