The Republicans in the U. S. Sen ate are doing their utmost to guarantee long continued business depres sion l.y flllibustering against the pas sage of the tariff bill.

The general opinion is that the uncertainty regarding tarifl - legislation is the great cause of business depression. If tins is true, and no one successfully contradicts it, the Re publicans are solely responsible for the continued depression—had it not been for Republican filibustering the new tariff law would have been passed

His motion didn’t meet with favor, as the other City Dads are not built that way, with the sole exception of Councilman Bridges, of the second ward, who desired to have it known that he favored reducing the pay of the Mayor, Treasurer and Clerk.

Obituary. We are called to mourn the loss of another of our loved ones. Florence, eldest daughter of Lewis M. and Rebecca Buis, died of consumption, at her home in Mill Creek township, April 19, IS'.M, at the age of 34 years, H months and 16 days. She leaves father, mother, six brothers and two sisters to mourn because they shall see her face no more. She had made no profession of religion, hut the quiet and calm resignation which took possession of her the day before her death gives hope that this suffer ing life is exchanged for a better one beyond. This stroke seems more than v,. car; hear, for sh*» w«s lovely in all the relations of life, and we are willing to trust her in the hands o! the Lord. Some time before her death .-ho cafi'.’d her friends to her bedside, told them that she could stay with them hut a little while at most, and then bid them all good-by. She had the greatest regard for hei father and mother, ami regreted to leave them. She told her brothers and sisters to be good to father and mother as long as they lived. Slie then made disposition of her family keepsakes, told where she wished to he buried and how to dress her, and said if there was any person who desired to talk to her about dying that she was ready to tell them that she was willing to go. She then prayed for death to come to her relief.

The Progress Madr on Various Measures of Importance In the Senate iiud Hooso Dally Prooeedlng* llrietly Berorded.

8KNATBL Washington, May Ik—The senate yesterday passed a resolution to investigate the charges ot attempted bribery, of the alleged contribution of funds for campaign purposes by the sugar trust, of the reports that senators hare speculated In sugar stock and all other charges deemed worthy of consideration. The investigating committee is as follows: Democrats—Gray (DeL), Lindsay (Ky.); republicans— Lodge (Mass.) and Davis (Minn.); populist—Allen (Neb.). A bill providing for the admission of Utah as a state was reported. Washington, May 19.—A resolution calling upon the attorney general for information as to the existence of a sugar trust in violation of the law was adopted in the senate yesterday. The tariff bill was considered. Washington, May 21.—A bill was introduced in the senate on Saturday to authorize several American citizens to accept decorations and testimonials from the Hawaiian government. Several bills of minor importance were passed. Washington, May 2'd.—Debate on the tariff bill occupied the time of the senate yesterday. An amendment to put irou ore on the free list was defeated. Washington, May 23.—Seven paragraphs of the metal schedule of the tariff bill were disposed of in the senate yesterday after eight hours of debate. The House. Washington, May 18. —The house yesterday passed |the agricultural appropriation bill. An amendment raising the appropriation for irrigation investigation from $8,000 to $25,000 was defeated. Washington, May 19.—The legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill was discussed in the house yesterday. At the evening session private bills were considered. Adjourned to the 21st. Washington, May 22.—In the house yesterday In committee of the whole an amendment to the legislative appropriation bill declaring the statute authorizing the sergeant-at-arms to “dock” members for absence to have been repealed was carried. The credentials of Paul J. Sorg, the newly elected representative from the Third Ohio district, were presented and ho was sworn in. Washington, May 23.—In the house yesterday in the committee of the whole the section of the legislative appropriation bill providing for the civil service commission was stricken out by a strictly party vote of 109 to 71.

A firm that is one thing one day and another thing the next day is an unreliable firm to deal with, no matter what they promise or claim. With such people you can never tell “where you are at.” I uiform reliability is the foundation of confidence, and that is one great reason that we are now enjoying a good, liberal business in the face of the continued depression in business circles. Always the Same—one price to every body, and that prica the ‘‘rock bottom.” Our goods and statement■; are absolutely and unfailingly reliable. If you buy an article in our store that does not prove to be worth the price paid, we stand ready at all times to make good your loss. We want you to watch this space for a few weeks. We expect to make a special announcement that will prove of interest and profit to every man, woman and child in Putnam county.
