HOW COL IRBY VOTED On the Question of a Duty on Collars and Cuffs. A TAX OF 150 PER CENT Something About the Kx Senator ami His Connection With Wilson Hill ? Will lie Kxplain.' Washington Lottor t-? tin' K.wnliiK lteeortl. Washington, Aug. is.?With \ little else to write about, 1 will . give you the result oi my investigation into the record of ?dr. Irby in connection with the Wilson ' tariff bill. Mr. Irby I notice by! the papers, claims that hir vote! saved the bill. I have seen several statements from him to! that tdleet. ri.it, statement of j\ir. lrh^ a." not 6u^i?iiki0ti ' j facts. i'he hill was passed hy a vote of 30 yeas t\> 31 noes. (JSoe Congressional Record, page 7137.) It will ho seen from this that a change of three votes, instead of his one, would have been required to have defeated the hill. Mr. Irhy's claim therefore is absolutely false, as shown by the record. So much for that. There are several other votes on this hill which Mr. Irhv has forgotten to mention, to which I desire to call his attention. < >n July 3, 1804, (see page 7085, Concessional Record),Mr. Irby voted to place a duty of 150 per cent, on collars and on li s. He voted with such thorough Republicans as Chandler of New llampshirie, Lodge of Massachusetts, Davis of Wisconsin, Cullorn of Illinois, rrye oi Maine, iiawiey 01 Connecticut, Gallinger of New Hampshire, Washburn of Minnesota aud others. Will Mr. Irby explain this vote? Dare he challango a full investigation into the whole matter? No indeed. There iseometln; g very strange about that collar and culT business. Senator Allen, one of the most mouthy free traders in the senate, also voted to place this duty of 150 per cent, on collars and cutis. Why on collars and culls and howl for free trade on everything else? lhe reason seems plain to a hard-headed thinker, as judged by what followed. The collar and cull' business of this country is controlled Ku Scnii'itor \f 11 ffxl.i* tliA hi.t.i/x n/j vM.nci iv/i m 111 J;IIJ , inkd i /('Hi \Jcratic senator from New York, lie went into all sorts >>f Combinations in order to secure this prohibitive tax. Ho did other tilings as well. Senator Allen voted tor this duty and S n ' >: Murphy sent him a Senator Irby voted for the duty and Senator Murphy lends him $.>,000 without interest. The very same day that S. nator Irby ; voted for a duty ot !.">o per cent, on collars and cull- he voted sgainst a duts of 'JO p?-r t:? nt. on wool Are -uch actions run -istenf f Is not ihe toiling farmer as much entitled to the care of government as the millionaire manufacturer of collars and cuti s ' Why did Senator Irby vote for the one and against the other ( Wait because the millionaire manu facturer had money t<> loan without interest and the poor farmer had none? No man of affairs conversant with the facts will hesitate to say that Senator I rby's voto was not above suspicion and that he was influenced, .f not actually bribed. It might l>e well for Senator Irby to give a full and complete explanation of the matter before going any further in his present course. Hut this is not all. Senator Irby prepared a speech against the bill and 1 do not think he will deny it. I am informed by {rood authority that such is the fact. While the senator has the floor, let him also explain why he did not deliver the speech after h iving spent so much time in its preparation. It seems almost cruel to spoil the elegant story this laggard senator is giving out, hut the people snould know the facts. lie is charging McLaurin with being a Republican because he sought to give fair play to his own people ami seeking to make political capital out of it. Now let him explain why he voted for a lot) per cent, duty on the product of a milionaire manufacturer and refused to vote a .'50 nor it-iU duty m the interest of the farmers he. seems so anxious to have vote for him? Irhy js a political fraud. His record here is filled I with suspicion and no man can investigate it without coming to this conclusion. Hill and Mur| phy dictated his course and | changed his determination from delivering a speech against the hill to casting a vote for it. A Keitiarkadle Cure of Chronic Diarrlwea. In 1SG2, when I served my country as a private in Company A, 107tli Pennsylvania YolunI tcers, I contracted chronic diarrh(oa. It has given mo a great, ileal of trouble ever since. I have tried a dozen different medicines and several prominent doctors without any permanent relief. Not long ago a friend sent mc a mniple bottle of Chamberlain s Colic, Cholera aud Diar I ? _ . 1 1 - ? - ? rmi'ii ivenieuy, and aner mac l bought and took a at) cent bottlo ; and now I can say that I am entirely cured. I cannot be thankful enough to you for this great Remedy, and recommend it to all suffering veterans. If in doubt write me. Yours gratefully, Henry Steinhorger, Allentown, Pa. Sold by .1. K.

