FEDERAL LAW MAKERS.

Washington, June TODAY che
senate met with view to eXpedtng
the tariff bill. Two speeches were made
during the day, one by Mr.. Man
tie (silyer rep, Mont) on the wool
schedule of the tariff bill, and another
by Mr.. Butler (pop)., n. c. on his
Joint resolution to impose income
taxes.
Washington, June I'm the senate
Mr.. Quay of Pennsylvania, pre-
scented several proposed amendments
to the tariff bill One of them pro-
poses to strike out the duty on tea and
substitute a duty of 10 per cent. ad
valorem on all articles proposed by the
bill TO be placed on the Tree list, the
said duties 10 continue until July |,
1901, after which the articles shall be
exempt from duty. Another amend
ment proposes a proviso to the para
graph fixing a duty on iron ore, so that
all iron ore from foreign mines owned
by American citizens and imported for
their own use and not for sale shall be
exempt from duty. The discussion
then proceeded on the PARAGRAPH plac-
ing duty of 81 per / 900 feet on lum-
Der. MrAllen, (popo Neb.,) moved to
substitute the provisions of the Wilson
bill, which placed lumber on the free
list Mr.. Berry (dem. Ark.) spoke
against restoring the duty on white
pine. He had been appealed to by the
lumber interests of his own state to
support the duty but he could not do
it when il laid such heavy tribute on
the agricultural people of the Western
states. Mr.. Berry expressed his aston
ishment that any Democrat senator
would support this restoration of duty
on lumber. Mr.. Bacon tuem., GaD
who is supporting the lumber duty re-
minded Mr.. Berry that his Bacon 81
support was due TO the fact that the
duty was a revenue rather than a pro-
teCtive right Mr. CafIery tdem., La
opposed this duty as undemocratic.

ferred to the peculiarities of the way

The human tenement is often haunted
Ito the griavous discomfort of its pos
essor-by those malignant spirits, consti-
patton and hiliousness. But the abomi-
nable pair may be speedily driven out
with the potent help of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters. This genial Alternative while
it relieves the bowels and regulates the
liver, never, as a drastic purgative does,
produces VIOLENT effects and weakens the
intestines. On the contrary, the action
of the Bitters is presicely analogous to
an effort OF nature seeking to resume her
proper functions. This furnishes pretty
conclusive evidence that it is better to use
persuasive means, so to speak, than to
enseavor to ccerce nature to a return to
duty. Violent remedies produce only a
temporary effect, followed by a hurtful
reaction. For: indigestion, malarial and
kidney complaints, rheumatism and ner-
vousness, the Ritters takes highest rank
among remedies of the philosophic school
