WASHINGTON, Feb. l2.-The Hawaiian
controversy occupied the principal time
of the senate Monday. Senator Gray
Del.) opening his argument in defense of
the policy of President Cleveland. His
speech vas devoted principally to an at
tempt to prove the completely of Minis
ter Stevens with the revolutionists. He
did not conclude his speech. An inter-
esting incident Of the session was the
presentation by Senator Cullom of a Pc
tition signed by 10000 woolgrowers Of
the west protesting against the wool
schedule in the new tariff bill.
Senator Pettigrew presented a resolu-
ton directing the secretary of agricul-
ture to report to the senate the amount
of wheat in the country March 80 last,
the total yield and the amount now in
the country.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.-The Hawaiian
resolution was again the subject Of dis
cussion in the senate Tuesday. Senator
Gray resumed his argument in support
of the presidents policy and reiterated
his charges that the revolutionists were
dependent on the United States and
forces for support and protection and for
the m~aintensce of their government.

Senators Quay and Teller Discuss the Bond
Issue Question.
WASHINGTON. Feb. THE bill repeal
ing in toto all federal laws regulating
the control of congressional elections has
passed both houses Of congress and only
waits the signature Of President Cleve-
land to become a law. After several
weeks of discussion the senate Wednes-
day finally came to a vote on the house
bill repeating the federal election laws
and 1t passed by a vote of 80 ayes to 90
nays.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.-By a vote of l75
to 81 the house Wednesday adopted the
resolution condemning Minister Stevens
and sustaining the Hawaiian policy Of
Mr.. Cleveland.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.-The right of
the secretary to issue bonds at this time
was again the subject Of controversy in
the senate Thursday. Senator Stewards
resolution came up under the rule, and
Senator Buffers motion to refer it to the
judiciary committee was the only oppo-
sition. Senator Quay took a decided
stand in favor Of disposing of the matter
in open session, instead Of giving it q de-
cent burial by referring 1t to committee
from which it would never emerged, and
intimated Senator Sherman gave to the
country An apparent justification Of Sec
rotary Carlisle's action when the Ohio
senator clearly knew it to be illegal. A
strong speech was made by Senator
Teller, in which he deprecated the de-
plorable financial condition of the coun-
try, and called upon his Republican col
leagues to bear their fair share Of the re-
sponsibility of the causesa and not attempt
to throw upon the Democratic party the
entire burden Of devising remedies for the
impending panic. The question went
over.
The senate then resumed its old prac-
tice of a~djourning from Thursday until
Monday.
WASHINGTON, Feb. s.-The deadlock
on BANDS silver seigniorage bill was
broken after four hours of flibuster-
ing Thursday, after which by a vote of
100 to 40 the house carried Mr.. Bland's
motion to going into committee Of the
whole for consideration of his bill. The
eastern Democrats and the great mass of
Republicans made a determined opposi-
ton. On the final vote 100 Democrats
and all the Populists voted with him,
while 20 Democrats joined with the Re-
publicans in refusing to vote. 1t is thor
oughly understood quite a number of
Democrats who voted with Mr.. Bland
were in favor Of certain notifications of
the bill, although they would not carry
their opposition to the extent Of voting
against consideration. 1t IL also well
known the administration u opposed to
the bill in its present form.

bill, the speakers being Messrs. Bland,
G. W. Stone, McKeighan, Harter, and
Kilgore. 1t is expected a vote on the
bill will be reached Tuesday and MI.
Bland is confident it will pass.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-Today was
set aside for eulogies upon the life
of the late Representative O'Neill
(Pa.), and Senator Stanford Cali,
but IN account of the death Of
Mr.. Houck CO.,, that order was vacated
and the house adjourned out Of respect to
the memory Of the dead Ohio representa-
tive.
WASHINGTON, Feb. IA new turn
was given Monday to the silver discus.
sion in the house by Mr.. BANDS an
nouncement that he would move at Q
later day to amend the pending bill 30
that silver certificates would be issued
only a fast rs silver dollars were coined
with the added authority to the secretary
Of the treasury to issue the certificates in
advance of the coinage If he so desired.
This change is designed to overcome one
of the main objections of Secretary Car
isle to the bill. This objection is shared
by many members Of the house to such
an extent that the passage Of the seig-
niorage bill was in doubt. The change
now proposed by Mr.. Bland obviates the
objections 80 that the passage of the seig-
niorage bill is regarded as certain.
On motion Of Mr.. Perkins a bill author.

opposition. Several times MI. Bland at
tempted to reach Al agreement for clos
ing general debate, with a view to secur-
ing a vote, but objection wa made.
Over 40 members have asked for time to
speak and it may be possible a spe-
cial order will be required to bring the
bill to a vote, although Mr.. Bland does
not think this method will have to be re-
sorted to.

DRURY.-

DRURY, July lO-The people of
Drury and surrounding country are
fast coming to the realization of the
fact that Rock Island affords the best
market for the disposal of produce,
ETC., as it was only the other day
that James Hayes was unable to sell
a load of wool at Muscatine. He
could not dispose of it at any price,
as there were no merchants OF that
place interested in such merchandise,
and later he sold the wool on the
Rock Island market at a very fair
price. Rock Island is conveniently
near, her varied markets and indus
tries are numberless and her business
men are pretty good people to tie to.
Last week Gus Anderson lost his
barn and sheds, and hay. corn and
feed to the amount of $500 by fire.
Mr.. Anderson has the sympathy of
the entire neighborhood, and he
should not be backward in his de-
mands for any reasonable favor. as
his friends would be only too glad to
assist him.
j. IL. Foster boasts of having the
best corn in Rock Island county.
and, while not betting man, he is
willing to bet ice cream at 10 cents A
throw that he has that very corn.
No tips 90. but it is safe to assert
that Mr.. Foster would have the long
end Of q wager.

1t takes 4 long while for beer keg to
wear ont. 1t has tough constitution
and is protected from internal decay by
a coat of pure and hard pitch. The pitch
used on the modern key is much superior
10 that formerly used. 1t is clear, taste
less and tough. An empty beer keg will
stand great many hard knocks before
the pitch scales off.
The kegs Wear out, when they do
wear. externally, They are wet and dry
alternately, and this promotes decay
Then they get great deal Of unneces-
sary banging around between the time
they leave the brewery and are brought
back again. Everybody, from the driver
and railroad and steamboat hands down
to the barkeepers. seems to think the
kegs are indestructible. a whole car
load of empty kegs Is frequently thrown
from the car down 10 the ground. A
single empty key is often thrown feet
1t really isn't necessary TO make the
kegs as heavy, SO far rs the keeping of
the beer is concerned. They began by
being made heavy in the old DAYS. The
brewers then deemed it absolutely rec
uisite to make them that way to with
stand the pressure Of the beer The very
fact that they We're made heavy and
clumsy subjected them to rough han
ding. Now they have TO be made heavy
and extra material has TO be put into
the heads and slaves simply because of
this handling and not from any danger
on account of the internal pressure of
the beer. Chicago Tribune

What Will DO 1T.

Medical writer's claim that the sue
cessful remedy for nasal catarrh
must be non-irritatln@. easy of APP
plication, and one that will reach the
remote sores and liberated surfaces
The history of the efforts to treat
catarrh is proof positive that only
one remedy has completely met
these conditions. and that is Ely's
Cream Balm. This safe ard pleas
ant remedy has mastered catarrh as
nothing else has ever done. and both
physicians and patients freely con-
ccde this fact. Our druggists keep it.
