While a resident Of Washington, D.
c.. I suffered continually and intensely
with a bronchial trouble that was sim
ply terrible tc. endure I would have
spells that ] could hardly breathe,
would choke up, fill up in my throat and
bronchial tubes, and the doctoring that
did and the remedies used were Of no
benefit to me whatever. The doCtogs
said that I would soon have consump-
ton, and the outlook was anything but
encouraging. / heard about Booths
HyOmei being so beneficial in catarrhal
and bronchial affections and procured an
oUtft, and am pleased TO say that ] re-
ceived relief from the first by it's use,
and ] continued with IL and received a
cure. 1t is about two years since / have
suffered at all from my former trouble.
There is nothing too good or strong
enough for me TO say regarding HyO-

as it now is in meats
Cannot Combine.
1.-THE farmer can't combine; there are
too many of him, and his circumstances
don't lend themselves to combination.
He is getting more for his stock than
formerly. But can recollect when
beef cattle were worth about 81 per
hundred, some twenty-five years ago,
and you could buy the best cuts AOr
Is and II cents the pound at retail now
they cost twice that, or more. Eight
dollar hogs are not responsible Tor o.
cent bacon; not by any manner OF
means. The influences that come be-
tween the farmer and the hnal con-
sumer are responsible for that, and by
far the chief of these is the combina-
ton Of the packers and the ralroads.
But don't want to be understood as
attributing all the increased cost OF
living TO these things. The whole ma
ton is living eXtravagantly. / know a
man who sold his home IN order 70 buy
an automobile.
THE tariff has contributed it's very
I important part to some Of the increases
in prices. and I fully agree with Senator
Clapp, when he says that If the tariff
had been reduced, as was the promise
of the Republican party, instead Of in
creased. IT would have served as a
check.

been reduced. Sugar ought TO be much
cheaper than it is.
Legislative Remedies.
CAS- TO legislative remedies. we must
have legislation 10 prevent develop
ment and maintenance Of monopolies.
The legislative branch must be given
power and the responsibility to correct
these evils. In the matter Of railroad
rates. we should provide that no rate
may be changed Eli aftCr the change
has been approved by ire Interstate
Commerce Commission. The proposed
administration bill would give power TO
suspend a rate, in the judgment Of the
commission, pending investigation.
That Is very different, and does not go
far enough.
In connection with the matter q
the cost of commodities I'm different
