COMMISSIONER of Pensions Lochren says of the bureaus letter to postmaster. which the republicans have printed as a campaign document: "In adjudicating a pension case it always has been the prac- tice of the bureau tc call on postmasters in tue locality where the affiant resides for Information as to his credibility. Post masters sometimes object to giving this in- formation. particularly when the informa- ton derogatory to the charactr of the at liant. without some assurance that their communications will be held confidential. It was in answer to an inquiry from Post master F. k SpauldIng. at Granville. Ohio, as to whether such information would be held as confidential that the letter which is being given publicity was written. N similar letter has been sent, out unless in answer to a similar inquiry" No com- ment is needed.

Racing by Electric Light.

Electric light racing. which has just been instituted near New York, is so we'll established in the west that no comment Is caused when so prominent a horse as DI. Rice, the winner of the Brooklyn Hand icap, is entered for ono of the night events. The system of lighting the tracks Is so complete that the race Is entirely in view all the way around the course. Be- sides punches of incandrscent electric lights, which hang directly over tho track at intervals of 20 or 30 feet, the corners or turns are additionally illuminated by pow erful scarchlights trained upon these spots from the roof of the clubhouse. The sport is run entirely in the interests of the book makers and bedrooms, and the betting inclosurcs are tho most comfortable and spacious sections of the grounds. The races arc sometimes run in Q driving rain storm, but the racegoers arc thoroughly protected by glass inclosed stands. Thor oughbred horses racing at n late hour of the night to music and with the rain drenching the electric light wires Is 0 spectacle that Europeans would regard as one of the most remarkable developments of sport in America. The latest proposi- tion in the west is to construct a building completely inclOsing n quarter mile track, so as to have racing at night throughout the entire winter.

DEBs THE COMMON ENEMY.

The Philadelphia Times keeps
pouring hot shot INTO President
Debs of the A. r. u, assigning to
him the responsibility for all that is
miserable, lawless and mean in the
present strike situation. In its ar
raignment of the A. h. U. chief
the Times says:
president Debs of the American
Railway Union, is common enemy
He is the enemy of labor; he Is the
enemy of capital; he is the enemy
of industry, Of commerce, OF finance
and of trade; he is the enemy OF
everything that improves the con-
dition of workingmen and that
tends to the general prosperity of
the country.
He has wantonly and arbitrarily
deprived scores Of thousands OF his
followers of their daily labor and
their daily bread when they had no
dispute whatever with their en-
ployers.
"By the interruption of trade
and traffic he has increased the cost
of nearly all the necessaries OF lie
to workingmen when they are de-
prived Of all sources of income by
the strike he has ordered,
"He has deprived labor of millions
of dollars that would have been
paid in wages during the present
year by the construction Of new
railways, which will be halted now
by the great uncertainty of the
cost Of operating them
"He has stopped foreign invest
ment in our railway securities for
the time, and probably precipitated
the return Of many millions of such
investments, to be paid from our
already scant supply of gold, there
by Gripping the whole business and
industry of the country
Gle has halted American invest
ment in industrial enterprises which
would give employment to work
men, All such investments are
readily hindered by uncertainty,
| and the disturbance in1labor circles

is one of the surest methods of
stopping investments which would
give employment to labor
He has opened the door for the
reduction of wages throughout our
entire railway systems. The rail
roads have been struggling against
most adverse tides during the last
year, and many have been COMPEL
ed to yield to the possession of re-
ceivers, but thus far they have al
most invariably maintained the wa
ges of their workmen. With loss
of million dollars a day imposed
upon the railways and those inter-
ested in their traffic, by strike
that is as costly as it is wicked and
revolutionary, the railways will be
compelled in the near future to re-
duce the wages of their employees
"Such is the entertainment to
which President Debs of the Amer
lean Railway Union is inviting his
deluded workingmen, and if they
shall not soon understand that he
is common enemy Of labor and ev-
erything that promotes the interest
Of labor, they must be strangely

well as to the interests of the whole

WASHINGTON NEWS.
Democratic Congressman, From Both
Houses, Confer on the
Tariff Bill.

Yesterdays Geographic news
from Washington announce that
the first day of the conference of
Democratic conferees of the two
Houses, of Congress, was without
practical results, or vigorous prog
gress so far as can be ascertained.
The conference continued for six
hours and was not interrupted even
for meals, but when an adjourn
ment was taken after 6 o'clock no
action on the bill had been agreed
to. The day was given to general
discussion on the principle differen-
ces of the two houses, The confer
ence on the part of the House
pointed out the radical change in
policy involved in the Senate's de-
parture from the free raw material
platform and from the ad valorem
system, and asserted that the Sen
ate bill was not all the country de-
manded in the way of tariff reform.
The Senate representatives replied
to the effect that it might be true
and it might be admitted by indi-
vidual members to have proved the
most radical bill that could be pass
ed in the Senate, and announced a
determination to stand for the bill
practically as it passed the Senate.
They asserted that to make any
concessions for free raw material
might endanger the passage OF the
bill when returned to the Senate,
just as to have stood by the House
bill in this respect in the beginning
would have probably prevented it's
passage in the first place. They
also contended that material re-
auctions or radical changes from ad
valorem to specific duties would de-
lay, if not endanger, final action
upon the bill.
The House members, while ad-
hitting the force of these sugges-
lions said the action of the House
might also prove uncertain.
There had been hope that the
committee would make it's first re-
port to the House not later than
next Friday and possibly by We'd
nesday on verbal changes to which
all could agree. But the confer
ence brought out that differences
were too wide to hope for this pre-
liminary report. On the contrary
it was practically determined toI
keep at work until all was finished
and there is little indication there
that it could be accomplished this
week
It was also practically concluded
not to have a meeting of the full
committee at which the Republican
members would be present until
the entire bill was finished. There
is, however, difference of opinion
on these points and this policy may
be changed.

Trains Running in Texas.

DALLAS, July 10.-The strike on
the Santa Fe in Texas has had no
material effect on passenger or
freight traffic. Trains arrive and
depart on time and the prospects
for quietude are bright. General
Superintendent Thorne, of the Tex
as and Pacific, has the personal as
surance from men in all depatt-
ments that that road will not be af-
fected. The mass meeting last
night by Debs' agent consisted of a
few hot speeches by labor leaders
but no definite action of any kind
was taken.

Healthy Children.

Come from healthy mothers. And
mothers will certainly be healthy if
they'll take Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. Nothing can equal it
in building up woman's strength,
in regulating and assisting all her
natural functions, 1t lessons the
pains and burdens Of child bearing,
supports and strengthens weak,
nursing mothers, and promotes an
abundant secretion ofnourishment.
It's an invigorating, restorative
tonic, soothing and bracing ner-
vine, and a guaranteed remedy for
woman's ills and ailments. In every
chronic "female complaint" or
weakness, if it ever fails to benefit
or cure, you have your money
back.
