ENDORSEMENT OF CITY JUDGE BEDFORD.


The Eleventh Ward In Council.
The Eleventh Ward Cunning s. Bedford Club, an
organization named after the City Judge number
ing over i've hundred members held meeting
last evening at Bloch's Drovers' He tel, 1928 East
Houston street. Owing to numerous other mass
meetings being held all through the ward the at
tendance at this place was not quite so full as
1t might have been; still the attendance
numbered several hundred voters all of them
enthusiastic admirers of the fearless young
Judge. At the appointed hour the meeting
was called to order by Mr.. Thomas II. Atkinson,
President Of the association, who addressed tho
assembly at length, setting forth the fact OF the
organization OF this club having been effected long
before the time when Tammany Hall nominated
Judge Bedford Tor the honorable position he has
ably filed during the eight years he occupied the
office Of City Judge, with credit to himself and the
utmost benefit to the city, Mr.. Atkinson, at the
close of his remarks introduced to the meeting
Mr.. Charles White, young and able speaker,
who likewise dwelt upon the merits
Fl FIGHT u fearless lie sna and p
citizen having the peace and welfare Of our city
at heart should go to the polls next Tuesday, and
not only cast his vote for Cunning 8. Bedford for
reelection as City Judge, but prevail on his friends
to do likewise. The only class opposed to another
term OF Judge Bedford were the garroters, thieves
and cutthroats, who now occupied quarters in the
Penitentiaries and State Prisons. Several other
speakers followed in the same strain, after which
the meeting adjourned, with cheers for their
nominee.
The following preamble and resolutions were
unanimously passed.
Whereas Cunning 8. Bedford, the present eff
cient City Judge has, during q political career Of
eight years on the bench demonstrated the greatest

TIMER DESTRUCTION AND MANuFAcTuaE.
Both East and West the increasing price
of those qualities of lumber used for iurui-
ture, Vanelling and fancy work, Is constantly
depreciating the price Of articles manutae
tured theretrom and many persons who for
merlv were able to use furniture made from
materials now scarce, find themselves unable
to pay the prices asked tor such articles
Manufacturers, to meet the demand for
furniture, have utilized many varieties OF
wood not heretofore generally used, but the
growing scarcity still keeps adding to the
cost Of the raw and manufactured produce
To meet this trouble octasiJned by want,
some Of the manufacturers of furniture have
formed an association to ObvIate the q ltfi -uI-
ties occasioned by the scarcity and high
price Of these qualities of lumber It is one
of the fruits Of the excessive waste OF matcri-
al in a country where Nature has scattered
forests of valuable timber with lavish d
hand The available lumber regions are re.
ceding further and further to the West and
the North, until the owners of timber lands
on the far-off shores Of the Pacific are begin
ming to look forward to the time when they
can send their lumber By the costly transpor-
tation Of the g Pacific railways TO the At
lantic markets. Yet still the wantOn de-
struction goes on IN states two thousand
miles nearer to the Atlantic cities. Timber
trees are felled and half their lumber lett To
rot. as if the growth of timber trees were but
the work of a few years.
Many of the Western States, 1t is true.
have taken steps for the planting Of timber ;
but it will take many years before these
paintings will be available. In the mean
time this wanton destruction must cease
else we shall soon find ourselves suffering for
the want of many varieties Of timber, just a.

timber, even the stumps are being dug up
and utilized, and bring high prices. Mean

