There is moro Catarrh in this sec tion of the country than all other dis eases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be in curable. For a great many years doc tors pronounced it a local disease an prescribed local remedies, and by con Stautly failing Co cure with local treat meut, pronounced it incurable. Scienc has proven catarrh to be a constitu- tioual disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Ca tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney x Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the mar kct. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teasp0OntuI. It acts directly on the blood and mucou surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials.

SENNA'' N"p"''"' m meeting m extra session at this time is the revision of tho tariT. There are other matters of public policy which. in the judgment of the new executive. demand attcn- ton from the national legislature. These will be taken up at the next regular session of congress in Dcccm- her. AS to the reason for taking up the revision of the tariM in advance of other measures of reform President Taft said in his inaugural remarks:
 "I, i~ not that the tarin' is more i'm uormt in the long run than the per fcctiug of the reforms in respect to antitrust legislation and interstate commerce regulation, but the need for action when revision of the tarifr has been determined upon is more immc- diatc to avoid embarrassment of buS- ness"
 Hence the desire of the executive that the work of revision should pro cccd as promptly and cypcditiously as may be consistent with careful and conscientious examination of tho pro posed changes In the schedules of du-

 "It is thought that there has been such a change in conditions since the enactment of the Dmglcy act, drafted on a similarly protective principle, that the measure of the tariff above stated will permit the reduction of rates in certain schedules and will re- Quirc the advancement of few. if any"
 In recent years when there have been extensive alterations in the tar il, or attempted alterations. they have been the result of efforts to undo the work of an opposite political party in amendment of the schedules. It was so in the case of the DiuglCy act, which was drafted by a Republican congress with the view of undoing what had been done by a Democratic congress when tho Gorman-WilSon bill was enacted in President ClCvcland'S second administration. The German. Wilson act, in turn, was a return to q Democratic basis for tho tarif, sue Cecdiug the Republican standard oS- tabliShcd by the Mckinley act. And SD uu bacI, through the Mills bill, the Morrison bill and other tarin' meas urcs. some enacted, others only pro- posed and discussed or acted upon by but one branch of the government The tarirr vas usually taken up when there was change in the political complexion of congress and one party or the other desired to alter 1t to con- form to its particular ideas.
 In the present instance there has been no change in the political com plcxion of the government. and re- vision of Republican measure is to be undertaken by a Republican con- gross. The work is attempted in re- Spousc to a sentiment in favor of re- vision believed by the incoming admin istration to be earnest and widespread. There is naturally much interest and in some quarters even anxiety as to the results of the revision, as the tariff is a matter affecting so directly the business of the country. The hearings held during the winter by the ways and means committee revealed the fact that a wide difference of opinion eX- lstS even among members of the party in power as to precisely what changes should be made in the sched- ules. President Taft has made his position in the matter clear, but it Is congress which devises and frames legislation, and the executive may only approve or reject what congress has done. The work of enacting q meas ure of this kind involves compromise.

 that body. Tho senate. too, will pass q bill. or endcavOr to do so, and Scna- tor Nelson B. Aldrich, as head of the finance committee, will have much to do with the proceedings in the upper chamber. The final measure will rep resent an agreement or compromise between the two bodies. It Is custom. ary for the house 10 initiate legislation of this character, as the branch of the government nearest to the people, and the measure adopted is apt to take It's stamp from the framcrs of the house bill. The Wilson bill of Mir. Clcye- lands administration. however, under went so many changes in the senate before it's final adoption that it's origi- nal authors hardly knew 1t.
 Congressman Payne, who represents in the house the Thirty-iirSt New York district. has a knowledge of the tariif acuuircd In the course of twenty-five years service in congress. during which time he has participated more or less in the framing of several tariI measures. Mir. Paync'S chief opponent and critic in the forthcoming tartir bill will be Representative Champ Clark of Missouri. who last December succeed ed John Sharp Williams as Democratic leader in the house. Mir. Clark, too. is a well posted man on tarln matters and one who is very quick to grasp every opportunity for scoring party advantage.
 Aside from the subject of tariff re- vision. the special meeting of the sixty first congress is interesting in that 1t serves to introduce many newly elected members to the public as national law makers. In the senate especially the changes in membership are noticeable. In the house, too. there are many new faces, but not so many of the old standbys are missing as in the senate the principal ones being ConSreSSmen w. r. Hepburn of Iowa and W. Bourkc Cochran of New York. In the senate the list includes Forakcr of Ohio, Tel Ter of Colorado. Platt of New York, Knox of Pennsylvania. Ahkehy oI Washington. Fulton of Oregon and others well known, the three first men, toned being men whose names have been identified with national lcSiSla- ton for quarter of q century or more. Among the new men are Iheo- dorc F. Burton of Ohio. successor to Mir. Foraker. who already ranks as one of the leading statesmen of the na- tion: Elihu Root, who yields the pre- micrship of the cabinet to take the seat of Thomas c. Platt as q member from the Empire State, and George P. Chamberlain of Oregon. who is noted as probably the first Democrat ever chosen to the senate by legislature having q large Republican majority,
