By its Btnunch adherence to the constitution and its logical exposition of the law, aa voiced by Senator Bailey, of Texas, the democratic mi nority in the Senate scored a signal victory last week and forced President pro tern Frye to recede from the auto era tic position which he had assumed. Following the per SDnal encounter between Sen ators Tillman and M'-Lurin and to which only the unjin tifiaMe action of Senator Frye lads me to tcfer, t h e President pro tern caused to beeraccd from the rolls of the Senate the names of Uip two Senators from South Car olina. For the reason named, when the Philippine bill vwis passer1 on Monday afternoon neither Senator was given an opportunity to vote, Senator Baily, however, so ablv pre sented the unconstitutionali ty of the action of the Chair that their names were restor ed on the following day and the republicans caused an im mediate adjournment of Tues day's and Wednesday's ses sions because they feared to act in the matter until t h e Committee on Privileges and Elections had reported. On Thursday the Senate mt in joint sension with the House to participate in the memori al services held for President McKinley and on Friday the ahove committee reported, censuring both Senators for having violated the dignify of the Senate hnd removing from them the stigma of con tempt which had been placed upon them by the whole Sen ate in executive session. There is a further report due from the above named committee. It has ben in Mructed to investigate the chargpof Spnator Tillman that . Mr. McLaurin was bnb ed with the promise of the federal patronage of t h e state, to vote for the ratifica tion of the treaty of Paris. ts is wen Known, the junior A all . Senator from SouthCarolina had made a speech in the Sen ate denouncing the treaty, and later, after a call to the White Houf, he voted for its ratification. He has since been adopted hy the republi can caucus and has dictated the federal appointments in his state. The democratic Sijn ators declare that the repub licans dire not pursue the in vestigation of Mr. Tillman's charges and say that no fur ther report would b brought in, On Friday the Senate passed the permanent cen sufPhill. - It was passed by the House on the same day and the President will have now an opportunity of dem onstrating how sincere he is in his protestationsof regard for civil set vice reform, as the bill is th severest blow to the reform and the aims of the commission that has heen struck by'Congrsss in years. By its provisions it giyes precedent in the line of ap pointment, to about 1500 employes of the Census Onlc who were a ppointed , by . The "spuila system" over n near ly. pqual number who have passed civil service examina tions and are eligible to ap pointment as soon as vacan ries occur. Senator Rawlins of Utah, who is n member of the Phil ippine Committee, and has been in constant attendance nt the hearings of that com mittee, gave me yesterday some of the impressions and views he has formed on the Philippine question. "T h e policy of theadministration" h said, "as is made evident bv the investigation and tes timony bebre the committee and the policy ol the republi cans so far as thej have an nounced it, is contrary, not only to democratic princi ples but to every precedent in the government of this eoun try arid the only outcome must be if thcseplans are car ried into execution, the virtu al suiTendtr of the islands to large capitalists and the at tendant enslavement of the people. As j on know, there is a scheme now on foot to purchase thelandheld by the friars. That is all right, so fir as it goes, but now the Taft Commission represents that it will be impractical to dispose of these lands, as has been the custom with govern meat lands in this country, to the small owners and set tlers. Great capital they say, is needed to develop the is lands and accordingly they will sell or lease immense tracts of land to large corpo rations. It will theu be their policy to admit Chinese im migration. At the present time the labor in the islands is employed, in so far as it is willing to be. but they wish to import Chinese labor for the development of the is lands, again, which will work far from 5.00 to $10 00 per month and find itself, This labor will be employed in the production of sugar and oth er profitable crops and will result in a menace to Ameri can industries. "It is true that the demo crats believe there should lie Free trade between the islands and the United States until such time as the.Filipinosnre made independent and there is nothing to fear from their competition under ordinary circumstances, but it the plans of the capitalists who now dominate affairB are car ried into effect, practically free land is used for produc tion and cheap chinese labor HAVING A ltUX OX CHAMBER lain's COUGH REMEDY. Between the hours of eleven o'clock a. m., and closing time at night on Jan. 25th, 1901, A. F. Clark, druggist. Glade Springs. Vu.. sold 12 bottles of Chamberlains Cough Remedy. He savs: "I never handled a medicinethat Hold better or gave better sat isfaciiou to my customers." This Remedy has been m gen era I use in Virginia for many years, and-the people there are well acquainted with its excellent qualities. Many of them have testified to the re rnarkable cures it has effect ed.

