statesmen generous. We had abdicated
our sovereignty and granted to the
money speculators of , the world the
power and privilege to draw on our
treasury at will. They very naturally
preferred United States bonds, to the
corporate securities tney were holding.

from, the treasury and paid back in:
and in a very short time the whole
amount had been withdrawn, and an
other 50 millions of bonds were is
sued. Within two months thereafter
G9 millions had been drawn from the
treasury. Dating from the first bond
issue to this time 116 millions of dol

six months later when 162 millions had
been -borrowed on bond Issues we find

At . this point .Cleveland secured an
agreement with the European money
power (Rothschilds) that they would
take the next b"nd issue an,d not draw

for this agreement, but jhe was only
asking them to forego the power which
a congress of knaves had placed in
their hands. The sovereignity of the
nation had been abdicated; she could
not protect herself. The power was
in the hands of the Invisible empire.
And when the incident was closed the
property values In this country had di
minished one-half; homes were sold,
business bankrupt, Banks broke, and a

Editor Independent: I : herewith en
close my check: No. 1662 to the amount
of $2, which pays my subscription for
The Independent to Dec. 17, 1905. I
could hardly get along without The In
dependent as I depend upon it largely
tor statistics. I appreciate the fight it
made this year for reform legislation
both in the state and nation. Though
I can not say that I endorse the at
tacks The Independent made on Mr.
Bryan, as we believe him to be tho
same Bryan, fully as honest and sin
cere in his advocacy of the principles
of our platform as he was when he was
our candidate in 1896 and 1900. I be-;
lieve that in the next campaign the
ripple's Independent j?arty can accom
piLrjBr?,, for reform by supporting
Mr, Bryan, toft t&s "residency than to
nominate another candita divide - -:

unite and win than to divide and lose.
Mr. Bryan will undoubtedly be the can
didate of the democracy in 1908. as
he is already nominated in the hearts
of the great majority of the democratic -party.
I believe that not only the peo
ple's independent party but, all par
ties and factions of parties, that de- .
sire reform legislationIn the interest
of the masses, should begin at once
to bring about conditions that will
result, in the election of this great
commoner, as the common people nev
er had a better friend thitf'W. j. Bry
an. if The independent and the peo
ple's independent party, would" assist
in his election they would have won
a great victory as we of the people's
party should feel a great interest in
Mr. Bryan, and especially those of Ne-
uraK.a, as we oeaeve mm u De one
of our converts to a great extent.
Trusting that The Independent will
cease its warfare on Mr. Bryan, and
do all it can to encourage and JSgtet x

Armed Pea.c
The Chinese Miniser at Washington
makes, the following sensible remarks
on the plea that nations must have
big navies and armies for the purpose
of securing peace:
"Strange as 1; may seem, the enlight
ened opinion of the world is steadily
coming around to. the position taken
by China with respect to militarism.
War could never be anything else but
'hell,' as General Sherman described it.
The Chinese found that out 2,000 years
ago. Now, the greatest powers of the
world seem to come to the same con
clusion. With the view of reducing the
possibility of var as much as possible,,
arbitration 13 the methods now best
recommended for the settlement of in
ternational disputes.' This is a step In
the right direction. But as long as
nations are armed to the teeth there is
always a strong temptation to test the
effectiveness of the weapons they possess.
"As long as there Is powder in the
magazines there, is always " danger of
an explosion from a flying spark."

There lies the great value of Liquo
zone. It is the only way known to kill
germs in the, body without killing the
tissue, too. Any drug that kills germs
is a poison and it can not be taken in

medicine is almost helpless in any

All that medicine can do for these

the germs, wherever they are. And
when the germs which cause a disease
are destroyed, the disease must end,
