to take the advice of the Fostum Cereal
Company and change diet. My stomach
never hurt me so 1 thought that was all
'right anyhow; But I learned a thing or

Land Bill Rejected. ' '
This was suspension day and the speaker
recognised Mr. Bates (Pa,), who moved, the
passage, nnder suspension of the rules, of a
bill to provide for the "better separation
and utilisation of public and private lands'
within the limits of railroad land grants
Id the arid region." - '
Mr. Bates explained, that th .'bill was
recommended by the Interior depart
ment,' and permitted the secretary ot the
Interior to exchange arid, aqd semi-arid
It permitted the secretary of the Interior,
be said, to exchange arid and semi-arid
lands within the limits, of rallroaC and
wagon grants for public lands- of equal,
value In order to assemble public and pri
vate lands In mote compact bodies so as
to permit them to be advantageously used.
Mr. Jones (Wash.) protested vigorously
against the consideration ot such an Im
portant ' measure under suspension of the
rules. He declared ' that the amount of
land Involved was from 60,000,000 to 70,000,
000 acres. No man Could tell exactly how
much land was Involved. The proposition,
he said, was to pass with twenty minutes'
debate a bill affecting one-fifth of the pub
lic domain of the United States.
People who had purchased lands from the
railroads now desired the government at
Its expense to segregate them from the
railroad lands In order that they could be
used to - advantage. If they receded th
privilege of exchange they would select the
best, land available., r, , ,
Messrs. Klebprg (Tex.) and Shatroth
(Colo.) also opposed the measure.
The bill was defeated on a viva .voce
vote. '

tion, ot a new, building1 lor the Department
ot Agriculture at a cost of $1,(00,000 passed.
