THE FARMER-LABOR PARTY.

The FarmerLabor Party is the name of the new poit-
ca organization which has emerged from the strife and
confusion of convention of numerous minor political
groups held at Chicago These groups composed of
men and who had become dissatisfied with both of
the major parties and with the government When they
gathered Chicago they discovered that they were not
in agreement with each other several questions and
there followed four days of turmoil with threats by this
and that and the other group to bolt.
Many delegates did bolt and dispatches are not quite
clear to whether the Committee of as an
organization will give its support to the new party It
appears that the Labor Party held the whip hand from
the first and with the help Of the farmer group pract
cally controlled the convention What became of tn
Single Takers not stated but they may have consente,
to be swallowed
The Platform adopted contains many commendable
panks, but the whole it is distinctly radical. There
some questions, such suppression of child labor
and reduction Of the cost of living which the views
the great majority of the people in accord But it
is only small minority that believe in abuse of free
speech to the point of sedtion in amnesty for disoya
lists who are in prison; in repeal of laws which
able the country to protect itself against aliens and the
aen-hearted; in withdrawal of the United States from
participation in the work of enforcing the terms of peace
on Germany in recognition of the so-caed Republic of
Ireland and the Russian Soviet government in public
ownership of all public utilities and natural resources;
in other radical propositions contained in the platform
of the Farmer-Labor Party.
On this platform the party nominated Farley Parker
Christensen, City Attorney Of Salt Lake City, and Max
S. Hayes labor leader of Cleveland as it's candidates
for President and VcePresident respectively The NOM
nation of Christensen Chairman of the Convention of
the Committee of Forty-eght was concession to that
group, which dissatisfied with the platform But it
that the Committee decided to retain its existence
political organization without national ticket which
means that the greater part of that group may not fill
tie with the party.
There other organizations represented at the fusion
convention which will not give the party full sup
port The platfosm adopted will appeal in of its
parts certain classes while in other parts it will repel
many of the classes. That the parry will develop
formidable strength is hardly possible.

Not a Bite of
Breakfast Until
You Drink Water
Says ? glass of hot water and
phosphate prevents illness
and keeps US fit.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves
behind ineombustible ashes, so the
food and drink taken day after day
leaves in the alimentary canal indiges-
tible material, which if not completely
eliminated from the system each day,
becomes food for the millions of bac-
teria which infect the bowels. From
this mass of leftover waste, toxins
and ptomainelike poisons are formed
and sucked into the blood.
Men and women who can't get feel
ing right must begin to take inside
baths. Before breakfast each morn
ing drink a glass Of hot water with
teaspoonfuI of limestone phosphate
in IL TO wash out Of the bowels the
preyious days poisons and toxins, and
to keep the entire alimentary canal
clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to sick head
ache. colds, biliousness, constipation
others who wake up with bad taste,
fouJd breath, backache. rheumatic
stiffness or have a sour gassy stomach
after meals. are urged to get quarter
pound of limestone phosphate from
the drug store. and begin practicing
internal sanitation. This will cost
very little. brt is sufficient to make
anyone an enthusiast on the subject
