Coi giessman Palmer, according io no Associated Press Dlipstob has sivea bis views as follows: "Med. ern methods of banking make it ab solutely nbcewary that nation! bank?, to properly perform their funntinm, should have the privilege of le.noiiig tu uey on real e.-tate. Wncn tho National Bank Act vtas pnf-S'il in 1SG4, the untver'al custom of banker was to lend nionoy on personal srenrify. Nowadays bank ers loiik askance npou Iohiis secured hy personal endorsement, and re quire aoniii kind of collateral, prsfer ably ft listed sli ck or bond. Former ly, when a bank wss approached to lend money the first qneotion J ut to jtio bi r.-nwer was. Who will endorse your note?' Now. it is, 'W hot col. Literal can you put up to secure tho lo.iu?' A larga proporlion-of the savings acconnts in our nuiunal b uilfa, os potMally in the o-uulry ii:ric's, came from a class of paoplo who, w hen they desire to borrow money, bavo no other security to offer than ! ttmli- rfl M'nlia I:,na tltuu ' sons, who furnish most of tho money t the banks, can not borrow from their lur-al institutions, we find coun try banks eveijwhere Bending their money away from borne to invent in tha large cities, where listed slocss and" bond aro available as oollatera).

KEVS FROM WASHINGTON With the precl. inn ofa perfectly de slened anil nthquately oiled median ism tbe Republican insj illiis in the two hou. es of Congress havn passi.il tbe tariff bill toil linal stage and l! is now in tbe bands of the conference coinmitteo f) which is delegated the ontroua task of adjusting the dilfer enee belwetn the two bills passed by the twn housesof Cor.giebs. The vote o i the bills in tho Senate stood 45 to 31, ten RcpuhliP-.iiis voting aga nst t'ie measure and one Democrat, Mr iicICoery of Lcuisiann, for it. The publicans who voted against tbe bill a'l belonged to tho "insurgent enmp" and were pit feet ly consisti nt in I heir course, having voteil asainst most of l lie amendment but on tho lull in the Senate. There am few of theden who would have voted agiiinst the bill had their votes been necessary topa.-slt but, with an ample maj ir. ity of those who approved it provls loiin, tluy cilst negative vr tes as an exprehninn of protest hgahist tbe Sen ale iiicruies and Willi the hope thai course would strengthen the HoU"f conferrera in their rlemand Mist the lower rales of the lit use be subsli tulcd for lho;e impufwd by the Seuate. At noon following the passage of the bill by tha Senate, the House met and after nn honrnnd thirty minutes detain udopted a resolution which scut tho bill to conference forthwith, the vote by which that was docoui piished being ITS to 1 21. Of course there wero the usual loud ciie of protest from the Deinocruls, the pnme wall agalrt the pnelpiuiLcy of the House which they invarihly employ and wliicli is mi lucking in sincerity that many of the minority aro wholly unable to maintain straight, faces a their coilcagne beat tbe air and ful lUiimfeRg.tinst I lie same course us the Hoti'e adopted In the cite of the Wilsou bill, when the Dcmucmts eu joyeil an ample mnj irily. The lie publicans have I t c me so accustomed to the course of the opposition that it occasions tbtru no concern and they putnue tbe even tenor of their way witli the j a nmess aud conip'aconcy of a steam-roller. There was Just one small bitch in the oiati'on and that was behind clieed doors. Representative Puyi.o, as chairman of tbe Vuys and Means couimittee, usveried bis right to se lect the conferee Tbe Speaker, ignor ing all precedents, refused to recog nize the right of Mr. Payueand made up the llcuse side of tbe conference committee to suit himself. The re suit i thut the conferrees are mostly "litaud palters", including Represent atives Townsend and Caiderliead of Kansas, both representing the highest type of protectionist and neither of whom would have been chosen bad Mr Payne had hi way. The fact I that Mr. Payne is himself too strongly disposed toward downward revision to suit the Speaker who deemed it wise to offset Mr. Payne's downward revision teuddiicies with two extreme "stand patter". The tariff bill was sent to confer, ence about 3:30 p. m. and at 6 :3U the conferrees beld their first meeting. It ccuslVed only of au informal dis cu-sion of the plans of proci dure. It was decided to meet daily at 10 a. m. ill Ilia largo room in which the Sen ate Finance committee framed their substitute.- The session will be al most commons, probably lasting from 10 in tbe morning until far into tna night. By winking at this spend it is expected tntt their work can be completed within ten days and most of the members of Cougrces loc k for final adjoarment not later than July 21th Toe Democratic, members rf the conference o. iiimlttee wt re inform ed that further presence would not bo required until the Republican bad reached an agreement. The utmost interest attache to tbe court of the Prmident with regard to the bill.

Of course thtre la little ground for hoping that Le can accoitipl!i-h thut end, but it is probable bis effort will have some effect in modifying the Senate duties. The President, after having taken his family to bis summer home at i Beverly, Maseeh nset, and attend- , ing the Tercet tenor Celebration of i Luke Chune.'uln, I turned to tha WUi.e Uoue to await (h ootnp'.atiua of the tariff bill rnrt to council with the conforrecs.

How To Cure Rheumatism To cure rheumatism, It ie neces sury to rid the system of the exoesa of urio uoi.l ; nnd to do this a proper diet is even more important than the use of drags, though in very severe esses tbe latter are not to be deepised in conjunction with tbe dieting that i absolutely es-i ntinl. Tbo Massachusetts General Hos pital of Boston allowa tbe following diet for its rbenmatio patient: Gra ham or brown bread, whits bread (limited (o one-half slice doily,) oom, gntiuiu, rice, tuilk, eggs, flpnr pod dings, crackers, bos ns, peas, all kinds of vegetables except potatoes, tomatoes and aspnragns, rhubarb, fresh fish, butter, cheese, buttermilk Cream, alkalin waters and toast. Avoid : Red meats, starch or pota toes, while bread nnd sugars. Tne sensible usa of water, both in tornally and externally, plays a large part In tbo prevention or enre of rheumatism. Onn or two glssses, either hot or cold, taken before break fast every morning Is excellent to start the organs of digestloa for tho day, and at lenst one glass should ba taken between meals. Often tbe plain water will be enongh to move a slightly constipated parson, but, if not, a mild medicated water may be Ink n iustead. It is very essential to keep the bowel cpen in cases of rheumatism. Urio acid in tbe system is a poison and it must not he forgotten that poitooona waste matter is also elimi nated through the skin. .The pore of the skin must be kept freely open aud pot allowed, to become elogged, if we bopo to obtain tba best results itb rhontnatio crises.

It takes a town in these days with considerable spot cash and a large population to support a nine which can rank with the profssaionala of other plaoes, and when reduced to that patriotism for tbe borne team is largely eliminated aud tbe purely gambling sentiment predominates. It may be open to question whether in the end this pay either financial ly or in cultivating a proper spirit for sport, as an abstract proposition to enter'ain. A nine composed of home falent which wonld play nines from surrounding loe-ns of ltsclass wonld amuso nnd excite perbnps more genuine fun wir.lj nronaing a spirit of friendly inter. t, than does battle roynl betweon hirod batter ies represented at so much per head. Many who view bail gtitties are not so far np in the- technical education as to appreciate tho finer points and.' are more aronsed and entertained at a wild scramble for a ball than they are at an exhibition of fancy pitch ing where sides are retiroiin one two three order. Wbeu has ball eomes back, if It ever docs, to a trial of skill between honrs tnlent when neighboring town boys contend for honors and the experts hired to do fancy work are eliminated, we be. lievo the sport will really furnish more gennine enjoyment and be ou a mere substantia! basis.
