Another Railroad Proposition.

Tbe Rensselaer Republican, a sheet that has always stood for and advocated every skin-game for bleeding the taxpayers of Jasper county for tbe past quarter of a century, and is now the mouthpiece of Railroad Promoter Gifford, says in its Tut s lay issue: B. J. Gifford is in town today, and petitions are being drawn up, asking for elections to vote on the question of aid for the C. & W. V. R. R. for Barkley, Marion, Jordan and Carpenter townships. It is proposed to ask for a bonus equal to one and a half per cent, of assessed valuation in each of these townships. This is with the understanding that if the railroad is built it will be over the new route direct from the town of Gifford to Rensselaer, and further, as we understand, to follow the wishes of Jordan, and Remington people as to where it crosses Jordan, and enters Remington. If these taxes are voted Mr. Gifford will at once proceed to survey the proposed line and find the cost of building a road over it, and the cost of right-of-way and if he finds that he r can afford to build the road here, for the bonuses offered . he will do so. if he finds otherwise he will say so and no one will be out very much. There you have it. Go to the expense of holding the elections, and, if the tax is voted, and Mr. Gifford finds he can build the road and have a neat sum left, why perhaps he will go ahead sometime and build it. If he thinks otherwise he will not. Will the people be fools enough to petition for an election and go to an expense of several hundred dollars on any such “heads I win, tails you lose” proposition as that? The Democrat long ago dropped Gifford and his railroad schemes and we believe a large majority of the people have at last seen that we were not far wrong when we did so.

A Woman's Awful Parti“There is only one chance to save your life and that is through an operation,” were the startling words heard bv Mrs. I. B. Hunt of Lime Ridge, Wis., from her doctor after he had vainly tried to cure her of a frightful case of stomach trouble and yellow jaundice. Gall stones formed and she constantly grew worse. Then she began to use Electric Bitters which wholly cured her. It’s a wonderful Stomach, Liver and Kidney remedy. Cures Dyspepsia, Loss of Appetite. Try it. Only 50cts. Guaranteed.

Mias Florence Newman, who has been a great sufferer from muscular rheumatism, says Chamberlain’s Pain Balm is the only remeify that affords her relief. Miss Newman is a much respected resident of the village of Gray, N. Y., and makes this statement for the benefit of others similarly afflicted This liniment is fur sale by Hunt Bros. Druggists. Food is Repulsive to the stomach that is irritated and sensitive. Nervous disorders of the brain irritate the stomach nerves making it weak and easily deranged. That’s why so many people who suffer from headache have weak stomachs. AR nervous troubles, whether of the brain, stomach ! or heart yield most readily to Dr. Miles’ Nervine. “Starting from a xmall apot In my brain P»*n would steadily increase until it seemed that my head would split open. 1 would be deathly sick at*the stomach, would vomit terribly and many times have gone from 24 to 30 liours-without food or drink.

It’s up to the People.

Less than a year remains in which to gather facts, and information that will influence your vote for the next president of the United States. That grievous wrongs have been committed, and grave errors allowed to exist without effort at correction, is evidenced by the speech, writings, and comments of eminent statesmen and jurists; congressmen find leading men of business; professors and clergymen in every state. Party affiliations have been ignored in the outcry against thrusting aside the safeguards of our fathers and rushing pell-mell into the affairs of Europe. The situation is a deplorable one if ,not alarming; as is also our domestic affairs dominated by gigantic Trusts. The evils are not of spontaneous growth! They are the result of years of labor and expenditure of millions of dollars! Beginning with the displacement of American silver for English gold, the cunning of England’s diplomacy in shaping the destiny of our Republic is apparent to any ordinary observer seeking the true inwardness of events. The Cincinnati Enquirer has frequently called attention to each and every move as it was transpiring, and during the campaign of 1900 will present its readers with a truthful array of facts that will be extremely interesting and startling. No fair-minded American, be he Republican, Democrat or of other political faith, can afford at this critical time to ignore the truth. Partisan prejudice, with the Trusts as dictators, is a far more degrading slavery than that which existed previous to the Civil War of’6l-64. Trusts in the United States alone have a representative capital greater than all the gold and silver in the world. These will spend many more millions of dollars to suppress truth and facts and mislead all who fail to look beyond their plausible deceptions. Read the Enquirer and you will be able to discern the truth and combat falsehood. A victory for Trusts and the McKinley Administration in 1900 will end the era of greatest good to greatest number. Watch carefully the Cincinnati Enquirer. Minnesota seed or table potatoes 34c bushel this week and Monday, May 28th. Chicago Bargain Store.

Biliousness is a condition characterized by a disturbance of the digestive organs. The stomach is debilitated, the liver torpid, the bowels constipated. There is a loathing of food, pains in the bowels, dizziness, coated tongue and vomiting, first of the undigested or partly digested food and then of bile.
