2 THE 11 BILL PASSED BT SENATE The Sectarian School Amend ment Rejected. BILL CARRIES $8,414,0C0 Attack oil the Administration by Bell of Colorado. “PATRIO T ISM” AND THE MONOPOLIES Mr. Small, of North Carolina, Delivers a Short Speech on the Agricultural Appropria tion Bill in the House. Farmers Not Prosperous. (By the Associated Press.) Washington, April 9.—After some farth er discussion the Senate today rejected the sectarian school amendment to the Indian Appropriation Bill, offered by Mr. Jones (Deni., Ark.), by a vote of 30 to 16. As has been the practice for two or three years, the “free homes’’ measure was offered as an amendment to the bill, but it was ruled out on the point of order that it was general legislation and there fore not germane to an appropriation bill. Without division the bill was passed. The measure carries about $8,414,000. An unsuccessful effort was made to agree upon a date for a vote on the reso lution relative to the seating of Mr. Quay as a Senator from Pennsylvania. The effort will be renewed tomorrow, when Mr. Chandler probably will ask that two weeks from tomorrow be set for a vote. During the last two hours of the ses sion the Alaskan Civil Code Bill was under consideration. At the opening the bill for the Gov ernment of Hawaii as passed by the House, was presented and ordered print ed. Mr. Cullom said he would not at present ask for a conference. The House Bill to create the North western division of the Northern Judicial District of Georgia was passed. Taking up the Indian Bill, the pending question was the amendment of Mr. Jones (Ark.), authorizing the Secretary of the Interior in certain circumstances to make contracts for the education of Indian pu pils. The amendment had raised the whole question of government support of sectarian schools and had resulted on Saturday in a spirited debate. Mr. Berry spoke against the amendment. The amendment was defeated —16 to 30 as follows: Yeas —Bate. Carter, Clark, (Mont.), Daniel, Hansbrough, Heitfeld, Jones, (Ark.), Kenny, McLaurin, Martin, Money, Morgan, Pettigrew, Taliaferro, Turley and Vest. —16.

Y.), Pritchard, Quarles, Ross, Scott, Shoup, Stewart, Teller, Thurston. —3O. After adopting several minor amend ments the measure was reported from the committee of the whole to the Sen ate and amendments agreed to. The free homes amendment was of fered and defeated and the bill then passed. Consideration of the Alaskan Code Bill was then resumed. Mr. Hoar gave notice that on Tuesday. April 17th. he would address the Senate on the Philippine question. At 5:45 p. m., the Senate adjourned. THE AGRICULTURAL BILL. Good Progress Made After the Close of General Debate. (By The Associated Press.) Washington, April 9.—This was a dull day in the House. The Agricultural Ap -Ist Use Spring When we would like to feel strong - , vigorous and ambitious, we are weak, tired and dull; appetite Take i is poor, food is not relished, sleep does not seem to refresh, we go to bed tired and get up tired. This America's condition is because, of thin, impure, sluggish blood which is unequal to the demands of the body Greatest for more life, vigor, energy, strength. Nature cries for help, and it is to be found in Hood's Sarsaparilla, the Spring great blood purifier, blood enricher, blood vitalize!*. Medicine Be sure to get Hood’s, because it is Peculiar to Itself—and remember,also, propriation Bill was under consideration and was made the vehicle of considera ble desultory debate on political topics, none of which was pertinent to the bill. Good progress was made with the bill after (lie close of general debate, 25 of the thirty-seven pages being covered be fore adjournment. Several minor amend ments were adopted. A resolution of inquiry, calling for fig ures regarding the acreage of land be longing to land grant railroads that was included within forest reserves at. the time of the creation of the reserves, the. amount in lieu scrip issued therefor, etc., was adopted. The information is sought as a basis for contemplated legislation. The House then went into committee of the whole and took up the consideration of the Agricultural Appropriation Bill. Mr. Wadsworth, chairman of the Commit tee on Agriculture, briefly explained the general provisions of the bill, which car ries $4,116,800. Mr. Shattuc (Ohio) in the course of a forty-five minute speech, in denunciation “of the unpatriotic course of the anti imperialists,” paid his respects to Edward Atkinson, of Boston, whom he described as the “former Superintendent of a Massachusetts cotton mill and celebrated as the notorious author of the science of nut'itin and the inventor of the Alatl tin Oven.” Mr. Bell (Colo.), in the course of a general political speech, declared that no President had come so close to wrecking the American Government as Mr. McKin ley. Property interests, he said, had been allowed to run riot. He had become tired of the prating about patriot is n. The object of it all was to benefit special in terests. not the people as a whole. \\ ith out. the use of money and the influence of the great corporations he said this Ad ministration could not succeed itself. After some further remarks on political topics by Messrs. Small, (N. C.), Gaines (Tenn.), Miers, find.): Stokes, (S. C.); Haugen, (Iowa): Robinson, (Ind.); Bailey, (Kansas), and Spalding. (N. D.). general debate was closed and the bill was read: for amendment under the five minute rule. Mr. Latimer (S. C.) moved to increase the appropriation for farmers' bulletins from $85,000 to $105,000. This amend ment created a lively discussion. \\ ith out action on it the House, at 5 o clock adjourned. SMALL ON THE AGRICULTURAL BILL. N. C Democratic Members Can’t Leave House to Attend State Convention. (Special to News and Observer.) Washington. D. C\. April 9.