SOME BILLS.
Important Measures Intro
duced and Considered in Com
mittec.

WASHINGTON, March ia bill has
been introduced in the house by Repre-
sentative Budd, of California, to pro-
hibit the importation and sale of opium.
The bill provides that the importation of
opium, except aqueous extracts for medi-
cal use and tinctures, shall be prohibited
under penalties of fine and imprison-
ment. Sellers who knowingly aid or abet
its importation or sale, shall be punished
by a fine not exceeding s 1000, and i'm
prisonment not exceeding five years.
The committee on foreign affairs adopt
cd, without amendment, the resolution
and reportiof the sub committee OH the
Laskar resolution, and submitted them
to the house to-day. The committe also
reported to the house the resolution
acknowledging expressions of kindly feel
ing on the part of German liberals and
providing their action in acknowledgment
of the Lasker resolution shall be made a
matter of official record.
The house committee on private land
claims agreed to report favorably on the
bill which passed the senate recently,
providing for settlement of private lands
in New Mexico, Wyoming, Arizona, Utah,
Nevada and Colorado, arising out of
grants made by Mexico before the land
included in those states and territories
was coded to the United States.
The secretary of the interior sent to the
senate an information concerning I'M
authorized fencing in public lands. The
secretary is satisfied from information re-
ceived that the practice of illegally in.
closing public lands is extensive through
out the grazing regions and many millions
of acres are thus inclosed to the exclusion
of the stock of all others than fence
owners and to the prevention of settle
ments and obstruction of public travel.

cution in the Carpenter case rested this

A Splendid Remedy for Lung Dis.

DR.. Robt. Newton. late President of the
Eclectric College of the City of New York,
and formerly of Cincinnati, Ohio, used DIR.
WIN. HALLS BALSAM very extensively in his
practice, as many of his patients, now living,
and restored to health by the use of this in
valuable medicine, can amply testify. He
always said that so good a remedy ought not
to be considered merely as a patent medicine,
but that it ought TO be prescribed freely by
every physician as a sovereign remedy in al
cases of Lung diseases. 1t is a sure cure for
Consumption, and has no equal for all pectoral
complaints.

Thomas Drummond said: Gentlemen yon
consider yourselves good lawyers. How
much more are your services worth to your
clients thanImine to!the people? You have
charged $4,000 for sixty days service.
Could you not be content, each of you, to
take my pro rata for the same tire? These
charges are infamous. They are such as
men who are scoundrels and thieves at
heart would make. This charge of $4,000
is cut down to 81 500, those of $4,000 each
to $500. Repeat such piece of rapine in
this court and 1 will disbar every one OF
Won. -

A Case that Puzzled the Whole

to whom she had paid large sums of money
for treatment, but she rapidly grew worse.
She was then taken to the most reputable
physicians and surgeons in New FORK, But
with no better success. They had all pro-
nounced it cancer, and declared she must
die. The flesh of her breast was eaten
away down to her ribs; the breast bone
was laid bare. and the disease made its
way upwards, causing the breast to becom e
detached from the wall Of the chest, hang
ing loose from above. See page 26, of DR..

I TWO DOLL AIRS PER ANNUM
No. 81
Good Reasons.

Hon. James Corkley, a leading lawyer of
Trenton, N. j., native of ireland, and
one of the most prominent and influential
Democrats in Trenton, in reply to attacks
made upon him and other Irishmen and
workingmen for following his example in
repudiating Cleveland and coming out for
Blaine, publishes letter in which he says :
II am loath that our native manufacturer
and his Workmen should be subject to IN
cumbranceS from which Mr.. Cleveland and
his party propose to exempt the foreign
manufacturer and foreign mechanic. Our
native manufacturer is taxed for every
article that he places in our market before
a sale is effected. His workmen are taxed
for the houses wherein they dwell, and for
the various articles which they consume.
To break down the protecting barriers of
the nation would be to give to the foreign
manufacturer, who has contributed moth
ing to the SubStentatiOn of orr Govern
ment, the same privileges as che native
who by his taxes contributes to pay the
expenses of the municipality as well as of
the state and nation. The money resulting
from the sale OF native manufactured ar
ticles is spent in our midst, contributing
thereby to the welfare of the community
as well as to the support of Government,
which cannot be said Of the moneys result
ing from the sale of foreign consignments.
To subject the native to the burden and
exempt the foreigner from this two-fold
duty or lmpoSt is, in my opinion, mon
strous as well as grevious injustice, and
therefore l am in favor of Mr.. Blaine.
Because the dudes and the SnObS and
the Goldfish aristocratic boilers of the Re-
publican party have turned their backs on
Mr.. Blaine rush to his support. They
and have but little in common. He,
with his magnificent American policy. is
nearer to me than they. The instincts of
representation prompt me to quit their
society. 1 love him for the enemies which
he has made. Though born in Ireland, /
am an American first, last and all the way
through / am in sympathy with the toll
ing masses of this country, whether they
be of English, Irish, German or American
birth. | will, therefore, vote the Republic
can and not the Democratic, the Ameri-
can and not the English, ticket. am in
favor of Mr.. Blaine no less for his patriot
ism than for his personal qualities. He
has the wisdom, the experience and the
ability requisite to hold the helm of the
ship of state, now staunched as she is from
the leakages of the late war, and ready to
pursue career of commercial prosperity
in fields of profit and of gain hitherto mo-
nOpoliZed by England.
For the same reasons am opposed to
MI. Cleveland, because he is more popular
with the people of England than with the
working classes of this country. Let
others lick the candied sides of Mr.. Cleve-
land-of England's golden calf-I never
can become worshipper. :"

President seelye on Cleveland.

A Personal Letter from julius H. Seelye in the
Boston Journal.
Your letter of yesterday is received, in
which, referring to the recent charges
against the private life of Governor Cleve-
land, you ask if ''can continue to adyo-
cate his election In reply l would say
that so far from continuing" have not
yet begun to advocate it. l have ad-
vocated the laying down of certain prin-
ciples on which it has seemed to me i'm
pOrtant to take our stand, and have thus
far neither advocated nor opposed any par
ticular candidate except as the principles
themselves should do this. But if the
charges to which you refer are true, I do
not see how one with any self-respect can
vote for the man against whom they are
made, nor how party with any preten-
tions to decency can keep such a man in
nomination. To affirm that the offenses
are venial because they have not been
Haunted in the face of the public" or to
argue that since they affect only the can
didate's private life they are no bar to his
election to high public office, indicates, l
should say, a shocking debauchery of the
moral sentiment.

Gen. b. F. Butler is waiting patiently
for the formal letter of acceptance from
Governor Cleveland. That means that
Butler is going to pick to pieces the first
official document from the Democratic
candidate for President. Cleveland, how
ever, has gone off on his vacation to the
Adirondacks, and will not. it is presumed,
give his letter to the public for several
weeks. This will not discomfit Butler.
He has waiting and staying qualities, and
is in humor to use them. He means to
get even with the machine part of the
Democratic party, for the indignities and
insults heaped upon him at Chicago.

The Democrats were won't to cali Carl
Schurz the Flying Dutchman'' and de-
nounce him as a mercenary politician.
whose beliefs were controlled by the
amount paid for his speeches. Now he is
the pink of political perfection, and his
Brooklyn speech denominatsd 'Shurz' great
speech And all because he vhlifed Blaine
and piled up falsehood upon falsehood to
satiate his personal spite upon man who
knew how to take him for what he Was
worth. Schurzi is played out in American
politics. and it is appropriate that he
should cling to played out party.
