A Sure Cure Found at Last. No One
Need Suffer.
A sure cure for the Blind, Bleeding,
Itching and liberated Piles has been
discovered by DR.. Williams ian Indian
remedy, called DR.. Williams Indian
Ointment. A single box has cured the
worst chronic cases Of twenty-five and
thirty years standing. No one need
suffer five minutes after applying this
wonderful soothing medicine. Lotions,
instruments and electuaries do mora
harm than good. Williams Ointment
absorbs the tumors, allays the intense
itching particularly at night after get
ting warm in bed), acts rs a poultice,
gives instant and painless ralief, and is
prepared only for the piles, itching of
the private parts, and nothing else.

WHISKY IN BOND.
THE DistiIiers Niodestiy Rest Content ut
Two Years Extension.

Ine blStnlerS MOuestly hest COnvent ut
Two Years Extension.
There is one subject for legislation that
made much matter for the newspapers during
the late session of congress which will have to
be settled without strenuous effort 1t is the
"whisky bill" so-called, being Originally a
clause in the little revenue BILL to provide for
the extension Of tile bonded period for whisky.
The public will remember the Senate in
vestigating committee, and the many charges
and suspicious that went along with the work
of the distillers to secure this relief last
winter. The general belief is that they
failed because they wanted too much.
At first it was a reduction of the
and an indefinite extension Of the bonded
period, which is now three years. The dis
tillers considered themselves neglected. and
perhaps they were. However that may have
been, they Joined in q resolution declaring
that they would not be content with such
tcmporizing legislation as that proposed for
extending the time on whisky in warehouse
at the time of the passage of the act only. So
they came on again, this time with such
substantial support as was afforded by a
recommendation in Commissioner Raum's
report that relief by extending the bonded
period be given the whisky trade Repre-
sentative distillers from Kentucky, Illinois,
anu onlO nave conferred Wltn prominent gem
tlemen Of the senate finance committee, and
have agreed to be content with an extension
Of two years on whisky now made which Is
such q come-down from the original demand
that it will probably meet little if any oppdsi-
tion. They now graciously agree to take
What they refused last winter, prompted, in a
great degree, no doubt, by the fact that some
measure Of relief is absolutely necessary
to save several heavy distillers from
going by the board. This will save
them, and perhaps the trade can adjust
itself to the conditions it imposes Upon them
as producers, though some of them would
have the law apply to whisky whether now
made or to be made, believing that it leaves
the whole question open to be again adjusted
by legislation. The prospect for repealihg
all laws imposing iiternal-revehue taxes is
not good enough to be made basis of any
heavy transactions looking to future produc-
tion, though some of the distillers believe the
tax will be taken off whisky by the time this
proposed two-years' law shall have expired.
| Whether it is the best that can be done or
not it is modest in the distillers to rest con-
tent with SO little, and they will have no such
exasperatihg experiences as they did last win
ter. One result Of all the investigating that
was done was to show the heavy distillers to
be as deserving of relief as any other taxed
class, SO far as business is affected. In fact
the banks are as anxious for this measure OF
relief as the distillets themselves. 1t will be
long time before whisky is excused from
paying tax, and it ought to be. Meanwhile,
the trade is entitled to fair play.

Commissioner Loring,s Return.

Commissioner of agriculture Loring re-
turned on Saturday from st. Louis, which
city he visited for the purpose of addressing
convention of sorghum sugar growers. The
commissioners speech embraced history of
the industry, the work of the department up
to the present time, and the conclusions of its
chemist, the result of the investigations of the
committee of the national academy of science,
and the possibilities of the future develop
ment of the industry.
The Globe-DemOcrdt says that the speech was
enthusiastically received, and the commits.
sioner's course heartily approved, as evidenced
by the following resolution offered by Mr..
Belcher, chemist, who for some years has
been making the study of the sorghum plant
a speciality, and who occupied for some time
the position of scientific expert to the associa-
ton:
Resolved That the thanks of this association are
hereby extended to the Hon. George b. Lurlng,
the United states commissioner of agriculture,
for his most interesting and exhaustive address,
and for the sound judgment he has displayed in
co-opera Ing both with the manufacturers of sor-
ghum sugar in the development OF their indus
try and also with those scientific investigators
who have examined the capacity and quality Of
sorghum sugar producing plants.

Mr.. Robson opposed the amendments. The
sums mentioned were either too much or too
little--too little to satisfy the demands of the
railway companies, too much to pay for the
service running out of the city of New York.
Another objection he had was that while it
might be contended that the postmaster gen

right to require railways to carry tho mails ON

A good deal has been said in regard to the

Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
ROBERT Il. LINCOLN.
1t was stated last night that the agent of the
watch company was in the city with his
charges and specifications all prepared, and
was hunting round for some one to interview
him on the subject.
A REPUBLICAN reporter, however, inter-
viewed prominent member of the executive
committee of the late fair in regard to the
cause of the difficulty, who said that when
Col. Corbin makes his defense, if he is called
upon to make one, he will show up the watch
company in very unfavorable light;
that the agent who came on here
to represent the company endeavored
to "do the whole committee; that the five
watches which he placed in the hands of the
committee were not watches at all, but simply
works without any cases; that Col. Corbin
and the rest of the committee were indignant
at this and offered the watches back to the
agent for $1O but he declined to buy at that
price, and that possibly he might have offered
them for S., but they were refused by the
agent at any price He said that the five sets
Of works were sold for $40, or 81 apiece, and
that the watch company or the agent certainly
can't be accused of over generosity.
