the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated eondi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that tits the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
eli important, in order 10 get its bene-
fetal effects, To note when you pnr-
chase, that yon have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists
If in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed III

Emil Lund, a laborer employed at the
Woodwork elevator at Minneapolis,
was suffocated while working in bran
bin, 1t was in the province of his du-
ties to go down into a bran bin to clear
the fues whenever they should become
clogged. The day of his death he was
called upon to attend to fue, and he
descended ladder into the bin. The
bran, in the meantime, continued to
run from above into the bin. Lund
stepped off the ladder and sank in the
soft bran, and before he could be res
cued was covered by that coming from
above. Another workman witnessed
the accident, but the running stream
could not be stopped in time to prevent
Lund from meeting his death by suffo-
cation.

St. Paul, March 29.-The house (the
senate not being in SESSION. furnished
quite war episode on Saturday. One
of the somewhat famous bills of the
session has been the one appropriating
sum of money to enable the survivors
of the First Minnesota to attend the
dedication of a monument to their
fallen comrades at Gettysburg, Pa,
next July. Bills were introduced in
both branches appropriating $1,000
| and the house the bill for that sum;
the senate cut the appropriation to
S., 600 and passed in that shape. The
house had the senate bill under consid-
GRAFTON Saturday. In the original bill,
Judge VIM. LOchren was named as one
of three commissioners to disburse the
appropriation, but the committee on
military affairs had stricken Lochren' s
| name from the bill and substituted
| Adjutant General Muehlberg. The
ground given was that Lochren was
! not with the regiment at the battle,
but in reality it was based on his
| course as commissioner of pensions.
| Everyone who has read Judge Loeb
ren's sketch of the. First Minnesota in
minnesota in the Civil War;" pub
lished by the state, knows that Loeb
rem was at the battle Of Gettysburg,
but the house military committee
| seemed to think otherwise and struck
his name out Of the bill. Saturday
morning Judge Hicks went to the adj
jutant generals office to get some data
to show that Judge Lochren was at
Gettysburg and became involved with
Assistant Adjutant General H. T. Be-
vans over the subject. Judge Hicks
intimated that Bevans had circulated
the report against Judge Lochren, and
| the lie passing between them blows
were exchanged but no serious dam
age was done to either party before
! they were separated. This episode
added decided zest to the debate in the
house when the bill came up in COM
mittee of the whole few hours later,
and there was lively debate when the
| question of restoring Judge Lochren's
name was considered. Judge Hicks.
Messrs. Donnelly, Johns, and Snyder
led in favor of the restoration, while
Messrs. Abbott, Sloan and Boutwell,
opposed it. In the end Judge Lochren
and Col. Colville were added to the
| commission and the bill recommended
to pass.
The house put in full working day
though only eight unimportant meas
ures were actually passed. A large
number of bills were considered in
committee of the whole and 33 were
reported back from comm ittees, some
Is of them being for Indefinite post
ponement. It was big cleaning up
day of minor matters and cleared the
way for the wind storm tomorrow over
the veto of the Hastings asylum bill.

citizens OF Anoka had voluntarily con-
tributed $4,000 to aid in that pur-
chase. The action of the commission
was approved by the district court of
Ramsey county and this decision was
affirmed by the supreme court. The
Legislature investigated and found
nothing improper or illegal had been
done by the com mission. The bill
purchasing the Hastings site would
annul the work of the commission and
besides, as Anoka has already received
SIS, 900, 1t would involve another ex-
penditure of a similar sum which in
view of the hard times is not wise.
For these reasons the governor refused
his signature. The bill was made the
special order for next Tuesday after
noon when an effort will be made in
the house to pass it over the veto.
The bill passed the house original
~ by nine less than two-thirds vote,
and that will not be sufficient to pass it
over the governors objections The
general belief now is that it will fail
of passage. The senate had two more
than two-thirds, but the house must
keep ell it has and gain nine more.
Unless the house does this the bill will
never reach the senate. r@

money by its sanction or fiat becomes
rooted in the mind.
The distinctions just pointed out
are, however, fundamental distinc-
tions. They should be taught in the
schools. They are simple and easy to
be understood even by a child.
while the silver dollar is real
money, its power to exchange for
other things is more than doubled by
an artificial value impaired to it
through the law which gives it power
equal to the dollar in gold to pay
custom dues
Having an equal value in this di-
rection, and the quantity being linz
tied, it has equal value in all direc-
tiOns, but the difference between the
metallic value of the silver dollar and
this arbitrary value lies in the realm
of credit"
Mr.. Cages views on other questions
submitted by the World, are author
lied by him in this form:
1. He is not merely in favor Of civil
| service reform as an amiable theory.
He is an active, aggressive civil-ser-
vice reformer. He was one of the
| first men in this city to give support
to the national movement which re-
suited in the present law
He goes as far as, if not farther
than, any man in Mr. Cleveland's or
Mr.. Harrison's cabinet in his belief.
He will extend the merit system
wherever he finds an opening for it.
,. He favors retiring of the green
backs.
3. He favors enlarging the national
banknote circulation.
4. He is against the trusts.
>. He believes the Sherman anti
trust law can be enforced.
6. He believes the Republicans
should invite and encourage the co
operation of sound-money Democrats.
7. He sympathizes with Cuba, and
believes the government should use
its good offices to bring about ter
minus of the bloody strife.
8. He does not believe in involving
this country in war.
8. He is not radical in his tariff
views. He is inclined to low tariff.
10. He endorses the arbitration
treaty with England.
To the question: "Do you think
the national banks could have borne
the demand for gold of the past three
years better than the United States
Treasury if the greenbacks had been
retired?" He makes this answer:
ITO obtain the coin for such a
movement bank notes would be pre-
sented for redemption as the green
backs have been. If the coin demand
proved continuous the banks would
recoup by calling in maturity loans.
In short, a contraction in general
credits would occur. Under it's influ-
ence prices would fall until foreign
creditors would find it more advan-
tageous to take commodities than to
take coin. Thus the movement
would be self-curative. The strain of
this process would under ordinary
conditions be light; because it would
be spread all over the country, wher-
ever banks of issue existed"
