It is natural to rub the spot that hurts, and when rheumatic
pains are shooting through the joints and muscles and they are
inhamed and sore, the sufferer is apt to turn to liniments and plasters
for relief; and while such treatment may quiet the pain temporarily,
no amount of rubbing or bistering can cure Rheumatism, because II
is not a skin disease, but is in the blood and all through the system,
and every time you r exposed to the same conditions that caused
the first attack, you are going to have another, and Rheumatism
will last Just as long as the poison is in the blood, no matter what
you apply externally. Too much acid in the blood is one cause OF

Full Text of Platform Adopt
ed. ETC.. Etc.
CONTINUED from last week.


This convention assembled at
Indianapolis, June 80 and 80, 1904.
The platform was agreed upon in
committee with practical unanimi-
ty and is as follows:
THE PLATFORM.
The Resolutions Committee re-
ported the following platform to
the convention, which was adopted:
"The Prohibition party, in ma
tional convention assembled at In
dianapolis, June 30, 1904, recog-
nizing that the chief end of all gov
eminent is the establishment OF
those principles Of righteousness
and justice that have been revealed
to man as the will of everything
God, and desiring His blessing up
on our national life, and believing
in the perpetuation of the high
ideals of government of the people,
by the people and for the people
established by our fathers, makes
the following declaration of prin-
ciples and purposes:
81. The widely prevailing sys-
TEN of the licensed and legalzed
sale of alcoholic beverages is so
ruinous to Individual interests, so
inimical to public welfare, so de-
structive to national wealth and so
subversive to the rights of the great
masses of our citizenship that the
destruction of the traffic is and for
years has been the most important
question in American politics.
"2. We denounce the lack of
craftsmanship exhibited by the
leaders of the Democratic and Re-
publican parties in their refusal to
recognize the paramount impor'
tance of this question and the cow
ardice with which the leaders of
these parties have courted the fav-
or of those whose selfish interests
are advanced by the continuation
and augmentation of the traffic, un'
til today the influence of the liquor
traffic practically dominates ma
tional, state and local government
, throughout the nation.
r DENoUNCEs LICENSE SYSTEM.
SO. We declare the truth, dem
onstrated by the experience of hal
a century, that all methods of deal
ing with the liquor traffic whicl
recognize its right TO exist in an.
= form, under any system of license
or tax, or regulation, have proved
+. powerlessS to remove its evils anC
useless as checks upon its growth
1 while the insignificant public rev
enues which have accrued there
from have scared the public con
science against recognition of it
i iniquity.
I. 81. We call public attention t
: the fact, proved by the experience
of more than 80 years, that to Sc
cure the enactment and enforce
ment Of prohibitory legislation, il
which alone lies hope of the pro
lection of the people from tn
i liquor traffic, it is necessary tina
the Legislative, executive and judi
cial branches of the Government
y should be in the hands of a politi
a cal party in harmony with the pro
y hibition principle and pledged t
d its embodiment in law and to tn
t execution of those laws.

SO. We declare that there is not
another issue of equal Importance
before the American people, but the
so-called issues upon which the
Democratic and Republican parties
seek to divide the electorate of the
country, are in large part subter-
fuges, under the cover of which
they wrangle for the spoils of Of
flee.
~. Recognizing that the intel

properly ask our attitude upon
other questions of public concern,
we declare ourselves in favor of:
"The impartial enforcement of
all law.
"The safe guarding of the peo-
pies rights by rigid application
