CHANGES IN THE IMMIGRATION LAW ADVISED.

to-day transmitted TO the Home OF Representatives
the reports made TO him by the special IMMIGRATION
commissioners detailed to investigate the immigration
question in Europe. In his letter of transmission the
secretary that it Is his opinion. confirmed by the
results of the recent Investigation In Europe that any
additional legislation by Congress Nr the regulation
Of Immigration ought to cover the following features
The cubic air space for each immigrant passenger on
board ship ought to be largely increased. The present
head tax of 50 cents each upon alien Immigrants
should be abolished, and special license tax on the
steamships equal to ~ for each Immigrant substituted
owners agents should be required TO furnish bond
not less than $4,000 to return all allen immigrants
found within two years to have been landed contrary
10 the laws. some system OF preliminary inspection
OF immigrants before their embarkaton is absolutely
essential. IL such system oouM be placed under

American Cholera.

From the Daily Reueille, Whatcom, Wash.
ST. G. Burnett, the Democratic
candidate for sheriff, was taken vio-
lently i'll at Clearbrook. He had all
the symptoms of Asiatic cholera, and
for an hour or two it was feared he
would die. They finally gave him a
dose OF Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrh9a Remedy, which re-
vived him until a physician arrived. !"
That is precisely what the manufact-
urers of that medicine recommend
for cholera. Send for physician
but give their medicine until the
physician arrives. II cholera be-
comes prevalent in this country next
summer this preparation will be in
great demand because it can always
be depended upon. For sale at Eagle
