Re evolution in italy

Revolution Is brewing in Italy. The re-
cent bread riots are believed to be simply
mutterings before the storm. The trouble
is the people are overtaxed. A great part
OF their earnings is taken by the govern
ment. AS times go by the crisis Of revolu-
tion approaches, and the end is likely to
be the same as In the American revolution.
Many men and women try to do too much
They overtax their systems as govern
ments overtax their subjects. Then comes
breakdown. The stomach, kidneys,
liver. blood and nerves are affected All
sorts of big names are given for these dis
eases, but the name amounts to nothing.
What Is required is a medicine like Hos
letters Stomach Bitters to drive out the
poisons, restore the strength and build up
new and healthy tissues. Any druggist
will supply it, and the sufferer will be as
tonIshed after taking 1t to see how quickly

standing the bad weather and still worse
roads, meetings by local speakers have
been fairly veil attended.
Hon. Nils P. Haugen's meeting on
Monday night brought out good at.
tendance, many coming in from the
country. HIS arguments were confined
largely to national issues, making plain
the necessity for supremacy of the re-
publican party. On state issues he
treated principally on tax questions.
maintaining that our system of taxing
corporations is not equitable to the
people. He said the republican party
was pledged to reformation and adjust
ment OF these and other important
matters of state. He urged republicans
to support their ticket.
Mr.. Haugen has many personal friends
here who were pleased to meet him. He
was the guest of General and Mrs.
Rogers while in the city.
The Haugen meeting at Westby,
Monday afternoon, was largely attended
considering the season. Hons. J. O..
Davidson and d. o. Mahoney spoke
briefly.
G. j. Smith spoke at De Soto, Satur-
day night. He was at Hillsboro, Mon
day, Ontario Tuesday, LaFarge Wednes
