Col. Thomas J. Henley, better known
all over the Pacific Coast as the Old
War horse of Democracy, died at his
farm in Mendocino county, Cal, Satur-
day last. after an illness of six months,
which eliminated in sof,ening OF the
brain. He WAS born in Indiana in
1907. and at manhood studied law, al
though he never practised the profess
sion. At the age of 81 years he was
elected to the Indiana Legislature on
the Democratic ticket, serving several
terms, and at one time became Speaker
of the Assembly. In 1872 he was elect
ed to the National Congress, beating
Joseph l. White, and in a subsequent
nva being elected over Hon. John
S. Davis. In 1919 Col. Henley went to
California, beginning business at Sac
ramento as banker, the firm being
Henley, Latham & Hastings. He was
one ot the Democratic Presidential
Electors chosen during the Pierce
Scott campaign, and was, in 1893, ap-
pointed by President Pierce Postmas-
ter at San Francisco. Resigning this
position the next year, he was appoint.
ed superintendent of Indian Affairs,
which he retained throughout the adj
ministra;ion of Pierce and Buchanan.
In 1868 he ran on the Democratic
ticket as Presidential Elector, im-
mediately afterward retiring to his
farm in MeudociDo county. From 1870
until within the last year deceased
lived at Elko, in this State. He was
more than an average stump orator,
and never failed to take a lively inter-
est in political affairs. He leaves a
family of four sons, one of whom,

Sonoma county in the California Sem
ate.

The Destitution in New Work.

Hard times prevail all over the country, but
the destitution in New York, city is said to be
something APPALLING. Never in the history OF
that CITY has there been such a constantly,in-
creasing army of homeless, unemployed ones.
The many benevolent institutions are taxed to
their utmost, and the papers daily make de-
mands for means to fill the exhausted Golfers
of the charitable associations Collections are
taken up on Sundays in the churches to buy
food and clothing for the starving poor and
the ladies of the different congregations meet
daily in the church rooms, and sew, and distri..
butte articles among the needy, without regard
to- creed, or caste, or kind. In jersey City,
Brooklyn, and New York, alone, are 600, 900
people crowded into tenement houses, often
forty or fifty families living in one tenement
There are 10000 people living in 2,700 tene-
ments; and, with all that public and private
charity can do, how are these people to be TED
and clothed while thrown out OF work? The
increase of crime and evil doing is owing to
the increase of pauperism. The rich have re-
sponded generously wealthy ladies have gone
in their carriages, and personally bestowed
money and given other help; but the attempts
have been spasmodic, and the many benovo-
lent organizations cannot begin to succor all
the needy poor. Frequently families are
picked up on the streets, who have been turned
adrift into the streets because of unpaid rents,
and who have literally neither food, clothing
nor shelter. 1t is now serious problem with
thoughtful people what is to become OF oil
these houseess, hungry poor, with ranks con-
stanty growing larger. Is. .,.i II .,