Then the Comrn mission desires author ity to issue bonds which will have to be guaranteed by this country for 'the develp- ment of the islands' and- so place upon the Filipinos a burden of indtbtednees the.y are ill prepared to bear and so attach them to the Uni ttn States by ties of indebt edness as t') forever prevent the acquirement of their free dom. There' are 53.000 a cres of sugar lands in Mindo ra alone which vill yield mug nificent profits under this ne farious scheme." Spnator Rawlins also allu ded ,to the railroad franchis es. contracts lor public work and other benefits which will be awarded to ' the favored lew" if the administration is able to carry out its present plans. Apropos of the Sena tor4s remarks, Gov. Tufts re marks that it, will require from3,000,000 to $8,000,- 000 to purchase the friar's islands. The memorial exercises of the .late President held on Tuesday were elaborate and impressive. The half-masted flags, the playing of the Pres ident's favorit hymn by the Marine Band, and the eulogy of Secretary Hay, which was remarkable for the elegance of its dk'tion and the beauty of its metaphors, all combin ed to produce an atmosphere of somberness that took one back to the last sad rites which occurred in the Capi tol in September. Prince Hen ry of Prussia was present and preserved throughout d rig idity ot military decorum remarkable from an Ameri can standpoint. Although I watched him closely, 1 can say that he never moved an inch during the hour and a half which was requiied for Mr. Hay to deliver his ad dress. The visit oi the Prince to the national capitol was a great su 'eess and he made friends with all who came in contact with him. "He is a genuinesailorandthat means a jolly good fellow," remark ed a member of the Commit tee on Naval Affairs who had himself sailed tho high seas, and that, perhaps, tells the whole story.

Wingfield of Fnir Play, Mo., who suffered from chronic dvsentery for thirty five years, say 8 Chamberlains Colic, Cholera and Diarrhjeu Remedy did him more good than any other medicine he had pvej- osed,JRor sale by Blackburn! r; - I' Boosorelt'i Ruse, The finding of President Rooeevelt on the S -hley ap peal is manifestly an effort to promote his policy of stop ping discussion of the mat ter. As nearly as possible it is a decision that nobody was in cominnnj at the battle of Santiago. As to the1 ques tion of Schley and Sampson, hesnj's expretsly, "so far as the actual fiht was concerned neither one nor the other in fact exercisedany command, This may strike one as a cleyer expedient to get rid of themntter, but it involves some difficulties. Admiral Sampson had gone away for an interview with Gen. Sh after. He necessarily knew that while thus engag ed he could not attend to his duties as commander of the fleet. He had sailed down past them all flying the sig nal, "Disregard the move ment of the commander-in chief." Was that not of it self a temporary abdication of command? R'hnt were the captains to understand? It was generally known thrugh the fleet that Sampson was going to see Shafter. If he did not by his action leave Schley in command, he left the flet without any commander at all. That would have been a naval blunder that was inexcusa ble. Indeed it is so serious a thing that in strict ruliug it cannot occur at all. The com maud devolves on the rank r, ing oincer in suc'i a case, without any orders; and be cause a commander is nece sary. It is a case of "the king is dead; long live the king." on a temporary basis. Unquestionably Schley un derstood that he was in com mand. Unquestionably he signed the orders (hat were followed, whether they were standing orders or not. And if he was not in command the grave error was made of leaving a fleet without acorn mander. President R o o s e velt's little juggle will notdo, and it looks the worse be cause of his friendly confer ence with Schley, and t h e manifest impression he crea ted that he would right the wrong which he had been done.

It is yet afflicted with Dea-wettinr, depend upon it. the cause of the difficulty Is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these Important organs. This unpleasant trouble Is due to a diseased condition of th kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as1 most people suppose.
