OMAHA DAILY BEE -MONDAY , APRIL 21 , 1884 , Thousands Hastened to tticif Graves. Relying on testimonials written in viv- i glowing language of some miraculous cures made by sorao largely puffed up doctor or patent medicine has hastened thousands to their graves ; believing in their ul most insane faith that the same miracle will bo performed on thorn , nnd that those testimonials make the cures , while the BO called mcdicino is all the time hastening them to thoirgraves. Wo have avoided publishing testimonials , as Ihoy do not make the euros , although wo have THOUSANDS tir/ON THOUSANDS of thorn , of the most wonderful euros , voluntarily sent us. It is our mcdicino , Hop Bitters , that makes tlio curce. It has never failed nnd never can. Wo will give reference to any ono for any disease eimiliar to their own if desired , or will re fer to any neighbor , as there is not a neighborhood in the known world but can show its curce by Hop Bitters. A LOSINO JOKK. A prominent rihyslctnn of Plltsburi ? until to n lady patient who wna complaining of her continued ill health , and of bin Inability to euro her , jokingly said : "Try Hop Bitters ! " The lady took it ia earnest and used the Bit ters , from which she obtained permanent health. She now laughn nt the doctor for his ioko , but ho la not so well pleased with It , an ft coat hsm a good patient. FKE3 OP DOfJTOIUJ.

WASHINGTON , April ' 19. The speaker aid before the house the following mes- ago from ( ho president , which was ap- iropriatoly referred : In transmitting the apart of the secretary of state in regard a the final awards made by the Into Trench and American claims commission gainst the United States for $025,520 , or the payment of claims of French citi- ons ogaints the United States , the iroaidont recommends the approportion > f that sum to enable the government to ulfill its obligation of the treaty of Janu- ry 10,1880. In transmitting the com munication from the secretary of state olativo to the approaching visit of the pccial embassy from Sium , the president ocommonds an approportion of $85,100 o defray the oxpeascs of the embassy while in this country. In transmitting a ommunicatipn from the secretary ot tate respecting the approaching intor- ational conference at Washington for ho purpose of fixing the meridian proper o be employed by common zero of longi- udo and standard reckoning throughout ho glebe , the president recommended an pprfpriation of $10,000 to defray the ox- > onso of the same. The house then wont | into committee of the whole , Wellborn ( rep. , Tox. ) in the hair , on the bills reported from the committee mittoo on labor. The first bill considered was for the os- .ahlishing and maintaining of la Dor sta- Istica. Mr. Hopkins ( dom. , Pa. ) , chairman of .ho . committee on labor , briefly called at- ention to the provisions of the bill , and o the advantages to bo derived from its > asaago. Tim labor problem was ono of ho most important Questions which do- nmnd and command the consideration of .ho people , and it was the greatest bono- fit ; to all that a department bo established which shall furnish authentic and reliable lata on the subject , and the bill was not n the interest of any school of political conorny. but was intended to compile nformation for the use of protectionist nd f roe trade alike. Mr. O'Neill ( dom. , Mo. ) said the pas- ago of this bill was demanded by the la- loritig men all over the country. They oalized that agriculture had boon recog nized , by the creation of a department of griculturo ; that the signal aorvico pro- ectcd the shipping interests ; that com- norco was bonofitted by a bureau to col- ect information from the consular ofli- ors , and for the part twenty years they md boon asking for a bureau to compile nformation as to labor. The statistical mroau of the treasury department could not accomplish what was needed , and it was a deplorable fact that the portion of ho people who did not work know little of the condition of that largo portion which toiled. Mr. Itoung ( dom. , Tonu. ) proposed to jive the pending bill his most earnest support , but honed it would bo amended so aa to establish a bureau of labor statis tics , as an adjunct to the agricultural de partment. Mr. Woolford ( dom. , Ky. ) said if the object of the bill was nlono to show to the men engaged m labor where they could cot better compensation for their 'work , it would commend itself to every man who loved hi a country , but as he was not thoroughly confident that that alone was the bbject , ho had some hesi tation in giving his unqualified suppori to the measure. If the object was to point out to cupidity where cheap labor could bo found and brought into competition tition with the honest labor of the Ameri can neopln , ho was utterly opposed to it Mr. Belford spoke in ( support of the proposed amendment prohibiting corpo rations from importing foreign labor to ODiiipoto with American citizens , Uo re iterated the statement by him some days ago that tbo riot in Cincinnati had boon the beginning of communism in the coun try. Tito not ut Braddock , Pa. , had boon occasioned by the cupidity of corps- ruuo/ia / in importing foreign laborers to compete with American workmen mid preventing the latter from hayiug a fair chance to earn their honest bread und butter , Mr , Bulford stated that at tv meeting of operatives ut Pittsburg , a se ries of resolutions weto adopted declar ing ( hat while the protective system pro tected the manufacturer , the wages ol the laborer were constantly diminishing. , Mr , Bluunt ( dein. , Gd ) said thuro was { notasiuglo thing in the bill to justify * creating this dopartmunt , or supporting the general purport of the bill. Hi thought a section providing for the in vostigatioti of thot religious views of the aboring classes WAS in plain violation of the spirit of the constitution. The biU then being open to amend ment , Mr. Kasson ( rep. , Iowa ) moved to : hango the word "department" wherever t occurs to "bureau. " ao as to read "bureau of labor statistics. " Adopted. On motion of Mr. Knsson , an amend ment wan also adopted changing "religi ous" to "moral" wherever it occurs. Mr. Bland ( dom. , Ho. ) offered an amendment providing that the bureau shall bo umlor the charge of the presi dent of the Knights of Labor. Mr. Wollor ( t [ . b. , la ) offered as o subatiluto for this amendment a proposi- ion that a commissioner of the bureau shall bo appointed by the president from t list of names to bo presented by the egislativo committee of the federation of abor. After desultory discussion Mr. Wollor withdraw his substitute and Mr. Bland'a amendment wan lost. On motion of Mr. Bayno ( rep. , Pa. ) in amendment was adopted requiring the jurcau to collect full statistics relating x ) immigration and importation of labor. On motion of Mr , Cutchoon ( top. , Mich. ) an amendment was adopted re quiring it to inquire aa to the effect on iroductiou of the shortening of the lours of labor. On mofion of Mr. Warner ( dom. , 0. ) .ho Halarr of the commissioner of labor statistics was reduced to $3,500. Numerous amendments were offered and generally voted down , and although no debate was allowed upon tnom , the committee was tlio scone of a good donl of confusion. Finally the bill waa re ported to the house and passed yeiio 182 , nays 19. It provides for the establishment of a jurcau of labor statistics in charge of a commissioner at a salary of $3,000 , who shall acquire all useful information on the subject of labor , its relations to capital , and moans of promoting thu material , so cial , intellectual and moral prosperity of , ho laboring classes. Ho is authorized to employ such employes as ho may doom locossary for the successful working of ; ho bureau , provided the total expense shall not exceed $2,1)00 ) per annum. Adjourned.

