hut saved BY DOOd's Kidney Pills.
After all Means had Failed.

DETROIT, MICH, Oct 3.-Nr. James
Paisley, of Magnolia avenue, one Of our
most reputable citizens, is a happy man.
Things have changed in his life lately.
He is a robust, healthy man to-day. Re-
Gently, he was broken down, a physical
wreck.
Read what he says about it. "For two
years | vas at deaths door, brought
there by Bright's Disease. Doctoas gave
up trying to cure me. Medicines did
me no good. Pain and misery was my
daily and nightly portion.
"A friend persuaded me to try Dodd's
Kidney Pills. The first few doses gave
me heavenly relief. Each succeeding
dose made me better. Two boxes cured
me-made me a new man."
What Dodd's Kidney Pills, did for Mr..
Paisley, they will do for every other
victim OF Brlghts Disease. There is no
doubt, no uncertainty about their effect
They cure every time. II you don't

People Party Platform

Following is the platform adopted by
the Peoples Party convention Of South
Dakota, at Aberdeen, June -, 1898:
The Peoples Party OF South Dakota
triumphantly reatiirms its allegiance to
the fundamental principles enunciated
in the Omaha and St. Louis platforms
We distinctly reatfirm our position ir
favor of the free and unlimited coinage
OF silver at the ratio OF 16 to l and oul
unalterable opposition to the issue oil
interest bearing bonds in time OF peace
or war.
We are opposed to banks of issue and
In favor Of the issue OF all money direct
by the government.
We demand the passage OF the free
homes bill and condemn the opposition
is that measure by the national Repub-
llcan managers. and their failure to re-
deem this pledge in the st. Louis plat.
form. We approve O the war now being
waged il behalf Of the oppressed people
OF Cuba and the Philippines and demand
its energetic prosecution and that it by
terminated as quickly as possible after
the purpose for which it was inaugur-
ated shall have been accomplished.
We denounce the infamous policy Of
government by injunction fostered by
the federal courts and we demand the
election Of such courts by the direct vote
Of the people for a stated term.
We regard the life terms system in our
federal judiciary as subversive of liberty
and we demand the election OF members
OF the United States supreme court for
stated terms by direct vote OF the peo-
pile.
State Issues. No people can be
free who are denied the right to vote yes
and no on every law to which they are
subject and we therefore favor the init
alive and referendum as the only meas
ure by which majority rule can be &C.
cured.
2. We are firmly committed to the
public ownership OF natural monopolies
ard we favor an amendment to the COD
stltutlon permitting the state to engage
in public works.
3. We favor the repeal Of the go
called fellow servant statute and the en-
sctment OF Legislation making employers
liable for injuries received by their EN-
ployes while in tie discharge OF their
Immediate duty, when injuries received
are directly traceable to the negligence
OF employers or fellow servants.
4. We believe in fostering the insti-
tutions OF the state and insist that
county and state supplies should be
purchased from home producers.
