Expert Treatment With a Prompt and Permanent Cure at the Nominal
Fee-Rate of, $5.00 a Month;
Great numbers of people suffer fre-m the malign poisons of catarrh, as from other, chronic
maladies, without anycorrect or definite idea of the nature of their affliction. The following
.symptoms "have been carefully arranged to enable many sufferers to understand just what it is
that ails them. Many diseases, known under various specific names, arc really of a catarrhal
origin and nature. Every part of the mucous membrane, the nose, the throat, eyesrears, head,
lungs, stomach, liver, bowels, kidney and bladder, are subject to disease and blight by catarrh.
The proper course for sufferers is this: Read these symptoms carefully over, mark those that
apply to your case and bring this With youto Drs. Copcland and Montgomery. If you live away
from the city, send them by mail, and ask for mail treatment. In either instance, and whether
by mail or office treatment, the patient may be assured of the speediest relief and cure possible

THE DEMOCRATS DID NOT VOTE
Defeat of Smith's Express-Receipt
Amendment Tlie Pension Ap
propriation Bill Warn Passed
in Thirteen Minutes.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 15. The House to
day passed the war revenue reduction bilL
The opposition sought to recommit the
bill with instructions to report back a
measure reducing the revenue at least
$70,000,000 and Including a provision for
an income tax, so drawn as to escape an
adverse decision of the Supreme Court.
The motion failed, 131 to 155. Thereupon
the bill was passed without the concur
rence of the minority, who refrained from
voting. The amendments placed in the
bill jesterday to tax express receipts was
defeated on an aye and no vote in the
House, 125 to 139. The pension approprla-'j
tlon bill, carrying 5145,115,30, was passed
In exactly 13 minutes.
Robert TV. Wilcox, the Delegate from
Hawaii, was sworn in immediately after
the approval of the journal in the House.
"Wiloox was escorted to the bar of the
House by Perea, the Delegate from New
.Mexico. After the oath had been admin
istered, many members came forward to
congratulate Wilcox. The consideration of
the war revenue reduction bill -was then
resumed.
Underwood (Dem. Ala.) mo ed to reduce
the amount of property exempt under the
inheritance tax from $10,000 to $5000.
Payne (Rep. N. Y.), In charge of the
bill, said that personally he thought the
Inheritance tax should not have gone in
the original act, as the states generally,
and especially the Eastern states, levied
heavy inheritance taxes. But, if it was to
remain, he was opposed to reducing the
exemption to $5000. The amendment was
lost, 45 to 83
Powers (Rep. "Vt.) offered an amendment
providinir that the inheritance tax should
not be levied on the estates of persons
who died prior to June 13, 1S98. It was
adopted, 80 to ISO.
Newlands (Sll. Nev.) offered a modifica
tion of the amendment he presented yes
terday to tax industrial corporations,
whose cross receipts exceed $509,000, one
twentieth of one per cent upon such re
ceipts. His purpose, he said, was to reach
the great aggregations of wealth.
"The real purpose of this amendment is
to apply an Inquisition to Incorporations',
is it not?" demanded Pearce (Rep. Mo.).
"Its purpose," replied Newlands, "Is
both to raise revenue and to secure some
thing upon which to base relative legisla
tion." "Has the gentleman changed his mld
since he signed the report saying the pend
ing bill would raise too much revenue?"
asked Payne.
"My objection to the pending bill," re
sponded Newlands, "Ls two-fold. It raises
too much revenue and it does not raise
it from the proper sources."
Grosvenor (Rep. O.) opposed the amend
ment. He expressed the hODe that the
House wouldr.ot attempt to .make In
roads upon industrial corporations with
out investigation by the proper commit
