THE CLAIMS QUESTION.

The House of Representatives had
under consideration last week,
proposition to transfer a large pro-
portion of the claims now pending
against the government for property
used and destroyed during the late
war, to the Court of Claims II that
were the speediest and surest meth
cd of settling these claims, in the in
terest of justice, we should favor it,
but on the contrary, it is just the con
trary. Already the government has
been guilty of objectionable mig
gardliness in these matters, and we
trust that no policy will be adopted
looking to further delay and contin-
ued injustice.
We are satisfied that the plan upon
which the government is now pro-
ceeding, is the very best
that can be adopted under
the circumstances. For years

A WASHINGTON dispatch to the
New York Tribune gives the follow
ing picture of affairs in Chill:
A private letter has been received
here from one of the officers of the
United States steamship Pensacola,
who has been for some weeks at
Santiago de Chill. 1t represents the
Chilians as being greatly amused at
the attitude of the United States
Government to day. The letter states
that the assertions which have been
made in some American newspapers
that the United States had no navy
to cope with Chill, and that Chill
could send her Iron~clads to San
Francisco and lombard that place,
have not only been copied in all the
Chilian newspapers, but have also
been the subject of many cartoons
in their illustrated newspapers. The
editorial comments in Chill are those
of great glee, and the JOY of the peo
pie there at the change in the policy
begun by Secretary Blaine is open
and avowed. The letter says that
there is no doubt that Chill has been
receiving moral support from Eng
land, and the writer asserts it as the
general belief that England and Chill
have come to some understanding
respecting the Isthmus canal. He
declares that is everywhere there be-
lieved that England intends to con-
troll either the whole canal or fair
share in it. The officer says that in
some way the Chilians are kept in>
formed of the purposes of this Gov
eminent, and Mr.. Trescot has been
astonished to find that information
which should have reached him first
has been known to people in Chill
before he himself had received it of
ficially or privately.

A Cincinnatian's Trick.

A Cincinnati man went to st. Louis
and advertised to teach telegraphy to
lady with reference to procuring her q
situation tuition, $25, on easy terms.
He had several applications from shop
girls, seamstresses, etc., and for some
time continued it so that each one
thought she was the one favored pupil
who was learning the art and would get
the situation. But after meeting each
other on the stairs and about the build
ing several times they grew suspicious
and began to press him for that situa-
ton. Then he slid out with their money.
He had long hair and big teeth, which
the st. Louis papers say is their reason
for thinking he came from Cincinnati !,
but he was so accomplished talkeI
that the women forgot how ugly he was.

special agents to investigate these
claims was parsimonious to the last
degree. But soon after the beginning
ofMr. Hayes administration, through
the efforts OF Mr.. George B.
McCreary, these appropriations were
increased so that a large number of
additional agents were put in the
field and the work has been carried
on with considerable zeal. Thous-
ands of claims have been investigat-
ed and reported for payment Hun
dredsof claims, not meritorious, have
been reported against. We can see
no good reason for a change soon.
Let the good work go on. Let a
sufficient appropriation be made to
carry it out efficiently, and in a few
years the whole matter will be dis
posed OF.

PLAIN
TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation of
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BITTERs will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part of the system, and it will
rot blacken the teeth, Cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively not injurious.

THE CASE OF HALLET KILBOURN.

A few years ago when the
House of Representatives was en-
gagged in one of the "drag-net in>
designations which have been SO
common in the last ten or twelve
years, Hallet Kilbourn, a citizen of
Washington, was summoned to ap-
pear before a committee and testify
with regard to the affairs of a ''real
estate pool" in which the firm of
Jay Cooke & Co. were interested.
He declined to answer certain ques.
tons propounded to him, touching
the operations of the SPOOL" for
which he was brought to the bar of
the House and sentenced to impris-
onment for contempt. He remained
in jail several weeks and was finally
released on a writ of habeas corpus.
He then brought an action against
the Sergeant-atsArms, John G..
Thompson, for false imprison-
ment, and last week otained judg
ment for the sum of one hundred
thousand dollars, the court holding
that the House mot only exceeded
its own authority, but assumed a
power which could only be properly
exercised by another branch of the
government, because it was in it's
nature clearly judicial"
The result is a bad thing for ex>
Sergeant-at-Arms, John g. Thomp>
son, but we presume Congress will
come to his relief, he having made
thearrest by order of the committee of
the House. 1t is good thing for
Kilbourn. One hundred thousand
dollars will amply repay him for all
the damage he sustained during his
Imprisonment. And it may be a
good thing for the country by way
of opening the eyes of Congress to
the fact that private individuals have
rights that must be respected, even
by committees engaged in "drag-
net Investigations.

Tribune, and Jos Bobleter, of the
New Ulm Review, are reappointed
postmasters in their respective towns.
All of these are good appointments
made in pursuance, not of George

reform, but of that more sensible idea
which says honorable and faithful SER
vice to party, shall not be forgotten in
the distribution of its awards.
Neither of these men have worked
for the last twenty years, in the re-.
publican ranks for the reward which
the party has to bestow, but because
they are sincere believers in the prin-
ciples of the party, and we are glad to
see them thus reaping the natural
fruits of their faithful devotion to
principle.

county has candidate whose claims
and abilities are equally as meritori-
Gus, and whose appointment would
meet the appreciation of larger
number of people in the district than
any other that Gov. Hubbard could
make. The man we refer to IS Ben

Weber is sober, industrious and
Conscientious man, and old and ex.
perienced practitioner, and pru.

acknowledged to be second to none
in the district. He is not a gifted
and fowry orator like Judge Cox,
but he has way of expressing him
self that is generally understood.
He possesses a good quantity of
common horse sense and always
knows how to use it when occasion
requires. He has been county. at
torney of Bro vn County for nearly
eight years, and is esteemed as an
upright and honorable gentleman by
all who have learned to know him.
Brown county is centrally located in
the district, and persons having bu.
siness with the judge, if he were To-
Gated at New Ulm, could always
reach him in days travel. Give US
