Whooping Cough.

A woman who has had experience
with this disease, tells how to prevent
any dangerous consequences from it.
She says: "Our three children took
whooping cough last summer, our baby
boy being only three months old, and
owing to our giving them Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy, they lost none
of their plumpness and came out in
much better health than other child
ren whose parents did not use this
remedy. Our oldest little girl would

ICE AND COAL.

The current rumors that the price of ice Is TO

FOR SENIORS From DELAWARE.

The plan Of agreement devised by the Regular
Republicans of Delaware for the purpose of
enabling the present legislature 70 elect United
States Senators is perfectly fair in itself, and
once more illustrates the good faith which they
have maintained from the beginning Of the CON
trOTersy. They propose to the Union or Ad-
3icks. Republicans that each faction shall select
Dne Of ten men 10 be named by the other faction
and that then both branches of the party shall
anite 10 secure the election Of the two men SO
.hosen. Under such an arrangement Addicks
could not be sent 10 the Senate but one If not
both Of the vacancies would be filed from
among his followers. If the proposition should
oe accepted, two Republicans would be prompt-
seated In the Senate, one for a year and the
other for three years. Otherwise there Is con-
siderable reason 10 believe that the people Of
Delaware disgusted by the long scandal will

IN turn will send two Democratic Senator's 10

have steadfastly maintained that 1t was duty
to the party in Delaware and every other state
and in fact 10 all the people Of the country with
out regard to party, to defeat a scheme pro
motcd by such means for such an end or accept
the alternative, and thus far they have sue

of uncOmpromiSing Obstinacy, and their cOnduct
has been personally disinterested. They have

dicks The plan now proposed comedies virtu-
ally everything except the fundamental prin-
ciple on which the fight against an artificial die
tatorship has been based It would leave him
in complete control Of everything he now owns,
and merely refuse to give him that to which he
has never established valid title. 1t would
accomplish the will of the people of Delaware
through the election of two Republicans TO rep
resent that State in the Senate, and 1t might
contribute TO honorable political victories there
in the future.

there must be a revenue. which should come
chiefly from customs, adequate to the needs OF
the government. and there should be such in

the people a reasonable degree of prosperity.

INDIAN LANDS N NEW-r0RK.

Some estimable citizens of Salamanca, y. Y,
are much Interested in the bill of Repre-
sentative Vreeland, himself a resident OF that
thriving Cattaraugus County town, which pro-
vides for the allotment in scyeralty OF the lands
now held in tribal relations by the Indians OF
the Seneca tribe of the Six Nations.
According to the provisions of the bill, which
are given in some detail In another column, the
United States Government is 10 hold In trust
for each Indian who shares in the distribution
the land allotted 10 him, the period of this
guardianship being fixed at twenty-five years.
At the end of that time it might reasonably he
expected that the Indians would have developer
sufficient business sagacity to be trusted with
the management of their property; and 80 eX-
perlenced a student of Indian affairs as the
Episcopal Bishop of Western Nrw-Hork is ready
10 cOncede that in the case of most New-Ior
Indians il would be safe to reduce the period
to ten or even seven years. But this provision
of the bill Is practically nullifed by another
clause which reads
Provided further That at any time after the
expiration of one year after such allotments
have been made, the Secretary Of the Interior.
upon presentation Of a certificate signed and
acknowledged by the county judge, the surro-
gate and the clerk of the county in which any
such allottee may reside. stating that such
al!ottee in their knowledge and opinion is tenn
perate, Industrious competent to manage his
affairs, and qualified for citizenship, may cause
such patent in fee simple TO issue to
such allottee under such regulations as the Sec
retary of the Interior may prescribe.
The objections to this proviso pointed out by
our correspondent are so obvious, in the light
of our past dealings with the red men. as to
make condemnation Of this feature of the bill
superhuous When one learns the terms of the
wholesale transfer of real estate owned by the
Indians in and around Salamanca, by which
the present lease holders expect to secure per
petual ownership of valuable property by the
payment Of Insignificant fraction of it's
. worth, it is difficult to be temperate in the de-
nunciation of the scheme. 1t is no wonder that
the Indians look upon the whole proceeding as
Bishop Walker says they do, as "a stupendOus
robbery"
BY comparison with the rate Of purchase feat
ure Of the bill, the proposition to cxtingush the
Ogden Land COmpany's "pre-emptiOn claims"
sinks into nsignificance; but on the face of it
the attempt to draw upon funds ndubitably
belonging TO the tribes for the satisfaction of
shadowy claims of a company that never had
real existence seems a worthy pendant to the
larger plan of spoliation.