—Represen tative Small today during the debate on the Agricultural Appropriation Bill, made a five-minute speech, which was well re ceived and evoked much applause. Mr. Small said he represented a dis trict, three-fourths of which was devoted to agriculture, and he took a deep inter- ■ est in the pending bill and the people of the country whom it is intended to bene fit. He approved the bill. He said, were it rot for the Agricultural and Postoftice Departments many sections of the coun try would not be aware of the existence of a National Government. He did not believe the agricultural interests, taken as a whole, were in a prosperous condi tion. Cotton, he said, was one of the chief staples in his district, but the ad vance in the price of that article only came after the crop had been disposed of. At the conclusion of his speech. Mr. Small left for North Carolina. He will return Wednesday in time to vote on the Porto Rican Tariff Bill. The Democratic members’ of the North Carolina delegation had fully expected to attend the State convention on Wednes day and had made every preparation to be there, but the action of the Demo cratic caucus last Saturday night, caused a change of program. In the opinion of the North Carolina delegation they deem it a sense of duty to remain here, and be in their seats in the House on Wed nesday to vote on the most important piece of legislation of this Congress, i. e. the Porto Rican tariff infamy, which, as Representative Kluttz said today, may determine the result of the coming Presi dential campaign. It was stated this evening that the Porto Rican Tariff Bill will be called up by the Republicans on Wednesday and a vote ordered after sev eral hours' debate. Every Democrat who has the party welfare at heart will surely be here to vote against the bill, which is in violation of the President's recommen dation for free trade with Porto Rico and which was drawn according to the order cf the trust magnates. Representative Kitcliin. who is now in North Carolina, has Ipeen telegraphed for. He will be here Wednesday. The Committee on Inter-State and For eign Commerce today reported favorably the hill introduced by Representative Bel lamy to authorize Robeson county to construct and maintain a bridge across the Lumber River, between the town of Boardman and the town of Fairbluff in Columbus county. Senator Pritchard today introduced the following hills: Granting a pension of sl2 per month to David W. Roughton: pension of sl2 per month to D. M. Wood house. and to correct military record and grant an honorable discharge to Alexan der Smith. John W. Randleman, a prominent attor ney front Salisbury. North Carolina, is in the city. He was at the White House to day and was presented to the President by Representative Kluttz. Davis’ Report of Labor Riots. (By The Associated Press.) Washington, April 9. —Secretary Root today made public a telegram from Gen eral Davis, the Military Governor of Porto Rico in regard to the recent labor troubles near Sari Juan, but beyond indi cating his private opinion that there is no likelihood of a recurrence of the riots, the Secretary declined to discuss the mat ter for publication. REMARKABLE CURE OF RHEUMATISM Kenna, Jackson Co., W. Va. About, three years ago my wife had an attack of Rheumatism which confined her to her bed for over a month and ren dered her unable to walk a step without assistance, her limbs being swollen to double their normal size. Mr. S. Mad dox insisted on my using Chamberlain's Pain Balm. I purchased a fifty cent bottle and used it according to the directions and the next morning she walked to breakfast without assistance in any man ner, and he has not had a similar at tack since.—A.

Al’iilt U\ 1900. For State Treasurer. To the Editor: The Chatham county delegation will ask the State convention to nominate their county man, Henry A. London, for Treasurer, because of the following reasons: 1. C hatham is one of the oldest and largest counties in the State, and yet, no one of her citizens has ever been elected to any office by the people of North Carolina. It is time that she should have one of her citizens elected to a State office, especially when other counties which have been frequently thus honored are now again claiming ihat honor. 2. Chatham is the most Western coin., ty that has a candidate for Treasurer, and geographically is more entitled to the nomination than the other counties claim ing it. 3. Chatham presents the only candidate for Treasurer, who is not now holding an office, all the other candidates for Treasurer now being office-holders. 4. Chatham’s candidate has never failed 1o vote the straight Democratic ticket, and to work actively in every campaign for thirty-three years, and never before has been a candidate for any nomina tion. 5. His pre-eminent fitness for Treas urer is admitted by all who know him aid he is the candidate representing the Dem ocratic editors of the State, who ask for his nomination as a deserved recognition of their invaluable services. 6. The only ground of objection that any one has alleged against him is that he is a lawyer as well as an editor. This should be in his favor, because the Treas urer ought to he a learned lawyer in or der to construe correctly the revenue and machinery laws for the guidance of the county officers, as required by law.
