The Philosophy of Freedom
PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRACY.
An Open Forum for Single Takers

PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRACY.
Editor Independent: How far can
democrats go towards socialism? Re-
formers must unite before they can
either enact just or repeal unjust
laws; ana we can only unite to work
for the reforms that we all believe in;
and that are tho most popular. Those
who believe in reforms that are not
popular, should continue their work
of propaganda; but they should not
try to force unpopular ideas into The
platform of reform party.
Even socialists and single takers
can work together for a long time On
these lines, for there are several re-
forms advocated by socialists that are
democratic; and perhaps by the time
we arrive at what now appears to be
the parting of the way. we will find
that there Is a road we can travel to-
geLher still farther. Socialists advo-
cate some measures thai are contrary
to democratic principles, and OF
course democrats cannot help them to
carry those measures; but evolution is
at work In democracy as elsewhere:
and although principles are eternal,
better ways are continually being dis
covered for carrying them out.
Socialists have high ideals, but they
don't see how some of them can be
realized without interfering with the
liberty Of individuals, and democrats
arc not likely to consent to any meas
ures that will interfere with what
they consider the natural AMI inalien-
able rights Of man. but 1t is possible
that democracy may find ways of
reaching the highest ideals of the So
cialist without interfering with those
rights.
IL is the duty of a democratic gov
eminent to carry out the will of the
majority; but the majority must re-
spect the rights of individuals. Indi-
vldIals have right to the products of
their own labor, and a right to. en-
gage In production in any way they
please that does not interfere with the
equal rights Of others; they may eth
err labor Independently, or cooperate,
and when majority decides hat the
government should engage in proiuc-
ton, why not?
II Is not necessary to tax all the
people to carry on the government
industries, and 1t is not necessary to
interfere with the rights OF those who
prefer to carry on business in their
own way.

These remedies are combined in
lozenge form, pleasant to take, and
will preserve their good qualities in-
definitely, whereas all liquid medi-
cines rapidly lose whatever good quail
tiles they may have had as soon as
uncorked and exposed to the air.
This preparation is called Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, and it is claimed
that one of these Tablets or lozeHges
will digest from 800 to 1900 times it's
own weight In meat, eggs and other
wholesome food. And this claim has
been proven by actual experiments in
the -ollowing manner. a hard-bolled
egg cut into small pieces was placed
in a bottle containing WARM water
heated to ninety-eight degrees tor
blood heat; one of these Tablets was
then placed in the bottle and the pro-
per temperature maintained for three
hours and half, at the end of which
tlme the egg was as completely di-
gested as 1t would have been in
healthy stomach. This experiment.
was undertaken to demonstrate that
what it would do in the bottle II
would also do in the stomach, hence
Its unquestionable value in the cure
OF dyspepsia and weak digestion. Verv
lew people are free from some fern of
Indigestion, but scarcely two VIII have
the same symptoms. Some will sufTer
