HAUNTED!

The human tenement Is often haunt
ed-to the grievous discomfort Of its
possessor-by those malignant spirits,
constipation and biliOusness. But the
abOminable pair may be peedily driven
out with the potent help Of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. This genial altera-
tive, while IL relieves the bowels and
regulates the liver, never, as a drastic
purgatiye does, produces violent effects
and weakens the intestines. On the
contrary, the action Of the Bitters IS
precisely analogous to an effort Of ma
ture seeking 70 resume her proper func-
tions This furnishes pretty conclusive
evidence that it is better TO use persua-
sive means, 50 to speak, than TO en-
deayOr TO coerce nature TO return
to duty Violent remedies produce only
a temporary effect, followed by hurt
full reaction. For Indigestion, maarlal
and kidney complains rheumatism and
nervousness, the Bitters takes highest
rank among remedies Of the philosophic
school.

Perhaps one Of the best indications
Of the power which IS behind Mr.. Ham
nond and the foundation upon which
the future Astoria is to be builded, is
furnished in that portion Of the ninety
nine year contract between the Astoria
and Columbia River Railroad and the
Northern Pacific for the use of the lat
ter's track between Goble and Portland.
1t appears that one Of the conditions is
that the Northern Pacific shall imme-
diately relay that portion Of its system
with steel rails of the heaviest manu-
facture, and it is further provided that
the Astoria road shall have and enjoy
ths same terminal facilities, union de-
pot and otherwise. now owned by the
Northern Pacific in Portland.

1t IS to be earnestly hoped that the
Torrey bankrupt bill. now pending in
the senate will be among the useful
pieces of legislation passed before the
close Of the present session II congress.
This admirable bill has been repeatedly
reported favorably by the judiciary
committees of former congresses, but
through some strange sort Of ill-luck
which has attended its cOnsid
before the main body, each time it has
Just barely missed obtaining the reQuis-
ite majority There is scarcely a law
yer Of national standing who has not
approved the bill, and thousands Of
prominent business men in various sec
tions of the country have not only urg-
ed the enactment Of some form Of ma
tional bankruptcy legislation, but have
directly called for the adoption Of the
Torrey law as the fairest and most
equitable bankruptcy plan that could
be adopted Mr.. TOrrey, one Of the
most eminent legal authorities Of the
United States, has devoted years Of in
defatigable effort to the task Of edu-
eating public sentiment as to the i'm
portance of the subject. and now. as
is often the case, having got congress
fully awakened 10 its duty In the prem
ises, there is danger that the bill 50
carefully drawn and revised by him
may be side-tracked in favor of a vast
ly inferior measure proposed by soIne
member of the senate who Is evidently
enyious of the credit that will attach
to the successful passage Of a law OF
such magnitude and necessity. The
senate has made the bankruptcy bill a
special order, and ii is the duty Of law
yers and business men throughout the
country who have studied the subject
to urge their representatives in con
gress to favor the TorTey law in pref
erence TO the substitute now pending
with it for Consideration in the senate
This substitute has never been favora
bly, recommended for enactment by an1
commercial, industrial or professional
body in the country, but has rather, il
effect, beer condemned by number o.
them. The controversy heretofore hal
been as to whether or not congress
should enact a bankruptcy law as au
thorized by the constitution, but tn
question now is whether or not ther,
shall be enacted complete, equitable

1t is becoming gradually and pain
fully evident that Secretary Olney is
another victim Of the proverbial trick
cry Of English diplomacy in his much
exploited arbitration treaty" The
friendship of Russia has been in time
past and will be in the future worth
many more times to this country than
any form Of alliance we could make
with Great Britain; to say nothing Of
the loss Of self respect involved in al
lowing ourselves to be used as a cats
paw by the English government to
creckmate the diplomatic intrigues
which she believes exists among her
more ancient rivals in Europe. The
treaty ought not TO be and never will
be ratified by the American senate.
