The Galesburg papers. and some
others. are worrying q great deal
over the action Of the lower house Of
congress the other day, knocking out
the appropriation in the postal bill
for special mail facilities between
Chicago and Council Bluffs. They
may possess their souls in patience,
10 the neighborly assurance offered by
the Monmouth Review. The appro-
priation in question has nothing to do
with the Burlington's fast mail. as
they suppose, and that is in no dan
ger Of being discontinued. Someone
proposed to the committee an appro-
priation for additional mail facili-
ties" between those cities by way Of
Burlington. and IL was incorporated
in the bill through q Chicago con-
gresham. He did not know what IL
was for. but thought 1t should 90
through because il named Chicago %
one Of the points to be benefited.

A PAMPHLET entitled The United
States Against Spain" has been pub
lished In Madrid. Its author is be-
lieved to be Senior Valera. some time
Spanish minister Mt Washington.
The work dilates upon the injustice
Of the American congress toward
Spain, and predicts that there will
DO a revulsion Of popular feeling in
the United States when the truth be.
comes known. The writer says he
expects favorable outcome Of the
trouble. He eulogizes the American
women, and declares that he admires
the American men, who, he adds,
'.are amiable and hospitable unless
they are blinded by self esteem"

The corrupt political instruction
would be: ''Stuf the pay rolls. "
This method prevailed under the last

Whist WIN DO IL?

Medical writer's claim that the sue
cessful remedy for nasal catarrh must
be non-irritating, easy Of application,
and one that will reach the remote
sores and liberated surfaces. The
history Of the efforts to treat catarrh
is positive proof that only one reme-
dy has completely met these condi-
tions. and that is Ely's Cream Balm.
This safe and pleasant remedy has
mastered catarrh as nothing else has
ever done. and both physicians and
patients freely concede this fact.