tee of the House. "Why attack Industrial
corporations?" he asked.
"If you will frame an amendment that
will reach every -corporation or eery in
come, I will vote for it," observed New
lands, amid applause.
Grosvenor said he might favor an In
come tax if it were constitutional, but
said it was futile to discuss an income
tax after the decision of the .Supreme
Court.
Sulzer (Dem. N. Y.) supported the New
lands amendment. He was in faor of
exempting consumption and compelling
the big corporations to boar their hare
of tax burdens. He favored a graduated
corporation tax. The amendment was lost,
75 to 150.
Fitzgorald (Dem. Mass.) moved to
strike out the lax of 10 cents per pound
on tea. Pajne opposed the amendment.
The tax on fea, he said, raised about
$9,000,000 of revenue, and for 10 years had
been asked for by the tea trade. The
amendment was defeated, 86 to 76.
After the bill had been read Levy (Dem.
N. Y.) offered a substitute fixing the tax
on beer at $1 50 per barrel, C cents upon
tobacco and snuff, and repealing' all the
other sections of the war revenue ac
The substitute was defeated without di
vision. After the bill had been reported to the
House, Payne demanded a separate vote
on the Smith amendment placing a tax of
1 cent on each express package.
Underwood demanded a separate vote
on the Powers inheritance tax act, which
specifically exempted the estates of per
sons who died prior to June 13, 1SK. On
an aje and no vote, the House reversed
its action of yesterday and defeated the
Smith express receipt tax amendment,
125 to 186 The Powers amondment was
adopted, St to 53.
Richardson (Dem. Tenn.), on behalf of
the minority, then movea to recommit
the bill with instructions "to forthwith
report a bill reducing the revenues under
a war revenue act at least the sum of
$70,000,000. the taxes remaining to be so
apportioned as to be more equally and
jusuy msiriDuteu, ana remove them from
the articles most necessary to life and
which enter generally into consumption."
The committee also included a provision
in the bill so as to accomplish the just
ends of an Income tax and et escape the
decision of the Supreme- Court of the
United States in the cases growing out
of the Wilson tariff bill.
Hopkins (Rep. TIL) observed facetious
ly that the motion was subject to a point
of order. "It instructs the committee to
report back an income tax provision that
will circumvent the decision of the Su
preme Court," said he. "Plainly that is
requiring the committee to , perform an
Impossibility "
The motion to recommit was lost, 131
to 1S5.
The bill was then passed, the Demo
crats refraining from voting.
On motion of Barney (Rep. Wis), the
House went back into committee of the
whole and took up the consideration of
the pension appropriation bill. Barney
stated that there was no new legislation
In the bill. It was an exact copy of the
bill for the current yoar, both as to lan
guage and amount. It carried $145,145,290.
The bill was read through and passed
without debate or amendment in exactly
13 minutes The Speaker announced the
resignation of Marsh (Rep 111.) as a
member of the Booz investigating com
mittee, and Dick (Rep. O.) was appointed
in his stead Dick becomes chairman of
the committee.
At S:35 P. M. the House adjourned.
Bankruptcy Amendment Postponed.
WASHINGTON, Dec 15. The Senate
and House Committees on Judiciary have
reached an agreement to postpone con
sideration of the Bay bill for the amend
ment of the bankruptcy law until the
next Congress. The bill was drawn on
the recommendation of the National As
sociation of Referees, the mpmbers of
which wer appointed under the terms of
the bilL It provides recommendations for
defects in the law so far as they have
come to the surface, but there are now
bankruptcy matters before the United
States Supremo Court, the decision of
which may make necessary amendments
other than those suggested.

