Strange as Fiction
Newspaper for Kidney and
Rheumatic Sufferers.

In Germany there is newspaper
published in the interests of all rheu-
matte sufferers, and each week sym
toms and treatments are discussed
by both laity and medical men. One
scientific contributor related that a
formula originated especially to relieve
kidney diseases. had almost phe-
nomenal virtue in the treatment of all
forms of rheumatism.
It's action is to favor the kidney Sc
cretions and stimulate their filtering
capacity, so that the poisons and acids
which cause rheumatism are elimi-
mated. No secret is made of this
formula, which is composed of one
half ounce fluid extract Buchu, one
ounce compound fluid Balmwort and
two ounces compound syrup Sarsa-
parilla, mixed in bottle, and to be
taken in teasDoonful doses after eacn
meal and one at retiring.
A local druggist states that any
honest pharmacist can fill the pre-
scription, and expressed the opinion
that every rheumatic and kidney suf-
ferer will be grateful for this item.

an unidentified fugitive almost severed
his head from his body with a razor
rather than face the vengeance of his
pursuers. He had been traced to the
cellar after he had lured a boy five

dead an hour before it was learned
that he had cut his throat. Covering

LEADING GERMAN-AMERICANF FINDS
BRYAN SENTIMENT SWEEPING WEST
Tells Why Democratic Party
Should Be Empowered
to Revise the Tariff.

a maneuver to fool the people into re-
turning them TO power for four years
more. Then tariff revision will be post
poned for another four years. and
when the next election comes around
the same promise will be made again
in the hope that they can postpone this
tariff revision forever.
The Republicans are allied with the
trusts. Mr.. Hartman and the South
ern Pacific road control the Republican
party in California. They arc all part
ners in the effort to elect Taft and a
Republican congress.
THE Republican party must not only
be judged by its past performances on
the tariff matter, but il must ~,
judged also by the company it keeps.
A survey of the situation must prove
to every thinking man that Taft is the
candidate of the high tariff protection
lists and of the men who control the
trusts. AS the tariff and the trusts are
twin evils. correlated and inter-de-
pendent. Taft's election means con-
tinuation and perpetuation of the pres
ent unbearable condition of the wage
careers and the salaried class. All the
profit of labor. through the workings
of the high tariff go to the trusts. MAX
ing the trust magnates richer while the
workers grow poorer. If bad times
come, the labOring class is the first to
suffer, but all benefit of good times
goes TO the millionaire class In control
of the trusts. who, by the high tariff
process. squeeze out every dollar OF
profit for their personal benefit.
THE Democratic party is pledged to
tariff reform 1t is the only party
which sincerely and honestly proposes
to revise the tariff in the interest of
the common people. And the people
are beginning to realize that their in
torests are not to be conserved by a
policy of protection for the trusts.
THE entire outlook for Bryan is
very favorable and is improving every
day. The Independent element holds
the balance of power in this campaign,
and l believe the independent element
in the state of New York will throw
thirty-nine electoral votes to the DEM
ocratic candidate"

BY Jan. it is expected that all of the
poles will be out of the center of the
street. The Utah Light & Railway COM

Herman Ridder Says All But
Hideb0und Partisans Are
Falling Into Line.

Herman Ridder. publisher of the
New York Staats-Zeitung. the great
est of German newspapers in America
and president of the American News
paper Publishers association, was in
the city yesterday with Mrs. Ridder
and family party of nine en- route to
the Yellowstone. Mr.. Rider is distin-
suished for good many things. He is
leader of COMMUNICATIONS and
SUN about the most ardent American
imaginable; he is potent factor i'm ma
uonal politics and yet as independent
as the traditional pork on ice.
As the president of an association
which includes nearly every large
newspaper in America, Mr. Ridder LED
the fight of the publishers against the
paper trust and carried il into congress
last winter with such energy that Un-
Gle Joseph Cannon had to appoint a
special committee to smother the agi-
tation for the removal of the tariff on
wood pulp and paper. 1t is recorded
also that Mr.. Ridder and his able CO.
laborer. John Norris. secured the pros
ecutlon of members of a branch of the
paper trust and forced them to plead
guilty and pay fines after the Mann
congressional committee had declared
II could find no evidence of the exist
ence of a trust.
Although he was in the city only a
short time between trains, Mr.. Ridder
found time to look around and say
some extremely pleasant things about
the beauty of Salt Lake.
In response to a request for an inter
view, Mr.. Ridder said:
THE sentiment on the Pacific coast
and throughout the far west is very
strongly for Bryan. as l have learned
from personal contact with the people
on this side of the continent. My adj
vices from the east are all very favor
able to Mr.. Bryan, and this applies
especially in the state of New York.
Mr.. Bryan, by his conservative and
convincing speeches. is gaining the
confidence of all those who are not
hidebound Republicans favoring high
tariff
