Washington as a statesm an.
From Philadelphia Press.

A private letter from Mr.. Gladstone,
recently published, has drawn forth 4
few words Of eloquent comment from
the Hon. William M. Evarts, recently
elected United States Senator from New
York. We reprint the Gladstone tribute
az proper text for the brief and weigh
ty words Of Mr.. Evarts:
When first read in detail the Life
Of Washington" | was profoundly i'm
pressed with the moral elevation and
greatness Of his character, and l found
myself at a loss TO name among the
statesman OF any age or country many,
or possibly any who, who could BE- his
rival, In saying this mean no dispar-
agsment to the class of politicians, the
men of my own craft and Gleth; whom
in my Own land and my own experience
naya found no less worthy than other
men Of love and admiration. | could
name among them those who seem to
me to come near even to him. But l
will shut out the last half century from
the comparison. will then say that il,
among all the psdestals supplied by his
tory for public characters OF oXtraOrdin-
airy nobility and purity, saw one high
or than ali the rest, and if were requir-
ed at a moments notice to name the 1T
test occupant for it, think my choice,
at any time during the last fOrty-iive
years, would have lighted. AID it would
now light upon Washington.
W. 4. GLADSTONE.
The supremacy OF the character and
fame of Washington, which Mr.. Glad
stone assigns to him, has been accorded
by the most eminent statesmen, hist0ri-
ans and orators of England, from the
time of his contemporaries to the present
day. Indeed the judgment of all Europe
is scarcely less exalted in its homage. Ia
our own country this supremacy Of
Washington has been most clearly de-
mOnstrated and illustrated by those most
competent to weigh and measure the
true elements Of human greatness and
most c0nversant with thu whole public
and private conduct Of his illustrious
life. The value to the history and per.
manenee of our political institutions OF
the immense Influence Of this majestic
life cannot DO exaggerated. Other ma
tiOns are ready to accepl, With us, the
impressive sentiment Of FISHER Ames,
that washington changed mankind's
ideas of political greatness"

An Appeal to Women.

No one will deny but that there are two
sides to the great question which is
now agitating our little city, together
with our county and State yea, and our
" hole nation. God and humanity have
claim, rs well as business interests and
public enterprise. While it is we'll to use
all righteous means for the upbuilding of
the town, we dare not ignore that God,
who with His mighty breath, hath power
to level it to the earth; for He hath said,
except the Lord keep the city, the
Waterman waiteth in vain" And when
He has commanded "make straight paths
for your feet, let that which is lame be
turned ont OF the way" can we, without
mourning his wrath, favor the iniquitous
traffic, which has caused so many to
stumble and fall, yea, and has brought
such suffering, want aud misery to hun
dreds OF homes, right i'll our midst. The
mothers and wives of our land have
wrung their hands with anguish and
with broken, bleeding hearts, have cried
and will deliver, but we must do our
part. Let these questions from the pen
of the gifted worker in sister State,
take hold on your hearts, and answer as
unto God, for the eternal welfare of your
loved ones. Which of your boys, the
heaven of your heart and life, will yon
give in order that your city can be light
ed with gas, or brilliant with electric
light Which can you spare to help
your city grade and pave the streets
How long will you consent to tread on
sidewalks that the blood of souls has ena-
bled your city to lay for your conven-
iences How much will you take tor your
boy What is your father or your brother
worth to youi Will you without pro-
test give up your own husband to enable
the saloon keeper to put $500, 81 900 OF
81, 500 license into the treasury OF your
city Z Lift up your voices like trum.
pet, cry aloud, and spare not that oui
men may awake to our help. Make City
Councils ashamed, make politicians
afraid, make the ubiquitous liquor traffic
tremble under the righteous Indignation
of outraged womanhOod, and the swift
condemnation of an awakened and deter
mined people" We know that God IL
using the women of this land to advance
this cause, and in His word they trust
