Mr.. F. c Helbig prominent
druggist of Lynchburg, Va, says:
zone of our citizens was cured of
rheumatism of two years standing,
by one bottle of Chamberlain's Pain

its cures of heumatism; thousands
have been delighted with the
prompt relief which, it Affords. For
sale by George & Montgomery.
1t is not often that physician
recommends a patent medicine ;
when he does, you may know that
il is a good one. DR.. J. p. Cleveland,
Glasgow, Va, writes: u have used
Chamberlain's Collie, Colera and
Diarrheea Remedy in my practice
and it has proven to be an excellent
remedy, where thorough cours of
medicine had failed with me. rec
Gmmend it to my patients every
time for collie and diarrhoea." Many
other progressive physicians recon-
mend and use this.remedy, because
it always cures and.cures quickly.

The Bankers Magazine for March
finds the origin Of our present troubles
about silver in the demand that the
ratio of its value to gold shall be deter
mined by the government. 1t is, how
ever, no proper part of the duty of the
government to try to fix the ratio of
values of the two metals.
Being" says The Bankers Maya
zine, commodities as well as money,
and being commodities before and after
they are money, and being money sim
ply and only because they are commodi-
ties, and being commodities because
they have recognized and intrinsic value
independent of any action of govern
ment, and even in the absence of govern
ment, and being therefore severally sub
ject to all the laws of commodities, the
law of variable supply and demand and
value among Others, and these varia-
tions not being uniform for both metals,
it is impossible that government can
ever fix the ratio of their value.
IF, however, it should be insisted
that it is the function and duty Of gov
eminent to (try toy fix the ratio of their
values, it would seem to follow as a
logical consequence that, since their
relative value depends absolutely On the
relative supply of the two metals it is
the primary and plain duty of govern
ment to fix (regulate) their supply by
controlling and operating the gold and
silver mines, the sources Of their pro-
duction. It should do both things or
neither, and it is preferable that it
should do neither. 1t is folly to expect it
to do the former without doing the lat
ter"
This is the truth of the matter in a
nutshell. Unless the government first
acquires all the mines in the world and
decides how much silver and how much
gold are to be produced yearly, it is i'm
possible to maintain ratio after it is
fixed" France fixed" it 1876 times,
but it would not stay fixed and France
has at length abandoned the effort. The
United States has also tried the expert
ment several times without success 1t
is time the theorists were letting the
| matter alone.

This is the truth of the m;


The Galveston Daily News reminds
its Texas readers of the difference in in
terest rates in the northeastern states
and in some of the western and southern
states and gives them few elementary
lessons ON the reasons for this difference
Interest is never so low," it says, Sin
communities given over to suspicious
fires, questionable assignments, fraudu-
lent failures or to Legislation with a de-
cided turn against the creditor and in
favor of the debtor. Much of the mar
ket rate Of interest is insurance against
risk, and of course diminishes as the
risk decreases. "Where men are required
by law to pay their debts and are not
sheltered and encouraged in tricky
courses by unreasonable exemption laws
and by public prejudice against cred
itors as class the risk is naturally less
serious.
Making its application to Texas,
The News says: 1--WE have right to
to leave fraudulent debtor residence
worth $50, 900, all the bank stock or
bonds he can carry and an extraordinary
collection Of the tools Of his trade or
profession and to defy his creditors to
crook finger at him. We can do this if
we prefer but it is going to cost us
something" 1t asks why the "goodly
majority of the people of Texas" who
are not disposed to live high today and
hide behind the exemption law, the as
signment law or some other law tomor-
row." should be forced by the discredit
of bad laws and a few dishonest men
to pay two prices for every dollar they
borrow" 1t believes the rate of interest
would come down one-half and the
loanable funds would double if the hon.
est men of the state would demand the
enactment of laws under which a cred
itor could collect what is due him.

Currency Evils Must BE Corrected.

Twenty-Five trade associations met at
Young's hotel, in Boston, on March
and decided to petition congress to pass
bill authorizing the president to ap-
point banking and currency commits
sion. They demand the gold standard
and the gradual retirement of the legal
tenders and favor the issue of currency
by the national banks to the par value
of their bonds and a reduction of the
tax ON circulation. They also recon-
mend additional banking currency, based
on assets, under national supervision,
safe, elastic and redeemable in gold, and
the establishment of banks with CAPT
tai of $25, 900 or more in small towns
and villages. The one important thing
is that they demand action. The future
of the currency question is very dark,
but there is one consideration that is en-
couraging, and that is the appearance