The dog following his master 1 along the country road dips in the roadside pool, and the horse, if given the rain, will slow up to a walk under a refreshing bit of shade cast by a row of trees. Is it any wonder, ask? W. II. Gardner, in Humane Journal, that the comfort loving swine has the c'lolera when wo set them, by the hundred, in gr?*at fields with no bettor -bade than a wire fence affords? > It i* not many veal- a^i> that a prominet N?-w York agriculturist ?a large feeder ?nd fattener of cattle by pasturage?cut down all his shade tree- because hi.-,.- 1,..: t0!d him the cattle gain 1 lle-h faster in the lie!.is having no ? i - l ?i - - suawe. i ii(! f*:it11?? took too t?i:k*f> comfort in tin* shade, did ri it cat enough to fatten as fast as in fields \\ itliout shade. We heho\ o this' to i)?? a mistaken theory. The more comfort an animal takes the faster if will put on flesh. The cow ha vine access to quiet shade gives the most milk of the most healthful quanity. The horse loves shade as well as tho man, or the (log, or any other creature. Let it not be forgotten that when the sun's heat is oppressive to one animal it is to all. ii'i ?i > * ?? iitwi mr sun is ;i IMO-glVing elixir to one it ih likely to he to h11.

LOWHY'S EXPERIENCE. : Any Sort ot a Man fan Dig 150,000 Out of tho Elirth in Six Months?A ( rconvlllo Party to Make the Trip on tlio Opening of t he Spring. (Spot-in! to tho Register.) (.Jroenville, S. C., Aug 13.?The Klondike fever has struck (ireenvilie. A letter received in lireeiiviile from W. l\ Lowry, of U iwkoii City, Alaska, has started the I hall. Lowry says : "lie is iio sort of a man at all who can't come here and in six months dig $150,000 out of the eart h." He has 300 feet square staked oil, given him by tho government. He started in with pick, < shovel and pan, the rapacity of ; the pan being four shovels of earth. The (irst pan netted $2.50. I tigging deeper, he got $0.10 to the pan, and increased it to $100. Me struck rock eight feet below the surface and from one pan of this got $1,200 wortli of gold. lie got nuggets from the rock ranging from $1 to $75. Ho states that 700 square nnies ttujoiu his tract as ncn jii goiu as iiih. lie says ho has the refusal of $500,000 for j his claim. Ilo says it is useless to try to Ket to the gold fields this fall ; spring is the time to start. SevI oral thousands are on their way to the fields; the majority will I die before getting there. Three thousand are at St. Miohmls, pre| paring *o make the trip overland. They will have to travel 1,700 miles, walk all the way and carry provisions. Provisions will not last half the trip. They will ; be caught half way in midwinter and will freeze and starve to death in the mountains. The spring trip, he says, is easy, pleasant and enjoyable. One thousand dollars will carry any one to the fields at that time. The country is peaceable; no crime, no stealing, no murders. He gives prices as follows: Hair cut, 75 cents; shave. 75 cents; drink of liquor, 50 cents ; unskilled labor, $15 a day. Provisions scarce and at fabulous prices. All payments made in gold dus\ Kach man lias his own scales. An ounce of gold is worth $17. The letter of Mr. I/>wry is very enticing, and on the strength of it a party is organizing in (Ireenvilli* to make the trip, to start from this city the last of next February.
