Mexican Hero worship.

In a recent letter, on mexican char
acter beliefs and customs, the writer
says: In the history of Mexico and
the hearts of its people there exists
four grand heroes whose names, con-
nected with the progress of Mexico,
will unquestionably live for all time
to come. They are Cuauthcmoc, the
last of the Montezumas, to whom they
erected monument in tribute to his
bravery and heroic defense of his peo-
pie, even though he lost: Hidalgo, the
washington of Mexico" who on the
night of Sept. IS, 1910, proclaimed the
"grito," "Up with true religion and
down with false government" the dec
laration ofindependence and liberty
of Mexico from the rule Of Spain; Jua-
rez, reformer president oEthe French
intervention period; and last, that
leader of progress, the present exccu-
tive, President Porfro Diaz, under
whose wise, able and progressive adj
ministration the republic of Mexico
stands today as she never stood before
permanent, substantial government
enjoying the confidence Of lis people
at home and nations abroad.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
ative; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval Of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, yoll will net
accept any substitute if offered.

SENATOR BERRY.s ADDRESS.
His Appeal to the Democras in Con-
gress to Stand by Their Party
Pledges.

Among the number of strong, for
cible and eloquent speeches made in
behalf the "White Metal" IN the re-
cent better fight ON the silver ques-
tion, before the United States Senate.
none were more striking or mastery
than that delivered by the gallant
champion of silver coinage, from Ark
ansas, Hon. James IL. Berry. The Oc-
casion was the offering by Senator
Berry of an amendment reenacting the
Bland-Allison act of 1878. Laying
aside his crutches and supporting
himself ON his one leg-he left the
other on the battlefield of Corinth-
he turned and faced his Democratic
colleagues. Hiss peech was not long, but
it was the outpouring of his soul. He
urged the Democratic party to stand
by its pledges and at last unite upon
common ground. lie referred to his
willingness to enter Democratic
caucus of Senators in the interest of
party harmony in the hope that his
side of the chamber could have been
united But every offer of compromise
and consolidation had been rejected.
He and his associates would be forced
to tell their constituents and the coun-
try that Democratic President would
make no concession. They were fore
ed to submit. 1t was unfair and un-
just TO people who had SO uncom-
plainingly and steadfastly supported
the Northern and Eastern nominees
of the Democratic party; especially
when majority of the Democrats
were acting under the leadership Of
Mr.. Sherman who was backed by all
overwhelming majority "of our life
long enemies. Still, he said, he be-
lieved that the Democratic party Of
the South would rally together and
continue the fight until they could ac-
complish that which the people de-
manded.
The scene on the Democratic side,
as Mr.. Berry appealed for some recog-
milton for the Southern Democracy,
was remarkable. Every Democratic,
Senator sat with his eyes riveted
upon the speaker, drinking in the
burning words. The impression Gre
ated by the speech was SO marked
that Mr.. Voorhees, was compelled to
reply in person.

THE ARKANSAS sENAToRsHIP

The St. Louis Republic has devoted
considerable space recently in discuss
ing the approaching contest for United
States Senatorship in Arkansas and
concludes the fact TO be pretty well
settled that Senator Berry and Gov
ernor Fishback will be the leading, if
not the only, candidates in the field.
In one of the articles referred to the
Republic says;
AS members Of Congress will be
chosen at the same election, the Sena-
torial rivalry will not only add zest to
the campaign of 1894, but will bring
out full expression of Arkansas
Democratic sentiment on national
issues.
The Clarendon Sun says both the
Governor and the Senator favor the
election of United States Senators by
direct vote, so both Will doubtless ap-
prove this recommendation by the
Sun: "Let the people in their con-
ventions and primaries next year ex-
press choice for Senator at the same
time and just as they do for their gov
ernor, secretary of state or any Other
officer, and there will not be mem
ber of the general assembly who will
vote contrary to the wishes of hi
constituents"
Following up the action of loca
conventions and primaries, the ques
ton of the party's choice would b,
placed beyond doubt if the state con
vention should nominate the Senator
as was done by the Illinois convention
three years ago in naming Gen. Pal
mer as the Democracy's candidate.
The contest will be finally decidet
by the State Legislature, next fall.

TARIFF REVISION PROBABLE.
If Recess is Taken tho Ways
and Means Committee
Will Work On.