Bad Blood is inclined to come to the surface in the Spring because of the effort made by good old mother nature to thiow it off. If nature does not ha\o help nt his time , the poison may go back to the system and produce all manner of ills ; but by the aid of Swift's SpeciBo the bad blood is nil driven out through the pores of the sliia , nnd permanently tolloves the trouble.

The ealmon season on the Columbia river , opened on the 1st Inst. . and will close on July lUat. It is reported that 1 DOO boats , manned by 3,000 fisboimen , were ready to engage iu the capture of the ( lull on Tuesday of last week. The pursuit of the salmon has become more profitable to the fishermen from year to year , while the canners have been com pelled to work on a steadily decreasing margin. _ In 18G3 , the first year in which the canning of salmon became a recog uuml industry , the cost of fish was 15 emits each , while a case of canned sal inon brought $10 , From that year on there was a steady increase in tha price of the iiali , and just os steady a decrease hi the market piji-i ) of the canned product until 1870 , when fish on the river were quoted ut GO cents each , while a cauo of salmon in first hauds sold for $4 00. Since thun the rate for canned salmon has sison to $5 n case , while thu price of fish has ROIIO up to 00 cents each , that being tho. figure piiid lust year , The cannons claim that tho.buamees becomes unprofitable when tlio fish cost more than 70 cents , for it loquirea four good sized fellows to fill tuo dozen two pound cans. Accordingly , they have always been trying to bear thi > market , for the raw product , generally with ill success , and mainly bccausa the number of canneries has increased f rum year to year. It ia yut too carjy to toll whether there will be any change in thu state of uir < ir8 during tlio present season. List year 1700 boata were eii ai-ed m sal mon catching on the Columbia river and it ia doubtful whether that number will bo exceeded this year.
