A BILL THAT OUGHT TO FAIL.


 Representative Brewer, of New Jersey, has introduced a bill ''to prevent frauds in the Customs revenue" This bill provides that whenever any person not an officer of the United States shall furnish to the Secretary Of the Treasury, or to any chief officer of the Customs, or to district attorney, original information concerning any fraud upon the Customs revenue, perpetrated or contem- plated, which shall lead to the recovery of any duties withheld or of any fine, penalty, or forfeiture incurred, whether by importers or their agents, or by any officer person employed ln the Customs service, such per- son so furnishing information shall be enti- tied to receive one third Of the gross pro- ceeds of such duties, fine, penalty, or for feiture so recovered, to be paid under such regulations as the Secretary of the Treasury may prescribe There is an inducement held out to officers, for the second section of Mr. Brewers bill provides that whenever any off, hcer or en1ploye of the government shall de- tect and seize goods, wares and merchandise, in the act of being smuggled," or goods fraudulently undervalued, or who shall de- tect a fraud by yundervaluation, false weights, fictitious description, or any other device, upon the Customs revenue, such officer shall be entitled to receive ono fourth of the gross proceeds resulting from such seizure, or which may be recovered on account of such frauds. The third section of the bill repeals the act which repealed the moiety act.
 It is not probable that the advocates of revival of the moiety system will accomplish anything in the present House, and it is to be hoped that if they are perseyering enough to continue their efforts they will fail in the next House. Probably the government could "make something' if the moiety sys- tenn were revived, but the New York Times tells the truth when it says s'It is a danger ous principle to offer special rewards for do. ing what the employees of the government ought to accomplish in the faithful discharge of their duties, and experience has shown that the moiety system can be used with as much effect te persecute and annoy the honest importer as to check the practices of knaves..''

 According to the Medical Nescs of Philadel- phla it makes some difference what kind of qulnine pflls the malarious buy. It finds by expert analysis that only two out of seven prominent manufacturers give an honest weight of suiphate of quinine in their 'two- grain" pills. Whose made by one firm con tain 2 10 graiips and next to these are pills containing 1.99 grains. The others run down as low as 1.61 grains, and the price varies from SS2 75, the highest, to $1.7O, the lowest, per hundred. When it gets so that we can not even depend upon finding the right quantity of 'nastiness" in pills it is time for reform.

 Texas has been altogether too generous in selling millions of acres of land cheaply to spectators. These men at once resold the lands at profit of from fifty to one hundred per cent. The State has ra5Sed a fund of three or four millions of money, by sacrific- ing probably six or eight milliof's of proper ty. Instead of an agent or coiNmission for the sale of these lands, the StaI., has been content with a general enactIsent under which the spectators have reaped harvest It is proposed to have & commission of competent men who will fix value,h for the lands and see to their sale at the best advant- age to the State. This policy, if adopted a few years ago, would have saved the State millions of dollars.

of the universal success of Browns Iron Bitters is sim ply this: It is the best Iron preparation ever made; is compounded on thoroughly scientific, chemical and medicinal principles, and does just what is claimed for it-no more and no less.
 By thorough and rapid assimilation with the blood, it reaches every part of the system, healing, purifying and strengthening. Com- mencing at the foundation it builds up and restores lost health-in no other way can lasting benefit be obtained.
