EDITOR NATIONAL REPUBLICAN ! have read
with pleas sure and satisfaction your editorial
on the late Charles =, Stone, and heartily in
dorse every sentiment thereof. The only re.
gret that feel is that such small amount as
s50per month should have been thought suf-
hcient by the wise senator's, whose very cH-
istence as such has been made secure by the
loyalty devotion, and energy of Gen. stone
] certainly am the last one to begrudge what
ever has been voted to Mrs. Grant, Mrs Gar
field, Mrs Hancock, Mrs. Logan, aud Mrs
Blair, for each of these ladies deserve well al
the hands of the nation, and receive no more
Than what their grateful Countrymen should

Mn. WooDBrRNE, Of Nevadap has
achieved fame ina day. His speech upon
the tarf will be as extensively read us any
that has been delivered on either side of the
question The fact that the Secretary of the
Treasury, the Secretary of State, and the
speaker of The House of Representatives
are members of British free trade club
"Nuwcdly working to establish free trade
in this country, is one that ought to be
known to every man in the nation. Being
known, it ought to damn the administra-
'i'n and the party which puts such men in

The Police Matron Movement.
CLARENCE CULLEN.


One of the noblest of works of women for wo-
men is that of the Woman's Christian Temperance
union in establishing marons at the various police
stations in ten of the large cities 1t was estab-
lished in Portland, Maine, in 1877 In Massa-
chusetts bill has been passed for the appoint
ment of one or more matrons in all the larger
cities. New York has bill before the legislature,
with prospect of its being passed. Chicago in
augurated the movement by the Woman's Chris
tian Temperance union placing matron at the
police station, and donating the salary to the city
because the city couldn't afford it. The first
quarter the matron at the Harrison street station
had fifteen hundred girls under her care. The
next year the city adopted the movement, and
now they have ten police matrons alternating day
and night between the five stations
Philadelphia has just made appropriations for
two more matrons, and has reported nine thousand
persons under their care, all the way from three
years upward This is all the noble work of good
women. 1t is no longer an experiment. and soon
the presence of good woman at every police sta
ton in the land will be a necessity
The following is from the speech of Mrs S. II.
Barney before the International Council of Wo-
men, held at Washington last March:
Women who are in the police stations are not
always bad by any mean. Sometimes they are ar
rested on suspicion or left alone in the city by
night, having perhaps missed train and having
been left penniless, and some girls come in the
city and are given liquor and perhaps drugged, Or
woman fants and falls in the street, and there is
nothing about her by which she can be identified.
These and many other reasons bring women to the
police station, the only shelter that is offered in
the great city for such emergencies. 1t may be
your sister; it may be mine, and what we ask for
our own we will ask for Others
Friends of this International Council, we repre-
sent the busiest women in the world, but / would
like to lay little part of this burden upon every
woman's heart. What we ask, friends, is that in
every city there shall be at some central station,
or at more stations if it is large city, some wo-
man with full police authority, into whose hands
every woman arrested shall be given and cared
for; that care to extend to the court, the matron
to go into the courts and sit by them and protect
them until sentenced or released.
little experience that came to me in this work
showed me what the presence of good woman
would mean in the police court. went there with
one in whom was interested, and found her with
five other girls who had never been in court be-
fore. As was there q note from the judge asked
me to withdraw. He said there would be things
take place that would not be pleasant for me to
hear, said, "May take these young girls with