SIXTY-FIFTH POLICE" PRECINCT,
GREATER NEW YORK, Oct. 11. 1900.
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Blnghamton. N. Y.:
Gentlemen In justice to you, I feel it is my duty to send you an acknowledg
ment of the receipt of the sample bottle of Swamp-Root you so kindly sent me.
I had been out of health for the past five years w ith kidney and bladder trouble.
-Had our best physicians prescribe for me. They would relieve me for the time be
ing, but the old complaint would in a short time return again. I sent for a sample
bottle of Swamp-Root, and I found it did me a world of good. Since then I have
taken S small bottles bought at my drug store, and I consider myself perfectly
cured. It seemed as though my back would break In two after stooping. I do not
have to get up during the night to urinate, as I formerly did threb or four times d
night, but now sleep the sleep of peace. My back Is all right again, and In every
way I am a new man. Two of my brother officers are still using Swamp-Root.
They, like myself, cannot say too much in praise of it. It is a boon to mankind.
We recommend it to all humanity who are suffering from kidney and .bladder dis
eases. My brother officers (whose signatures accompany this letter), as well as my
self, thank you for the blessing you have brought to the human race in the com
pounding of Swamp-Root. We remain, yours very truly,

Women as Well as Men Are Made Miserable by Kidney
and Bladder Trouble.
"You have no idea how well I feel. I
am satisfied that I do not need any more
medicine, as I am in as good health as I
ever was In my life." So says Mrs. Mary
Englehardt, of 2S35 Madison street, St.
Louis, Mo., to a reporter of the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat.
i'For more than 10 years I had suffered
with what the doctors termed female
trouble; also heart trouble, with swelling
of the feet and limbs. Last Summer I felt
so badly that I thought I had not long to
live. I consulted doctor after doctor and
took their medicines, but felt no better.
The physicians told mo my kidneys were
not affected, but I felt sure that they were
the cause of my trouble. A friend recom
mended me to try Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, and I must say I derived immense
benefits almost from the first week. I
continued the medicine, taking it regu
larly, and I am now in splendid health.
The pains and aches have all gone. I
have recommended Swamp-Root to all
my friends, and told them what it ha3
done for me. I will gladly answer any
Uone who desires to write me regarding
my case. I most heartily Indorse Swamp
Root from every standpoint. There is

Slim Attendance in the Senate Ye
terdny Many More Amend
ments Offered.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15. The Senate
transacted no business of importance to
day In open session, the entire time being
spent in executive session on the Hay
Pauncefoto treaty.
Nelson (Rep. Minn.) gave notice when
the Senate convened that January 12 he
would present resolutions relative to the
death of his colleague, air. Davis, and
ask that business be suspended to pro
nounco eulogies on the distinguished serv
ices of the deceased.
A bill was passed amending the criminal
laws of the District of Columbia relative
to the deposit of money as surety.
Considerable minor routine business was
disposed of, and then, at 12.25 P. M., on
motion of Lodge (Rep. Mass.) the Senate
went into executive session.
Teller (Sll. Colo.), continued his argu
ment against the treaty. He contended
irtr?vPXh!m0J f, "SfL!!! wbrga5 !
A treaty at any time, and said it would i
he perfectly competent for the United
States to cancel arbitrarily the agreement
with Great Britain whenever this country
might deem It desirable.
After the proceedings had continued for
some time, and when it became apparent
that many Senators were not in the cham
ber, the absence of a quorum was sug
gested, and when the call brought in a
sufficient number to allow business to
proceed, a mild filibuster was started to
secure an adjournment until Monday. It
is the opinion of the friends of the treaty
that its opponents are trying now to find
means of postponing the final vote on the
treaty until after the holidays. At 2
o'clock there was a motion to adjourn
and the aye and no vote was demanded
upon it, . The motion was voted down.
Efforts were made to reach aji agreement
for a vote on the treaty, but they were
unavailing. At 2 45 P. M. the Senate ad
journed. After the session Lodge expressed him
self as confident of securing an agreement
to vole before the holiday adjournment.
In addition to the amendments to the
treaty suggested by the committee on for
eign relations, the following have been
offered by individual Senators:
By both Elklns and Penrose Insert at
the end of section 5, of article 1. to follow
the amendment proposed by the commit
tee and adopted in committee of the
whole, the following: "But nothing con
tained in this treaty shall be construed
to prevent the United States from ac
quiring at ny time sufficient territory
and sovereignty over the same upon which
to build, manage, operate, defend, fortify,
protect and control said canal, or for any
further purpose as the United States may
deem best in its own interests."
By Beveridge Amend by striking out
article 3 of the proposed convention.
By Allan Amend article 1 by striking
out the word "under, ' in line 33, "page 2,
and inserting the word "by"; strike out
the words, "auspices of the, at the be
ginning1 of line 14, and ihe words "either

and etrlke out the following in lines 13,
16 and IT: "Or by gift or loan of money
to individuals or corporations, or through
subscriptions to or purchase of stock or
shares," so that when thus amended the
article will read as follows: "Article 1

to the provisions of the present conven

of providing for the regulation and man

By Tillman Amend by striking out the
amendment reported by the committee
and adopted in committee of the whole
and Inserting at end of article 2 the fol
lowing: "It is agreed, however, that none
of -the foregoing conditions and stipula

necessary to take for securing by Its own
forces the defense of the United States
and the defense of public order."
By Butler Amend by striking out sec
tion 7, of article 2, of proposed conven

amendment, which he said he would offer
Monday next, when he would address the
Senate on the subject: "If the Govern

at Its own expense, the said canal, then
nothing herein contained shall prevent
the United States from protecting said