not far distant when many of the fine varie-

WOMAN SUFFRAGE N THE MAssACHU-
SETS CoNvENTION.-If the principle that
there shall be no taxation without repre-
sentation be correct, there is not, and there
never has been, a sound argument for the
disfranchisement OF women since they
have been property holders A woman
might own all the real estate upon the
chief street Of the village, yet She can
not vote for road ovefseer. Plainly, If
her sex incapacitates her, being mature
and intelligent, for controlling her prop
erty, it should certainly incapacitate her
from owning it. The law that authorized
her to earn, hold and devise property lift
ed the lid from the ballot-box. And all
that the Massachusetts Convention has
done is to say, :. Certainly it did
The Convention said that it was the
opinion of the party but that, as we said,
we shall now see. We have nothing to do
with the party, but this is question of
all parties, especially if, as the scoffers
say every wife will vote with her husband.
OF course they always agree in religious
matters. so 1t may be supposed that they
will in political. Indeed, there are never
differences between wives and husbands.
The husband has only to snuff and the
wife sneezes. The Spratt legend is a foul
libel upon matrimonial tastes. But if
every wife is sure to vote with her husband,
shall she therefore not have the right to
vote? Most youths of twenty one vote with
their fathers-shall they also be excluded
from the polls? Shall the rule be extended.
and any body who votes as any body else
votes be dsfranchised for that reason
Or shall only those be permitted to vote
who can give a sound and satisfactory
reason for their ballot? If wife may
not vote because love for her husband
would lead her to duplicate his vote. then,
of course, all men whose votes are influence
ed by personal regard and respect for
some one else must be set aside. Indeed,
it is chiefly when men begin to argue the
question of suffrage for women that
grave doubt of their own competency to
vote arises.
But if wives are to be excluded because
they will vote with their husbands, upon
what ground shall we dsfranchise those
who have no husbands to vote with ? Shall
we deprive them Of the ballot as a pun
ishment for not having husbands to de-
prive them of it? The same excellent
argument would apply to their property
and we ought to confscate the earnings Of
spinsters because they have no husbands
to manage their money for them. Indeed,
the arguments all tend to prove that
women should be in perpetual prostra-
ton of gratitude that men suffer them to
exist upon any terms whatever.
Certainly no really great movement ever
proceeded so steadily and swiftly IN the
face of curious difficulties as that Of wo-
man suffrage in this country. 1t has had
the most whimsical and often absurd and
repulsive advocacy 1t has often seemed
to be the very politics Of the moon. E1trav-

SWINE AND THEIR HABITs-The aggregate
Of swine raised in New England is quite
large No single farmer has a large number
but there Is scarcely exception among
them all where two or more are not annual
w slaughtered upon the farm. Properly
housed, fed, preserved, and prepared for the
table. there is no flesh more delicious, nutri-
tive and wholesome. Now is the time to give
them special attention. few suggestions
may serve as reminders; may afford much
comfort to the animals, preserve health in
the family and bring profit to the pocket.
l. Keep the sty and yard free from all
offensive odors. This can be done with great
profit by adding old litter, weeds which have
gone to seed, and muck or loan, two or
three times each week during the fall. This
course will greatly increase the manure
heap. The muck should be laid up this fall
for next years use.
, Feed regularly. Perhaps three times
each twenty-four hours is better than twice.
When fed only once or twice, they eat too
ravenouslv. and crowd the system 80 as to
impair digestion and make themselves IN
comfortable. They will not grow fast, or fat
fast. while in this condition. Never add
fresh food TO any that may be left in the
trough from former meal Ii worth pre-
serving, take it out, work it up with the
fresh feed, and clean out the trough with
cold water and an old broom. This will not
seem too painstaking to persons of method
zeal habits. and is the true course in which
to make money on the animals fed. Add a
little salt frequently to the food, and in
warm days, give them as much pure, cold
water they want
Be careful not to over feed. Give them
no more at one time than they will eat with
a good appetite, and leave the trough clean.
I, Let them have q variety Of food, so far
as il can be made convenient. Give them
short, fresh grass OF weeds. every day In a
year Of scarcity Of grain, we knew farmer
who kent some cozen swine through the en-
tire summer, on a few patatoes, sloIs from
Tie house, and four or five bushels Of short,
tender grass fed to them several times each
day. a space near the hog house was kept
smooth and clean, and the grass upon it cut
when only one or two inches high. This the
wine would eat readily as they would corn,
and thrive as well upon it, The piece Of

twenty times during the summer. No lot OF
swine on the farm ever did better than these

agance and folly have been so hopelessly
combined in its behalf that many of its
truest friends have wondered that it was
not pushed from decent and candid consid-
Grafton. But such friends can not too
constantly remember that it is the history
of every movement which is an appeal to
pure reason. There are no guns or clubs
behind the demand for this extension of
the suffrage 1t is conducted wholly with
in the domain of intelligence. And If
riddled with ridicule, let any skeptic re-
call the beginnings of early Methodism-
Read Sydney Smith, and wonder how an
intelligent and liberal man could dnrlde
some Of the noblest and best men that ever
lived. The history of the movement for
the extension Of suffrage to women, like
all the other great movements In this
country, shows to every youth that he who
is hospitabIe to liberty which is ridiculed
entertains angels unawares. 1t is safe to
heed the counsel of Condorcet, " Do not
choose a man who has ever taken side
against the liberty Of any portion of man
kind. "-EDIToR's EASY CHAIR, in HarPer'S
