a Indigestion Causes Ctarrla of tle Stomach For many years it has been supposed that Catarrh of the Stomach caused indigestion and dyspepsia but the truth is exactly the opposite Indigestion causes catarrh Re peated attacks of indigestion inflames the mucous membranes lining the stomach and exposes the nerves of the stomach thus caus ing the glands to secrete mucin instead of the Juices of natural digestion This Is called Catarrh of the Stomach Kdtlol Sjspepsila Qyr relieves all Inflammation of the mucous membranes lining the stomach protects the nerves and cures bad breath sour risings

Correspondence The house spent tho greater part of last week in the consideration of tho revenue bill several evening sessions being hold for that purpose Great headway was made and it is expected that tho house will finish tho considera tion of the bill this week and send it along to tho senate The members of tho latter body have been carefully watching the amendments offered by tho house and tho general belief is that they will be generally accepted there and the bill passed on short consid eration Some of tho objections urged against tho now bill at tho start were that it would increase the taxes of the farmers by taking valuation in the winter when they had a largo amount of grain on hand This was changed by the house and the date of the assessment will bo the same as under the old law Stock under six months of age is expressly exempted from assessment Tho propo sition to mako taxes a first lien on per sonal property from and after tho first of April was changed so that the date is now the first of October The principal contest in the consider ation of the bill therefore hung on the proposition advanced by the Democratic platform that railroads should b o assessed on tho basis of their stocks and bonds The Fusionists were lined up on this question by their party whip and some few Republicans were also caught by the plausible argument The debate on the question lasted two days and on the final vote the fusion arrange ment was defeated by a vote of 58 to 36 the Douglas county members generally joining with the Democrats During the progress of the discussion on this bill it developed that the largest railroad system in the state would under the democratic experiment be assessed practically on a capitalization of 810000 its stocks and bonds having been all withdrawn by the Northern Security company a uon resident corporation This and some other features of tho proposition showed that the Democratic amendment was either foolish or pur posely vicious The leading fusionists admitted that they were advocating it in order to furnish an issue for the com ing campaign The bill as finally amended in this section provides for riving at the valuation of railroads from every obtainable source being more stringent than the old law An attempt was made during the week to have a sifting committee ap pointed in tho house but the move was a failure The members decided that until the revenue bill was out of the way and a start was made on the regular appropriation bills there was no need for the services of a sifting committee It is expected that the appropriation bills will be taken up this week There will be an effort to dispose of them and get them over to the senate in time so as to avoid the haste and confusion which has always marred and some times disgraced the closing hours of past sessions Tho senate has introduced 303 bills and tho house 487 Of these 19 have passed both houses and have been signed by tho governor One bill has received thejveto of the executive The sifting committee of the senate comprises Warner of Dakota Wall of Sherman Day of Nuckolls Way of Platte Hasting of Butler ONeill of Lancaster Hall and Saunders of Doug las It will be the duty of this com mittee to examine the Dills on general file and decide each day which ones shall come up for consideration One of the bill sifted out by the senate committee is II I 13G provid ing for tho depositing of county money in banks on the payment of 2 per cent interest and providing that the money be deposited in banks outside the county where the county banks have pooled and refused to pay interest as has often been the case heretofore There is no question that this bill will reach the governor in a few days will result in the correction of

gLxaiiftrcawumJiiitJi Back Pay For Old Soldiers Washington March 11 Shortly be foro leaving Washington for Nebraska Represontativo olcct G W Norris of tho Fifth district received a letter from an old soldier in McCook enclosing a circu lar letter from n firm of lawyers in this city Tho circular lettor was to tho effect that tho veteran was entitled to collect a sum of money from tho United States government and tho attorneys agreed to mako tho collection upon a contingent feo of 40 per cent Tho amount of the alleged claim and its naturo wero not stated and tho old sol dier was ignorant of any monoy duo him from Uncle Sam Mr Norris was unablo to attend to the matter beforo ho departed and Senator Dietrich consented to investi gate it Tho result of tho investigation reveals tho fact that a number of old soldiers have been credited with certain amounts of back pay because tho dato of muster has been found to have been earlier than tho dato formerly ascer tained and for other reasons Tho amount duo any one soldier is scarcely over more than 100 or S200 and tho cases in point aro not numerous It is thought by tho war department ofiicials that several firms of attorneys have secured lists of names of old sol diers probably from clerks on tho in side and have sent their circular letters broadcast over tho country in tho hope of rounding up a largo numbor of clients for it has been found that many old soldiers who havo received similar letters havo nothing coming to them from the government upon tho grounds suggested In a number of cases ac cording to officials at tho war depart
