Women and Umbrellas.


 Long continued observation has convinced us that the welfare of society demands i'm mediate consideration of the question as to whether women should be allowed to carry umbrellas. It may be urged in defense of continuing the privilege that to refuse it would be in violation of the inalienable right of the pursuit of happiness. But if wo- man gets any happiness out of knocking of peoples hats and gouging out their eyes, to say nothing of tangling up the points of the umbrella ribs in the hair of other women, she ought to be induced either by moral sua- sion or legal compulsion to pursue happiness in some other way. It is a well recognized principle that the rights of one person end where those of another begin and since woman seems to be unable to keep her um brela outside of the corporate limits of oth- CT people, it is quite evident that she ought to be limited in the exercise of her right to carry umbrellas to the Sahara, the alkali plains and the Russian steppes. If woman were capable of being educated in the proper carrying of umbrellas there would be some hope that with the process of education and development she might learn to wield her present death-dealing weapon above the dan ger line. But it is physical impossibility. She is born that way. She can no more car ry an umbrella as it ought to be carried than she can throw a stone without those inde- scribable gyrations, or catch ball when she doesn't wear an apron. It is too true, but she must accept the consequences just as she must accept the consequence of being unable to throw straight, the inevitable consequence of never hitting anything. This being true, and moral suasion having failed to bring about the desired end, nothing remains but to protect the hats, eyes and hair of the community by legal means. And it will be seen at snce that this is fit subject for con- stitutional prohibition. The aim is to secure large portion of the community in the pos session of their inaliensbie rights of wearing their hats on the tops of their heads and keeping their natural eyes.

The Senate Restaurant.

lWasn1ngLon correspondent Troy 1lInes.l
 The Senate restaurant has become the club room of the Capitol. With colored man in charge, the Senators now get the best cook ing and attendance in town. Representatives
 go over there to lunch and Senators boast of
 it outside. was talking with John Francis the other day. He is the colored man to
 whom MT. Edmunds gave the restaurant,
 with $6 1000 or $7,oOO year. 'Do the Sena-
 tors generally spend much money with you?"
 I asked him. ''No," he went on, ''as rule
 thsy come down here and eat crackers and
 milk My milk is most all cream and they
 like it. Most of them are here each day, al-
 though few have their lunch sent to con-
 mittee room. Senator Merrill always eats crackers and milk, SO do Senators Hoar and
 Ingalls,. MT. Platt always drinks tea. Sena- tor Vest likes to stand up to the oyster counter and take dozen on the shell with some ale Perry Belmont is often here eat ing raw oysters. Gen. Logan is very ab- stemious. MT. Aldrich generally eats 8
 steak. But the best of our custom is from the outsiders. They eat more and higher priced dinners than the Senators. Generous? We'll, not many of them. They do not come down to the walters very handsomely. The poorest men are the most liberal. MT. Frye is kind and always has pleasant word for the walters; so does MT. Garland. Gov Vance has his pockets full of dimes, and throws them out literally. Gen. Logan, when he feels good. is liberal, but the tips generally come more from outsiders than Senator's" A large closet full of brandy and wines stands invitingly in rlsin view, not withstanding the new rule that no intoxicat- ing liquors shall be allowed. They are sold to anyone who calls, but Mir. Blair's wild re- mark that the restaurant is ''the national grogery'' was a good way from the truth. Very few Senators drink to excess. Some of l them have a bottle or two in their committee rooms. Mir. Hale entertains his friends oc- | casionally with wine-spreads. Pendleton al- ways has some champagne and makes point | to hand it around freely when the Democratic ! caucus meets, he being chairman. Up in the l back room of the Senate committee on print. | ing Mir. Anthony has something in store. You will often see him and Mr. Edmunds coming from there with pleased expression. | Judge Thurman was Mir. Edmunds' con- psnion of old. When they went out together the Senate blinked sympathetically. Don | Cameron invariably took wine with his nice | little lunch, served daintily in his private
 room. Frye and Blair are the only teetotalers
 in the upper house. But drunkenness is
 never seen in these days. It is now in ''bad | form"

