are never initiated or cOHnteJeited. This
is especially true of a family medicine,
and it is positive proof that the remedy
initiated is of the highest value. AS soon
as it had been tested and proved by the
whole world that Hop Bitters was the
purest, best aAki most valuable family
medicine on earth, many limitations sprung
up and began to steal the notices in which
the press and people of the country had
expressed the merits of II. B., and in every
way trying to induce suffering in
valids to use their stuff instead, expect
ing to make money on the credit and good
name of II. b. Many others started nos
trums put up in similar style to II. B.,
with variously devised names in which
the word "HOp'' or ''HOps" were used in
a way to induce people to believe they
were the same as Hop Bitters. All such
pretended remedies or cures, no matter
what their style or name is, and especially
those with the word ''HOp' or Chops" in
their name or in any way connected with
them or their name, are limitations or
cOunterfeitS. Beware of them. Touch
none of them. Use nothing but genuine
Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of
green Hops on the white label. Trust
nothing else. Druggists and dealers are

The Mexican Reciprocity Treaty. (
FThs prhtecflonists haxe organized
lobby to defeat tie p1sposed reciprocity
treaty with Mexioo- Not even the fact
that General Grant was at the head OF the
commission for its negotiation can recon-
Gle them to the adoption of the treaty.
The General has given some very good
reasons why the treaty should be ap-
proved. No doubt it would work
Ia the interests Of the people
of this country. The prOtectionists, how
ever. avow that its provisions are uncon-
stitutional. They are not wont 10 consult
the Constitution, and that they raise this
objection would lead most people to doubt
their sincerity.
Consul sutton. of MatamOras, citing the
fact that about SS0,OOO,OO0 of American
capital has been invested in Mexico, and
that several great railroad lines are under
construction. says: IF this development
is unchecked expect to see the Mexican
imports run to $4O,OOO,OO0, or even 800
OOO.OOO, inside of five years. 1t is all
important to us that we handle as mueh
Of this sum as possible"
The statement is, perhaps IN the mann
accurate. but it is urged that Grant ana
others are interested in Mexico, and are
working for personal ends. This Is weak,
indeed. for if Grant Ct al. don't make
money out Of Mexico, foreign capitalists
will. VIII the treaty increase our foreign
trade. is the point to be considered. If
it will increase that trade, it should be
los
should be concluded with every country
offering like conditions.
There is not a prominent industry in
this country that is not suffering from
the want of a market. Suspensions of
manufacturing establishments are taking
place every day. They have been pro
tected to death The troubles pressing
upon the country after less than three
years of prosperity, which were pre-
coded by six years Of terrible depres-
sion. do not come from a scarcity of
anything, but are caused by OverstOcked
markets. The capacity to pro-
duce, under the inflated policy of prOtec-
ton, exceeds our ability to consume.
There is an abundance of capital; there is
"A surplus of labor-men desiring TO work
for the sake OF bread-but there is no mar
ket, it is OverstOcked, and there will be
none as long as we adhere to the vicious
system of increasing the price Of raw ma
! terials and the cost of finished goods by
protective tariff legislation. The present
| depression of trade is the direct effect of
protection.
The remedy for this is reciprocity trea-
ties carefully framed and rigidly adhered
to. With our splendid natural resources,
| to say that we cannot compete with the
older nations Of Europe in the leading in
dustries, is to insult ordinary intelligence.
What we want is new markets. Relying
upon the home market is much the same
as applying leeches till they are stated,
and then letting the patient recover blood
| for Il SC cOnd sucking.

NelCS: am constantly in receipt of letters
from various parts of the district, asking

are directed TO Washington, and are for
warded to me here. AS many as twelve
came by one mail. l have done the best l
could with these requests; l have
sent them to the Hon. George r.
Black, our present member, to whom
they should have been originally pre-
ferred. The newspapers of the district
will confer favor on the people and ON
myself by giving the information that 1

next, yet that / will not take my seat
until the first Monday of Dec ember next,
unless Congress shall be convened in

largely obtained from Brazil, where the
sources of these choice and valuable ma
terials are known to be well nigh mex

them admirably fitted by their hardness,

There are numerous houses kept by Ger

intelligently, and bring to bear all the

own vineyards, but buy grapes in quanti-

their own premises, selling their own
make along with Rhine wines. They do a
wholesale as well as a retail trade, and all
i'm a quiet, unpretentious fashion. The
prices are low, and the wine pure, so that
Importation cannot take the place of the
home manufacture.

1t appears from statistics which have
recently been compiled that the United
States possesses in round numbers 3S,00O,-
600 cattle, India $4,000, 900, and Russia
29,OOO,OOO. Russia has 2O,OOO,OOO horses,
the United States 100000, and Austria
3,JO0,OOO. Australia possesses S0,OOO.OOO
sheep, the Argentine Republic 6S,OOO,000,
and Russia 63,OOO,OC0. The United States
comes fourth in this list, with SO, 1900,
but in the matter Of swine she heads the
world, having 4s,0O0,OOO. The goat is an
important animal in many countries,
India is credited with no less than 20,OO9,-
600. Africa with 15,0clOO0, and Mexico
with 6,OO0,00O. From the above figures it
will be seen that the United States comes
first in the list of nations with the two
most important articles of flesh flOc1, cat
tie and hogs, while she is second in horses
and fourth in sheep. In regard TO the lat.
ter two animals, however, she is making
rapid strides to a higher position.

The performance Of the NEWS was due

Why HuBBeII is Happy.

Mr.. Hubbell was more successful in
keeping up his voluntary assess ment'
on copper than that on the civil service
EMPLOYEES. The House voted down the
proposition To admit low grade copper ore
free. BY doing so they have voted to per-
petuate one Of the worst swindles of this
swindling tariff. There is actually not
one word to be said i'm favor of the tax on
copper consumers. 1t is tax to make
anti-American millionaires still less
American and stu more wealthy.

army, too, has played an important part
IN swayIng the destinies Of France. But
