A Weak
Stomach

Indigestion Is often caused by over
eating. An eminent authority says
the harm done thus exceeds that from
the excessive use OF alcohol. Eat all
the good food you want but don't
load the stomach. A weak stomach
may refuse TO digest what you eat.
Then you need a good digestant like
Kodol, which digests your food with
out the stomach's aid. This rest and
the wholesome tonics Kodol contains
soon restore health. Dieting unneces-
sary. Kodol quickly relieves the feel
ing Of fulness and bloating from
which some people suffer after meals.
Absolutely cures indigestion.

FOR THE CITY BEAUTIFUL

WHAT MAY BE DONE BY LITTLE EFFORT
Concerted Action All that II Needed
to Achieve the that
Have been Accomplished
IN Other Cities.

At a recent meeting Of the Omaha Real
Estate exchange Judge w. W.. Slabaugh
gave an address Oh the "City Beautiful"
the text Of which follows:
The home reflects the sentiment Of the
family; the city that OF an aggregation
OF families; the state and nation that of
the people comprising them. Our laws
will never be in advance OF our people,
who, through our representatives, make
them. Our homes will never be more
beautiful and more inviting than those
who dwell in them desire them to be.
Our city. in appearance. will wear the
garb rejecting the enterprise, ambition
and taste Of our people. onicials and
organizations may cherish plans and work
hard TO certain ends. looking to the prog
ress and beauty OF a city. but it will all
come to naught II there is not a public
sentiment behind them. upholding their
hands and encouraging them in their
efforts. This laudable organization can
do but little unaided by those whom they,
from unselhsh- motives, are endeavorlng

aided and encouraged. No great move
ment for good ever finally succeeded with
out cooperation. without the impetus that
comes from public sentiment. It is like
the lever OF ArchImedes. Under proper
circumstances it can move the world II
resting on the fulerum OF q worthy OBJ
3ect or cause. Or, like a tidal wave. can
sweep all before it. And no city will
ever attain to the high standard to which
II should aspire unless Il blends the idea
Of the beautiful with business and good
morals.

The New York and New England
European correspondents Of the great
dailies seem to believe that the peo-
pie on this side Of the water have no
interest in anybody in Europe except
the few stupid and degenerate human
beings who have royal blood in their
veins, so they give us column on col
umn of stuff about kings, dukes and
princes, their wives, their cousins
and their aunts. Of the great sociol-
ogical movements, of education, of
science, they have nothing to say.
Perhaps it is because these correspon-
dents are of the monkey dinner kind
themselves and haven't brains enough
to write any other sort of stuff than
the trash that they send. Then it
may be that these correspondents are
sent over there for the express pur-
pose of writing such articles as New

False ON Its Face

Some days ago the State Journal
printed a plutocratlc boiler-plate
story about 10000 state railroad oper-
atives down in Victoria, Australia,
who have become so powerful that the
government is thinking seriously of
disfranchising the whole lot. 1t was
such clumsy lie that The Indepen-
dent at first thought of ignoring it.
But in a recent number of the Appeal
to Reason, Mr.. Wayland analyzes the
whole question so completely that The
Independent must reproduce part of
his comment. .~,
This has been printed in nearly
every daily and weekly paper sup
porting the capitalistic interests. 1t
emanates from the literary bureau es-
tablished and supported by the cor
porations to prejudice and mislead the
people concerning government own
ership of Industries, that the said cor
porations may continue to exploit the
people. 1t bears the stamp of false
hood on it's face; as | shall show you
by analysis. The railroad men did
not strike They did not need that
weapon. They fell back on their
power at the polls There is where
they were strong and where they
could control They did that AS the
men are admitted to be almost ire
sistible at the polls how could the
government disfranchise them without
their consent? Does it seem reason
able that men Who have votes and are
,ci hfr hnnnfit
vote to disfranchise themselves?
Can't you see the absurdity of the po-
sitiOn of the clumsy writer's for the
corporations? And on the other hand,
how can the officials dominate if the
men are all powerful at the polls?
And if the men are all powerful,
doesn't that infer majority? And
if a majority rules, does that show
signs of an extinction of representa-
tive government? All these articles
against public ownership are paid ar
ticles-paid out of the money extorted
from the public by corporations. Men
who will extort, bribe public officials,
keep system of false books to de-
ceive the public, will not hesitate to
lie to the public that their profits may
continue.
I get papers from Victoria and I
have yet to find single suggestion to
disfranchise the government employees.
Again, public ownership of rail-
roads is not socialism. Socialism is a
condition in which all the industries
are not only public property, but each
industry is governed by the workers
therein, and nothing is taken from
them for either interest, rent or profit
Such condition is not prevalent in
Victoria or anywhere else today"

Every time that a proposition is
made to lower the tariff on anything
the reply comes instantly: ut will
destroy that industry" In the eyes of
a protectionist, that is all that is nee
essary to be said: If the tariff were
taken off hides, no more shoes would
be mad in the United States. All
the factories would cloTe their doors
and the people would all go barefoot
ed. Oh! the horrors that would fol-

could not conceive them. This writer
has attended many sittings of the
house ways and means committee,
and he has never failed to hear a
tariff CRATER declare most solemnly
that if the import duties were not
fixed at the rate he demanded that
the industry would be destroyed" !"
That phrase is old and worn, but it
is coming into active use these days
again. At present it is applied to
the reciprocity treaty with Newfound-
land. If that treaty is ratified "the
fishing industry will be destroyed" >"

The British parliament does not
take to subsidies, especially ship sub
sides. special committee of the
house of commons has just made a
report on that subject in which it
says that Subsidies restrict free COM
petition and facilitate the establish
ment of federations and shipping rings
and that therefore a general system of
subSidies, except for services rend-
cred, and without government control
of the maximum rates on freights, is
costly and ineXpedent." The COM
mittee's plan to fight American ship
subsidies or those of any other ma
ton, is to pass laws reserving the
"coasting trade" of the British en-
pire to British ships, copying for that
purpose the laws of the United States
which prohibit foreign ships from en-
gaging in the shipping business be-
tween any two points on the Ameri-
can coasts. AS a law of that kind
would prevent any but British ships
from engaging in trade between Eng
