Dr. Hodgetu. the FOR THE BLOOD. LJVER.LUNGS. Experience has shown to physicians that the tnajoritv or diseases have their origin in the derangement or disease of the stomach and other organs of diges- tton and nutrition. The stomach is the receptacle in which food is received nnd the laboratory in which it is prejmred to nourish the different parts of the body. Jt prejiares brain nourishment in one xvay , nerve nourishment in another. Bjusde nourishment in another. When the stomach is "out of order" these various forms of nourishment are only partly or imperfectly prepared , nnd nerve , ipusclc. or brain , as the case may be , is only partly fed , and the result is pain , which is Nature's protest nnd warning. The pain may be in the header or in the heart , but yon must reach it through the stomach or you can't cure it. That is the philosophy on which Dr. J'ierce's Golden Medical Discovery is prepared. It has absolute control of the stomach and digestive and nutritive cvsteniIt cures diseases in head , heart , liver , lungs and other organs by curing the diseased condition ot the stomach which prevents the proper nourishment of the vanons organs and corrupts them by its own diseased condition , in the partial nourishment it provides. In like manner "Golden Medical Difcoverj' " purifies the blood , by purifying ihe stomach and other Uood-matiug organs. It contains no alco hol , or other intoxi cant , and no narcotic. r btf isborei 'a { atn'ir to * n 1' * By i > * lp bt * ured io the rart ' and I > T heroic pring of tb * rafmber * frtBDdt of this rburtb and atw for tbf 1ii > - erallty of the tniftiDtttg tan of th ? tows It now lottY.t quit ? helpful that when Bishop Henry W Warrro of Drovrr oinnt * nrt Sunday It ] not bf & day of detrt-ralfloR. but & dy of prcet trlainj * and rrjoiclnp to this or miv.iTB Monument to Soldlrr-Dend AV111 Ur Krrrtrd nl Mndlxon.

The | committee adjourned to meet at 11 o'clock j j tomorrow morning. Its report will be presented - sented then. Many requepu have been made to c-tcnd the conference until Thursday , in order to give all the cpeakers who have prepared lapert. an opportunity to be heard. One aundred and two speakers have asked for plans on the program , but the manager * lave de-sided that KB it will be impossible to accommodate all , it would be uf-elcss to continue the convention another day. President Lrckwond of the executive com mittee called the meeting to order. In the course of his speech he said- "Now. what is the remedy * In my opin ion , one of the oiost important remedies Is the national ownership of the railways of the rountry. the highways. For I say to you that there is hardly a monopoly in America today that has not been created d maintained -by railway discriminations. Establish equal rates over the railways of the country , such as we would enjoy iinder government ownership. fo that every man can go to market with the products of hU handiwork , with the products of his mill , or his mine , or his farm , just as cheaply cs any other man. and monopoly will wither away. 'But hoxr can this reform tie brourht about ? Only by th ? ballot. Only by the organization of a great political power. In dependent rf party bcsses. strong enough to drive from public life the tools of moncpj olles and trusts , and { iut in their places men prompted by impulses for the public welfare. When you have done this the rest is easy. When jou have put into legislative halls and senatorial chambers , into execu tive chairs and upon Judicial benches the right kind of men. how- long will monopolies i last ? Not long. aionirnt Mnt Be JVoniinrtlunn . "But how- can this power be created ? Only by creating a no-apartiEun organization in every voting precinct in this nation. It must be an organization interfering with no man's politics BO that every republican , every democrat , every populist , every pro hibitionist , ever } ' reformer who is opposed to monopolies and trusts , can organize in their respective counties and townships , pledging themselves to vote against a can didate who can he controlled by this cor rupt corporate power. And BE. by magic , there Is a power created greater than the j power of corporate money in our public life. Yes , that power of tbe ballot , intelli gently and courageously wed , is the only power which can save our Institutions frccn disaster. "At the close of the civil war. when for four long years the perpetuity of our insti tutions of government had been hanging in i the balance , when doubt and dread hud hung over the land like a pall , the man whte birth we commemorate to day , that great patriot and statesman , Ab raham Lincoln , offered these words of r warning to his countrymen : 'As a result of the war , corporations have become en throned and an era of corruption in high places will follow. Tbe moneyed power of the country will endeavor to prolong ite reign by working upan the prejudii-e of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few bunds and the republic destroyed. ' "He said further , mark the words of this great man : 'I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety of my country than ever 'before , even in the midst of the war. God grant that my suspicions may prove groundless. " "But Lincoln's sutpiclons were not groundj less. Already tbe destructive and corrupt influences of corporate power have almost done their work. They are shattering the foundation stones of the republic. But j here and there and yonder , in every state ' of the republic , the rescuers and the leaders are gathering. The patriotic impulses of tbe people are being arouted and that power i omnipotent. Upon that power we must depend for tbe work that is before us. _ "And now. my friends , let us > how by our words and deeds that we are moved and j i ' prompted by lofty impulses and patriotic . desires ; that we are capable of raising ourselves - selves above partisan prejudices nnd per sonal cmbitions. Into your care and keeping - ing is consigned this movement for tbe de- . llverunre of the people from tbe curse of monopolies and trusts and may the God above us direct end guide you aright.

Tbe paper prepared by Alex- under Delmar , the political economist of New York , was read by Judge J. B. Fleming - ing Mr. DeJnisr was prevented from at tending tbe conference by illntms. Gtncruor Andrew E Lee of South Dakota said in nart : " \Ve are lace to face with a state of uni versal ownership of wealth end the sources end tools of wealth production , by mo nopoly , supplemented v.lth the universal elattiry of wealth producers.

Of one thing 1 am certain : We shall tit-ver go back over the past to get out. Monopoly's forts con never be taken by flank move ments.

The remedy will be found in tin attack upan tbe fystcm of which these monopolies are tbe proof. Revolution ! ! : ? the control of production and distribution. Make It democratic. It is now an imperial system. Substitute public for private ownership. Throw off private for public monopoly. Crush the rule of money and establish the rule of men.
