I feel it but just to recommend your
valuable medicine, "Nolandine, for
any trouble caused by torpid liver, or
constipation produced by morphine or
any drug used to subdue pain. AS a

The above you are heartily welcome
to use in any way you deem best, and I
will personally tell any one whatit will
do, on application. Respectfully,

rapidly making their arrangements tor

as all wish but they will be enabled to
cultivate their crops. 1t is believed
that the system of farming in this
county will undergo a great change
this year. Diversfication will be the

WESTINGHOUSE RIVAL CITIES.
Seattle and Tacoma Not Satisfied Will
the Census Count.

A lively rumpus is being kicked up over the
census returns by the cities of Seattle and
Tacoma, Wash. The rivalry that exists between
these two places is something similar to that
which characterizes the relations OF st. Paul
and Minneapolis. The complaints that come
to the Census Office from Washington are much
the same as those from Minnesota, except that
there does not seem to be in the former case
any specific allegations of fraud Both
cities, however, want Superintendent Porter
to do something SO that, as Mr..
Porter expresses it, each city can have a popu-
lation OF 10000 more than the other. He says
that as far as he can judge this will be the only
method Of allaying the present disinterest
which the citizens of those cities seem to have
when they think about the population ascer-
tanned by the census enumerators Mr.. Porter
Is urged to do something, but he does not know
as yet exactly how to proceed in order to give
both cities exactly what they want, and he is
therefore not doing anything just now. In the
meantime he thinks that it is q just cause of
pride on the part Of those interested in the
prosperity OF the new state to know that the
population as ascertained by the enumeratOrs
is far in excess Of the estimates made by the
Census Office

THE KEYSTONE MILITIA.
The President lnspects Pennsylvania's
Troops.

President Harrison, accompanied by mem
bers OF his cabinet visited the camp of the
Pennsylvania National Guard yesterday at Mt.
Gretna and inspected and reviewed the troops.
He expressed himself as much pleased with
the movements that he saw. Arriving in the
special car Celtic, he was taken in charge by
Gov. Beaver and staff, Brig Gen Snowden and
Adjt Gen. Hastings and staff. Several troops
of cavalry escorted the party. Mr.. Harrison
was taken into the private equipage of Mil
lionaire Coleman, which was drawn by four
horses. Following this came in carriages Sec
rotary Proctor, Postmaster General Wanna
maker, Attorney General Miller and Maj Gen.
Schofeid.
Arriving at camp the party were saluted by
the firing OF twenty-one guns. The President
wasn't in very good humor. The smoke Of
gunpOwder, the booming of cannon and the
rain, which began falling about that time, all
seemed to annoy him. Under the dripping
canvas Of Gen. Hastings tent the President
held levee, the adjutant general acting as
master OF ceremonies and Introducing every
body. While the hand shaking was going on
four photographers crept up stealthily and
took several shots at the party with their cam
eras: The rain kept the party in the tent
until after o'clock, then they went to the
parade ground, where the troops were re-
viewed. The party returned to Washington
last night.

CONGRESSMAN BAKER BEATEN.
John Van VOOrhis Quietly Securing the
Delegates to the Convention.

A dispatch to tho New York Sun states that
Congressman Baker of the Rochester district
is likely to be left in the fight now going on for
the republican nomination. Wednesday night
one ward caucus was carried by his opponent,
Hon. John Van Voorhis, and last night four
more wards declared for Van Voorhis and in .
fifth the result is tie. Thus far Mr.. Baker
has not carried single caucus. Mr. Van voor-
his was smart enough to mako move that
will probably give him the nomination, but he
may lose the election, for there are Just
about enough republicans who don't like his
methods to decide the election. Van Voorhis
quietly went from member to member of the
county committee and told each that the new
election law made An early convention desira-
BILE. When he had secured pledges from q
majority Of the committee the chairman, one
of his personal friends, called q committee
meeting for last week (Thursday) ''to consider
the new elscting law and for other purposes. Z"
The ''other purposes" were the calling Of q
convention on August a. The election law
was not considered. Caucuses were called at
once, Van Voorhis had his traps ready and the
, result is now becoming manifest. Congress
man Baker is expected in Rochester today, but
will probably be too late to save himself. The
district is q close one, and it is generally be-
heved that State Senator Donald McNaughton
or Col. Greenleaf will receive the democratic
nomination and be elected.

THE FEDERAL ELECTION BILL
How It Has Been Modified by the Sen.
ate Committee

The republican members Of the Senate com.
mittse on privileges and elections have agreed
upon form in which the Lodge federal cleo
lions bill win probably bs laid before the full
committee and before the republican caucus in
the near future. The bill has been much sim
plifed and has been. moreover, materially
modified by the republican members of the
Senate committee. The print of the bill, as
ordered yesterday. does not represent the final
action OF the republicans 1t may be modified
at future conference or it may be modified in
caucus. As agreed to thus far the bill does not
contain tbs domiciliary visit feature and the
jury feature, which were 20 Objectionable to
the democrats in the House of Representa-
fives aud the conferees have modified very
distlnctly the character of the offenses under
the law and the punishments prescribed for
them. Most OF the work on the substitute has
been done by Senator Hoar, the chairman OF
the elections committee. who has taken par
ticularly active interest in the subject.
The provision OF the House bill for q house
to house inspection to verify registration lists
was strongly opposed during the debate in the
House on the ground that it allowed an inter-
ference with the private rights of citizens. The
provision, however, 10 incorporated in the fed
eral supervision law now in force and was
simply transferred to the new bill
The provision concerning the selection Of ju-
rors for the trial Of persons charged with vio-
lation of the election laws was also bitterly OPP
posed in the House. This section is entirely
new and wholly changes the present manner OF
selection. The current federal supervision Law
provides that the selection of jurors to try
cases in which violations Of the election laws
are charged shall be made by United States
commissioner and by a reputable citizen, who
must, however, be of a diff srsnt political faith
from the commissioner Esch of these parties
selects six jurors. and tbs defenders of the new
bill claimed that in nearly every csse the jurors,
cally, voted for acquittal or conviction accord
ing to their political faith AMI not according to
the merits Of the case, The section Of the House
bill intended to replace this provides that the
jurors in each case shall De selected by board
OF three jury commissioners, to be appointed
by circuit judge. The selections are to be
made irrespective Of race, color or politics.
This was inserted in the bill by the republican
caucus of the House,
