AGAINST SHIP SUBSIDY.
Senator Vest Says IS Per Cent. of Prize
Money Would Go to the International
Navigation Company.

Washington, March lin the
senate Monday the ship subsidy bill
was taken up and Mr.. Vest (Mo)
made a speech against the measure.
He said that 70 per cent. of the sub
sidy on the Atlantic side would go to
the international Navigation COM
pany. The bill would take money out
of the treasury without giving any
value in return.
Mr.. Vest said there was no subsidy
paid by Great Britain to her ships
that dominate the. carrying trade of
the world. He could make the state
ment and challenge successful con-
tradiction that SO per cent. of the
CARRYING trade in the hands of En-
gland is done by her iron tramp
steamers who never receive a cent
from the country. The increased
mail pay given by England he denied
was a subsidy for the purpose of ex-
tending her commerce but was given
for political and military reasons
from which she cannot escape. 1t
was an abuse of the word subsidy
to call it such.

MOST people think that catarrh is a
1VA disease confined to the head and
nose. Nothing is farther from
the truth. It may be that the nose and
throat are the oftenest affected by Ca
tarrh, but if this is so it is SO only be-
cause these parts are more exposed to
the vicissitudes of the climate than the
other parts of the body.
Every organ, every duct, every cavity
of the human body is liable to catarrh.
A multitude of ailments depend on ca
tarrh. This is true winter and summer.
Catarrh causes many cases of chronic
disease, where the victim has not the
slightest suspicion that catarrh has any
thing to do with it.

Pretoria, March 81 greatly regret to

He was moving with 900 mounted men,
under Maj Paris and 300 infantry, four
guns and a pompom, from Wynburg to
Lichtenburg, and was to meet Grenfell

Bosch and Palmieteknill. The Beers
charged on three sides. Five hundred and
fifty men have come in at Maribogs and
Kraaipan. They were pursued by the
Beers four miles from the scene of the
action. They report that Methuen and
Paris. with the guns, baggage, ETC., were
captured by the Beers. Methuen, when
last seen was a prisoner. 1 think this
sudden revival of activity on the part OF
Delarey is to draw off the troops press

Affairs in Minneapolis
Must Stop.

When Governor Van SAINT learned this
morning that there had been two finish
fights In Minneapolis within the last few
weeks he declared that so far as he
could influence matters, the practice must
stop. The Minneapolis fights took place
ostensibly before clubs but in at least
one of the affairs, the general public was
admitted at 50 head.
Governor Van SAINT has instructed the
proper officers that they must use their
best efforts to prevent such athletic
events in future.
Minneapolis is not the only. city where
the governor has interfered in fstic con-
tests. At the information of some law
abiding citizens of Bemidji he put the
machinery Of the law-in the way of
prize fight at that city. He is deter
mined to prevent such occurrences.

Washington, March 31.-Speaker Hen
derson will not visit his district until
congress adjourns. While he does not at
tempt to minimize the Importance of the
candidacy of Senator CourtWright of Wa
terloo, he is confident, owing to advices
received from friends in the district, that
his own denomination is not seriously
menaced.
The speakers friends concede that Sen
ator Courtwright will carry Blackhawk
and Wright counties. but insist that the
speaker will carry the other seven coun-
ties of the district The aspect of the
opposition which seems serious to them
is the fact that after twenty years serv-
ice in the house enough hostile senti-
ment could soring up in any part of the
district to warrant an opposing candidate
to come out coeuly and announce his in
tentiOn to ask for the nomination. Il
Colonel eHnderson were not speaker, Sen
ator CourtWright's candidacy would not
appear strange.
Some Of tie speakers friends regard
the affair as Ominous. They predict that
it is the beginning of an 1nsurrectior
against the speaker which will continue
! until he is relocated to private life. He
is out of touch with his district, fact
which is due to his elevation to the high
est place in the organization of the house
| Of representatives.
| Mr.. Henderson's attitude upon tariff re
vision is completely at variance with the
attitude of his constituents. This his
most intimate friends in Washington
! acknowledge. They say that/the elector-
ate Of Iowa, especially the republican
| part of it, has become very insistent fo1
tariff reform and that sooner or later the
| congressional districts Of the state viii
send to Washington men who will be ii
! harmony with the IDEAS Of the voters.
