Representative Tongue has not been
presenting the various pension cases
that have been sent him to the pension
office, because he wishes to wait until
there is a Republican commissioner.
The Democratic commissioner is not a
very satisfactory person to deal with.
He wanted to be retained in the office,
and when he found that his request was
not. to be considered he was not. very
pleasaut in his relations with congress
men. Senator McBride keeps up his record
as a great bill introducer. He put in
another grist the other day. Among
them were tbe following:
Extending the time for the Blue
Mountain Irrigation Company for the
construction of its reservoirs and canal
through the Umatilla Indian reservation
for five jears; increasing the pay of let
ter carriers, this was a bill which Sena
tor Mitchell pushed whilo he was in con
gress; expending the privilege of bounty
land to persons who served in the Indian
wars of the United States; fixing the
time and regulating the manner in
which accounts between the public lands
states and the government may be made
for the settlement of the proceeds of the
sale ot public land3 to which the states
are entitled.
Senator McBride has made his Astoria
quarantine bill a proposed amendment
to the sundry civil appropriation bill.
It did not get consideration in the house
in tbe last congress, and in this form it
must receive consideration even if it is
defeated. This method gives it a chance.
Shortly after Max Pracbt became sure
that he was to be appointed governor of
Alaska, he went down to the interior
department to see if there were any
other applicants for the place. He
found that thirty-one other gentlemen
had felt themselves about the right size
for Alaskan gubernatorial timber. It is
hard to say whether or not it was dis
couraging to Max. He didn't seem to
be quite Eure that be was to get the
place when he found that eo many other
persons were after it.
Representative Tongue has had the
Pacific university at Forest Grove in
cluded among the institutions which
shall receive public documents of the
government. This is the alma mater of
the first district congressman.
Two years ajo R. J. Warren, a drug
gist at Pleasant Brook, N. Y., bought a
small supply of Chamberlain's Coagh
Remedy. He Eums up the result as fol
lows : "At that time the goods were un
known in this section ; to-day Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is a household
word." It is the same in hundreds of
communities. Where ever tho good
qualities of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy become known the people will have
nothing' else. For sale by Blakeley &

Washington, April 1. The Dingley
tariff bill passed tho house yesterday,
with the amendment making the duties
imposed by the measure effective begin
ning today. When the voting began
the Republicans presented an unbroken
front to the opposition. On the other
hand five Democrats, representatives
from states interested in the sugar
schedule, voted for the measure. One
Populist, Howard of Alabama, also voted
for the bill.
The vote on the final passage of the
bill stood, ayes 205, noes 122, present but
not voting 21 a maj'ority of 83.
The amendment introduced by the
Democrats providing for the suspension
of duties on articles controlled by trusts,
was defeated, every Republican voting
against It. There wag 11 great demon
stration on the floor and in the galleries
of the house when the bill was finally
passed.
