MARKET REPORT.

The sun., 1898-01-20

VERY little time was lost by the Senate
in disposing OF the Lodge bill, which is
generally known as the immigration
bill, because it is intended to properly
restrict immigration to this country.
The measure is now in the House, and il
that body uses as conimendable prompt
ness as did the Senate the bill should
become Il law without much delay. Like
every other measure of this character,
the Lodge bill is not without its OPP
ponents, but the fact is that its provi-
sions have never been rightly under
stood by many OF those who have been
making the attacks which for a time
frustrated the efforts OF its supporters.
There is no desire or:s intention on the
part OF anyone to violate one OF the
greatest principles OF our ancestors--that
America should be an asylum for the
free and oppressed Of every cline. With
the exception of the Chinese, the Lodge
bill guarantees admittance to this coun-
try to the people OF every nation on
earth who are intelligent, law-abiding
andS industrious, but at the same time
prevents the immigration of the ignor-
ant, lazy, filthy scum which on more
than one occasion in recent years have
melted to riot, caused 5loodshed and
afforded aid and encouragement to cor
porations and others who desired to
grind down, humiliate and oppress the
American laborer. The present bill is
identical with that vetoed
by President Cleveland during his last
term in Office, but it is safe to predict
hat If the House concurs in the Senate's
action, President Mckinley will at once
attix his signature and measure Of
'elief afforded the country the consunl-
nation of which has been delayed only
90 long.

A SPIRITED contest is now going on in

sion to the seat now rccupied by Arthur
Pue German in the United States Senate.
At present Judge McComas leads in the
voting, but in contests of this kind,
where bitterness of feeling abounds
among the friends of the candidates, it
is often dangerous to be in the lead, as
the tendency Of the field to effect a
coalition against the favorite in elections
Of this kind is almost proverbial, and

\ Peculiar. Case,

Sr. Louis, Mo-, Jan. ia transcript
has been filed in the United States Cour
of Appeals from the United States Cour
that presents a peculiar insurance qucs
tion. Some time ago DIR. JEANNE c. Nc
Clother died OF poison taken by mistake
for medicine at Kansas City. He had al
accident insurance policy for 5000 ir
the Provident Mutual Accident Company
Of Philadelphia. His widow brought
suit to collect the 5000, but it was de-
cidcd against her on the ground that
death from poison was not an accident
within the meaning Of the words in the
policy. She has now taken recourse to
the Court Of Appeals to reverse the de-
cision.

SENATOR MORGAN of Alabama predicts
that war will come if this country fails
to annex Hawaii. The consequences OF
a refusal by Congress to agree with the

to consider carefully the question and
to keep in mind the probability that if
We refuse other powerful nations may
not be SO skeptical.

A Medical Fraud,

The greatest deadbeat in the world
is quack of any profession who le-
fuses to pay his advertising bills.
There ought to be IA law prohibiting
newspapers from advertising quack
doctors, because until there is they
will be advertised.
The public in general and plo-
pTietors of newspapers in particular
are warned against one Doctor Ches-
X. Holsman, who has for some time
victimized publishers in various parts
of the Pacific coast by inserting ad-
vertisments and refusing to pay for
them, An investigation just made by
the Stillwell DetectiYe Agency
brought out the following facts re-
ferring to the doctors methods.
At 1907 Market street. San Fran
cisco, is, or at least was, up to quite
recently a concern called Columbia
Medical Institute composed Of one
Chas X. HolsmaD. NJ. d. and a small
boy. DR.. H0lsman is the Institute
when at home and one of the trayel-
ing physicians of the Columbia when
abroad.
During his trips into the interior
he patronizes the local papers Of what
eyer town he happens to visit and has
the bills sent to his home address,
where they remain unpaid. To col
lectors the doctor says at trst that
he would lay the matter before his
brother who he claims is the man
who contracted for the ads but after
several calls made on him he drops
the brother aud admits that he has
no money and is unable 10 meet the
bills. AS a matter Of fact, he has no
brother here at all, his only brother
being an architect residing in Milwau-
kee. Men who have been intimately
acquainted with DR.. Holsman for
years give him a very bad name and
tell of all kinds of ugly scandals he
has been connected with in the past.
In other words, his reputation is an
unsavory one. A few days ago, about
the first of February, the Columbia
Medical institute, that is, the doctor
and his small boy, were busy packing
their belongings, they being in finan-
cial trouble as DR.. Holsman frankly
stated. He did not know then whether
he would only move to some other To-
cality or whether he would abolish
The institute altogether.

New Suits.

Present indications are that the
February term of the Marion county
court will be a busy one so far as civil
cases are concerned. Scarcely a day

have been instituted: Mary X. Nc
Clure VS.. A. Bush for the sum OF 1906
and costs and disbursements. In her
complaint, the plaintsff alleges'that on
October %, 1897, she deposited that
amount Of money in the bank at Sa-
lem conducted by the plaintiff and on
February 4, 1898, she presented her
check for the repayment to berof said
money but the defendant refused TO
pay the same or any part thereof.
Holmes & Kellogg are attorneys fo-
the plaintiff.
Warren Simmons, administrator OF
the estate of A. B. Simmons, deceased,
seeks to recover from U. S. Simmons
the sum of $500, with interest on $500
thereof since October II, 1891, at per
cent, and on $500 since October 8, 1892,
which he alleges is due on loans made
to defendant by the deceased during
his life II. j, Bigger, is attorney for

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshheld, Mo-,
writes: "For six years l have been
sufferer from a scrofulous affection of
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, d. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and st. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re-
moval of the gland. At this critical mo-
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had / only used your S.S.S. long ago,
/ would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $I5o."
This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the cz;'-
real t!.55;.i remedy; it gets at the root OF
the disease and forces it out Perma-
