transmitted to the senate the corre-

ernnent and the governments of Colon
bia, Venezuela and Hayti, relative to the
putting into effect of what is known as
the reciprocity clause of the Mckinley

against the proclamation, and complains
that it is violation Of the treaty of 1916

A NERVOUS WOMAN.
What She Thought About
= Nerves.

The nerves are the most important part
OF the system. II they are weak, the per-
son Is run down, tired. lapBuid and does
not feel like doing anything. She can sleep
but little, her mind wanders, her appetite
is gone and what she can eat does her no
good.
This In just the condition Mrs. Milo
Griffith, q well-known lady of MoretowD,
VT, found herselfin and the reader WIN
see by the following letter that she knew
what to do to get well:
"About seven years ago." she says, 81
was taken with very severe nervousness
and could not work. / could but just drag
around. also had the asthma badly. /
was SO nervous, that at times i could not
lie in the house bet felt as though L must
60 out In the street and run.
az had no appetite and what did eat
laid heavily on my stomach and some
times distressed me severely. i had seen
DIR. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy advertised and heard 1t most
highly praised, and determined at once to
take this medicine which was so favorably
spoken Of by every body. had only taken

Bland Bill Came Near Being
Passed by the Senate.
HOUSE PASSES THE PENSION BILL,
All but One of the Amendments suf-
fered Defeat The Bill Carries Sf51, =
100000 with IL - Congressional
Topics Discussed.

WASHINGTON, March s.-An exciting
and interesting debate was precipitated
IN the senate by Mr.. Harris motion for
the second reading Of the seigniorage
bill.
This was opposed by Mr.. Sherman, who
moved its reference to the finance COM
mittee. and in the course of q strong
speech in opposition to the bill said that
its object was TO divert trust fund from
Its legitimate purposes-a thing which in
Ohio would be q .penitentiary offense.
His motion was defeated, however, and
the bill taken up as unfinished business,
and almost before any one was aware of
what bad happened 1t passed its third
reading and was on the point of passing
she senate. Then it's opponents recovered
from their surprise and endsavored to
prevent its passage, and on request of
Senator Sherman 1t went over until to-
day.
In the morning hour, Mr.. Morgan in
troduced resolution calling on the pres
ident for information as to the occupancy
of Bluefelds. Nicaragua, by the British.
This was agreed to. The house bill APP
propriating 200 for saving the Kear-
sarge was also passed. as did the bill per-
mitting General o. D. Howard to accept
from the French government the decora-
tion of the commander Of the Legion of
Honor.
Passed at Last.
After Eve days of debate the pension
appropriation bill, carrying sl5i, ,000, 900,
was passed yesterday afternoon without
division.
Throughout the debate there had been
-. a 4. HI L~-s n
bill, debate being on the one hand con-
Aned to an assault on the manner In
which the present commissioner of pen
sions had administered his Office, and his
alleged unauthorized suspension of pen
sions, and on tie other to defense Of the
attempt OF the commissioner to purge
the rolls Of those who were not entitled
20 place upon them. There were several
General Henderson; Mr.. O'Neil, in closing
She debate. and ex-Speaker Grow.
All the amendments to the bill save one,
shat of Mr.. Pickler to make the reports OF
the examining surgeons open to the in
were defeated. They all fell under points
Of order that they were not germane.
The one which attracted most attention
-
of the provision included In the act of last
December to prevent the suspension Of
any pension except on 30 days notice. so
as to permit the suspension in case Of
plain prima facie evidence that the PEN
sioner had procured his pension by
forgery, perjury or other palpable fraud.
This amendment was offered at the sug-
gestion of Commissioner Lochren himself,
who, under the opinion of the attorney
general, declared that II the act of last
Decem ber stood over, $500, 900 would have
TO be paid out to suspended pensioners,
who were proven beyond all question not
90 be longer entitled to the pensions they
had been drawing. Mr.. Outhwaite, the
chairman of the committee of the whole,
however, ruled the amendment out on
Mr. Martins point Of order that it was
not germane.

There are thousands of women suffering

CAUSE AND EFFECT.

Why did Rhode Island 90 Republi-
can by 5000 and more in 1894? Why
did it 90 democratic by almost 1920
in 1892? Why did the democratic plu-
rality fall to us in 1898?
We submit few figures in answer to
these questions.
The number of wage-earners EN-.
ployed in the factories of the State stood
in 1892 at 1909. This was the Nc
Kinley year, the unprecedented(y pros
porous year. the year in which work
men were told lit is the unions, not
the tariffs, that create high wages" and
were told also that to ''swipe the tariff
would be to hurt their employers des-
cribed by the democratic press "a
"robber barons," without hurting
themselves. Many of them believed
what they were told, and therefore the
State went democratic by 1920 plu-
rality.
But in 1898 the possibility of demo-
cratic tariff tinkcring became plain,
and so the number Of wage-earners em-
ployed became less, being but 1870.
This demonstration of the intimate re-
lation of protective tariff to the demand
for labor caused the wage arners to
put on their thinking caps, and the
democratic plurality of l,200 in 1892
fell to LIS in 1898.
In 1894 the dangerous possibility of
democratic tariff tinKering had become
dangerous probability, and the num-
Der of employed mill and factory opera
tives had fallen from 19, 0S9 in the great
Mckinley year of l S92 to 1896 in what
seemed likely to be the first disastrous
Wilson year. Every wage-earner was
alarmed, and SO there was a republican
plurality of 5000 registered at the cleo
tons of 1854.
All this is as plain as A b C.-[Intei
Ocean.