Bubear Beaten By Ross.

buDeAr Beaten By ktOsSs
 LONDON, March 1O.-The race between George Bubear, the well known English oarsman, and Wallace Ross, the equally famous sculler of New Brunswick, took place this morning, in accordance with previous announcements. The distance rowed was four miles and two furlongs over the regular Thames course from Putney to Mortlake, Ross conceding Bubear ten seconds. The betting was five to four in favor of Ross. Bubear got lead at the start of four and 8 half lengths, but at Hammersmith, the mid de point of the course, this difference was overcome and the boats were nearly even. The race was won by the American by six lengths. His time was 26 minutes and 10 seconds. Ross quickly overhauled Bubear and caught him mile and half from the start where Bubear was already thoroughly beaten man and never came near Ross after wards, the latter winning with consummate ease. After the race Ross received quite an ovation from his admirers.

GfbsOn's Story-Further Pages From
 the Star Route History.
 WASHINGTON, March 10.-A. M. Gibson, late special examiner in the EPostofice de- partment, continued his testimony o-day before the committee on expenditures in the department of justice. Witness rehearsed the indictments and failures in the prosecu- tions and details of the trials which have frequently been published. The failures in starting certain cases rightly were ascribed to the rulings of Colonel Bliss. Witness read a copy of letter which he addressed to the Attorney General January 24, 1882, wherein he stated that he prepared the cases against Brady, Brown, French ct als. and argued that they be taken before the grand jury, then in session, and cited the fact that in the October following the statute of limitation would run out in the case of Brown. He thought delay had already been detrimental to the govern ment's interests. In the letter he stated that he had not been authorized or directed to proceed with the cases He had only been directed to prepare them. He expressed 8 willing ness to go before the grand jury and did not doubt that an indictment would be found. The Attorney General did not reply to the letter. Witness gave the foreman of the grand jury a copy of the case he had prepar- ed and told hin. it was his duty to proceed independently of the government. The foreman replied that he had been informed that the government did not want him to proceed against those parties Witness orieinalIy rendered bill for $7,o00 for his services. There was a disallowance and he expressed desire to resign. He saw MT. Brewster, who was employed by the govern ment through witness, and stated that he desired to resign. He had heard that Messrs- Maeveagh and Bliss desired him to resign.
 "Why did Macveagh and Bliss want your resienstionp'' inquired Mir. Millikin. ''I un- derstood, {" replied witness, s'that it was be- cause did not entertain the same political views as those in power"
 ssThen they must have changed their
 ninds U said MT. Milliken, "for they em- nloved MT. Merrick subsequently, and he is 8 Democrat," ssYes, guess they wanted 8 Democrat of the standing of MT. Merrick to shoulder part of the responsibility. Witness presumed the prosecution did not want any one vriiine such letters as he had written to | the Attorney General or giving advice; they
 wanted to control the cases in their l own way: the Attorney General and MT. Rliss had stated to witness before he resigned | that they wanted him to remain, but he did moi believe what they said. He knew they did not say what they wished. No indict'
 nert had vet been found when he went out | of the depsrtment. He pronounced some of | inc theories upon which the government pro
 ceeded in the trials as nonsense.

 The Lasker Resolution Returned ts the House of Representatives.
 WASHINGTON, March 1O.-While the House was considering business brought up by the District of Colunbia committee to-day, the Presidents private secretary appeared with a message transmitting the Lasksr resolu tion and accompanying correspondence. By unanimous confent the message was read and referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs together with the following resolution offered by MT. Hiscock:
 Whereas. it has come to the knowledge of this house that Q communication from it to the parliament of the German empire entirely friendly in it's intent, respectful in it's character and sent through the regular channels of international communication has been arbitrarily intercepted and returned to the department of State of the United States by the person now holding the position of chancellor of the German empire; therefore
 Resolved, That the House cannot but ex- press its surprise and regret that it should be even temporarily within the power of sin gle, too powerful subject to interfere with such simple, national and spontaneous ex- pression of kindly feeling between great na- tlons and thus to detract from the position and prestige of the crown on one hand and from the rights of the mandatories of the people on the other.
 Resolved, That this House does hereby reiterate the expression of it's sincere regret at the death of the late Edward Lasker and of it's sympathy with the Parliament of the German empire of which for SO many years he was distinguished member.
 Among the documents sent to the House was Prince Bismarck's letter declining to for ward the letter to the Reichstag and the correspondence between Secretary Freling- huysen and Minister Sargent.

