PROTECTION ASKED.
The California Senators Will Stand
Out for Protection on Fruit.

Senator White, of California, is
busily engaged, among his col
leagues at Washington, in an effort
to secure protection for California
fruits, which the fruit growers Of
that State claim will be materially
injured if the fruit schedules of the
Mckinley bill are not allowed to
stand as they are. He is particu-
larly anxious to secure protection
for oranges, prunes and raisins, In
this effort the California senator is
receiving the assistance of the Flor
ida senators, who are very anxious
to have the duty on oranges in
creased. Senator White says the
fruits of California will be compel
ed to enter into competitor with
those of the Mediterrean and Mex
leo, and the result will be that for
eign fruits will make it Improbable
to raise fruits in California, Flori-
da men think the competition they
have with the West Indies will be
very damaging to the orange indus
try of that state. Senator White
is in full sympathy also with Sena-
tor Dubois, of Idaho, in his effort to
secure a duty upon silver-lead ores.
The Wilson bill allows these ores to
come in free if they are more, valu-
able for silver than lead, 1t is
claimed when car is loaded with
lead it is easy to put enough silver
on top of the load to make it ap-
pear more valuable for silver than
lead and the results is Mexican lead
is practically allowed to come in
free. This was the arrangement up
to the time the Mckinley bill went
into effect, Then a duty of $36 per
ton was put upon all lead ore, and
the result has been to restrict to a
considerable extent the importa-
tion of Mexican ore. Senator White
says this very fact shows this is a
good revenue article, and while he
thinks it may be well to reduce the
duty some, the senator thinks the
duty ought to be kept on in the in
terest of revenue.
Thus it would appear that an in
terested constituency, in several
states, whose industries are affect
ed, will have the effect of making
more than one opponent for the
Democratic measure of tariff re-
form, in the United States Senate.

UNION PACIFIC STOCK.
1t is Causing much Trouble In The
Committees of Congress.

The general impression in Legis-
lative circles, at Washington, is
that congress will have a hard
problem to solve, and that very
soon, in complications which have
arisen over the stock of the Union
Pacific railroad, now in the hands
of receivers.
During the past week there has
been much quiet discussion of the
matter, spurred on by the atten-
tion given to other embarrassments
in the railroad situations arising
from the management of roads by
receivers. Mr.. G. P, Huntington
has been in Washington several
days in consultation part of the
time with Senator Brice, chairman
of the Senate committee of Pacific
railroads, and also with other sena-
tors and representatives.
The result of his visit is the intro
duction of a bill for refunding the
debt of the Union Pacific. Part of
of Mr.. Huntington's time was spent
explaining his views to members
of the house committee on Pacific
railroads, This committee, howev-
er, seems to be disposed to permit
the senate to take the initiative in
proposing plans for adjusting the
Indebtedness of the railroad to the
government.
If it should GO to work independ-
emily to devise a scheme of it's own
trouble or differences would ensue
between the two houses, Repre-
sentative Reilly, of Pennsylvania
chairman of the house committee,
conferred frequently with Senator
Brice on the subject and is fully in
formed as to the views of the Sen
ate committee. Several schemes
for a settlement have been propos-
ed to the house committee, but no
one of them has yet received suffic-
lent backing to justify mention as
probability. Hon. Jerry Simpson,
Populist leader, says the govern
ment should buy the Union Pacific
outright and run it. "If we sue
ceed with it, it will be step toward
government control Of railroads."

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 perfect lax
ative; efectually 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.

ANNIE MAY ABBOTT.

This wonderful feminine phenom-
enon, commonly known as the
Georgia Magnet" " whose fame has
been heralded abroad throughout
the land by the press both of Eu-
rope and America, makes her initial
appearance before a Texarkana
audience, at Ghio's Opera House,
on Friday evening, the 18th, in

The following is one of the many

approached the question, he said, as
a business proposition.
The first section of the bill pro-
vided for the coinage of the imagi-
nary seignorage in the Treasury.
There had been purchaseds since 1890,
45O, 900, 600 ounces of silver for which
the government paid $464, 900, 600,
Its value now is but 295, 100000. In
other words, the loss of the govern
ment, if liquidated would be Sl6S,
100000. Yet, said Mr.. Combs, we
are asked in the face of that great
loss to presume that the govern
ment has made in the seignorage
since 1890 s55, 100000, l do not
know anything in the shape of a
business proposition more mon
strous. There are now $419, 900, 900
in silver. If the provisions of this
bill should be carried out this aggre-
gate of coined silver would be in
creased to 5000, OO9, 600, worth at
this time, in the markets of the
world but 1895, 900, 600.
After some further debrte on
general measures the House ad-
journed until the usual hour We'd

Nearing the Grave.

In old age infrmities and weak
ness hasten to close the gap be-
tween us and the grave. Happily
scientific research and pharmacal
skill have allied themselves in furn-
ishing us a reliable means of amel-
iorating the ailments incident to
declining years, and of renewing
waning physical energy, It's name
is Hostetters Stomach Bitters, a
widely comprehensive remedy in
disease, and an inestimable blessing
to the elderly, the feeble and the
convalescent. Rheumatic ailments,
trouble with the kidneys and lum-
bago are among the more common
ailments of the aged. These are
effectually counteracted by the Bit
tiers, which is likewise a prevention
and curative Of malarial complaints
dyspepsia, constipation and bilious
ness. 1t is highly promotive of ap-
petite, sleep and the acquisition of

A Dramatic Success.

''By Wits Outwitted," which will
be seen at Ghio's Opera House Sat-
urday Feb, II, comes preceded by a
record of success in the principal
eastern cities. The play presents a
bright and pretty plot, woven aud
interviewer in intricate meshes with
deft fingers in a most entertaining
and mastery manner manner
that at first qrovokes a smile, then
profound laughter, The scenes are
lain in Spain, and here and there we
see touches of the Spanish charac-
ter. A rich father who desires to
marry his young and handsome
daughter to an old slave trader is
outwitted by his own Vaccinations.
He plans an elopement for his neph-
ew with a wealthy but unknown
young lady. His CONSERVATION can
well be imagined when he discovers
too late that all his scheming for
his nephew has been aimed at
himself, as his daughter is the girl
in question.
The idea is a very funny one and
compels laughter of itself. The
company is an exceptionally capa-
Bile one.

of the measure, and Mr., Coombs, OF

Several times during the day Mr.

with a view to securing vote, but
objection was made. Over forty
members have asked for time to
speak, and it may be possible that
special order will be required to
bring the bill to a vote, but Mr.
Bland does not think this method
will have to be resorted to-
