Ex-Spsaker Kiefer ought to be hap
py now. Fearing that he might sink
into oblivion he has lately made him
self the object of two congressional
investigating committees. In one in.
stance he is charged with having de-
manded the resignation of House
stenographer Immediately at the close
of the session of which he was the al
legged speaker, to make room for his
nephew who was not stenographer,
but who drew the pay during the re-
cess when there was nothing to do.
His only defense for this action is that
it was bargain made beforehand. On
Tuesday another committee was ap-
pointed to investigate the charge made
by Kiefer that Fl. V. Boynton, a cor
respondent, approached him with a
bribe TOR his influence on the McGar
rahen case. Boynton says that Kiefer's
Whole story is stupendous lie, and it
was at the suggestion of Boynton tha,
the committee was appointed. Kiefer
is growing to be the Great American
Public Nuisance. He does not seem
to have any friends left even in his own
party.

A Strange Virginia Story.
THE SHENANDOAH VALLEY AGITATED BY
THE METAMoRPHosIs OF ELIZABETH
REBECCA PAYNE

A special to the Baltimore Morning
Herald from Winchester, Va, saws ;
One of the best t-known ladies of the
Shenandoah Valley, Va, has turned
out to be man Miss Elizabeth Re-
becca Payne, daughter of the late
Joseph Payne, seven miles from Win
chester, who has lived for thirty eight
years as lady, suddenly avowed her
self to be, few days since, a man,
and startled James p. Reilly, Clerk of
the County Court here, by applying for
a license to marry Miss Hinton, who
had resided in the Payne family az a
domestic. The lady who fred the
heart of Mr. Payne with such passion
as to compel him to throw off the
habit of lifetime and declare his sex
is prepossessing and forty years of age
The strange affair has caused decid-
I'D sensation in the Shenandoah Valley
and nothing else is talked about. Payne
was brought up as a girl. No one

Senator Sherman has introduced the
"bloody shirt" into the coming cam.
paign, by offering resolution in the
Senate, providing for an investigation
of the alleged outrages at elections in
Virginia and Mississippi. The Demo
cratic senators held a caucus for the
purpose of deciding upon a policy with
reference to this resolution.
After full and general expression
of opinion, it was decided that the
party action should be governed by
circumstances when the Sherman reso-
luton should come up for consideration.
That resolution merely alleged that
outrages had been committed and
voters intimidated by criminal violence
at elections in two of the southern
states. If the Republican senators in
their remarks upon the resolution should
treat the alleged outrages as ascertain
ed and proved facts, should refer TO
specific acts of violence and intimida.
ton, and should attempt to charge the
Democratic party with responsibility
for such acts, it would, in the opinion
of the caucus, be proper and expedient
for the Democratic senators to accept
the issue aud enter actively into the
debate, shaping their course in ac-
cordance with the drift of the discus
zion.
This it was conceded would pro.
badly lead to heated political coniro,
versy. If, however the Republican
senators should not directly force this
issue, if they should confine themselves
to general allegations of local disorder
and violence, and not assert that the
Democratic party fostered and encour-
aged the spirit which gave rise TO such
disturbances, il was decided TO let the
Republicans have the debate mainly to
themselves.

Political party organizations were
originally intended for the benefit of
all the people. Modern methods have
made them simply the tools of design
ing politicians, and there can be no re.
form until the people shall again as
sumo control of public affairs and, by
their action at the polls, condemn the
practices of the latter day statesmen.
1t is generally believed that the poll
tics of this county need publication,
and If this be true, the remedy is in
the hands of the people. A rigid en-
forcement of the rules of the Demo.
cratic party, and strict observance of
the laws governing elections and con-
ventions is all that is necessary.

The republicans of Philadelphia have
blundered by making nominations for
city officers that do not meet with the
approval of citizens of any party who
favor reform. Pierre, the best man on
their ticket, withdrew, and the conven-
ton was reconvened and John Hunter
who ought to have been nominated by
the first convention, was put in his
stead. A few days later the demo-
Gratis of the city nominated King for
Mayor Hunter for tax receiver, and
Sheppard for Solicitor, and the com
mittee of one hundred has unqualified
ly endorsed their action. OF course
Hunter will be elected, having no op
position, and it is almost equally as
certain that the Others on the demo
cratic ticket will be elected Phila.
delphia with her twenty thousand re-
publican majority has found it neces-
sary to elect democratic Mayor and a
democratic controller in order to free
her from the corrupt rule cf republican
bosses, and Pennsylvania, with about
the same majority, has been compelled
to elect Democratic Governor for the
same reason. Can such things be, and
still leave any doubt as to which party
is the party of reform The United
States will follow suit this year by the
election of a democratic President. Re-
form is the issue of the present day,
and the Republican party cannot avoid
it by the cry of "Tariff"

There have been some rumors that
another extra session of the Legislature
will soon be called by Governor Patti
son to make an apportionment of the
state, so that there may be no danger
OF losing our representation in Con-
gress. There is no reasen TO believe
that the Governor contemplates any
such action, but if he does he had bet
ter think twice, and then think again,
before carrying out his intentions.
There is no more prospect of the re-
publican Senate agreeing to fair ap-
portionment now than there was year
ago, and if the republican party of this
State can stand being uDrepresented
in Congress, the democrats might try
to worry through somehow.

Fred Douglass Married.
A VIII TIE WOMAN OF WASHINGTON BE.
COMES HIS BRIDE.

The wedding of Frederick Douglass
the famous coored orator, who is al
present Recorder of Deeds for the Dis
trict of Columbia, and Miss Helen NJ
Pitts, took place at the residence of the
Rev Francis j. Grimke, pastor of the
Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church
No. 1908 r. Street Washington, D. c.
Only two witnesses were present. The
young lady is said to be quite attrac.
tive and OF medium build, her distin-
gushing characteristic being a very
heavy suit of black, curling hair She
has been residing at No. 913 Z street
for some time, and it was not until that
evening, when she appeared in the par
lor attired in garnet silk and velvet
gown, with hat to match, that the oc.
cupants OF the residence suspected her
matrimonial intentions. Miss Pitts is
well known as a writer on woman suf-
frage and moral reform, having been
for time the assistant editor of the
Alpha, a paper published at Washing
ton in those interests After the we'd
ding they drove to the residence of Mr..
Douglass in Anacosta, suburb of the
city. His marriage is quite surprise,
as it is said he has openly denounced
miscegenation as detrimental to the
welfare Of the colored race.
Miss Pitts is younger than any OF
Douglass children and less than half
as old as her husband Colored peo-
pie are more severe against Douglass
who has always maintained that the races
should not intermarry. There is not
much sympathy for Miss Pitts, for she
has been in his employ for eighteen
months AMI must have known what
would be thought of her marriage to
him. 1t is said that the marriage was
illegal, from the fact that there is a
law which prevents miscegenation. 1t
is understood the friends of Miss Pitts
are much exercised over the matter
and that they will try to have il
declared null and void.
