WEAK KIDNEYS MAKE WEAK
BODIES.
Kidney Diseases Cause Half the Com
mon Aches and Ills Of Durango
People.

As one weak link weakens chain.
so weak kidneys weaken the whole
body and hasten the final breaking
down.
Overwork, strains, colds and other
causes injure the kidneys, and when
their activity is lessened the whole
body suffers from the excess of uric
poison circulated in the blood.
Aches and pains and languor and
urinary ills come, and there is an
ever-increasing tendency towards dia-
Detes and fatal Bright's disease.
There is no real help for the suffer.
er except kidney help.

the kidneys and cure every kidney

ALLEGED DENVER cRookeoNEss

The Post, Times and News are to
the front with charges OF gross fraud
in matter of issuance OF tax receipts
enabling 1000 people to vote on the
franchise proposition who are not
bona fide taxpayers. II this is true
the guilty should be punished. The
Herald believes in fair play and VIII
not stand for corruption of the ballot
no matter by whom committed. But
there is a good deal to be taken In
consideration in regard to tho
charges. II Is a well known fact that
the papers referred to will not tell
the truth when the truth Will serve
the purpose best. This has been the
record OF all the yellows. especially
of the News-Times combination.
Therefore, 1t Is not a sure thing that
the wholesale corruption complained
of took place. However. investiga-
ton will do no harm. And In this
connection the supreme court should
not interfere In probing the matter
Let justice prevail. If the bona fide
taxpayers of Denver are TO be
thwarted in their wishes by lot oil
mongrels who are willing to become
the diipes of corporations and others
engaged in the work of nullifying the
will of the people, then 1t Is time to
call halt. Again. If the law per
mits. the issuance of tax receipts upon
the payment of 10 and 20 cents upon
fictitious property ii is lame. No one
should be allowed to vote whose name
is not. on the assessors rolls or
shown TO be a taxpayer through com

with registration OF about $4,000
All the recent city election but 81 1000
votes were polled with house to

From these figures an idea may be
gained of the correctness of the
claims of the Republican leaders as
to the enormous frauds committed by
the Big Mitt in the Adams-P Peabody

local interest In the recent election,
Denver could not come within 10000