VIII Raise &225, 1000, 900 Revenue.
In the course of his speech, Mr..
Dingley said he calculated the bill
would raise 1926, 900, $4,000, 900
more than the present law. Over $40,-
100000 had been lost in this years rev.
enues by the importations of wool,
sugar and other things, the duty Oh
which was raised on the bill. Mr..
Dingley declared that there was nc
doubt that the revenue produced by the
bill would not only be ample to meet
tle expenditures of the government,
but allow Republican administration
to begin again to pay off the principal
of the public debt, which had been in
creased by the late administration. In
conclusion Mr.. Dingley received round
after round Of applause from his Repub-
ican colleagues by predicting as re-
suit of the enactment of this bill rise
of prices and a restoration of prosperity.
Bailey Makes His Speech.
At the evening session of the house
the Republicans still pursued the tactics
they had adopted during the day ses.
sion. None of them claimed the floor
and the minority We're compelled to put
forward their speakers. Therefore after
Mcdowell of Ohio and Berry of Ken
lucky, both Democrats. had made brief
speeches, Mr.. Bailey, the Democratic
leader, Nao had been reserving his
speech for the close, took the floor. He
made a carefully prepared argument
dealing more with the general principles
involved than with details. Time and
again during the progress Of his remarks
the Democrats were aroused by his elo-
quence to high pitch of enthusiasm.
Mr.. McMillin (Dem., Tenn.), who
had 20 minutes of his hour remaining,
consumed that time in denouncing the
sugar schedule.
The Vote Is Taken.
Mr.. Payne and Mr.. Dingley success.
sively took the floor for some closing
remarks. Both devoted their time to a
defense Of the sugar schedule. Amid a
storm Of cheering Mr.. Dingley then de-
manded the previous question on the
adoption of the conference report
Vainly Mr.. johnson (Rep., 1nd.) tried
to ask Mr.. Dingley a question while the
question was being put. Several time:
he called "Mr. Speaker" but was moi
recognized. The demand was sustained
by viva voce vote and the vote on thu
adoption of the report followed by yea
and nays.
Considerable excitement occurred
while the vote was being taken. Whe1
the speaker announced the vote, Is;
ayes, 1lS noes, the Republicans broke
into loud cheers.

FULL DISCUSSION
Mr. Morgan Makes a Statement
Regarding Business Before
the Senate.
The Tariff Conference Report to
BE Discussed in All Its
Bearings.
Union Pacific Resolutions Will
Also Be Considered and Acted
Upon.

WASHINGTON, July 2l.-The tariff
strue gle was removed to the senate, but
there was little evidence of an exciting
Acontest when the session opened. Sew.
eral of the senators who have been alb.
sent from the senate were back again
anticipating that every vote might be
needed.
The gallery attendance was grerter
than usual, although there was no
crowd. On the desk before Mr.. Allison
(Ia. in charge of the tariff bill, was the
ponderous manuscript of the tariff con-
ference report.
Immediately after the prayer a mes
sage from the house announced the
agreement OF that body to the confer
ence report. Considerable routine
business was disposed Of before the tar
III report was called up.
What 1t Is Proposed to DC.
The vice president announced in re-
spouse to an inquiry by Mr.. Allen
(Neb) that the pending Union Pacific
resolution was the unfinished business,
and would come up pat 2p. IN. unless
displaced. This drew from Mr.. Morgan
a statement as to the purpose to have
full discussion of the pending question.
1t was intended, he said, to discuss the
tariff report in all its political, financial
and historical bearings. Aside from
this, it was proposed to secure consider
alton for the Union Pacific resolution,
either by itself or during the tariff de-
bate if this became essential. 1t was
not an orderly practice, but, said he,
when men were tied up and lashed over
the back, they were not disposed to
stand on the niceties of procedure. 1t
was more important, he said, to save
$5O,OO0,00O by the Union Pacific resolu.
ton than to pass the tariff bill. Mr..
Allison suggested that there was no dis.
position to cut off all reasonable consid-
Grafton of the report. It was too i'm.
portant, however, to give way to other
questions which might be brought for
ward. The reading Of the conference
report in detail was then begun.

has appointed Thomas B. Turley of
Memphis United States senator to sue

Mr.. Turley is native born Tennes-

the question of tariff he is as hear free
trader as it is possible to be. On the
financial question he is strictly in line
with the recent Chicago platform. The

REAPING A HARVEST NOW.

Westmoreland Operators Not Disposed to
Give Up Their Advantage.
P1TrsBURG, July 2l.-Great interest is
manifested in the return to the city of
the members of the interstate arbitra-
ton board, as "true uniformity" is
largely dependent upon the success
attained by the members of the board
in their effort to enlist the support Of
the operators of their various states in
the movement. General Little wires
from Philadelphia that he has had diff
Guilty in seeing the representatives of
the Westmoreland Coal companies in
regard to the agreement, owing to their
absence from the city.
The situation in the Central Pennsyl-
vania bituminous mining district, ac-
cording to a telegram from Phillips
burg, is dependent upon::the outcome of
the strike in West Virginia and Mary
land. If the strike becomes general,
there it is thought that it will extend to
the Central Pennsylvania field, other
wise there will be no suspension of
work. At Barnesbore and Gallitzin,
the miners are are out on a strike for
higher wages. The operators there fear
that there will be little to do for some
months following the strike, owing to
the large stocks being laid in.
The Westmoreland operators are re-
ported to be doing land Office business
in coal. One operator estimated that
more coal was shipped from the mines
in Westmoreland county last week
than was sent out during the previous
two months. Three fourths of this is
going into the Pittsburg and Western
markets. Westmoreland coal is selling
at 81. .2j q ton.
