Mr.. Blaine.

Mr.. Blaine's utterance in behalf
Of the national Republican ticket was
as prompt as it was emphatic. The
great Republican chieftian no soon
er heard of the result of the contest
at Minneapolis than he took up his
pen to write stirring appeal to his
fellow Republicans to move solidly
against the common foe with the
resolution, energy and persistence"
that means certain victory.
Mr.. Blaine's action was worthy of
his fame, of his splendid career and
of his answering loyalty to the
great party that has honored him
with it's love and trust. 1t showed
the utter lalsehood of the Democrat
ic claim that the nomination Of Pres
ident Harrison would produce divi-
sion in the Republican ranks.
Mr.. Blaine sliced the earliest pos
sible moment to put himself on re-
cord before the country as advocat-
ing the Presidents reelection. His
decisive words will carry great
weight. BY assuring absolutely the
unity Of the party in the approaching
campaign, they removed the last
foundation for Democratic hopes
The President, whose administration
is a record of honor, will be elected,
and he will have no more earnest
and energetic supporters than the
the devoted personal adherents Of
Mr.. Blaine.

Memorial Day and Independence
Day,
n. Y. Press.

Memorial Day and Independence
Day.
THERE are two great National
commemoration days in this country,
each Of which is connected with VIC
torious war. One of the mis- Memorial
day, which has just passed, the other
is independence day. which is but a
few weeks ahead. While the events
of one day are fresh in recollection,
anticipations of the other comes be-
meath the grateful shadow of oyer
arching boughs. Both days are eel
ebrated with music eloquence, para
DIES, and on both the glorious Ameri-
can flag is unfurled every where to
the breeze.
Yet there are striking differences.
Memorial day is more solemn, more
quiet, prehsps more thoughtful, GER
tainly more pensive than Indepen-
dence day. 1t is fuller of the spirit
of gratitude. 1t touches a more ten
der chord in our hearts. 1t is less
given to expression of triumph than
that of patriotism in unobtrusive
forms. Explosives play a small part in
Memorial day and pyrotechnics none
at all. Now and then volley Of
musketry or a salvo of artillery is
fired when visiting a cemetry, in i'm
itation of the last solemn rites that
soldiers are wont to pay to their de-
parted comrades over open graves.
But fre-crackers and sky.rockets
have no place on May 80, and are
reserved for July 4th-
To a reflective mind not the least
striking difference is that on the
former day all the flags are at half
mast.
Both days belong in part to Amer
lean youth, but not in the same way.
Unrestrained hilaritv may almost be
said to characterize the small boy on
Independence day, nor do his sisters
and elder brothers fail to make mer-
ry and be glad. So far as American
youth are enclined to attach defnate
historical associations with the oc-
casion of cannon, crackers and bal
loon assensions they are apt to think
more about the depredations of the

''rc'l coats" and how they were
mowed down like grass at Bunker
Hal than about the lessons of duty
and bravery that the boys of 1882
may learn from the example set by
the boys of 1776. Memorial day on
the contrary, comming as it does
when most Of the public schools are
in session. is yearly taken advantage
OF for the purpose of teaching patrio-
tism, that lesson which is behooves
American children to learn, even
though they miss some desirable
knowledge of dead languages and
living crustaeeans. 1t is a good sight
see the school battalions marching in
rear Of Union Veterans to join in
strewing flowers upon heroes silent
resting places. 1t is also a good
sightlto them with their bright young
faces, their joyous laugh, a MIXTURE
stars and stripes in one hand and
their bunch of frc-crackers in the
other, celebrating their country's
birth day. Both of these days teach
a needed lesson and recalls memo
ries that a free people cannot afford
to forget. Maryville has celebrated
one and she is gong to celebrate the
other and invites the whole county
to be present and participate in the
festivities.

A Remarkable Woman,

Miss Maria Morgan, better known
as "Mindy" Morgan, who has just
died, was one Of the most remark
able newspaper women of the coun-
try. She was nearly CT years old,
and for % years had been a live
stock reporter of the New York
Times. She WAS born in Cork,
Ireland, the daughter of II country
squire who died when she was
young. She took personal super
vision of his estate, and raised cat
tie and horses for the London
market. Her brother left the army
few years later and took charge
of the estate. Little provision had
been made for his sister. Miss
Morgan went to Italy to study art,
and King Victor Emanuel appoint
ed her to go to England and Ireland
and buy stock of Irish hunting
mares for his private stable. The
commission was executed so salts
factor ~ that he presented her with
a gold watch ard diamond star. In
1869 she came to this country and
sought work.
After many rebutfs, she obtained
a p acc on the staff of tie Times as
cattle reporter. She had a ard
time at first, but gradually won the
respect OF the cattlemen and her
fellow-reporters. Her writings did
much to bring about an improve.
ment of cattle. She grew famous
as a cattle expert was invited to
give an address before the Legisla-
ture, and went to Washington, by
invitation, to give the President
her views on transportation. She.
travelled all over the country, and
WAS invited to all conferences of cat
tie men. Besides her work on the
Times, Miss Morgan acted as sta
ton agent for the Pennsylvania
railroad at Methuen, n. j., where
she lived for many years in the sta
ton. She was living there when
she died, though she and her sister
had recently built a house on Stat
Ell Island.

