Washington dispatch: Senator Allen,
Representative Mciklejohn nnd General
Manderson called this morning upon
the attorney general, secretary of the
interior and the commissioner of the
general land office in regnrd to the
pending suit of the United States
ugninst'the settlers upon 200,000 acres
of indemnity lands of -the Jturlington
railroad.
Ry the terms of the act of March 2,
ISiui. the title of the railroad to these
lands is confirmed and the title of all
bona fide purchasers to the railroad
lands is also confirmed. The question
of the good faith of the purchasers
under the act named can bedetermined
without suit by the interiordeparttnent
and no suit is needed for such determin
ation. That tiie necessity, in the it
terest of economy and equitable treat
ment, is that the suit which is now
pending in the United States court for
Nebraska should be dismissed was
urged upon the officials. They quite
agreed as to the correctness of the
views expressed and after giving a few
days’ consideration to the subject will
probably order a dismissal of the suit.
druml Army Reunion Date.
The reunion of the Grand Army of
the Republic will'be held the week be
ginning Monday, August 34, 1890. This
date was decided upon at a meeting
held i in Assistant Adjutant General
Gage's office, at the state capital. De
partment Commander Culver met the
location committee of Lincoln and the
matter of location and time was fully
discussed, although the question of the
rlttoe at which to hold the reunion was
left open, to be decided later. There
were present, of the local committee,
John McConnell, K. \V. Johnson, Cap
tain Samuel McOlay. Colonel L. C.
Race, Captain J. \V. Woods, Dr. Hoover
and others. The date set will, it is

sire tovisit the state fair at Omaha and
wish to make but one trip from their
homes, as well as those who intend to
,go on the annual national encamp
ment.

THEY WANT RECIPROCITY.
MANUFACTURING INTERESTS FA
VOR THE BLAINE SYSTEM.
MANY REPLIES RECEIVED.
A Strong Preponderance for the Re
fi#rwal of the Reciprocity Agreement*
an They Kxleteri Under the Mc
Kinley Law -— Commercial
‘Organizations Also Fa
vor Renewal.
Washington, March 23.—Response
ts now being’ made by the commercial
and manufacturing- interests of the
country to the circular letters ad
dressed to them by the ways and
means subcommittee on reciprocity
and commercial treaties, inviting
expressions of opinion as to the advisa
bility of endeavoring to renew the
reciprocity agreements with foreign
countries made under the terms of the
McKinley tariff act. The replies so
far received number seventy-nine,
including large manufacturing con
cerns east of the Mississippi river and
those heavily interested in the export
trade.
mere is a strong’ preponderance of
desire for the renewal of the recip
rocity agreements and in many cases
the writers cite figures to show the
great diminution in their export
trade since the repeal of the provision
of the law under which these agree
ments existed. In few cases is there
any attempt made to conceal the self
interest of the writers in the matter.
For instance among the few concerns
which, oppose reciprocity, is a grain
commission house which'feels that it
will be thus placed in competition
with the great South American
grain producing countries. Another
concern favoring reciprocity, in an
swer. to the direct question writes:
“Decidedly yes. We are more and
more convinced that what we want is
not free trade but fair trade, and the
writer makes this admission after hav
ing been for fifteen years a free
trader. ” Politics crops out in many
of the answers and not a few of the
writers do not hesitate to express
their preference in the matter of the
choice of the next President.
Three great commercial organiza
tions arc on the committee’s list of
correspondents and all of them are re
corded as most emphatically favoring
reciprocity. They are the Millers’
National association of Milwaukee, C.
A. Pillsbury, president; the Cincin
nati chamber of commerce and Mer
chants’ exchange and the Cleveland
chamber of commerce.
Of the seventy-nine replies, sixty
eight are strongly in advocacy of’a
renewal of the reciprocity agreements
as they were under the McKinkw act;
throe are absolutely opposed to any
thing in the nature of reciprocity or
that contemplates discrimination in
trade with the world; four are in
clined to favor a qualified kind of re
ciprocity agreement and four are not
responsive to the direct questions of
the committee and merely take ad
vantage of the opportunity to venti
ate some private grievances.

