In the hearings before the ways and means committee MeMillin was the head and front of the democratic side, consequently was highly conver¬ sant with the subject in hand. Mr. MeMillin prefaced bis remarks with some figures to prove that there was a sufficient surplus ($118,000,000 exclusive of the gold reserve) in the treasury ficiencies to meet all estimated de- for two years, and that the alleged necessity for this hill was a t® .i-- „ 10 BUgar sche<lule , , , \r, xT;ir > 1 111 ’ onn “ occasion to quote Mc- Kinley, Payne, Grosvenor and other leaden; who, when the McKinley hill was under consideration seven years ago, spoke ns eloquently in favor of putting sugar on the .free list, point- ing out the great benefits to the people that would result from such an act. “In that debate the republicans took position directly opposite to that diich they now occupy, and were hit- Iter in llieir arraignment, of such a tariff as they are now advocating. The republicans squirmed and wriggled, and even JDinglev, who is ever cool I I and self possessed, lost his temper tnis time.” MeMillin took a strong stand against the tariff on nuv cotton which hal been advocated, contending that I it meant a surrender of democratic j principles. He went into details con¬ I cerning certain schedules, showing that almost uniformly the bill puts the ! heaviest rate on the necessities,letting the luxuries down light.

Allen, of Nebraska, Wants Civil Service JT.ii av Repealed. The senate spent only half an hour in open session Wednesday, the re¬ mainder of the timo being given to (lie consideration of the arbitration treaty behind closed doors. The agricultural appropriation bill —one of tho four money bills that failed at the last session— was reported back in the sliapo in which it passed the house last week, and was placed on the calendar. It will be acted on at an early day. The attack upon the civil service law and its administration, which dis¬ tinguished Tuesday’s proceedings, was followed up by tho introduc¬ tion of two hills alone by Mr. Allen, populist, of Nebraska, for the repeal and annulment of tlse law, and of all executive orders issued under it; and the other by Mr. Pritchard, republican, of North Carolina, chairman of tho committee on civil service and retrench¬ ment, modifying it in its application to [ the A government bill prohibiting printing the exhibition, office. in the District of Columbia, of kineto- acope illustrations of prize fights, and also prohibiting the transportation of materials therefor through the mails or through the avenues of inter-state commerce, was introduced by Mr. Hoar, republican, of Massachusetts, and was referred to the judiciary com¬ mittee. AAV A IT GOVERNOR’S APPROVAL. Tennessee’s Caucus Flection Bills Passed by Legislature. Tho last of the caucus election bills got through tho Tennessee house of representatives Tuesday and as they had previously passed by the senate, now go to the governor for his ap¬ proval. One makes the election or secret ’’idiot law co-exteusive with the regi s- ,ra tiou law; the other provides that iu those counties having registration com* missioners, the commissioners shall appoint the judges and clerks of elec- f 'on. Mr. Rodger’s amendment that tho judges and clerks must bo men of integrity and able to read and write was laid on the table. All the election machinery is now in the hands of the governor, as he appoints either registration or eleo- tien commissioners in each county and they, in turn, select all judges and clerks of elections.

