What,isao President Cleveland and Speaker Reed are playing politics, or both are acting on an understanding arrived at when they had an extended conference several days ago, is a ques- tion upon which the opinions of prom- inent members of congress do not ag . ree.. Some think s that the president promised to allow the bill .whioh ha o just been passed by the house, making the tariff upon wool. woolens and lumber 60 per cent, of what it was under the McKinley law, and. making a general increase in everythittg, ex- cept sugar, in the present tariff, to go into effect upon the passage of the act anArooreinaitt. in ettect Aug-. 1, 1898, to become a law without his signature (provided it gets through the sen t ate) in return for the authority to iosue 3 per cent. bonds and 3 per cent. treasury certificates which is con- tained in another bill, also jitst passed by the how; others„c,orstend that Mr. Cleveland has been very much sur- prised at the alacrity of the house in adopting his eleventh hour shggestion of working through Christmas week-, and still more so at its promptness in passing these hills. The latter think the president was only trying to place the reaponsibility for the hoedo.he intends issuing upon, congress, and that he expects no legislation. No matter which is right, the bills have now gone to the senato. But they wittiroot he actsl trosoo so hastily there. The tariff bill may get through : the settate, but the bond bill is l ining to have a rough road to travel and the chances are it will be smashed before it reaches the end of the route. At least that is what the present talk of senators indkates o . As was predicted when the exteusion bf the civil service rules to the govern- ing* printing office waa made those rules base come in collision wittothe Typographical union. It is a rule of the union that all printers etnployectin the G. P. 0. shall be members of the typographical union, amid with few ex- ceptions the public printers have ajded the printers in enforcing the rule. But the civil servicerulescontain no recog- nition of the union. They merely nay that Althea; a man or woman, has answered a certain percentage et the questions asked at the periodical exam- ination he or she shall be placed on the eligible list from which all appoint- ments are to be made. The other day a batch of appointments were made by the public printer, and among them were four non-union men. This has upset the union printers. It may he that they can in some way influence the four non-union printers to come into the union, and thus save, for a time the prestige of the G. P. 0. as a union establishment; butailmtever the result in these cases it is only a matter of time when the civil service appoint- ments will make the largest printing office in the world a non-union one. Representative Reech o of Obio, has introduced in the house a bill author- izing the president to invite the presi- dents of the other American republics to appoint plenipotentiaries, with full powers, to meet in conference at the city . of Washington within one year from the approval of the act, for the formal acceptance and declaration o of the Monroe doctrine as a principle,of intcrpational law, the secretary of state to be the plenipotentiary for the United States. A similar hill has been introduced by Senator Allen. Representative Johnson, of Califor- nia, introduced a, bill in the house fer pusprotectionof •American staples and American ships, provides for the payment of a hountyorsoll agri- cultural products exported. The Wit Was endorsed at a conferense,of the representatives of a number of :testi- cultural organization* recently livid here. The announcement that Russia had offered this enuatry $400,000.000 in gold to make it independent of the F,uropead money ring, created a ectisa- ltion irscongress. Although it has not bees oficialist confirtneci it is generally believed t het , the offer wan made. Should the offers he 0. rooted it would create a worse pstn io the Rothschihis crowd than did that Monroe docttine message. stutiseeilai foe the Pin That the m;iiniii s outlook an Neihart is improving. Oleic can not be the . „ 11 slightest douti , Jtoemines at work are every day Hull{ on new men, and there are not enough in camp to satisfy the demand. As an instance of this it might be mentioned that one night last week two mine foremen were looking all over town for a few men to go to work. Au a result of this increased activity the business men are feeling much moreencouraged than they have for some time, for whi-e there is only a slight improvement rt - ported in that line so far, the future is s ) full of 'promise that. there is no \kicking\ about the present. Not fo, ..aany months has the Broad - water mine looked so well as it does at present, aud there will soon be roost for quite a number more men, though no great increase will be made ttntil the upraise from the lower level con- nects with the shaft above—which will be in about three weeks—so that a plentiful supply of good air will be assured. There is some good pro being taken out of this lower tunnel, and there is a full body of it. The sllaft is being sunk right iwore, and it is also of good grade. 'the recent developments in the Broadwater prove conclusively the permanency and depth of the ore bodies here. There is now stoping ground enough opened up to keep a large force of men at Work for two years, and, from indications it is probable that profitable mining can be carried major several thousand feet ! below that. The Benton people have doubled their force in the past two weektiland there is now about 40 men at work on that property, while Superintendent Barker informs us that he still wants more. Ore is being shipped o„t the rate of a car a week, and to those who know the character of the ore that is shipped from the Benton, thia will seem quite large.. 'the Benton has. the name of being the highest grade mine in the state, and with these ship- ments it ought to be producing a good deal of revenue. The Florence paid another dividend last week, making ito. stockholders a present of 3 cents per share on Christ- mas day. All the preliminary work at the 300 in this mine is now about com- pleted and sloping will start soon. The ore is fully equal to that above, which naturally furnishes much satisfaction, both to the mano.wenient and the stockholders. The Galt people are getting out lots of ore these days atol of good grade, too. They did not commencetaking out ore until after • the first of the snonth, but already have shipped eight cars so far, and will make it Iti,before the month is out. This ore all comes front the 1.50 -foot level,, ansl it t Ls, not .probable that they will go lower -until The queen tunnel is completialosnder the metAks. ' An additional man is every now and then, put to work at the Moulton. T,his force, under charge of Orritt.IrOand, is engaged in taking out or from some of the old workings, and they are finding niore than was expected. Whether this small force at work fore- shadows the starting of the Moulton, as rumor bath it, seems at this time rathc, doubtful. .__ ___....—...— cure for Headache. • As a remedy for all forms of head- ache Electric Bitters has proved to be the very hest. It effects a permanent core and the most dreaded habitual pies headaches yield to its inilhence. 'We urge all wDo au afflicted to pro- cure a bottle, and give this remedy a fair trial.

Only 50 cents a bottle at the Wickets Dreg Co. 2 Three men—rank Jones,. John Kin. pa and Charles Jones—were arrested at Butte Monday for stealing ore be- longing to the Anaconda company. The men have been operating for at long time. They would watt until an ore train stopped at Rocker and then ,throw large quantities of ore from the t rain, aftsrwards returning ancrgath- ering up the stolen property, which, as soon as they had secured a sufficient supply, would be shipped to Butte and sold. The men had asprelitninary ex- tamisation Tuesday, and were held to ;the district court in the sum of $5,000. The Discovery,Saved His Life. Mr. G.

There is more catarrh in this section of the country than all other di:asses put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be .inettrable. For a great many years doctors pro-. flounced it a local disease, and pre- scribed local remedies. and by ten - *tautly failing to cure by local treat- tnent, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu- tional disease, and therefore reqnires constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca- tarrh Cure, mantifactured by F. J.
