Inside Nerves

Sickness loses halt its terrors when We strip
medicine OF its MYSTERY. For most all forms
OF sickness start in the same way. The nerves
are weak. Not the nerves that govern your
movements and your thoughts.
But the nerves that, unguided and unknown
night ana day. keep your heart in motion-con
troll your digestive apparatus regulate your
liver-operate your kidneys.
These are the nerves that wear out and break
down.
1t does no good to treat the ailing organ-the
IRREGULAR heart-the disordered liver-the rebel
lious s.omach-the deranged kidneys. They are
not to blame. But go back 10 the nerves that
control them. There you will find the seat OF
the trouble.
There is nothing new about this-nothing any
physician would dispute. But 1t remained tor
DR.. Shoop to apply this knowledge--to put 1t to
practical use. DR.. Shops Restorative Is the
result of a quarter century of endeavor along
this very line. 1t does not dose the organ or
deaien the pain-but 1t does go at once to the
nerve--the inside nerve the power nerve-and

Let Them Stsy There

Editor Independent: see in the
Independent of November 10 you ask
for a referendum vote of the subscrib-
ers in regard to fusion with the Bry-
an democrats. We have no way of
judging of the future but by the past,
the peoples party fused with the Bryan
democrats and we all know the result.
They are not to be trusted. If party
fools us once they are to blame, but
If they fool us twice we can blame our
selves. If Mr.. Bryan and his followers
must stay in the democratic party, let
them stay there. If they can not come
to us and adopt our platform and name
we can not go to them. Bryan. as
leader in the party, has proved fail
ure. So think we had better let him
alone as long as he remains where he
is, he can not do us any harm. 1t will
take us some years yet to get back to
where we were before fusion. I al
ways will be opposed to fusion with
any party. If the peoples party can
not get along without fusion, I 90 to
the socialists.

Results Of Referendum Vote
The r Referendum

Editor Independent: I see by your
paper that you are submitting to your
readers a referendum for or against
fusion.
Permit me to say few words as to
what | consider a real referendum
There may be number of ways of
dealing with subject under discus
sion and the ordinary referendum per-
lmits us to say yes or not on a given
qeustion, but suppose voter does not
agree with either side of the question,
but believes he has a decidedly better
idea as to how the matter should be
dealt with. He has an undoubted
right to express his opinion, but the
present referendum will not permit
him. In order that a majority of the
voters may get as near to what they
want, through free choice, as pos
sible, suppose that referendum is
made up as follows:
For absolute refusal of fusion
with all parties.
For refusal to fuse except with
free coinage democrats and silver
republicans
For avoiding fusion except with
free coinage democrats, silver re-
publicans and republicans of the
LaFollette stamp.
For avoiding fusion except with
free coinage democrats, silver and
LaFollette republicans and prohi-
bitiOnistS.
For fusion with silver democrats,
silver republicans. La Toilette re-
publicans, Folk democrats, single
takers and prohibitionists, but alb
solutely opposed to fusion with
strict Dartisans Of the two old par
ties.

OF the proposition which best suits
him, CD at the proposition which is
next nearest his choice. 60 next, etc.,
when those ballots are collected by you

ing least first choice votes. next the

Editor Independent: Fuse or not to
fuse seems to be-a qeustion with some,
but / can not see any room for any
difference on that subject The follow
ing taken from the editorial columns
OF the st. Louis Republic of March,
1896, ought to help us all to satisfac-
torily settle that matter forever: "The
silver leaders in the democratic party
propose to wipe the peoples party off
the map this fall, whether right or
wrong in these surmises they intend to
carry out the campaign on these lines.
am firmly convinced hat Mr.. Bryan
was in ON the ground floor, with the
silver leaders, to betray and destroy
the peoples party, and most emphati-
cally vote no more fusion forever.
BY the action Of those silver leaders
the great giant Of reform was shorn
Of his strength for many weary years,
and the beneficiaries of special priyi-
lege were given a new life to plumber
the weak and helpless. The two old
parties are carrion parties and each
lives on the corruption of the other,
kill one and you kill both Missouri
did not go republican because there was
any virtue, or merit, in the republican
party, but because the stencil from the
putrid carcass of the democratic party
had become unbearable, and Roosevelt
did not get his majority in the nation
because his party had any merit, but
because the stencil from the last Cleve-
land administration killed the sensitive
voter off when he came into contact
with Parker and his environments car
rying as it must the malodorous smell
Of the last democratic administration.
/ can not believe that any man that
went into that conspiracy in 1896 to
wipe the peoples party off the map
that fall was an honest man and be-
lieve that Mr.. Bryan was in on the
ground floor of that conspiracy to de-
stroy the only party that was then
menacing the citadel of plutocracy.
The conspiracy was formed, the plan
carried out and the crime of the age
was committed by those silver leaders.
Let lis raise our banner high and let
Ii be known by deeds that we will not |
under any circumstances or conditions,
in any place or places, condone the
wrongs of either of the old parties by
fusing or cooperating with them, but |
will welcome all to our ranks who will
help us in our fight. For any northern |
section to fuse with the democrats is
demoralizing to all southern sections
where we have to submit to the crimes
OF the democratic party. and for the |
peoples party to fuse with the repub- /
licans in any southern section, is de- |
structive to our party in northern Sec
tions, besides fusing with either gives
the lie to our contention that both are |
wrong. Let us stand true to ourselves
and we can stand true to all. Let us |
organize under the precinct plan and
give all power into the keeping of the
people. Clip the wings of committees
to make deals and sell out the move
ment and our course will be onward
and upward.

Afraid of Populists

just at present the great dailies and
the Associated Press are engaged in
boosting the socialists. Every item of
information that will accelerate that
movement is given prominence while
everything connected with the peoples
party or the vote for Tom Watson is
suppressed. They know that they have
nothing to fear from the socialists. No
information at all is attainable by this
office concerning the total vote of the
peoples party. A great many letters
like the following have been received.
but these United States cover a vast
part of the globe, and no conclusion
can be formed of the total vote from
letters that have been received al
though they are very numerous. Most
OF the writer's got their information in
the same manner that Mr. Nichols did:
