WASHINGTON LETTER.

policy, aud humiliated in the eyes ofshis

That Terrible Scourge,

Fever and ague, and its congener,
bilious remittent, besides affections of
the stomach, liver and bowels, pro-
duced by missmatic air and water, are
both eradicated and prevented by the
use of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a
purely vegetable elixer, indorsed by
physicians, and more extensively used
as a remedy fer the above class of dis
orders, as well as, for many others,
than any medicine of the age. A Ian
guild circulation, torpid state of the
liver, a want of vital stamina, are con-
ditions peculiarly favorable to malarial
diseases. They are, however, surely
remedied by the great preventive,
which, by invigcrating the system and
endewing 1t with regularity as well as
vigor, provides it with resisting
power, which enables 1t to Withstand
disorders, not only of a malarial type,
but host of others to which feeble
and Ill regulated systems are subject.
The bitters are q safe as well as
searching eradicant, and have widely
superseded that dangerous drug, qui-
nine, which palliates but does not
eradicate malaria.
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1893-06-22
Work of Distribution

The work of registering the In
dians by blood in the Choctaw Nation
preparatory to paying out the leased
district money, has already begun
The work will be done at the County
seat of each county in the Nation and
all must go there to get their names
enrolled. When the enrolment is
completed, which will be on or about
July 1st, the list will be counted and
the amount divided pro rata among
them. Treasurer McCurtain announ-
ces that no money will be paid on Or
ders or powers of attorney, but must
be paid directly to each Indian or his
guardian. The Indians are so eager
to get their money that they are going
to the court grounds in large numbers.
1t is pretty evident that there are
more Choctaws by blood than has
been calculated upon. While the full
bloods are steadily losing, the mixed
bloods are rapidly growing in num-
bers. There are many people in the
Choctaw nation who look as white as
any Caucasian that are all the way
from half breeds down to the faintest
trace. When the enumeration is conl-
pleted there will be fully 10000 Choc-
taws. This will make the amount per
capita that each one is to receive con-
siderably under $1O0, instead of over
that amount, as many seemed TO think.
Still there will be good deal of mon
ey turued loose in that country
enough to help them great deal, to
enjoy themselve and to get skinned
by crafty spectators.
The plan of causing each person to
60 to the court ground to register Ia
causing some dissatisfaction, as IL
works hardship on great many by
forcing them to ride as much as fifty
miles. However, they will all be en-.
rolled.

charge. He shows that forged and
fraudulent evidence, the character of
which was manifest on its face, has
been accepted in many cases as the
basis of pension allowance.
In word, Mr.. Burnett gives SAM
pies of every form Of fraud and wrong
that has ever been charged. He
proves beyond question that the PEN
sion rolls have been disgraced by the
admission to them of deserts, cheats
and impostors to an extent which
will probably cost the Government
from $S0,0OO,OOO to $50,000,0O0 a
year.
OF course no honest man, and espec-
tally no patriotic old soldier, wants
this robbery of the Government to
continue. No man who respects the
blue uniform and honors the soldiers
of the Union wants these rascals long
er to stand on the rolls in company
with the honorable men who did bat
tie for the Republic, The imperative
duty of the bureau, now that it is in
honest, patriotic hands, is to overhaul
the whole list and strike from it the
name of every pretender and cheat.
So much is due to the country. So
much is especially due to the honora-
BILE pensioners.

port Ark, was the marriage, in that
city on wednesday evening, the goth
inst, of Miss Lille Givens to Mr..
w. A. Billingsly. The cermony took
place at st. PauPs Church, and was
witnessed by large assemblage of
friends of the contracting couple, COM
prising the flower of social life in that
city. The bride, lovely woman, as
good and as she ia beautiful, was be-
comingly gowned in white crepe de
chene. A large white hat crowned
her shapely head, undressed kid
gloves covered her hands, her shoes
were of the same material. The cere-
mony was performed by Right Rev.
Bishop Pierce, of the Arkansas Do
cease. The bride is one of Newport's
fairest and best, and the groom is the
Cashier of the Jackson County Say-
ings Bank. Soon after the marriage
Mr. and Mrs. Billingsly left for Mem
phis on brief wedding trip,
The bride will be remembered in
this city as Miss Lille Givens, who
graduated from Draughon's College
at this place more than year ago.
During her stay in Texarkana as a
STUDENT in this college, Miss Givens
made many warm friends and sincere
admirers, endearing herself to all with
whom she came into contact, by her
many womanly charms. The DEMO
GRAFT joins with the many friends of
the lovely bride at this place, in ten
dering congratulations to the happy
pair and wishing for them full real
ization oflife's choicest and fairest an.
ticipations of domestic joys.
