Mr. Iirvan said. In part:
"The democratic party is strong enough
in principles if it proves true to the
teachings of its great founder. It is the
illusion of the democratic party to crys-
tallize into legislation the principles
which he taught.
' rhe party applies democratic princi
ples to the issues which arise from time
to time. For many years the tariff
nuestioii was the paramount issue and
the party took a more advanced position
each year until 18'Jli when It declared
itself in favor of a policy which meant
substantially a tariff for revenue only.
Hut the president elected at that time.
instead of proceeding to carry out that
portion of the platform forced uiion the
public attention an issue which had up
to that time Isien considered secondary.
"Mr. Cleveland more than any other
one jK-rson in this nation is responsible
tor the prominent position wnicu money
now occupies. It was his determination
to complete the demonetization of silver
and make the gold standard perpetual
that aroused the musses of the United
States to active resistance. The struggle
for supremacy between the gold standard
and bimetallism wus recognized us a con
test between the money power and the
common people.
"The explicit declaration In favor of
free und unlimited coinage ut 10 to 1
without waiting for the uid or consent of
any other nation wus made necessary by
the attempt of certain public men to
evade preceding platforms. The party
struggle culminated in the platform of the
Chicago convention. The purty wus
placed in the position where it wus com-
pelled to endorse the-linunciul policy of
the president or ndopt the doctrines and
traditions of the purty. The position of
the democratic party in 18!HJ will not lie
surrendered. The jicrmuncncy of the
Chicago plattorm ns party creed among
the rank und lile of the purty is establish
ed. Measure t tic zeal and enthusiasm
which that platform has uroused. und
you will realize the impossibility of tuk
ng u Imckwurd step.
i rue the present administration in
seeking to turn public attention to the
tariff question but if our rea Honing is
well founded nn increase of tuxes can not
restore prosperity to the producers of
wealth. If the Dinglcy bill brings gener
al und iM-rmuiient prosperity the demo-
:-ratic purty will not be in a position to
win a contest ny opjiosmg it. It it lulls
to fulfill tlie claims of its advocates our

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A 11
eanant Simple bat Safe and Ef
fectual Cnre for It.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurnble
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat
ing sensation after eating accompanied
sometimes witn sour or wnterv risings
a formation of gases causing pressure
on the heart and lungs and difficult
breathing headaches fickle appetite
nervousness and a general played out.
languid feeling.
There is often n foul taste in the
mouth couted tongue ond if the interior
of the stomach could be seen it would
show a slimy inflamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble is found in a treatment which
causes the food to be readily thoroughly
digested before it has time to ferment
and irritate the delicate mucous sur-
luces or tne sromucn. To secure a
prompt and healthy digestion is the one
necessary thing to do. and when normal
digestion is secured the catarrhal condi
tion will have disappeared.
According to Dr. Ilurhinson the safest
anil nest treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet composed of diastase
aseptic pepsin a little mix. golden seal
und truit ucids. 'iliese tablets can now
be found nt all drug stores under the
nnine of Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets and
not being a putent medicine can be used
with perfect safety and assurance that
healthy appetite and thorough digestion
win toliow their regular use after meals
Mr. N. J. Hooher of 2710 Dearbon
street Chicago 111 writes: "Catarrh is
a local condition result mtr from a net!
lected cold in the head whereby the lin-
ing membrane of the nose becomes in-
flamed and the poisonous discharge
therefrom passing backward into the
throat -reaches tlie stomach thus pro-
ducing catarrh of the stomach. Medical
authorities prescribed for me for three
years for catarrh of stomach without
cure but today I am the happiest of men
after jising only .one box of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets. I can not find appropri-
ate words to express my good feeling. I
have found flesh appetite and sound rest

The surface of the body being chilled the pores are closed
and clogged and impurities which might pass off in
perspiration are forced back into the blood. Besides
this winter's hearty food fats and sweets contribute
more impurities.
This briefly explains the existence of Spring Humors those
unsightly eruptions painful boils annoying pimples and
other affections which make absolutely necessary the use
Hood's Sarsaparilla at this season.
But with some people impurities in the blood cause very
different symptoms. The kidneys liver and bowels are
overmatched in their efforts to relieve the clogged sys-
tem. Dizzy headaches bilious attacks failure of appetite
coated tongue lame back indigestion or that tired feeling
are some of the results.
From the same cause may r1.ro com.2 scrofula neuralgia

All these troubles and more may properly bo called "Spring
Humors" and just as there is one cause a cure is found
