voted TO the postoffice appropriation
BILL and when that measure is dis
posed of the Panama canal bill will be
taken up. The canal bill will be among
the few measures other than appro-
priation bills that will receive attention
before final adjournment. The amend
ments will probably be debated at some
length. 1t is expected that by the time
the canal bill shall be disposed of the
sundry civil bill will have been re-
ported from the committee, whereupon
it will be considered.
During the week there will be discus
sions of various other bills, including
the bill for the protection of the Presi-
dent, on which Hoar will speak Mon
day; the pure food BILL on which Hey
burn will speak on Tuesday, and the
Chinese exclusion bill, which will be
discussed on Wednesday by Patterson.

will be the feature of the proceedings
in the House this week. Legislation
for the District of Columbia will have
the right of way part of Monday, and
the remainder of the day will be
utilized for the passage of bills under
suspension of the rules. On Tuesday
and Wednesday the conference report
on the District of Columbia appropria-
ton bill, to which the Senate has made
amendments, will take precedence and
the military academy bill will be dis
posed of during this time, as will con-
ference reports on several minor House
bills. On Thursday the Swayne i'm
peachment case will be called up. and
present indications are that debate on
this subject will consume the balance
of the week.
The report of the Mccall investiga-
tion committee is looked for the latter
part of the week.

was the best stomach medicine could
get. had to keep getting it filed all the
time at 20 cents bottle. did not know
what the cause Of my trouble was. but

About six months ago j quit tea and
coffee and began drinking Postum and
] have not had my prescription filed
since, which is a great surprise to me.
for il proves that coffee was the cause
Of eli my trouble although / never sus-
pected it.
when my friends ask me how I feel
since have been taking Postum I say.
To tell the truth ] don't feel at all
only that ! get hungry and eat every
thing 1 want and lots Of it and it never
hurts me and / am happy and well and
contented all the time
Il could not get my family TO drink
Postum for a while until / mixed it in
a little coffee and kept on reducing the
amount Of coffee until I got it all Pos
tum. Now they all like it and they
never belch it up like coffee.
I'VE all know that Postum is sun

minds for other things" Name given
by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
The one who has 70 bother with cof-

Success Crowns the
Efforts of Board
of Trade.

Sixteen years ago on the 18th Of this
month the Oakland Board of Trade
was Incorporated. During that time
many manufactures have been located
in Oakland and Alameda County
through the efforts OF the board
Hundreds Of families now living
within the confines Of the county
of Alameda first learned Of Oak
land through the literature sent out by
this board. Ever since its inception it
has advertised not only the city of
Oakland, but all Of Alameda County.
10 the best Of its ability and with
varied results. dependent almost solely
upon its membership and consequently
on the amount Of money on hand to ad-
vertise with.
At times during the last sixteen years
interest in advertising Oakland 10y the
business and professional men and
property owners Waned 10 such an eX-
tent as 10 make 1T almost impossible
70 eNpend any money in that direction
Then, again, renewed interest. either
IN the Board of Trade or in the results
attained by sending descriptive litera-
ture East, was shown; new members
were added 10 the hoard, new litera-
ture was printed and an increase in
immigration was the result
During its existence the membership
OF the Board of Trade has varied from
100 10 few more than 500. the latter
figure, however, only having been
reached within a month.
LINES OF MEMBERSHIP.
Membership in the board is not con-
fined to any one line OF business or to
any number of lines. Any and all per-
sons OF good moral character who are
interested in the growth Of the city Of
Oakland or Alameda County are eIigi-
. bic. The names Of applicants for men,
bership are presented by members at
any Of the regular meetings Of the
board Of directors. The names are bal
loted upon, and upon election dues Of
81 per month become payable. These
dues are used for the current or run
ming expenses and for compiling. print
ing and mailing illustrated literature
throughout the civilized world. Every
merchant. manufactures. professional
man, contractor or property owner is
or should be interested in the growth
Of his city. Every new family located
in a city through the efforts of a
Board Of Trade means added business
TO all lines Of trade and all professions
in the community.

creased membership and large civic

Old Glory Lowered With Honor.

OIG 0IOFy Lowered with Honor.
Americans may well feel some thrill
of pride and satisfaction in an incident
which occurred at Havana a few DAYS
ago. 1t was the ceremony which mark
ed the completion of this nations
part in the establishment Of the repub-
lie Of Cuba, when in the fulfllment Of
our pledges the last vestige of the
American occupancy of Cuba disap-
peared, the American flag was lowered
from the Cabana barracks and the last
battalion Of American soldiers marched
out and boarded a United States army
transport. Standing on the wind swept
plain near Cabana fortress, between a
line of American and another line Of
Cuban troops and surrounded by a
crowd of Americans and Cubans. Pres
ident Palma feeIingly voiced his appre-
citation Of all that the Americans have
done for Cuba. He said:
We are in the presence Of the most ex-
traordinary fact recorded in the annals
of universal histOry-tO see leave our
shores the last troops the United States
left in Cuba after helping us to secure
our independence and the blessings Of
freedom. They could stay longer under
any preteXt whatever or they could i'm
pose upon us an unjust demand; but on
the contrary, the government of the
United States, identified it is with the
liberal spirit and noble character Of the
American people, willingly proves its dis
intereStedness and the sincerity Of the aid
1t rendered us by taking these men away
and showing us at the same time that
we have, as an independent people, the
confidence of one Of the most powerful
nations on earth.
The American flag was slowly low
cred from the staff over the Cabana
fortress, a salute OF twenty-one guns
being meanwhile fired from the for
tress. The Cuban flag was then raised
in its place and also saluted with TWEEN
ty-one guns.
1t is not usual that we take pride in
the lowering of Old Glory, but this was
an occasion upon which it was hauled
down with joy and eXaItation, hav
ing fluffy accomplished the high mission
for which it was raised on the erst-
while oppressed and downtrodden is
land. Having given the Cubans indie
pendence and set them in the highway
of national prosperity and peace, 1t goes
down in honor

Unfortunately Declared a Draw.