BAYARD UNDER FIRE.
Resolutions In the Honse that Centura
the Ambassador.
Washington, March 19.—The Am
bassador Bayard censure resolutions
were called up in the House this after
noon by Mr. Hitt of Illinois, who
made a strong speech in support of
them, and was followed by Mr. Mc
Creary of Kentucky, who opened for
the opposition. The latter said that
such resolutions were unprecedented
and an invasion of the rights and
authority of the President. Mr. Bay
ard was not the first diplomatic officer
representing the United States who
had been assailed by his political
opponents while representing his
country in Kngland and a vote
of censure now, prompted by preju
dice and partisanship, would not
hurt him. The purpose was too well
understood. It might prove a garland
of distinction and open the way to him
for higher offices aud greater honors,
idle people of this country knew that
1 homes F. Bayard had proved hitn
seif a patriot,a statesman and a faith
ful public servant,aDd the people were
behind him in his opposition to pro
tection and trusts in far greater num
bers than they were behind those who
sought to condemn and censure him.
To censure Mr. Bayard at this time
would be to detract from the prestige
of this country with Great Britain
when he, as a diplomatic officer, rep
resented this country in negotiations
concerning important questions now
pending. Mr. McCreary concluded as
follows: "When a citizen of our free
country becomes an ambassador or a
minister, should he be required to sur
render or suppress his true senti
ments? Should he not have the right
to speak his sentiments politely and
reapectiuuy, it tney are in accord with
the policy of the government which
he represents? The people of the civ
ilized world are aware of the political,
revolutions which occur in this repub
lic, and they are aware that we do not
have in this country a special diplo
matic corps in office for life, but that
our ambassadors and ministers are ap
pointed by the political party in pow
er. They are men who supported the
Presidents whose commissions they
bear, and they uphold the policies of
his administration. Their views on
these policies should give no offense
at home if they give none abroad. I
am sure the Republican majority of
this House will have more praise for
abstaining from the adoption of the
pending resolutions than they will
have if they adopt them.”
Mr. McCreary was followed by Mr.
Cousins of Iowa, who supported the
censure resolution*.
A kuun; um t'oinouer.

What Mmidrnon Want*.
Washington, March 19.—Ex-Sena
tor Manderson of Nebraska, referring
to the proposition of Senator Thurs
ton relative to the Nebraska delega
tion to St. Louis, says that it simply
places the cart before the horse. “If
I do not go into the convention with
my State behind me,” he continued,
“I will have no status and will not be
entered in the race. As I have said
before, when my State delegation
sees an opportunity to make a nomi
nation by supporting another candi
date, it will be welcome to do so.”

Bellevrn in Recommending Any Medicine
Tliat lie Knows Will Cure His Patients
—Thinks Dr. W illiams' Pink Pills
a Great Discovery—He Cites **
Some Marvelous Cores.
From the Examiner. Lancaster, Pa.
Akron*. Pa., April 24th,'95.
Dr. Williams’ MehIcink Co.:
Gentlemen—While it is entirely contrary
to the custom of the medical profession to
endorse or recommend any of the so-called
proprietary preparations, I shall, never
theless. give you an account of some of my
wonderful experiences with your prepara
tion. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale
People. The fact is well known that med
ical practitioners do not as a rule, recog
nize, much less use. preparations of this
kind, consequently the body of them have
no definite knowledge of their virtue or
lack of it, hut soundly condemn them all
without a trial. Such a course is manifestly
absurd and unjust, and [, for one, propose
to give my patients the best treatment
known to me. for the particular disease
with which they are suffering, no matter
what it is, where or how obtained. I was
first brought to prescribe Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills about two years ago, after hav
ing seen some remarkable results from
their use. Reuben Hoover, now of Read
ing. Pa., was a prominent contractor Hnd
builder. While superintending the work
of erecting a large building during cold
weather, he contracted what was thought
to be sciatica. He first noticed it one
morning in not being able to arise* from
his bed. After the usual treatment for'
-- -■'^4
this disease he failed to improve, but on , 1
*>.---- , f 1
the contrary grew rnpidly worse, the case
developing into Hemiphlegia, or partial
paralysis of the entire right side of the
body. Electricity, tonics and massage, etc.,
were all given atrial, but nothing gave any
benefit, and the paralysis continued. In.
despair he was compelled to hear his phy
sician announce that his case was hopeless.
About that time his wife noticed one of
your advertisements and concluded to try
your Pink Pills.
He had given up hope and it required a
great deal of begging on the part of his
wife to persuade him to take them regu
larly.
He, however, did as she desired, and if
appearances indicate health in this man
one would think be was better than before
his paralysis.
‘Why,’says he,‘X began to improve in.
two days, and in four or five weeks I was
entirely well and at work. ’
Having seen these results I concluded
that such a remedy is surely worth a trial
at the hands of any physician, and conse
quently when a short time later I was
called upon to treat a lady suffering wit hi
palpitation of the heart and great nervoHT
prostration, after the usual remedies faileSC
to relieve, I ordered Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pills. The result was simply astonishing.
Her attacks became less frequent and also
less in severity, until by their nse for a
period of only two months she was the pic
ture of health, rosy-cheeked and bright
eyed, as well as ever, and she has continued
so until today, more than one year since
she took any medicine. I have found these
pills a specific for chorea, or as more com
monly known, St. Vitus’ dance, as benefi
cial results have in all cases marked their
use. As a spring tonic any one who, from
overwork or nervous strain during a loug
winter has become pale and languid, the
Pink Pills will do wonders In brightening
the countenance and in buoying the spirits,
bringing roses to the pallid lips and renew
ing the fountain of youth.
Yours Respectfully,
d iioapct tiuiljr,
J. V. Albright, M. D.
