TWENTY-FIVE years ago the idea of
producing silks in this country was
laughed at; to-day we are one of the
largest manufacturers of silk goods in
the world, and the prices are about
one-half what they were and the

A BRAVE AND NOTED WOMAN.
Death at Port Angeles of Mrs Caroline
Rodgers Smith, Aged Ga.


PORT ANGELES. Jan. 29.-(Speeial. Mrs. Caro-
line Rodgers Smith, widow of the late Victor
Smith, passed quietly away at IL 80 p. m. Satur-
day at the residence of her son, Norman K.
Smith, at the advanced age of 81.
Mrs. Smith was one of the pioneers OF the
Northwest, and is recognized as one of the most
important characters in this great Western coun-
try. She was born in Plymouth, n. H, the
daughter of Nathaniel p. Rogers, one of the
first of the antislavery leaders, a co-worker of
Garrison, Phillips, Thompson and other anti
slavery men, who have secured Tor the blacks
the freedom they now possess, and Frederick
Douglas, the renowned colored politician, owes
in part his freedom TO this good woman.
Her husband was great friend OF salmon P.
Chase, and the election of Chase as governor of
Ohio was greatly due to the work of Victor
Smith when he was associate editor of the Gin
cinnati Commercial, now the Commercial Gazette.
When Chase became secretary of the treasury
under Lincoln one of his first acts was TO APP
point Victor smith collector of the Puget sound
customs district
Mrs. Smith was the first white woman in Port
Angeles, and when the customs-house was
washed away il 1868 she saved two lives at the
risk of her own She was brave and gentle her
friends knew her and loved her, and any history
OF Washington that does not recognize her will
be imperfect

Mr.. Sweet when asked in a rect mt
interview, about his attitude on the
silver question replied by stating that
he had made up his mind fully
that the opponents of silver were
fighting it, not because Of its alleged
depreciation but e .ause they were re-
solved not to have silver on anyiterms.
They were determined to maintain the
contracted money basis and would
fight any proposition to enlarge that
basis. He (Mr. Sweet) was unalterably
In favor of treating silve. as money.
The present law scarcely recognizes the
metal IN such capacity. The mono
metallists insist that the value Of a sill
yer certificate IL maintained at par be-
cause the faith Of the government Is
pledged to redeem 1t in gold. If that
Is true we might as well have paper
straight representing nothing but gov
eminent credit. Mr.. Sweet called at
tention to the financial furry Of last
winter and pointed out how the call by
England for gold, the only recognized
money metal, had paralyzed the
money market Of the world. This
had been SO marked that ut the time
1t was impossible to borrow dollar
anywhere In the west. This country
found itself helpless in the emergency
and 1t was only by the greatest car,

Logic, women and love are three
forces hard to connect. But connecting
the three as closely as they seem capsble
of being joined, it is logical to judge
that women are best fitted to write fiction
which is purely romantic. At any rate,
Mrs. Amelia E. Barr, who is, perhaps,
the most popular American author Of
to day, leads one to this belief. She
has written an exquisitely romantic and
idyllic love story. which she has named
"Love for an Hour is Love Forever

in the columns of metropolitan weekly.
In what weekly it will appear has not

then to Texas.
