He also described the scene at the
death bed. illustrative OF the christ
ian iety and faith in Jeusus OF
their late brother.
DR. Currie said that he did not
feel inclined to say much OF the
great loss which had been sustain
ed by himself ard all present. He
felt that he had been personally
bereaved, and desired rather to
bear his loss quietly and silently.
He could not now enter into an
ANALYSIS Of the character OF his
brother. because sentiment and
feeling would, perhaps, bear too
large a share therein.
Mr.. EprroR: I respectfully ask
the consideration Of the following
from the Chairman of the Memorial
Commitre of the Iowa Woman s
Suffrage association, it shows that
the Methodist of Iowa, are alive to
growth of public sentiment and
realize the fact that in order to
reach the people, they must keep
pace with them in progress.

IOWA METHODIsTs FOR SUFFRAGE.
EDIToRs JoURNA.-Two weeks
ago I had the pleasure of reporting
to you the adoption of resolutions
III f vor of Woman Suffrage by the
Des Moines Methodist Conference.
I now add to that, similar report
for the Northwest Iowa Conference,
which embraces the entire Method
ist work, not only of Northwest
Iowa, but includes also the whole
Of Dacotah Territory.
The resolutions were strong and
unequivocal. They were introduc-
ed and supported by Rev. Bennett
Mitchell of Algona Also support
ed by Rev Lozier of Fort Dodge,
Curl, of Webster City, Hartstutf,
of Sioux City, Williams and Rgby
Of Sioux Falls, aud others. They
were opposed by Revs. Baker, OF
Algona, Potter, of Sioux City, and
feebly by few others, When put
to vote the resolutions prevailed by
II to 7, or three to one. And [
think the majority would have been
even larger. were it not that junior
members of the Conference are not
entitled to vote, for l find that our
young ministers seldom need con
verting
The fact is we are coming up
out of the wilderness, at least here
in Iowa. And I fully believe we
are coming up to stay. l think we
have passed the hour when either
friends or enemies can do us any
serious harm. Our cause is now
espoused by a class of men who are
in solid earnest in whatever they
undertake, and whose influence in
politics and society means q great
deal
The arguments of the affirmative
were mainly these: IF it is the
mission of the church to steach
people to do right, we must defend
this measure because it is right.
If it is the mission of the church to
Christianize the world, we must use
all honorable means to remove the
obstacles in the way. No greater
obstacle than intemperance exists
and no more direct and powerful
weapons can be brought against il
than the Acknowledgement of women.
And so, with the sword of right
eousness and truth. we won the day
Look out now for lively times
for these Methodist preachers
spread themselves like prairie fire
Happily yours.

When the Independents attempted
to coalesce with the decayed Democ-

Death of william NJ. Perkins.

The remains Of William NJ. Perkins will
arrive in this city to-day. and be buried
with Masonic honors this afte rnoon from
the residence of Mr.. Charles Ch affee. corner
of First and Coliseum streets. Mr.. Perkins
died at Chicago on the fourtee nth instant.
He was born in the State Of Vir ginia in the
year 1919, and came to reside permanently
in New Orleans as early as 1913, and asso.
ciated himself in the tobacco and cotton
commission business with Allison, Allen e.
Co. From that time he has been constantly
engaged in mercantile purs uits. and his
able industry. Straightforward dealing,
honesty and truthfulness were his inherent
characteristics. and these qualities marked
his life as q man and merchant. At the
time of his death he was senior of the well
known firm of Perkins. Swenson g. Co., Of
this city. His loss in Masonic circles will
be as deeply felt as in the business world.
for he had been an active and prominent
member Of that order for many years. He
was elected Grand Master of the Grand
Lodge of the State in 1855. and held the
Office for four years. In 1866 he was again
elected to the same position. His life was one
consistent with his teachings as a Master.
His charity was bountiful according to
his means. He had word and pleasant
greeting for all. and will be mourned by
the fraternity. He had taken all OF the
higher degrees of Masonry. receiving tho
thirty.third degree Of the consistory more
than nineteen years ago. In addition to his
mercantile duties he acted as resident con.
sui tor Sweden and Norway. He has left
behind him an untarnished name, and was
all he seemed to be-a good man.
