BAILEY MADE THEM CRY.
representative Cites a Case of 'eToo
Much LOhnsnnD

Washington, March 31-In the house
today Mr.. Lewis replied to remarks of
Mr.. johnson. He declared that if the
1nd1anian spoke for the president on
the floor, when his political epitaph was
written, it would contain only the line:
Too Much Johnson
MT johnson responded in a speech
lhat attracted the most intense inter-
est. Cheers, applause and Kisses at diff
terent times greeted it. 1t was an elO-
quent appeal for peace. War and its
horrors he pictured in black colOrS, the
anguish of the widows and the cries of
the orphans. Every possible expedient
should be urged and resorted to before
we declared for war.
He feared congress was driving the
president on. If the ultimatum had
been sent to Spain, he believed it meant
war. He cared nothing for the Kisses or
the applause of the public. History
would vindicate him.
Mr.. Bailey, the Democratic leader,
followed Mr.. Johnson and charged that
the refusal of the Republicans TO vote
freedom to Cuba, was to give the pres
ident a chance to compel the island of
Cuba to buy her liberties from the
butchers of Spain. He declared that
there was yet a chance to avert war.
Within As hours, he said, a representa-
tive of the Cuban republic had told him
that Cuba did not desire to involve the
United States in war. All she desired
was recognition, so she could buy arms
and ammunition, and in a few months
she would be free. So elOquently did
he describe the horrors of war as they
had come home to the southern people,
that members of the floor and in the
galleries actually Wept, and when, IN
conclusion he declared that his side
was for free Cuba, without war, if pos
sible, but with war, if necessary, the
demonstration from the galleries was
overwhelming.

MAY GO TO ST. LOUIS.
Removal of Presbyterian Home Mis-
sions Board From New York
Proposed.

Pittsburg, Pa, March 31-The removal
of the home missions board from New
York to St. Louis will be one of the great
questions that will be brought before the
Presbyterian general assembly in Winona
in May. Rev. DR.. C. w. F. Birch of
New York and Rev. Charles A. Dickey of
Philadelphia were here today comforting
with local Presbyterians on this and other
matters Dr. Dickey said:
Il am decidedly in favor of removing
the board of home missions to St. Louis
and making Rev. DR.. Samuel J. NiccoIs
the secretary. 1t is the only way to
solve the synod management problem. The
synodicaI plans have come to stay. The
home board was created for an emer-
gency, but now its occupation is largely
gone. Why have a board away down on
the seacoast in New York to manage the
work of the great synods like Pennsyl-
vania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois? The old
synods can do their own work at st.
Louis. and the frontier work can be in
cOmparably better managed than from
New York. Then another thing, the time
is coming, and we shall see it, when the
freedmen's board must be consolidated
with the home board, and St Louis is
the proper location for the management
of the work
Dr.. Birch opposes the transfer of the
board The proposition will cause a lively
church contest when the New York Pres
byterians hear of it.

REPE1LED BY GRosvENoR.
He Denies Insinuations Against the
Administration.

Washington, March 31.-Gen. Gros-
venor of Ohio, on the floor of the house
declared that the statement that the
administration proposed to dictate and
had suggested the purchase of CUBA by
the insurgents was contemplate.
The administration he said, was anx-
ious for the freedom of Cuba and no
one from the president down would
agree to anything except the absolute
independence of Cuba. In conclusion
he declared that Cuba would be free
by American intervention. A declara-
ton of Cuban independence without
other action, would be Valueless- The
army and navy would back up the ad-
ministratiOns policy if necessary.
War preparations were going on night
and day said Gen. GrOsvenOr. What
does it mean? Not that we shall de-
clare Cuba free and do nothing. What
did it mean, that we were buying war
ships abroad? The president would not
miss this brilliant opportunity to place
his name in the temple of fame beside
that of Lincoln. When all was over,
the people of the country would shout
his name in general acclaim.

THE PROBLEM SOLVED.
THE NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY
TESTED.
Results in the Tests of Various Forms
of Dyspepsia.

Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia,
while a very common trouble, has for
some time been looked upon by able
physicians as a serious thing, and that
no time should be lost in treating it
properly at the start, because recent
researches have shown that the most
fatal and incurable diseases have
their origin in simple dyspepsia or in
digestion.
Diabetes is simply one form of indi-
gestiOn, the sugar and starchy food not
being assimilated by the digestive or
gans. In Bright's disease the aIbu-
men is not properly assimilated.
While consumption and dyspepsia are
twin diseases, and it is beyond question
that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil for
the seeds of consumption.
But the trouble has been to
find a remedy that could be depended
upon to cure dyspepsia, as it is motor
iously obstinate and difficult to cure.
This has been the question which has
alike, until the question was solved
three years go by the appearance of a
new dyspepsia cure in the medical
world known as Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, which it was claimed was as
a certain, reliable cure for every form
of stomach trouble
Physicians, however, would not ac-
cept such statements without first Civ
ing the new remedy many tests and
carefully observing results.
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested III every SecLlOQ OF
the country and with surprising and
satisfa Glory results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be
honestly claimed to be a specific, a rad
zeal lasting cure for indigestion in the
various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour
stomach, gas or wind on stomach, too
much bile, undue fullness or pressure
after eating and similar symptoms re-
sulting from disordered digestion. Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets were not
placed before the public until the three
years trial left no doubt as to their
value and they have recently been
placed in the trade and can be found
on sale at all druggists at the nominal
price of so cents per package.
No extravagant claims are made for
the remedy. It will not cure rheuma-
tism. pneumonia, typhoid fever nor
anything but just what it is claimed to
cure and that is every form of stomach
trouble.
No dieting is necessary, good whole
some food and plenty of it and you may
rest assured that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will digest it.
Druggists claim for it that it is a
pleasure to recommend it to dyspeptics
because it gives such universal salts
