Tho I.ato Fcnco Treaty.
Washington, Jan. 15. A member of
tho Senato committee on foreign rela
tions stntsd that the general arbitra
tion treaty subject was so vast that it
was ucccssary to glvo tho matter very
close consideration. Ho said that one
phaso might bo instanced: At present
thcro might not bo anything in view
to arbitrate, yet, after general arbitra
tion had been agreed upon, any num
ber of unknown cases might bo pre
sented by ono of tho parties and
numerous claims presented which
were unheard of, might bo brought
forward. Theso unknown quantities
might be a serious objection to making
any definite agreement.
Another case instanced by a senator
who has given the subject some thought
was Cuba. Under certain conditions
the United Stales might desire to take
action regarding the island nnd assert
the Monroe doctrine. Tho European
powers, Great lirltain included, might
dispute the right of the United States,
under tho Monroe doctrine, or nny
other doctrine, to interfere and tho
matter so far as Great Britnin was con
cerned must go to arbitration. Refer
ence was also mado to tho Monroe doc
trine resolutions now pending in the
Senate in which the declaration was
made that the United States reserved
the right to decide when tho doctriue
applied,

camo to Nebraska in 1872. Ho had

Today ho owns 500 neres, all Improved,
fenced and under cultivation. He also
owns a good houso in Aurora, where
ho rives. He savs: "Every dollar I
possess has been made from my farm."
In our "Nkiuiaska llooii" (10 pages
with maps and Illustrations), are doz
ens of statements liko that of Mr. Thor
roll. They aro made by farmers who
havo made a success of fanning. They
show thnt Nebraska is as good a btate
ns any in the Union.
The book in which they nppear is ns
different from the ordinary agricul
tural pamphlet as day is from night.
It is interesting, practical and truthful.
In a straightforward, simple fashion,
it tells you everything you need to
know about Nebraska Its climate,
people, schools, churches, railroads,
markets, soil and crops. It explains
why the Nebraska farmer makes mon
ey in spite of low prices and hard
times. Why land is cheap. And how
It is as easy for an intelligent nnd in
dustrious man to UUY a Nebraska
farm as it is to rent ono in any stato
cast of tho Missouri river.
Every farm renter who wants to be

who is tired ot trying to malco money

On January 1st, 1M7, ho writes as follows:
''I havo been troubled for several years
with a bad cough. I had lung chills and
slisht hiemorrhago of tho lungs and was
threatened with consumption. My mother
nnd two sisters having died with consump
tion, I expected tho samo fnto; but I tried
Dr. Kay's Lunp Halm, prepared by Dr. B.
J. Iviiy Medical Co., Omaha, Neb., and two
25c boxes havo entirely cured mo of my
couzh and soreness of my lungs. That
tired, s'cepy and drowsy feeling is all gouo
and niv appetite Is now pood. I feel well
nnd full of life. I can work night and day
and do not feel tired. Praiso tho Lord for
tho help it has given me. I wrlto this hop
hg If any read It who arc siinllarlyaflltctcd
and have be 11 unable to get help from any
other Ronrccthnt they will try this excellent
remedy, which I believe to be thobestcough
triudlcluo of which I have any knowledge.!'
