Catarrh is systemic disease durable
only by systemic treatment. A remedy
that cures catarrh must aim directly at
the depressed nerve centers. This II
whist Peruna does.
Peruna immediately invigorates the
nerve centers which give vitality to the
mucous membranes. Then catarrh dis
appears. Then catarah is permanently
cured.
Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found per-
manent use in so many homes is that 1t
contains no narcotic Of any kind. Pc
runa is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length Of time without acquir-
ing O drug habit. Peruna docs not pro-
duce temporary results. tits permanent
in its effect.
1t has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh BY re-
moving the cause Of catarrh. There are
a multitude of homes where Peruna has
been used off and on for twenty years.

Topeka. Kan, Feb. 1.-The senate
went into committee OF the whole this
morning for the discussion Of four
drastic bills, designed to curb the pow
er of the Standard Oil company in
Kansas. The bills are: Providing for
the construction of penitentiary' in
the oil fields for refining oil with con-
vict labor; fixing maximum freight
rates on oil; forbidding discrimination
in the price of refined oil for the bene-
fit of one town over another; stopping
cut throat competition, from which in
dependent refineries suffer. The adj
yocates of the bills believe their pas
sage would free the state from control
of the Standard Gil company.
The people of the state of Kansas
seem determined to protect themselves
from the rapacity of the Standard Oil
company that has been holding them
UP on both ends of the oil question by
low prices for crude oil and high prices
for the refined article. That state has
successfully fought the Irvine trust by
manufacturing at its penitentiary
enough binding Irvine to supply the
demand of its farmers at one-haif the
trust price and at profit OF many
thousands of dollars for manufactur-
ing it.

by the state at Peru, aided by the pro.
posed legislation mentioned in the

A Democratic Party Dead

The New Era Magazine, in discussing
the present political situation, says:
"The presidential canvass OF 1904
made clear a number of very sign1fi-
cant facts that will have to be recog-
nized and dealt with in the immediate
future.
.First-The democratic party, as a
potent factor in the nations political
organism, no longer exists. The doc
trines and traditions of that once pow
erful body have evidently ceased to in
terest a majority OF the people. The
last three presidential elections have
proved this. Struggling in the face OF
fate to regain it's old-time supremacy,
it was shown under Bryan that the
party could not get the conservatives
to follow radical leader to victory.
lit was proved under Parker that It
could not get its radicals to follow Q
conservative leader to victory. What
valid reason then has the democratic
party for existence? The word demo-
lcratic'' may survive the presidential
event of 1904, but, so far as human
teyes can see, tt would be the sheerest
folly to ever attempt to combine again,
under the word democratic" the ir-
|reconcilable elements of which the
party has been composed for at least
ten years"
/ In the same issue DR.. Parkhurst
says: Our government depends fol-
stability on the balance Of parties
each checks the other. All know nov
that the democratic party is not |
check for anything. Some Of its mos
lardent members even have been writ
ling its obituary. That situation is BAT
for all.
Tom Watson's opinion on that sub
ject was as follows: II have no faitl
whatever that reforms will be accom-
piished by the democratic party. 1t Il
discredited in the eyes of the people By
a series of crushing defeats, but it hal
been so vacillating in It's course, 1t ha'
|changed its principles so often. ha:
lrun from one extreme to another 81

recently, had such a magnificent oppor-
tunity in 1892 to work out the reforms
to which 1t stood pledged, and made
such a wretched use Of that opportun-
ity that it can not inspire the conf
dence which leads to success. In ma
tional politics the democratic party
stands without declaration of prin-
ciples, or an accepted leader. 1t is
utterly bankrupt in reputation"

The Independent regards this stock
as Offering IS safe speculative invest
ment as any that can be made in that
class of investments. With oil wells
almost surrounding this tract of land
it would seem certain that well sunk
to the proper depth would strike the
same oil lake and be a great producer.
However, in commencing this stock
as a speculative investment to those
of its readers who are looking for
something of the kline The Independent
can not guarantee a producing Oil
well. 1t will guarantee that the money
received from the sale of the stock will
be honestly AM judiciously expended
for drilling the well and for the pro-
duction of oil il it is under the land
described. The speculator who asks a
greater guarantee will usually fall into
the hands of some fake promoter who
will promise anything necessary to
make the sale and then disappear from
sight forever.

cally expended to that end. Every
stakeholder will share alike according

PRESIDENT wINcHELL

Representing the Rock Island
President Winchell brings com
parative youth to any gathering Of
transportation executives. But his
youth does not stand for inexper-
ience. Few men in business life
haye had more active career than
Mr.. Winchell. The head, al 46, of
what is perhaps the largest system
of railroads in the world, Mr.. Win
chell presents a second unusual
feature in his progress to SO par
ticular honors. He is the sole in
stance among our railway presi-
dents, of the first class, of one who
has risen thaough the passenger
department. What is remarkable
in Mr.. Winchell is something that
is aptly phrased but not always
comprehended in its significance,
namely, breadth -of view The
Rock Island president sees more in
a situation than the average man
sees, and sees further into it. The
successes in life have been won by
foresight and insight. These
traits mark the unusual man and
they help to explain Mr.. Winchell.
No one that has listened to a view
from him on the possibilities of a
new traffic development in field
supposed to be familiar-for the
ranks as a traffic man with Darius
Miller and Paul Morton-or to his
ideas as to thestrategic advantages