Latest advices from the national
Capital proclaim the existence of a
well defined rumor to the effect that
decided opposition has been manifest
to oppose = recess or adjournment,
both in the House aud Senate.
Upon inquiry it developed that such
a sentiment did not extend to the
House, although there is some talking
about taking recess until December,
when the tariff bill will probably be
ready to report. The men charged
with getting up the tariff bill are anx-
ious to have it in the House at an
early day, and wish to rush 1t through
with all possible speed. This has
been understood by Republicans, who
know it has been the desire of their
political opponents to have the tariff
bill 60 into effect as early as possible,
so they may go before the people and
explain it, The Democrats remember
very well when the Mckinley law
passed there remained but a month
for the people to see it work before
the congressional elections. They re-
member that month there was disas-
ter for the party in power. They
have no desire to repeat the expert
ment, and for that reason they are
making every effort to get the tariff
bill in operation with as little delay as
possible. Ifit be passed in time to go
into effect the last of May or not later
than the last of June and congress
should Immediately adjourn SO the
Democrats could at once go upon the
stump they think they will be able to
overcome, before the election, the
dissatisfaction that must necessarily
pievail after change in the tariff
policy.

George l.. Douglass, late speaker Of

LEGISLATIVE PROCEEDINGS.
Senate Passes the McCreary Bill,
Which Gives the Chinese An
other Chance to Register.

WASHINGTON, November 2.-Soon
after the Senate convened this morn
ing Mr.. Stewart introduced bill for
the free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer, and it was referred to the Finance
Committee.
Mr.. German Dem, Md offered
resolution authorizing the employ
ment during the recess" of certain
employees, and it was referred to the
Committee on Contingent Expenses.
The reading of the words "during the
recess" caused surprise, and it is gen.
orally expected that an adjournment
will soon follow.
Mr.. Gray moved to take up the
Chinese extension bill, but yielded to
the appeals of Mr.. Hoar, upon whose
motion the bill to relieve the sufferers
from the recent cyclone ON and near
sea islands by the coast of South Car
olina and Georgia was taken up.
Mr.. Cockrell objected to the third
reading of the bill. Mr.. Stewart
started to make a free silver speech
when the House concurrent resolution,
providing for an adjournment of Con-
gress on Nov. 3rd at 8 o'clock p. m,
was received.
In the Senate very little was done
in the way of transacting business un-
til 2:90 o'clock p. m., when the body
took up and passed, unamended, the
House Chinese bill, which extends for
six months the time under which
Chinese can register under the Geary
law and for the deportation after this
time of any Chinese laborer found in
the United States without a certifi-
cate of registration. 1t provides that
the word laborer shall be constructed
to mean skilled and unskilled laborers,
while Chinese merchant shall be a
Chinaman devoted exclusively to
mercantile pursuits and not engaged
as a laborer at all. 1t changes the
provisions of the Geary law concern
ing witnesses in that instead of re-
quiring a white witness, it requires
that the witness shall be other than
Chinaman. Pending the order of de-
portation the Chinaman to be deport-
ed cannot be bailcd. Certificates Of
registration are to contain the photo
graph of the applicant.

shylock Completely Distanoed.

A certain money loaded of Mier,
says contemporary, lately arranged
with customer to advance him 500
for three months at the modest rate
of so per cent month. He made the
customer sign receipt for $3.50, after
which he stated that ne intended to
hold on to the 500 for the interest
OH the loan, as it was his custom to
collect interest in advance, and that
be would he glad to have the other
400 just as soon as the custome could
make it convenient to hand 1t to him.
AS the customer naturally objected to
these various arrangements our mon
ey lender put the matter into the
hands of lawyer something on the
same order as himself. Consequently
the customer is likely to have to pay
not only the 1850 with interest pnt
the lawyers fees in addition.

the strain to both. Then the engineer
is given forty hours rest before he
goes out on the flyer again. This rest
is absolute, no work of any kind being
required of the engineer. Though the
average speed is forty-eight miles an
hour, the locomotive must at some
points be driven at so or more. The
physical strains on the men in the cab
at those bursts of speed is something
terrible. The engineer has fifty
things to look out for and is being
shaken and swayed all the time. The
fireman is constantly feeding the in
satiate furnace. On the run of the

coal are shoveled from the tender into
