ALEXANDRIA, VA.
FRIDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 10.

THE REPUBLICANS in the U. .. House %
Representatives are too much under the ln'
Auencs of railroad corporations to be favor
able to Dir. Reagan's interstate commerce
bill. Finding that the provisions OF tha'
bill would probably be adopted by tho
House, they injected into it the negro ques'
ton, hoping thereby to deprive 1t OF us
Southern support; and they would nave
succeeded had not proper of-ets to their
amendments been adopted. As it is they
have weakened it considerably. But as the
provisions restricting the powers OF the
railroads yet remain in the bill, no matter
what race amendments may be made to 1t
in the House, it is almost impossible for it
TO 90 through the Senate, for nearly all the
republican majority of that body are per-
sonally interested in railroads, and their
past acts show plainly enough that between
themselves and the public they will always
take care of the former.

Madame Tussaud's Wax Works

For many years attracted the attention OF
thousands of visitors TO London. Although
these wax works were famous all over the
world, they were not pleasant to look at.
The faces of the persons they represented
had an unhealthy and bilious look, just
like those hosts of people We see along the
streets every day. Why do people look
this way? Those who lake Browns Iron
Btters have no such appearance. Browns
Iron Bitters renews the blood, reforms the
disordered liver, correcs the action Of The
heart, and produces general heath, and re.
stores the skin to vigorous action.
