PR.OGR.ESS of POPULISM
Ohio Petitions Filed
Aside from New Yors, and perhaps
Maryland and West Virginia, the Ohio
statutes impose the heaviest burden
upon third parties The law requires a
petition signed by at least 3 per cent
of the vote cast at the preceding elec
tion. ...... r;, "
The national committee had every
confidence in the ability of Dr. R. H.
Reemelm, secretary of the state com
mittee, and felt that he would not
fail to secure the necessary petition,
xln this the committee were not disap
pointed. Four of the strongest "Bryan demo-,

for populism were never brighter in i
these parts. It seems' to have taken I
on new life and .every populist -is well
pleased with our national ticket. The
Hon. ,Thomas E.. Watson is thf Tight
man in the rieht place: he is a true
and tried friend of the people; has!
never wavered but stayed true .from
the beginning! ' God : bless him, in his
noble fight. I hope that victory will
crown his efforts. Let every populist
put his shoulder to, the wheel, and we
will get there." -
A letter from Hon: Fr JrlSlttRJlM
son, state chairman, Cloverlahd, Ind.,
says that the populists of the Fifth
Indiana congressional district held
their convention on the 23d nit., and
nominated Hon. L. L. Johnson of
Clay county for congress. Mr. Rob
inson savs that Mr Johnson has bern

Press - dispatches -from Olympia,
Wash., state that Edward Clayson; sr.,
eduor of the Patriarch, Seattle, ap
peared before the secretary of state at
the eleventh hour and filed with that
officer the necessary petition entitling
the people's party " of the state o
Wasnington to an official place on the
ballot. There are six tickets on the
Washington ballot, namely, republican,
democrat jc, socialist, -socialist labor,
prohibition and people's.
- Owing to the lukewarmnes3 of some
of the state committee of Washington,
Air. Clayson advises that' the -petition
for, putting on a state ticket failed to
secure the necessary signatures. There
is,', however, ; considerable feeling
against Turner, the democratic nomi
nee;' who was formerly a populist or
claimed to be and deserted the party
in, its hour of heed; and it is quite
Tiijely that a good many populists wiJ
even up matters by voting for the re
publican 'candidate in order to beat Mr.
Turnir. This feeling was intensified
by .the fact that Turner was promi
nently, .before the St. -Louis convention
as running mate for Parker, and doubt;
lesswould have landed the nomination
had it not been for the. fact that his
barrel is not so large as that of Grand
pa Davis."

Reference to his individual

out on the 11th day of December, 1903,
and that Mr. Florea sent in a . list of
names of the other populists, among
whom was his father living in Lewis
county. A letter of invitation was
sent to the elder Florea, and .he
promptly responded with his enroll

one can judge of populist activity by
the ; mail coming in, however, Texas
must take second place, and allow
Tennessee to stand in front as being
the most active state in the union to
day? for populism. Although there are
signs of great activity in Texas, yet
the receipts of mail from Tennessee at
headquarters are something remark
able. Hardly a day goes by that from
75 to J200 letters and cards are received
from that state. . And strange to say
there is not a populist paper in the
state. The Independent,; the Missouri
World, and the Southern Mercury, each
have a large circulation there, and the
Knoxville Independent is doing great
work in behalf of Watson and Tibbies,
but it is classed as an organ of or

A 50c. Bottle of Lfquozone and Give it to You to Try.
We want you to know about Liquo
zone, and the product itself can tell
you more than we. So we ask you to let
us buy you a bottle a full-size bottle
-to try. Let it prove that it does what
medicine can not do. - See what a
tonic it is. 'Learn that it dees kill
germs. Then you will use it always,
as we do. and as millions of others do.
This oifer itself should convince you
tnat -I.iquozon does as we claim. We
would certainly nof buy a bottle and
give it to you if there was any doubt
of results. You want those results;
you want to be well and to keep well.
And you can't -''do that nobody can
without Liquozone.
We Paid $100,000-
For -the-American rights to Liquo
zone. We did this after testing the
producfM'or two years, through physi
cians and hospitals, after proving, in
thousands of different cases, that
Liquozono destroys the. cause of any
germ disease.
Liquozone has, for more than 20
years, been the constant subject of
seieutffic and chemical, research. It is
not made by compounding drugs, nor
with alcohol. Its virtues are derived
solely from gas largely oxygen gas
by a process requiring immense appa
ratus and 14 days' time. . The result is
a Liquid that does what oxygen does.
It is a nerve food and blood food the
most helpful thing In the world to you.
Its effects are exhilarating, vitalizing,
purifying. Yet it is a germicide so
certain that we publish on every bot
tle an offer of ; $1,000 for a disease
germ that it can not kill. The reason
is that germs are vegetables; and
Liquozone like an excess of oxygen
is deadly to vegetal matter.
There lies the great value of Liquo
zone. It is the only way known to kill
germs ia the body without killing the
tissue, too. Any drug that kills germs
is a poison, and it can not be taken in
ternally. Every physician knows that
medicine is almost helpless in any
germ disease.
Germ Diseases.
' These are the known germ disease.
All that medicine can do for these
troubles is to help Nature overcome
the germs, and such results are Indi
rect and uncertain. Liquozone attacks
the germs, wherever they are. And
when the germs which cause a disease
are destroyed, the disease must end,
and forever. That is inevitable.
