in this city since he had been q member of this
House.
The new line Of cars will give members of
Congress an opportunity to reach the public
buildings by street car instead of by cabs. The
stock had not been 'watered." Not single
officer Of the road draws salary. The road is
not paying dividends, and it is believed will
not pay any for the next five years.
ONE MANS OBJECTION.
Mr.. Heard said the only objector in this city
to the road was one man living near the Capitol
on New Jersey avenue, one block distant from
the road, who thought the cars would make
too much noise; Directing, too, notwithstand-
ing the fact that he was located within one
square OF o steam railroad.
.And within one square OF this hall" said
Mr. Buchanan Of New Jersey.
When the laughter caused by this remark
| had subsidized Dir. Seerley Of Iowa said he did
! not assert that this bill is suspicious. but he
wanted more time to consider it. To that end
he moved to postpone further consideration Of
! the measure for two weeks.
| He demanded the previous question on his
motion to postpone, notwithstanding Mr..
Hemphilrs protest against his licking snap
| Judgment on the committee" and shutting off
| debate. The motion for the previous question
was voted down. Mr.. Butler Of Iowa then
made motion to postpone, which also was de-
feated, the House refusing to even order the
| yeas and nays.
Mr. O'Neill Of Massachusetts, offered an
amendment, which was accepted by Mr..
Heard and subsequently, agreed to by the
House, providing that the increased capital
stock of the company shall be used to redeem
the bonds which have been heretofore issued
| by the company to take care of the indebted
ness already incurred and STIMULATING that no
additional bonds shall be issued without the
consent Of Congress.

Two Narrow Escapes.

Twice i'll his experience has John Z.
Obermeyer, Of Chicago, owed his life 10
the practice Of carrying papers in his i'll
side pocket. The first time was on a
battlefield III the wal Of the rebellion.
Then the muster roll Of his company of
the Eleventh Pennsylvania volunteers
stopped a musket ball fired at random
from the enemy's lines. The second
time was on Monday, when a bullet
from a 38-caliber revolver, fired only six
feet distant, and aimed deliberately at
his breast, failed to penetrate an en-
velope filled with bank bills and "a pass
book in his inside vest pocket.
After this second event Mr.. ODER
meyer, it is said, looked coolly at the
would be assassin, and called him a
coward, and invited him to shoot a sec
Ond time, but the latter stood for a
moment irresolute, then, with his hand
trembling, laid his revolver ON the desk
and surrendered to the police.-Phila-

that they have nothing to do with the

Soda Water Not So Much in

An up town dry goods store last sum
mer tried the experiment of giving soda
water to its patrons free. An enormous
fountain, well equipped for service, was
placed in the back part of the store and
on each hot day half a dozen attendants
were kept busy serving a clamorOus,
thirsty and never diminishing crowd.
One day upward of 1000 glasses Of soda
water We're drawn from that free foun-
tain. This year the firm charges three
cents a glass for its soda water, and as
a result the patronage has fallen off to
a remarkable extent. On two very hot
days a fortnight ago, although the large
store was we'll filled with customers, the
soda fountain was at no time overworked.

Who Is to Blane3

EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: W. A. Sanders,
in your issue of July 18th, announces a
discovery which is of the first importance.
if true. 1t is that "the Alliance leaders,
are to blame for the great disparity in
prices of farm, orchard and vineyard
products between the producer and the
consumer. If we can only find the right
party to assess our troubles to, that party
or person will smoke for it. Our Demo-
cratic friends down this way credit eyery-
thing in that line to the Mckinley bill.
our Republican friends set it down to the
"cowardly Democratic Majority; the
cold-water party says liquor is the prime
agent Of the devil III the business; and the
mystical brethren of the Alliance have
pitch on heating for Senator Sherman
and the railroads; and here comes Mr..
Sanders and heaps the whole load on the
Alliance leaders. 1t is enough to make
man adopt the motto suggested some
time ago by Ambrose Bierce: 'sTo hell
with everything!u Still they cannot ali
be responsible. Suppose all the Alliance
leaders were hung, would that adjust the
price of that smoked beef and those
rais1ns? Is 1t not just possible that Mr..
Sanders himself could help matters ont a
little instead of kicking because Others
have not done their duty?
Reform is splendid institution, and
like charity, it should begin at home:
and energy wasted in misdirected kick,
ing does no one any good. What we
need is to find out where the wrongs are
and apply the remedy, if within orr
power; or if the wrong is without rem
edy, pass it by and waste no nerve force
on it. MELVIN SNoru

THE HOP CROP
An Encouraging Outlook for Cali
fornia Growers.

An Encouraging Outlook for Cali
fornfa Growers.
William Darby, hop buyer for Bass &
Co., Limited, of Burton-on-Trent, Eng
land, probably the largest brewers in the
world, said to San Francisco reporter
on Wednesday:
81 don't know where we are to get our
hops this year. For many years Ane
County of Kent has been the chief point
of hop production in England, but except
last year. when the crop was very large.
the yield has become steadily smaller.
compelling US to use hops grown in Ger
many and other countries in Northern
Europe. American hops contain larger
percentage of the extract than the Eu-
ropean variety, but until quite recently
they were carelessly cured and badly
packed, and consequently sold for far less
than they would had proper care been
exercised.
This year the English and German
hop crops are failure, owing to too
much heat early in the growth of the
plant and thea wet weather just as the
blossoms came. The hop louise, too, after
an absence OF year or two, reappeared,
SO that the crop this year is the smallest
for some years.
in the Eastern States the intensely hot
weather that has prevailed for weeks has
done much damage, while in Eastern
Oregon, where some of the best hops in
the country are grown, the cold, dry
weather of the last few weeks has greatly
retarded the growth and development of
the plant. l expect to see higher prices
for hops than have ruled for some years. "

Opening the Canal.

The most acceptable proposition that
can be made to persons troubled with
chrouic constipation, is TO open that i'm
portant canal-the bowels. That PROPOSE
ton can be carried out by the parties
interested if they resort to Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, the most effective, most
genial Alternative extant. It is the mis-
take OF many otherwise sensible people,
that they resort to drastic or, in other
words, violent purgatives. Without ex-
aggeration, this is highly injurious, since
such indictments weaken the bowels
besides convulsing both them and the
stomach with pain. Relief sought from
the bitters comes freely enough, but they
never produce pain, excessive action or
subsequent weakness of the bowels.
Liver and kidney trouble. malaria. dys-
pepsia, lack Of stamina and tendency to
rheumatism, are remedied by this pleas
ant substitute for drenching cathartlcs.

The Redding Lynching,

EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: In your paper
yesterday you had a good deal to say
about the lynching of the Ruggles
brothers. The fact is this county has
stood this stage robbing and shooting
involved this county in a debt of 500. 900,
and the better class of people and tax
payers thought it was time to put stop
to the business. It was no bloodthirsty
mob that did the business. but cool, de-
llberate people, who are determined to
crush out this stage robbing before it
bankrupts the county, and the perpe-
and it would not be healthy for anyone
to come here and try to hunt them out as
you suggest, and in the future stage rob-
lbers had better give this county wide
berth. ONE OF THE BOYS.