BILL IS INTRODUCED BY DINGLEY. The Men nitre J« a "Lengthy One and Was Head in Full—Chairman Ding- ley’s Opening Speech. What will go down in history as the tariff debate of 1807 began in the house at 10 o’clock Monday morning. By the terms of the rule under which tl10 house was to operate during the consideration of the bill, the house immediately resolved itself into a com- mittee of the whole, and the speaker conferred upon Mr. Sherman (Rep.), New York, the distinguished honor of presiding over the committee, Those who expected the debate to be- immediately were disappointed. 'Hie leaders decided not to dispense with the reading of the hill, but to have it read in full at the outset in order to disarm the criticism ] assed on the previous hills that they were put through without even having been read in the house. The spectators in the galleries and the members on the floor waited while the clerk droned through the 2G8 pages of the bill. The reading of the bill consumed a little over two hours, so that it was a little after 12:20 before the leader of the majority, Mr. Dingley, was recog¬ nized to open the debate. Mr. Dingley began by stating that congress having been convened in ex¬ tra session, the facts which had led to the issuance of the president’s mes¬ sage were: i i Thattlio government revenues dur¬ ing tiie past four years had been in¬ sufficient to meet expenditures to tho extent of more than $200,000,000, or an average of $50,000,000 per annum; that this deficiency will continue to grow under existing conditions; that the deficiency has been met by borrow¬ ing, that is by bond sales, and that this has promoted distrust, intensified and prolonged the run on the treasury, and the weakening of. business confi¬ dence. This deficiency of reserve, said Mr. Dingley, has nearly all arisen from a falling off in revenue duties on imports, and not from a decline of revenue from internal taxes. In revising the tariff he said the members of the committee have en¬ deavored to discard mere theories and have addressed themselves to the framing of a practical remedy, at least in part, for the ills which have for so many months overshadowed the country. “It is a condition and not a theory which confronts ns. Our problem is to provide adequate revenue from du¬ ties on imports to carry on the gov¬ ernment and in imposing these duties to take such measures as shall secure just protection to our own people in the production and manufacture of such as we can produce or make for ourselves with natural advantages and thus provide more abundant oppor¬ tunities for our own labor. “No economic policy will prove a success, unless it shall in some man¬ ner contribute to opening up employ¬ ment to the masses of the people at good wages. When this shall be ac¬ complished and thus the purchasing power of the masses restored, then— and not til! then—prices will cease to feel the depressing effect of undercon¬ sumption, and tho prosperity of our peoplo rise to the standard of 1892. Mr. Dingley then read some statis¬ tics relative to the importations and tariff on wools and said that by placing wool on tho free list, the treasury lost $21,000,000 revenue and the farmer $30,000,000 per year, and that this country had not. been able to increase its exports of manufactures of wool. It had been claimed, he said, that tho price of clothing had been reduced, but this was only iu appearance, be- cause people had been deprived of work and wages and found it harder to buy clothing than before. This would aid the woo! grower, increase manufactures and ultimately increase the revenue. Speaking of tho sugar schedule, Mr. Dingley said it would increase the reve¬ nue and encourage such production in this country. Continuing, Mr. Dingley said: “For tho most part the increase of duties in the pending bill over the figures in the tariff of 1890 have been in the para¬ graphs in luxuries like tobacco, liquors, silks, laces, etc., which being articles of voluntary consumption, are always regarded as objects which will bear the highest duties. Mr. Dingley then briefly touches upon some schedules which had not been materially changed from the present law. These include, iron, steel and cotton. “So far as possible tho aim has been to avoid .exclusively ad valorem duties on articles which have been notorious¬ ly under valued and thus failed to pay the duties. The better class of lm- porters have united with manufactur¬ ers and administrators o£ the law in asking this. Mr. Dingley discussed at some length the ad valorem and specifio duties, and presented figures showing how disadvantageous!}- the ad valorem system worked. Ho them presented the estimates as to the probable rev¬ enue that would bo raised by the bill, which were given in his report, with tho supplemental statement that the second year the bill would yield $100,000,000 increased revenue. “In all other schedules,” continued Mr. Dingley, “the ”ates proposed iu tiie pending bill arc between tho rates of tar iff of 1890 and the present law. In closing Mr. Dingley said: “It. u. nst be obvious from any p.oint of view that prompt action by the two houses of congress is indispensable to secure revenue which the pending Dill is intended to yield. The exigency is an unusual one. Tho people, without regard to party affiliations, are asking for notion. Business awaits our final decision. With this great question of a lequate revenue to cany on the gov¬ ernment settled favorably 1 y such r.n adjustment cf tho duties as will restore to our own people what has been sur¬ rendered to others during the past font years. A YARN OF THE ROAO. The Merchant Found the Signal Was No Good on the Return Trip. “A good story is’ told of a Chicago merchant," said the ambassador of a Greater New. York mercantile house. “He had to go unexpectedly to St. Louis on account of a ‘lame duck,’ and meet¬ ing a drummer from that ambitious and rather gay Missouri town, he said: “ ‘How do you feliows manage to get such cheap fares to distant points? I want to go to St. Louis, but the price is rather stiff.’ “ ‘I’ll fix that for you,’ replied the drummer. ‘Give me $5 and I’ll enroll your name as a member of the T. P. A. Then you can travel whenever you like free.’ “The merchant gladly handed out his $5, with which his friend secretly bought him a ticket to St. Louis. He accompanied him to the train. ‘Now,’ said he, ‘when the conductor comes all you have to do is to move your hand across your mouth from right to left and say “Yuno.’’ He will then know you are a T. P. A. and you will have ho further trouble.’ “To the conductor, however, the drummer said: ‘That man with side whiskers ia a harmless lunatic. Here is his ticket to St. Louis. When you come around he will make this motion and say, “Yuno.” Just pas3 him and say nothing. He likes to believe that is a mystic pass and which always allows him to ride free.’ “The plan worked to a charm, and the merchant marveled at the scheme which made travel so easy and chea.p. "On his return from St. Louis another conductor asked for his ticket. “ ‘Yuno,’ said the merchant, making the prescribed gesture. The conductor didn’t know, however, and after sever¬ al frantic attempts the merchant had to pay his fare. On his arrival in Chicago he hunted up his friend, the drummer. “ ‘Say,’ he cried, ‘what kind of a trick did you play me? Why, the plan didn’t work for a cent coming home.’ “ ‘That’s strange,’ replied the other. ‘You must have made some mistake. What did you do coming back?’ “ ‘Why, I made the pass with my hand across my mouth and said “Yuno.” ’ “ ‘Did you move your hand from right to left?’ “ ‘Yes, of course.’ “ ‘That’s where you made a blunder. You see, yon were coming back, and you should have passed your hand mouth from left to right.’ ” across your —Detroit Free Press.

Women, And Consider the All-important Fact, I f That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are con* 1 fiding your private ills to a woman—a woman whose experience in treating woman’s diseases is greater than that of any liv¬ t ing physician—male or female. Yon can talk freely to a woman V, v, private when it troubles is revolting to man—besides, relate your to a a man does not understand—simply because ho is a man. Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, know¬ ing full well that they ought to have w immediate assistance, hut a natural modesty impels them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probably examinations of even A their family physician. It is unneces¬ v sary. Without money or price you can consult a woman, whoso fey- knowledge from actual experi¬ ence is greater than any local physician in the world. The fol¬ lowing invitation is freely offered; accept it in the same spirit: MRS. PINKHAM’S STANDING INVITATION. Women suffering from any form of female weakness arc invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women only. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman; thus has been established the eternal confidence be¬ tween Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Out of the vast volume of experience which she has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained tho very knowledge that will help your ease. She asks nothing in return except your good-will, and her advice ha 3 relieved thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she does not take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.—Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass.
