tenance softened somewhat at these signs of
confessed inferioriry, however, and the lady
continued:
ity. The cause of humanity embraces all prog
ress. Why, then, should the people of Vir-
ginia be Indifferent to woman"
They're not!'' cried the small reporter
hastily Ear from it. Woman is the boss in
this camp Everything she wants she gets,
and not one in hundred has to do lick of
work"
Mere toys" said the tall one, with deep
scorn. 'Playthings for an idle hour. You
would cover woman with silks and gauds and
sink her soul to insignifcance by circumscrib-
ing her sphere and allowing her no mission in
"Well," admitted the small reporter CHATS
about the way we look at it up here, that's a
fact. Women haven't got the nerve to rustic
for themselves like men,
."Ner-r-vel" She uttered this word in ter
ribie tone, so terrific that the small reporter
half ~ose from his chair.

"Am I not stronger than your she de-

Nerve, indeed!" continued the tall lady,
"wh. women have infinitely more nerve than

That's the biggest rat l ever saw in the

at the dark corner.
The scream that rent the air brought in all
the printers and several citizens from the
street. When they arrived the tall one was
standing on a chair with one hand covering
her eyes and the other convulsively clutching
at her skirts as she gathered them close around
her.
The small reporter wisely took advantage of
the crowd to slip out, and he telegraphed from

Mr.. Hutchinson of Lewiston spoke for the
committee, of which he is chairman; showing
that the delay had not been occasioned By the
committee. He would say, however, that the
committee did not propose to pat the seal of
iSfamy on Mr. White, by going on with the
investigation, when he was unable on accou t
of sickness, to be present and confront Q
charges made against him. He believed the
House would bear out the committee in its
course. He thought it was an insult to the
committee to have these charges brought up

investigated In regard to the case Of Wallace
K. White the work of the committee had been
delayed long time on account of the condi-
ton of his health. 1t has been one month
since the committee organized. He
thought the House had waited a reasonable
time and he wanted the committee to go to
work.
Mr.. Hale believed that the House wanted to
conduct this investigation in proper and fit
ting manner. There was no disposition to de-
lay or avert investigation. This uneasiness on
the part of certain members is unnecessary.
There had been no disposition to rush this
matter. The CO rmittee is an even balanced
one. standing four to three politically. AS to
Mr.. Whites sickness, that is matter no gen.
tleman could hinder. Mr.. White was sick as
he, Mr. Hale, had been informed on the best
authority; but Mr.. White would be here
just as soon as he was able The truth was,
the gentleman from Lincoln did not want Mr..
White here to confront the charges made
against him. AS to instructing the committee
in their duties that was not decent. The COM
mittee should not be coerced; they should be
left to act according to their judgment.
Mr.. Plaisted discaimed that he and other
members were acting from uneasineSS or dis
honest motives.
Mr. Rowell of Hallowell said that one would
suppose from the bringing up here every day of
Wallace r. Whites case that it was the princi-
pal business of the House. He was tired of il.
He presumed that the committee knew their
business. The delay in business was occasioned
by those men who are throwing little dust
while they are rolling in the mud He did not
believe that these petty grievances should be
entertained, coming as they do from those who
have been engaged in the gigantic crime of
trying to steal the State.
Mr.. Perry of Camden fusion) favored the
passage of the order and called for the yeas
and nays, which were ordered.
Mr. Strout of Portland believed it was the
intention of the House to 60 forward and at
tend it It's business, leaving all questions of
political import to be settled at future time
No man would be deceived in the real object
and purpose which underlies this whole mat
ter, which was political capital. If there is
to be political discussion the Republicans
will not be backward in meeting any issue
that may be preser ted at the proper time as
gentlemen will find. But now there is more
serious and important business to be attended
to. II any man has been offered bride or
has accepted bride, the courts of this state,
which are the proper tribunal, are open to
those who desire to prefer charges of bribery,
and there 10 law on bribery which provides
suitable penalties. III Wallace r. White is
