From Washington.
IsPEoIAL DISPATCH To THE WORCESTER SPY |

WASHINGTON, u. c., April II, 1911
THE HIGH COMMISSION.
Elk Senator Williams, of Oregon, a member
of the joint commission, expressed the opinion,
last evening, that the commission will conclude
their work before the first of May.
TIREsoME BUSINESS.
The senate got so sick of the election case of
Goldthwaite and Blodgett by the garrulous de-
bate, yesterday that it was prmptly laid on the
table this morning, and the kuklux bill taken
up. The democratic senators complain of the
committee amendment changing the time when
the law shall expire, and they will try very
hard, in the senate and house, to deiea! it.
PROPOSED REDUCTION OF TAXATION.
Senator Sherman will introduce resolution
in the senate, in day or two, authorizing the
finance committee, during the recess, to investi-
gate the whole subject of "revenue reform"
with an idea of reducing taxation fifty or sixty
millions. He and the finance committee of
which he lis chairman, unanimously agree that
the taxes should be so reduced that there will be
but little surplus revenue In the house. this
doctrine is supported by a majority of nearly
two-thlrds, and there is no doubt of large re-
duction next winter of internal taxation.
TIE DEFICIENCY BILL.
The deficiency bill was debated in the house
this afternoon, pretty thoroughly. Mr. Dawes
opened the debate, with a speech in his best
vein, and with a studied purpose not to excite
partizan feeling, The whole object of his
speech was TO promote harmony and careful
legislation. The democrats, however, attempt
cd to make party capital out of the bill, forget
ting that the democratic senators voted for
most of the jobs, which loaded itdown. Messrs.
Cox, Brooks, and others, argued in favor of
revenue REFORM" Mr.. Brooks claimed that
there would be surplus revenue of Zone hun
dred millions of dollars in the present fiscal
year, Notwithstanding the reduction in taxation
last year. SAM WELLER.

Old Things Have Passed Away.-This is
at least true of the old method of treating the
long abused and much abused human body.
II is no longer considered wise to put patient
to the torture in order TO cure him of dis
ease in which pain is already undermining
the energies of his system. True science
ranges itself on the side of nature, and en-
deavors to assist her in her fight against dis
ease. This is the province of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. the most approved tonic ever
advertised in this country. 1t may be recon-
mended as fall medicine par excellence; for
1t is in the fall that biliousness. dyspepsia
and malarious fevers are especially prevalent.
The frame, exhausted by the heats of sum-
mer. is relaxed and feeble at its close. and
requires. we may say demands artificial as
sistanee. Afford it that assistance in occa-
sional doses Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
and the evils referred to may be escaped.
Throughout the far West. and on the steaming
alluvial Of the Southern rivers. all the varie-
ties Of periodical fever are probably rife to-
day. Had course of Hostetter's Bitters
been commenced by the sufferers a month
ago. i. e.. before the unhealthy season set in,
seven-eighths of them would in all probability
be in their usua1,bealth at the present time.
So much for want Of forecaste. So much for
not keeping In the house. and using daily. the
best safeguard against epidemic and endemic
feyers. As nocks Of imposters and imitators
are trying to follow in the wake Of the great
American remedy, therefore be sure that the
article you buy is genuine and verified by the
proper trade marks. The true article can only
be obtained in bottles. Beware of the spurious
bitter sold By the gallon or in keg.
