T, .; , WASHINGTON LETTER. Proa our Regular Ctrrtipo ade nt. 1 called at the Deinoctntic Congressional headquaiter this morning, to ''spy out" the lay of I he land'S-'nator Jones has gone to Arkansas for a fortnight, leaving Rep resentative Cowherd, of Mis sour, in command; Senator Gorman ste psoverevery day or two from Maryland, Rep resentative Vandiver van here Wednesday but be had to hurry to look after his pa r tfcular protege. Folk, whose enthusiastic approval by the people of Missouri is the talk of the day. Culbertson, of Texas, is here quite unafraid of any hurricane in his stat, Houston, the single member From Deleware, elected be eausp of a Republicnn split is also at headquarters. Fitz gerald of Brooklyn, has just heen here and Broossurd of Louisa na. Cowherd says there are for ty clos districts this year, estimating as "close" asv district which should he changed by the transfer of a thousand votes. Seven of these are in Missouri. It .is believed that Folk's 'run for governor will pull through all imperiled Democrats and give us at least ou more member from the state. Some three or four of the -doubtful are in Illinois but the Re publican scrimmage there will be likely to settle them. I met Martin Enoerich, De mocratic representative from Chicago yesterday. His is a close district, but he very likely will get in again for he is Sublime Post Master Wor shipful Grand Mogul and Royal High Priest of more fraternal societies than any other man in America. He said with a laugh"! am not terrified at thestateof thing in Springfiod one bit. I shall not weep if they keep it up, Isn't it funny though about Cannon?' Republicans think that il they could make him run for Vice-President Sena tor, Governo'- and speaker, they would carry the state." At headquarters your cor respondent ran against Col. Herbert, President Cleve land's SfCtetary of tbeNavy. I asked him what it looked like. He said "Parker this morning, and be evidently measures up to the position. I have no doubt, however, that Cleveland would beelecr ted if he were nominated though there is no reason on earth why he should want it. A tariff so high as to be rob bery has debauched Ihe en tire country. Look at the Republican claoior for ship subsidies. One would think that Jim Hill's dismal expfri enee as confessed b hiniwlf would be enough to put a stop to if. Haven't the fir roers of t bn U, S. a right to send their crops . to loreign markets by th cheapest pos Are they criminals that they sohuld be held up and plun dered nnd punished?" Secretary Shaw in his ao nonl report to Congress last December announced that there would be a surplus of 114,000,000 In the Treasury on July 1st. It is now obri ,..:i ' ;' ' : '': 'v-:''' '.' : ',."''1' ous that the Secretary wns dreaming about what ought to be, instead of declaring what wou!d;be, At any rate Iw got within $66,000.000 of it for it seems certain hat the deficit will be 52,000, 000 The nceipts hive fallen off $17,000,000 in a year nnd the expenditures for or. dinary purposes haveincreas ed about $22,000,000. In cluding the Panama and St. LouN expenditores, the dis bursements are $75,000,000 more than n year ago. In other words, the nation ia heavily in debt, and is going down hill at a .smart pace. When the Democrats inangu rate thir President nxt March the outset party will of course shout, "rt'e have handed to you an overflow ing treasury, and now you are squandering the nation's wealth and bringing on hard timesl" If everj voter will stick hid paragraph in his hat, be will be able to show in a minute which party it is that under the bewildering nonet of "Prosperity!" has dragged the nation to bank ruptcy. Some very lively word slinging is being indulged in by R, H. Pratt, Superintend ent of the Carlisle Indian school, and W. J. McGee the chief American ethnologist of the country and now in charge of Indian affairs nt St, Louis. Pratt says (virtu ally) that ethnologists are doing all they can to keep Indians wild nnd savage. Mc Gee retorts "I brand your statement as wholly false and deem y o u a pusillani mous slanderer," Pratt re joins that McGee is "petu lant and puerile" nnd then he s n e e r s at ethnologists' "alleged discoveries of alleg pel hindering, indurated com plexities of I n t i a n life.'lf the learned combatants con tinue to hurl these elaborate and nbtruse neologians at each other, Sagamore Pratt may have to go into the In dian hospital for dacdalion incurables and Dr. Anita Newcomb McGe return from the siege of Port Arthur to nurse the stricken member of her family. The missiles maj not stick, however; it is cer tain that they will not stick as adhesively as if composed of the fuscous compound whi-rh the Geological Survey, in one of its inspired moments, has alluded to as "that f i n e I y comminuted and thoroughly lixiviated substance which called mud." A Panama Canal is an ex pensive luxury. The plates are now being prepared at the Printing and Engraving Buieau of the. Treasury De partment for the issue of Panama Canal bonds am o u n t ing to $130,000,000 authorized by Congress. They will bear the portrait of the late Senator itinna in grateful recognition of bis service in Retting Th e canal treaty through, and of his method of getting into the Senate. When Congress meets again the Secretay will ask that they be rendered untax able and be called ."consols" this last, of l ourwybfing delicate to adyism refined incense at the foot of the Brit ish throne, These bonds are not to beiosued immediately; the Secretary only wants the plates ready to pass when it is necessary to take up the collection. Just before the Supreme Court dissolved for the sum mer it decided the case of Dorr and O'Bryan of Manila Tby were convicted and sen tenced for libel and were de nied the right of a jury trial, though they were Americans born, and reared. Five of the court confirmed that ver diet; four opposed it. Jus tice'Aarlan held that the Philippines were a part of th 33. S.; that the Constitu tion extended to those Is lands and tharthe right of a jury trial was a fundament al right and could not be ta ken away by CongreBs, He declared that an amendment of the Constitution by the Supreme Court, was a raosj dangerous step leading toun seen perils. ' M, B, BLACKBURN asks the reader o this paper to test the value of Kodol Dyspepsia cure Those persons who have used it and who have been cured by it, do not hesitate to reccommend it to their friends, Kodol digests what you eat cures indigestion dyspepsia and all 1 1 o m a c h troubles. Increases strength by enabling the stomach and digestive organs to contribute to the blood all of the nutriment con tained in the food. , Kodol Dyspep sia cure is pleasant and palatable. Some women sweeten their teu w ft h gossip instead of sugar. It is much easier to run in debt than it is to get out. 'Honesty is the' best poli cy" but so many tail to reul ize the fact. " " FOR A 100 TEARS Or more Witch Hazel has been re cognized as a superior remedy hut it remained for E. C. DeWitt & Co or-Chicago to discover how to com bine the virtues of Witch Hazel with other antiseptics in the form of a siilve. Dc Witt's Witch Hazel salve is the best salve in the world for sores, cuts, burns, bruises and piles.

" Can anything be worse than to feel that every minute will be your last? Such was the experience of Mr S. A. Newson of Decatur Ala. "For two years" she says "I endured in. aufferable pain from indigestion stom ach and boweljtrouble. Death seem ed inevitable when doctors and all remedies failed.

He will not al low himself to be seen, but an intimate friend told the Constitution correspondent he is here. Randolph got be hind in his ohVa, and fearing that lie could not recover, drew $11,000 of money of his office and left After getting into South America, he settled down and bought a piece of land, The man who sold it t i him tried to remove some houses from it, and a tight followed in which Randolph shot the other man to death.

Startling evidence Fresh testimony in great quantity Is constantly coming in, declaring Dr. King s New Discovery for con. sumption coughs and colds to be un equaled. A recent expression from T.J.