 WASHINGTON, March 1o.-The woman suffragists appeared at the Capitol today and submitted arguments before g sub committee in advocacy of the passage of Representative Cassiday's bill proposing 8 reorganization of the legislature of Utah. Susan B. Anthony and Delegate Caine had quite lively tilt on the subject of polygamy. Miss Anthony took the ground that it was men who wanted six or seven wives; that no woman ever wanted six or seven men. Mr. Caine argued that the plurality of wives was simply the result of religious conviction and that women entered it, the same as they entered convents.

GOOD ADVICE

Secretary Chandler, who is clear headed
man and sterling Republican issued an ad-
dress to his fellow Republicans Of New
Hampshire;
II, after twenty-four years OF national
power the republican party is now to sur
rcnderthe government TO Democratic con
troll, it can point TO marvellous record OF
success and patriotism. II took the govern
ment from the Democrats in 1861, with an
empty treasury, 6per cent United States
bonds selling Mt SO. and money only TO be
borrowed AT II per cent; with slavery STAIN
ing the nations honor; the whole south
in rebellion in arms against the author
itv of the federal union, and the Democrat
ic leaders aiding the revolt. 1t will sur
render the government, having put
down the Democratic slave holders rebel
lion. abolished slavery, paid the S6,O0o,00o,-
600 expenses of the war; reduced the nation,
al debt from It's highest point Of $500.
600 600 in August. 1865, to Sl.425,0oo,Oo0 in
October, 1884. with the annual interest
charge reduced from Sl5l 100000 TO $751;
600. 600, with the rate of interest per cent,
and with S4250o0.0oo in the treasury, OF
which 1926. 900 are gold and silver. II
took the country with lis property valued al
$4,000. COOS 600. Il will surrender II with q
valuation Of $4,000, 100000. Ii has saved
the nations integrity and honor by the valol
of ts soldiers, and maintained its prosperity

no citizen need be ashamed that he has beer
a Republican during this period Of na,iona
growth and glory. One may well have re
crets if he has been Democrat and an op-
ponent of all the great and noble achiev'
ments of the last twcnty-four years.

WE DON'T KNOW.

We don't wish to be nquisitiye about tins
matter. but we would like for the Wichita
EAGLE and several other papers in the valley
20 explain why they always term a killing at
Caldwell "a cold blooded murder and
when the same thing is done at another
town. they term it "a jcsttiable homicide
or "a desperate shot bv officers" Ii may
be from force of habit and not for spite OF
Intentional MISREPRESENTATION as il appears
10 us. The EAGLE calls the unfortunate af-
fair that occurred here lately "cold-bood-
ed murder" and distorts facts In the case to
carr out its first proposition. This is an
Injustice to our citizens rs well rs to our
officers, and no paper has the right to thus
iniure them. Ii may not have been inten-
tonal, but il appears SO 10 man OF average
intelligence Caldwell Journal.
The journal is assured that there was no
intention to misrcpresent, and there was no
prejudice or feeling upon the part of the
EAGLE whose information was had of "A citl-
zen of Wichita who happened to be in Cald'
well when the marshal and his assistant
killed the COW bos: Ii seemed to us a mighty
tough affair There is in fact, no excuse for
killing n man who is unarmed and surround
Cd BIZ officers who are armed. We know
none ef the parties personally, but 1t does

have secured siugle man and he drunk
without spilling his blood.
