WASHINGTON LETTER Proa air Regular Cormpadnt The complete domination ot Congress by the extreme protectionists has been Htri ingly illustrated during the" past, week wht-n the Ways and Means committee h a s been conducting hearings on the hill urged by both the president and the Secretary of War, and which provide, that but 25 per cent, of the Dingley tariff shall be collect ted on sugar and tohrtcco im ported from the Philippine and that other imports from the Philippines shnll bend mi tied duty free. The PresN dent urges this legislation in his message as essential to the welfare of the archapela ago and Secretary T a f t has haunted the halls of Con gress trying to impress their duty in the matter on mem bers of the lower house, but the fact thaf'bea rings" ha v. been held is regarded as indi eating the unwillingness of tbe leaders to permit the pas sage of the bill. The fear of some protected interest, and particularly the Sugar Trust uiay suffer is leading such V e, . prominent uepuoiicans hs Daliel,Gr()svenor, Parneand others to oppose the tneas ureandits chances in t h e House are Indeed slim. The course of certa'n mem oers oi i;ongrets believed to be controlled by railroads is being watched With extreme interest by those who espouse the cause of the people ver sus the grsat common carri er monopolies. The President has made it so plain that no member of Congress can be in doqbt as to bis duty regar ding the railway rate ques tion. The small shipper needs the protection of the federal government against the re bote and discriminations whh?h have built upthgrent trusts of thecountry by meth ods conceived and first prac ted by the Standard Oil Com pany nni sinee adopted by every successful trnst. De spite these fact, however. there seems to be a set deter mlnation toprevent adequate legislation and the opposi tion ia rie'e1oping in most insidious form. Astute mem bers of Congress are resort ing to their favorite taetics ana less wise memners are making their usual b 1 u n- ders The uninitiated Senator or Representative takes it for granted tha t the best way to kill n bill, or defeat a policy is to speak against it, Not so the inttintcd. He appreci ates the danger of such course where the hill or poli cy commands popularrespec and he therefore poses as its friend, but he is toosolici- SAVED FROM TERRIBLE DEATH. The family of Mrs. M. L. Bob bitt of Bargerton Tenn, saw her dy log and Were powerless to save her The most skinful physicians and ey ery remedy used, failed, while con sumption was slowly but surely ta king her life. In this terrible hour Dr. King's New Discovery for con sumption turned despair into joy. The first bottle brought- immediate relief and its coutinucd use complete ly cured her. it's the most certain cure in the world for air throat and lnng troubles , Guaranteed bottles Joe and fi.oo Trial bottles free at LB-BlackburnY tous. VVitli a determination to secure Hull and complete and 'accurate knowledge on be subject" he persists i n witnesses who take up the imeof the committee hav ing the measure in charge un til it becomes too late in the session for action. This is ailed "strangling in commit tee," and is the favorite meth od of Senator Elkins, Repre sentative DalB"ll, Gen. Gros- venor and similar "states men. Another favorite prac ire, especially with meas ures of national importance, and affecting the railroads, is to amend the bill with the professed purpose of strenir heningits provisions, with the real purpose of render tng it unconstitutional so that after the government, has pressed it in the courts at great cost of money and time it will 'all before the Su preme Court of the United Srates. These are the meth ods employed by the astute statesmen, but they have still another to fall back on. As a last resort, they .excite the radicals in Congress to a pitch of enthusiasm wh:ch tit terly beclouds their better judgment and leads them to insist on such extreme legisl lation as to insure ultimate defeat for the measure which they have been instrumental in amending. All of these methods will be employed before the oppo sition will allow tbe remedial railway legislation urged by the President to be placed on the statutes. The friends of the administration and the Democrat, will exercise the utmost vigilence to prevent the success of any of these methods without a complete exposure of the perpetrator. whoever he mav be. Ofcourse a majority will rule iti any eu vent, but it is regarded asal most as important that the snakes in the grass be expos ed to the public gaze as that the legislation itself be enact ed, as such exposure will in sure the ultimate success of the legislative policy. The indications are t h a t the Statehood bill, in which no one is particularly inter ested, other than Senator Beveridge, who is prompted by motives of personal pride, will fail of enactment at this session. It seemscertam that the Democrats in the Senate will v ote solidly against it and a considerable number of Republicans will either v o t e against it or absent themselves if a day is fixed for a yote. In tbe opinion of the Dent' era tic leaders tbe only hope abend of the tneas ure is that it may be shorn of all provisions reterring to Arizona and New Mexico and then passed, so that it will have the effect of creating a A VERY CLOSE CALL. , 'I stuck to my engine, although every joint ached and every nerve was racked with pain,M writes C. W. Bellamy a locomotive fireman, of Burlington lowa, "I was weak and pale without any appetite and all run down. As 1 was about to give up, I got a bottle of Electric Bitters and after taking it, I felt as irood as I ever did in my life,'.' Weak sickly, run down people always gain new life strength and vigor from their use. Try them, -Satis faction guaranteed by M, B. Black burn, fnce 50c single State out of theterri tories of Oklahoma and In dian Territory. Decency and good order have triumphed in the House of. Representatives and arti cles have been adopted im peaching Judge Charles Swayne ot the Northern Dis trict of Florida. There is some 'slight question as to whether the Senate will hear the case this session but the eading lawyers in the upper number believe they nhoulu do so and their views will probably prevail. This will e thefirst impeach men tease heard by,the Senate since the ui peach men t ol Secretary of War Uelknap. in 1876 The lerisbn ol the Hoise to im peach was a noteworthy tri umph for the Democrats, Speaker Cannon and other Republican leaders having exerted their utmost influ ence to save Swayne from tri al, deepite t h e fact that it was unanimously admitted that he had falsified his ex pense accounts and that it was generally believed that he had been guilty of other and more serious offenses. Ti'MC TO THE SYflTKM. For liver troubles and constipation there is nothing better than De- Witt's Little Early Risers, the fa mous Uttle Pills, They don't weak en the stomach, Their action upon the syutem is mild, pleasant and harmless, Bob Moore ot LaFay ette Ind. avn "No ue talking Dc Witt's Little Early Risers do their work. All other pills I have used gripe and make me sick at the stomach and never cured me, De- Witt's Little Early Hisers proved to be the long sought relief. They are simply perfect." Persons trav teing find Little Early Risers the most reliable remedy to carry with lhem. bold by M. B.

