WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From our Regular Correspondent

(From our Regular Correspondence
Washington, ID. y. July 10
speaker Reed is getting much
credit for the victory won By the
House Conferences on the tarih
bill, in compelling The Senate
COnferees To abandon the Seuate
sugar schedule aud accept what
is practically that of the original
Diugiey bill. There Is no question
shat so ne OF the credit for this
result belongs TO Mr.. Reed and biz
colleagues of the House, who de
cIared early and often that thu
Senate sugar schedule was entirely
400 favorable to the trust, and
would not be accepted by the
House, even If the tariff bill failed
or Congress was compelled to re-
main in session all summer. Thell
action was faclOr..,an important
ons~.but IA greater factor was
working against Senate sugar
schedule, Public opinion, regard
less of politics, was against II
from the day its contents were
known, and that was really what
made the Senate conferences ser
render. Many Senators caughI

Although few dissatisfied
Senators have said that they in
tended to delay action by the
Senate on the tariff conference re

Senators and r representatives are
the most tired or all, and they are
going home very noon.

The large crop OF wheat with
the prospect Of good prices has to
some extent checked the calamity
howlers. The injury that has been
done the country by the continual
bowling Of these disreputable papers
is difficult to calculate. They are
a species of ghouls that love to feed
upon the ca'amites Of the public.
They care not what damage they
NAV do, so long as they are trying
to get some political advantage by
their bowling. They rejoice in
disasters of all kinds. They dis
count all reports Of improved bust
ness, and would feign dlsown the
blessings which a kind Providence
bestows upon the people. Should
the present indications of advance
prices for wheat and cotton be
realized their occupation would be
DESTROYED and the hypoc ricy II their
meanings would be recognized by
all classes.
The country has repeatedly
passed through such crises, and in
every instance prosperity has
followed depression. Our people
have much for which they should De
willing to express their gratitude
We have good crops and an album
dance of good things; we have a
section of country that is almost
without its equal, and yet these
calamity howlers, Of both parties
would destroy every prospect Of
improved business, in order to find
fault with the administration.
In prosperous times business is
conducted upon the confidence OF
one man in another. Once destroy
this confidence, and our factories
arc idle. the demand for our pro
ducts ceases and insolvency stares
as in the face. In spite OF these
facts the calamity bowlers for the
Last five years have been endeayor'
ing to destroy this mutual confidence
and the more ignorant among
them have ridIculed the idea that
confidence was an essential element
in successful business. The people
are beginning to place upon their
utterances "a true value, and 10 spite
of these howlings, are looking for
more prosperous times. While Ill
advised legislation may retard
business, we have every reason to
believe that we are now entering
upon brighter and better business
conditions.

A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About the New Discovery
for Curing Dyspepsia.

The Rev. +. l. Bell, a highly esteem
ed minister residing in Weedsport,
Cayuga Co, N. Y, i'm recent letter
writes as follows: There has never
been anything that l have taken that
has relieved the Dyspepsia from which
| have suffered for ten years except
the new remedy called Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets Since taking them l
have had no distress at all after eat
ing and again after long years CAN
SLEEP WELL. Rev. f, l. Bell, Weeds
port, N. Y, formerly Idalia, Colo"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a re-
markable remedy, not only because it
Is certain cure for all forms of indi-
gestion, but because II seems to act as
thoroughly in old chronic cases of Dys-
pepsia as well as in mild attacks OF in
digestion or biliousness. A person has
dyspepsia simply because the stomach
is overworked, all it wants is harm
less. vegetable remedy to digest the
food and thus give it the much needed
rest.
This is the secret of the success of
this peculiar remedy, No matter how
weak or how much disordered the di-
gestion may be, Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will digest the food whether
the stomach works or not. New life
and energy is given not only to the
stomach but to every organ and nerve
in the body. A trial of this splendid
medicine will convince the most skep-
tical that Dyspepsia and all stomach
troubles can be cured. The tablets are
prepared by the Stuart Chemical Co,
Of Marshall, Mich, but so popular has
the remedy become that Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets can now be obtained at
any drug store at so cents per package.