Mart Sturtevant's bulldog, Conser, has
been cock of the walk in this town for
many years. Besides easily vanquish-
ing the biggest dogs he has killed seven
porcupines and is an old customer of
the village blacksmith, who extracts the
quilts of Infatuated porcupines which he
has fearlessly attacked. Since the ar
rival of the Aliens, who also have bull
dog, COnser has been on his good be-
haviOr. The merits of the dogs have
been discussed at the corner grocery and
some of the gamblers have offered to
bet two to one on the Allen dog, though
a much smaller dog than Cohser.
Wednesday, however, the two dogs got
tangled up in a fight on Willow street,
and Ringing Bros circus could not
have attracted a larger crowd. Men,
women ond children focked to see the
fight. The marshal, fearing that Others
might take a hand in the scrap, made
his appearance, and after seing q round
or two. ordered the respective owners OF
the bulldogs to pull them apart. 1t was
the best fight that has taken place in
the town for a month

"National Arbitra ton Tribunal

National Arbitration Tribunal"
The formation Of a national tribu-
naP' which shall make arbitration vol
untary, but public information compul
sorry, in consideration of labor disputes
is the gist Of a bill introduced in con,
gress by Senator Cullom of Illinois.
The measure proposes that the new
tribunal shall act as arbitrator only on
the invitation Of both parties to a dis
pute, but provides that on the invita-
ton of only one party or even without
the invitation of either the tribunal
may investigate the merits Of the con-
troversy and publish a report thereon
For this investigation the tribunal Is
clothed with the authority Of court to
require the attendance and testimony
Of witnesses, and the latter, as required
by the fifth amendment to the consti-
tuition, are expressly shielded from
prosecution or punishment because of
any transaction concerning which they
may testify.
This measure is drawn along the lines
Of the best state arbitration acts, par
ticularly that Of Illinois. Inasmuch as
it applies only to such interstate or in
tercOuntry disputes as are beyond the
field of state legislation, it does not con-
fict with the work the several states
are doing in this matter, but supple
ments it and makes arbitration a truly
national policy.
Public sentiment is not yet apparent
ly ready to make arbitration compul-
sorry even in disputes between capital
and labor employed in industrial mo-
nopolies on which the public is solely
dependent for supplies, but it is pre-
pared for the kind Of compulsion which
this bill contemplates-the compelling
of both parties TO a labor conflict to APP
pear before an impartial tribunal which
may thoroughly inform itself and the
public as to the rights and wrongs of
the case. CompuIsion Of this kind ex-
ercises in many cases almost the au-
thOrity of law, for in labor disputes
both sides have learned to recognize the,
present and the permanent value Of the
approval Of public sentiment

Those democrats who last year pre-
dicted that people would be slower about
paying taxes this spring than hereto
lore, for the reason that they would not
have the money, had better retire to the
rear end of the room and be seated.
The county treasurer received during
the month of February just closed
$104, 549.35, as against SCI, sos SO for
the same month last year. By the first
OF March, last year, the Northern Pa
citc Railway Company had paid its
taxes and the 0. R. & n. Company had
not. This year the o. R. & n. has paid
and the Northern Pacific has not put in
an appearance. The O. r. & N. pays
more taxes than the Northern Pacific,
and by taking the difference between the
two amounts so as to equalize the rail-
road payments for the two years, it is
found that over $4,000 have been paid
this year than were paid last, during
the same period. Thus it will be seen
that the democratic cry OF hard times
and no money is little far fetched.

Mr.. Bryan and Mar. Carnegie.
New York sun

MIR. Bryan, as becomes a blossoming
plutocrat, begins to emulate Mr.. Car
negie. He is to erect and give to Salem,
H., the city of his birth, library build
ing to cost $4,000. Then he is to pro-
vide and install a library at a cost OF
$4,000. 1t may be doubted if that is
not too much money to spend upon the
books in a $4,000 building. Whether
the sam be disproportionate or not, it
testifes to the donors breadth of view
and enlightened generosity. The race
between Mr.. Carnegie and Mr.. Bryan
will be watched with thrilling excitement
by all the admirers of philanthropy Mr..
Carnegie may have more money, but
MIR. Bryan has more youth, a profitable
pen and voice and great testamentary
expectations. Mr.. Carnegie is trying to
give away his money while he is living.
Mr.. Bryan collects the money from the
dead to give away. The conditions are
less unequal than they seem.

The editor OF the Commoner is entitled
to more of the sympathy of the com
munity than will ever be extended to
him, for he is literally "man without a

the national convention to be told to
"go way back and cit down.. In this

500 Reward, 500,

The readers of this paper will be pleased to
learn that there is at least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure in all its
stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a consti-
tutional disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation Of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing its work
The proprietors have so much faith In it's cura-
tive powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send

A Philadelphia clergyman recently
enlivened the meeting of an association
for the aid of self supporting women
by expressing his regret that woman
has ever entered the race for making
money because it "submerges her finer
nature" The Pittsburg Dispatch adds
that his auditors patiently abstained
from asking him whether woman,s
finer nature would be prevented from
being submerged if she should starve
to death.
