Washington Letter.
[From Our Regular Correspondent.]
February 1G, 1889.
Secretary Coleman is now tbe offiiial
title of the gentleman who has so
jfficieDtly presided over the Agriculural
Department, as Commissioner,
inder the present administration.
Che elevation of Mr. Coleman to the
sabicefc was an act on the part of the
President which spoke loudly in favor
A tbe manner in which tbe arduous
luties of the Commissioner of Agrimltnre
have been performed, and the
prompt confirmation of the nominaion
by the Senate was, in view of tbe
arge number of political appointnents
now " huDg up," a compliment
,hat Mr. Coleman may be excused of
eeling proud. The only thing in this
jonnecfcion to be regretted is that the
jountry is so soon to lose the valua>le
services of Secretary Coleman.
Eveu the Republicans are compelled
;o acknowledge that Secretary Whitley's
management of the Navy De- ;
jartment has been all that could be
tsked. The latest Republicans to
>ublicly put themselves on the record
o this effect were Senator Plumb and
Senator Hale, both of whom eulogized
Secretary Whitney in speeches made
)Q the Naval appropriation bill. Four
rears more of Whitney and we would
lave a navy of which we might be
>roud. Mr. Harrison will be fortulate
indeed if he can had a man who
ian make a record equal to that of
he present secretary.
Mr. Randall's Appropriation Comnittee,
having finished its regular
vork, is now considering the Cowles
fill, repealing the tobacco tax. What
vill be done with it depends upon
vhat the House will do with the
Senate tariff bill, which has been adrersely
reported by the Ways and
lleans Committee, and whether if the
Senate bill is defeated, as now seems
irobable, the latter committee will
eport any other tariff or revenue
UtittbUltt.
A strong lobby is working on the
Jenate Committee on Territories, enieavoring
to get an unfavorable re)ort
from that committee on the
)klahoma bill. The opposition is
>eing led by ex-Senator McDonald of
ndiana, and is likely, from the best
nformation yonr correspondent can
)btain, to fail.
Senator Manderson has introduced
i bill giving women the right to vote
or members ef Congress.

Concerning Forfeited Lands.
A meetiog of the Sinking Fund j
Commission was held in Columbia on
Tuesday of last week, and tbe matters
considered were mainly of a routine
character. The Secretary of State,
the commission's agent, wa3 authorized
to issue a circular letter to all
persons interested in lands forfei'ei
to the State, giving the amount due
and notifying that euit will be brought
if payment is not made.
As the matter is one of general interest,
the following summary of the
circular is given :
Tbe Secretary of State states that
by virtue of th^act approved December
24, 1887, and the amendments
thereto, approved December 24,1888,
he, as agent of the Sinking Fund
Commission, is authorized to bring an
action as for debt against the former
owners, or any person or persons having
any legal or .eqaitable interest in,
any lands which have been forfeited
to the State, for the recovery of the
full amount of all taxes, costs and
penalties accrued to and including the
levy of 1886.
Then follows the description of the
land in each special case, and a statement
of the accumulated charges up
to the time at which the property
passed into the charge of the Sinking
Fnnd Commission, .'he simple taxes
which have since accrued, the fee
for discharge, and the total charges
against the properTyto and inclpdiDg
the levy of 1886.
The person to whom the circular
letter is addressed is thfcn notified that
if settlement of the amount be not
made to the Secretary of State within
thirty days from date, suit will be
brought, and upon judgment being
obtained, an execution will be issued
and the said land will be sold by the
sheriff , at public sale io satisfy the
stated amount and the. costs of suit
* v-.i!
A biaDk lorm 61 application IB 111closed,
the circular printed on the
inner pages of which gives fall information
as to bow to proceed to obtain
a discbarge. By settling without delay
those interested will save a large
amount of extra costs and expenses.
Pimples, Sores,v Aches and Pains.
When a hundred bottles of sarsaparilla
or other pretentions specifics
fail to eradicate in-born scrofula or
contagious blood poisoa, remember
that B. B. B. (Botanic Blood Balm)
has gained many thousand victories,
in as many seemingly incurable instances.