'In my opinion Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the best made for eolds, ' says Mrs. Cora. Walker of Porterville, Califoruca, There is no doubt about its being the best No other will cure acold so quickly No other is so sure a preventive o pneumonia. No other is so safe and pleasant to take. These are good reasons why it should be pre f erred to any other. The fact is that few people are satisfied with ai:y other after having once used this remedy, r or sale by I. M. Mo ret. When the Conlederate army was ou its shortest rations Gen Lee remonstrated one day with a straggler for eating green pei- Mramons, and asked him it he di not know that they were unfit food. "1 am not eating them for food, General, replied the man ' but for the eake ol drawing my stomach up to fit my ratons.' CURED of RHEUMATISM. "My mother has been a sufferer for many years from rheumatism' says W, H. Howard of Husband Pennsylvania.

Recognizing that the It quor trffic is thesomce of dts order and ciime, we reaffirm he principles of State regula tion and of adequate police protection now contained in he Watts law Holding that the liquor traffic should not lie forced upon any com muni t.v aguinst its will, we nisi 10UI that on account of the nature ol the traffic and es peciallr its debauching effect upon the fountain of govern. ment, the Miiffroge, every ad vantage whould be given the ausenf temoerance consis tent with tbe rights of self- government. While the sale and manufacture of liquor is allowed now in incorporated towns, it ij the privilege of the governing bodies of both ounties and towns to refuse to issue license. We advocate the extention of the same principle of police power to that, where an incorporated town, through the sale of li quor, becomes a nuisance to neighboring counties, such sale shall be prohibited b.v legislative action.

Wine of Cardui Cured Her. 213 South Prior Street, Atlanta, 6a, March 21, MXft I suffered for four months with extreme nervousness and latiitads.
