Republicans opposed it, and most of the

the Kepublicans refused to allow the
consideration of amendments to th
bill, the debates ol the lastfew days
wre 01 a general political nature, and
svldreed to the country rather than to
te House. The Democrats at-acked

Republicans, but they were reminded
that when the Democrats were in power,

of Missouri deolared that when, next

they would outdo the Republicans in
eilnneing the minority.
The bill will of course pass the senate

em states there is a strong sentiment in
favor of a canal, as it is believed that
after ita construction, higher prices
could be obtained for cotton, and cotton
goods. For this reason the Southern
Senators, although they condemn the
manner in which the administration
has dealt with Colombia, do not care
to go on record as opponents of any
measure which will hasten the con
struction of the water.
There is much comment here over the
news that United State Senator, Charles
H. Dietnck, republican, from Nebraska
has been indicted by the . Federal grand
jury of Omaha on the charge of bribery
and conspiracy in connection with the
appointment of Jacob Fisher as Post
master of Hastings, Nebraska. It is said
that the Beaator accepted money and
property to the araoant of $1,300 in re
turn for urging Fisher's appointment.
Fineteen of the twenty grand jurors
favored the Indictment The Senator
declares that the cl arge is the result of
a political conspiracy and is doing all in
his power to bave W. 8. Summers, the
United States District Attorney who
prosecuted the case, removed from office.
From the different reports received here
it appears that the Senator erectea a
building in Hastings to wbicb the town
postollice was removed from a building
owned by the Grand Army, who also
owned tne nxtures of the othce. Sena
tor Dieirich rented the ottice for less
than it was thought he ought to receive.
A new postmaster was to be appointed
and Fisher supported his application for
the position by agreeing to buy the fix
tures from the Grand Army and to reim
burse tlie Senator for tbediffurence be
tween what be asked and wh.it be re
ceived as rent for the office. Snch pay
ments w.re made for several months,
when the Senator realizing the question
able character of the transaction return
ed the mony to Fisher and his assistant
postmaster. Fisher claims that the dis
appointed applicants for the place, back
ed by the rival section of the town which
wanted the post oilbe, and bv nolitical
enemies of Senator Dietrich have con
cocted the present charges. However,
it is evident that there were at least
soin" indiscreet irregularities in tha
transaction, and it is well that the
Senator has waived hie constitutional
minunltv to such a prosecution and will
return to Nebraska as soon as possible
to stand trial.
Senator Reed HmiHt nf Utah pnamp t.
have little fear of the great number nf
petitions against him, which continue
to come to the Senate from all parts of
the country. He says, "I am not fo
the least worried nhoit ft, in miii..
There is no just pretext for unseating
me, except uecauseiam a Mormon. I
am not a nolygamist and that featnre
which entered into the Knhorin t rial ra.
suiting in the loss for him of his sea't in
me nouso, cannot ugure in my cafe. I
have taken no secret oath or obligation
to the church recognizing it as superior
to my country. There is no secret oath
administrated and notMstinction is made
by the church regarding the allegiance
between upostleg and other members."

tage of it.
To any one unfamiliar with our low
price, easy payment policy, it would be
a mater of little surprise to find on ex
amining our books, the names of scores
and scores of people working on com
paratively small salaries who are buy
ing choice pianos, instruments whose
names have always heretofore stood for
such high prices that the impression
ve.-y generally prevails they are within
the reach only of people of very consid
erable means. Tnis, than.s to our
email profit, easy payment policy is no
longer the case.
The great mass of the people of the
No 'th west are accustomed to good mu
sic. Nowhere is choice music so highly
appreciated. Our people readily r cog
nize the quality of a piano, and are con
tent with nothing but the best The pi
ano is therefore, frequently by far the
the most costly and most highly prized
article in the home. And rightly so.
Nothing is a better index of culture and
refinement in a family than a good
piano.
That a great proportion ol the homes
of the Northwest are supplied with the
very best pianos is largely due to the
fact that lor years there bave been
placed before buyers by us, the very
choicest pianos, at prices and on terms
tnatanyone caa attord. Prices that
have enabled them to possess such re
gal instruments as the great western
make, the Kimball of Chicago ; the
Weber of New York and the Cbickcring
of Boston j the Vobp, also of Boston, the
Hobart M. Cable, Bush & Gertis, Doll,
Haddorff, etc., etc.
These pianos, and they are the finest
and most reliable made, are the favor
ites of the people of the Northwest.
They are universally found in our
schools and colleges, our lodges and
theatres, and in the studios of our lead
ing musicians
A man makes bis purchase, paying
all the way from $350 to $750 or more.
He then has a piano that will be a source
ot satisiaction to nim tor a htetime. It
affords himself and his family thebebt
social and domestic enjoyment, as well
aa giving to bis chbildrec opportunity
for the very finest musical education,
while our system of easy payments en
ables him to meet bis monthly payments
without any ii,c tnvenience whatever.
Young ladies ho are Belf supporting
purchase their pianos in the same man
ner securing choice and dainty instru
ments, and while they are making their
payments, they are able also, to study
music with the best coachere.
In case of sickness or misfortune, all
necessary extension of time is cheer
fully granted by us.
We are more than glad to have any
one, whether it is with an object of pur
chasing or not, examine onr entire

CORN CKOP AND DISPATCHES
The Crop That Did Not Fall.
Is there a good, big fat, corn crop, a
"husky" crop, if we may so call it and
live? So it seems , bnt it is not the fault
of the prophets who send their divina
tions from Chicago to the newspapers.
By the way, is there much farming in
Chicago now? The. place was pretty
thickly settled the last time we were
there, but it must be a fine corn coun
try. This fall, as in previous falls, Bad
tales of the condition of the corn came
from Chicago. The frost, the crpel
froBt had nipped the greatness of the
corn crop. Nebraska, Illinois, Kansas
and other states too numerous too men
tion were all severely frostbitten. AU
was over with the corn . The conntry's
apprehension was a little relieve 1 by the
remembrance of timilar dispatches in
other Septembers and early Octobers.
There must be Some people in Chicago,
with equally culpable backers in New
York, who make a practice ct pulling a
long mouth about the corn crop. Not
with any view of affecting the market.

FROM SOUTH AFRICA.
New Wayof "Using Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. '
nfr. Arthur Chapman writing from
Durban, Natal, South Africa, says: "As
a proof that Chamberlain's Congh Rem
edy is a cure suitable for old and young,
I pen you the following: a. neighbor
of mine had a child just over two month
old. It had a very bad cough and the
parents did not know what to give it.
I suggested that it they would get a bot
tle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and
put some upon the dummy teat the baby
was sucking it would no doubt cure the
child. This they did and brought about
a quick relief and cuied the baby."