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15. The HouseJ
today
and by a vote of six to Ave expressed a
preference for leaving the representation
of the House of Representath es at 257, as
at present. This vote was not considered
a finality, however, as several members
were not present, but was taken nomi
nally as a preliminary test of the senti

ber of bills before the committee, nut
the main discussion turned on the Hop
kins bill, keeping tho total of the House
as at present, and the Burleigh bill, in
creasing the total. The vote was taken
on the issue between leaving the House
as at present or increasing without refer
ence to any particular bill. In order tq
permit absent members to be present. and
vote, the committee adjourned untft 2
o'clock Monday. Chairman Hopkins says
he hopes a favorable report will be agreed
upon at that time, in which case he will
report the bill at once and endeavor to
take It up in'the House next Tuesday.
The advocates of increasing the mem
bership pf the House do not consider tho
vote of today as in any way decisive, as
one of the absent members was quoted
at the meeting as favorable to an. in

said to he doubtful, but rather inclined to

taken, those seklng an Increase moved
an adjournment in order to postpone final
action. They succeeded In this, carrying

Another matter of importance to come

CnndldnteN for Speaker of House.
The leading candidates for the Speaker
ship of the lower house are R. B. Albert
son, of King; J. H. Easterday, of Pierce;
A. J. Falknor, of Thurston, and Harry
Rosenhaupt, of Spokane. Mr. Rosenhaupt
Is an aQwed Wilson man, which elimi
nates him from the race without further
discussion. Mr. Falknor lives In Olympia
and is identified witlv the much-mooted
state capitol matter. Moreover, his home
delegation consists of only one member
Reside himself and he is thus deprived
.of any i great home.support wherewith to
make combinations.
The contest would thus seem to be be
tween Messrs. AlbertsOn and Easterday,
with the chances In favor Of the former.
There is some opposition toward giving
the honor to this county, however, and
the choice may fall upon either Mr.
Easterday or a dark horse.
For yew State Capitol.
Another effort will be made, without
doubt, to secure an appropriation for the
building of a state capitol. Governor
Rogers' well-known Tiostlllty to the peo
ple of Olympia Is said to have modified
somewhat, and an agreement may be
reached between him and the Olympia
business men whereby he will sign a bill
I tor the erection of a substantial, though
not costly, capitol. Two years ago he
advocated the purchase of the Olympia
Courthouse for a capitol building, and
he says he is oil 11 in favor of that plan.
This Is a matter concerning which little
will be said or done until the Legtslar

- WANTS HIS CHURCH BACK.

DETROIT, Dec. lo.-James E. Scripps
who built Trinity Reformed Episcopal
Church, a handsome stone structure ad
joining hlft.h6me, at a cost of about $90,
000. and who delivered it to the Episcopal
charge of Bishop Davis, of the diocese
of Michigan about three years ago, some
time ago wrote a letter to the wardens,
and vestrymen, asking them to return the
property td Elm. This request ha3 not
been complied with, and he has Instruct
ed his attorney to prepare a bill In equity1
to ask the courts ta compel the wardens
and vestrymen -tar -turn, tho property over
to him. Mr. Scripps claims that the
church was built and delivered to the so-,
clety with the understanding that no high
church -services shoum ne neia tnerein.
This understanding. Mr. Scripps says, has
been violated, and he has withdrawn from
the church In conrequence. He demands
the return of the property in order that
the service for which it was designed may
be held there. Rev. Walter Hudson, the
rector, is now considering calls from

days Dr. Goebel, of Tacoma, has been
in Washington endeavoring to secure a
right of way across a portion of Ihe

A special agent of 'the department will
be sent to the section of the park which Is

the ore from the mine to the main rail-
road, and facilitate Its handling, with a
view to developing the mine, now handi
capped, because of its remote and inac
