A GOOD REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN BADGE

1" INC r. u tOT 81 INC TlOHNc
Sir: hope and trust that by the time Nr. Blaine
arrives in New-Yorl City every Republican will dis
play campaign button, and especially such a
will mark the distinctvely Republican.
The Republicans have adopted the American flag
party emblem, and the best campaign button, in my
estimation, Is the American Flag Button This
shows more plainly than any other. II can be dis
tlnguished far you see It and you know
that the wcsrcr is Comrldc In Arms" The other
styles OF Republican buttons resemble the Cleveland
campaign buttons closely I'm respects that
IS sometimes difficult to tell the difference between
them. EMPIRE STATE

Sir: The 1rishmen Of New-York will have a kindly
feeling for Levi P. Morton when hey remember that
he gave 100000 10 buy food for starving Ire
land, and they cannot think It unfair to compare this
with the kindness OF Allen G. Thurman, who, while
lie did not contribute to starving Ireland, provided
Injuries for the rebel prisoners at Columbus, Ohio,
during tho war; and would have given them the
nccessarics and comforts OF life II they had needed
them. Tho sod Roman laughngly explains his

Realms that are not revealed to human

TREATMENT OF FELONS.
An Acute Inflammation Of tho Most Scr
Gus and Dangerous Type.

An Acute Inflammation of the Most Seri.
Gus and Dangerous Type.
The so-called felon is an acute in
fammation of the sheaths of the
tendons or of the coverings of the
bone. 1t is accompanied with very
severe throbbing pain, great tender
ness, and often much constitutional
disturbance. as indicated by fever and
rapid pulse. This affection is not
only very distressing, but is also at
tended with some danger. In persons
debilitated and sickly, death has been
known to result from poisonous alb
sorption. The skin covering the
fingers is very thick, so also are the
deeper coverings. especially that
which envelopsathe bone. When pus
forms. it finds an opening upward
difficult, and, therefore, burrows back
toward the hand. As the inflamma-
ton extends, the danger becomes in
tensifed. The abscess, if not checked,
sometimes proceeds up the wrist, and
even to the elbow. In the meantime
tho sufferings are terrible, the parts
are enormously swollen, and the skin
seems bursting. If knife is not used
to make free incisions along the track
of the disease, the pus will probably
at last struggle to the skin and dis
charge itself; but before doing so the
muscles will be broken down, honey
combed, and. to a considerable extent.
destroyed. Partial death of the at.
fected bone is not uncommon.
A felon is easily recognized; none
are so ignorant they can not detect it
in the early stage. While yet confined
to the end of the finger. if it appears
there. the sufferer, without waiting to
test the efficacy Of his neighbor's
whims, and the virtues of "suro
cures" should at once place himself in
the care of a physician. If he Is COM
petent. the fact will be readily ap-
parent, for he viii, even before there
is much swelling, insist upon opening
the abscess without delay. II the
physician urges this treatment, and tho
patient through fear of the knife de-
clines, then the latter assumes all re-
sponsibility. and for what may happen
subsequently, can blame no one but
If. on the other hand, the
attendant does not insist upon

WOMEN IN BATTLE.

A Threadbare Argument Against Wom-
Ans Right to Vote ContrOverted by
History-Her Value to tho Nation.
In the first place. the proposition that
women can not fight in war is utterly
groundless- Historical instances where
women not only led the men to battle,
but fought shoulder to shoulder with
them. are too numerous and well-known
to need repetition here. Especially is
this true in regard to beleagured strong
holds. Ancient and medieval history
offer ample proof of this statement; but
while these facts can not be gainsaid,
they undoubtedly form more or less
numerous exceptions; nevertheless, the
comparative rarity of such occurrences
IL not due to an inherent incapacity of
woman to WELD the sword, but to her
constantly increasing value in the So
oial organism.
In primitive state of development
men and women went on the war path
with their families. and women formed
. very important factor Ia the struggle.
Witness the invasion of the Tartars in
tho beginning of the thirteenth CEN
tury. In . largo measure this may
also be applied to the period of trans
migration. The German tribes, in
their invasions of the Western En-
pire. were frequently accompanied BY
their families. and. as Roman histo-
riAas testify. in case Of defeat, the vet
erans Of their tried cohorts had to fight
stubbornly 10 overcome the desperate
resistance Of tho women In charge Of

Generally speaking. the slur about
Thomas County cat. [volume] (Colby, Kan.) 1885-1891, 1888-09-13

women's cowardice Il hopeless nonsense
Under equal training, and when occa
sion demands, women display at .leas
as much fortitude and courage a. tn
bravest Of men; in fact, they are evel
apt to carry the latter quality too far
Any one who has seen women follow
the hounds will testify how regardless
of danger they are. More than once
have seen women override obstacles a
which most men would hesitate. Again
in less frivolous cases, as in the last
great blizzard, many women have rlsked
their life for the sake of others, and
that without any compulsiOn or stimu'
lus of excitement. In floods. condagrar
tions, during railroad disasters. cpl
denies, etc., women have demonstrated
their courage and devotion. Last,
though not least, the heroines OF ma
tiOnal revolutions are as exalted as their
male companions. One has only to
look at the women in the Russian re-
volt. Similar examples could be given
ad infnitum.
As regards regular warfare, especial
ly in modern times. there is no obstacle
save one why women could not shout
der the musket. Any normally devel-
Oped woman could endure the same
amount of fatigue and privation as the
average man, did her training CORE
spOnd to his. But-and there are a
great many buts-how are our sisters
educated? With boys the fundamental
principle is preparation, physical as
well as psychical, for a hard and con-
tinued struggle. With girls the funda-
mental principle, in most cases, is the
or something similar, and
However, this is a di-
gression.
AS, in a combat, it would be criminal
for the leading General, or even SUBJ
altern officer, to endanger his safety,
most military leaders have to keep be-
yond rifle range at any rate. So it is
with women. They do not, as a rule,
fight in the ranks. e., they do not
march, counter-march or pull the trig-
ger. Modern rules have almost entirely
direct combat or assault, it
is true; but, nevertheless, these have
an active though indirect part in the
struggle. Napoleon said that three
things are needed for waging wars
money, money, money. Now, in the
and wealth-producing
women certainly do not play
a very inferior role.
Women do not fight directly, because
it would be criminal to endanger their
lives. They are far too valuable to the
existence of any race to serve
as lannon's food. What influence
would the loss of as many young wo-
men as men during the last rebellion
have exercised on the growth and de-
velopment of our country? The dis
aster would be irreparable. And that
is the reason why women do not fight.