Women at Minneapolis,

There were four women present
at the National Republican C0nven-
ton in Minneapolis, Mrs. Therese
w. Jenkins and Mrs. Cora Georgi-
ana Carlton, Of Wyoming, and Mrs.
Donaldson and Mrs. G. E. Wolverton,
of Oregon.
AT the last moment two of the
alternates were unable to 60, aud
the delegation unanimously elected
these two ladies Cloth of whose hus-
bands are deligates-at-large) to fill
the vacancies. The party of deli
gates, including husban and
wives, came on from Portland, Ore,
in private car, and enjoyed the
journey, In this case instead of
separating husbands and wives
! politics kept them from being sep.
Grated.
The Wyoming women were
cheered at the station when they
left home, and were greeted with
cheers all along the route. The
presence of the women at the con-
vention is the source of much COM
ment in the papers, and is the
best advertisement woman suffrage
has received for long time.
Some of the comments are of the
would-be funny kind, but in the
main they are friendly and encour.
aging. The Boston Globe says:
This is the first time in onr histo
ry that women have been chosen
delegates to a national convention.
1t will doubtless net be the last
time. When women are fully quail
flied to assert all the prerogatives
of citizenship, as they are in Wyom.
ing, they have as clear a right to
represent the Safe in the national
convention as have men.
We readily declare some things
to be impossible; but who is prepar-
ed to say that woman will not
sit in the presidential chair?
Sex equality in government and
politics is confronted by the barrier
of centuries of adverse tradition.
But it marches on with surprising
strides. An elective queen in this
country is no more out of place than
one seated by hereditary consent
abroad.
1t is no rash prediction to assert
that the child is born who will see
a woman seated in the presidential
chair. Thomas Jefferson will not
be fully vindicated until this gov.
eminent rests on the concent all Of
the governed.

In carrying out their program of
using the third party to throw the
election of President into the House,
the democratic bosses of the House
have become very gracious towards
the third party representatives.
They assisted them in getting the res
olution adopted by the House in
structing the Ways and Means COM
mittee to report the sub-treasury
bill, and Speaker Crisp has promis-
ed them that the committee on rules
will set aside three days for debate
thereon, as soon as the apprOpriat-
ion bills are all disposed Of.

SENATOR Morrill, COMPOUNDED the
democratic anti-protection members
of the Senate committee on Finance
the other day when his report on
the effect Of the tariff laws upon
trade relations with Canada was un-
der discussion, by showing that the
statistics presented by Senator
Mcpherson in minority report,
claiming to prove that producers of
American farm products are not
benefited by the Mckinley tariff law,
were unreliable and utterly worth
less, and to clinch his argument he
quoted recent utterances of Lord
Salisbury and Sir Charles Upper in
favor of protection.

THE message to the pupils recent
ly issued by the Executive Commit
ZEE of the National Columbian Pub
lie School Celebration speaks Wig
orous word to every one of the sew
eral million American boys and
girls. How far the word will have
effect depends upon each individual
boy and girl. Once enlisted in the
enterprise they will feel the stimulus
that comes from being in great
movement, one of mighty mass,
working for common end. When
that end is the glory of such count
ny as ours, is it not worth little
sacrifice? We hope that the pupils
in our schools will be as enterprising
in moving in this matter as those in
any other place in the State. Our
schools should move with equal step
on that day with Ill other schools
throughout the Republic. Failure
to participate in this national dem
onstraation will doubtless be cause
for regret in later years to all pupils
who permit themselves to be left out

Why Blaine Resigned

Special Telegram to the Chicago Inter- Ocean.
Many causes have been alleged
for the action of Mr.. Blaine in ter
minating his relation with the Pres
ident 50 abruptly. The final cause,
was not disclosed however, until to-
day. The Canadian officials who
came to Washington to talk over the
questio!apending between the State
Department and the Dominion had
one corSsfence the day proceeding
the osie.atIon, and met on Satur-
day INV III, to Continue the dis
'clAjioE. Mr.. Blaine attended the
meeting or June 3rd. only half an
hour, excusing himself because of
his desire to proceed with the bus
ines of the Canadians.
At the Saturday meeting confer
ence he was making statement Of
his views Of the points in dispute,
and What in his judgement
was the question at Issue and the
remedy for the difference between
these two countries. There was
also present John Foster who has
been atten cling to much State De-
partment work during Mr.. Blaine's
absence and illness and in the
midst of the remarks of Mr.. Blaine,
he is said to have interrupted him
with the suggestion that the views
just expressed would hardly have
the Presidents approval.
Mr.. Blaine proceeded with his
remarks and reiterated what had
already been stated adding with
emphasis that the State Depart
ment was able to take care
of all the business belonging to it
without advice or interference from
any one holding subordinate pc,
sitions in it. Thereupon Mr.. Eos.
ter then said he knew Mr.. Blaine
was not presenting the views of the
President and proceeded state
them by his directinn and in his
name.
"Gentlemen,n said the Secretary
"this conference is adjourned, and
he quickly left the room penning

THE Senate broke the record in
the matter of disposing Of general
appropriation bills when it
passed the consular and diplomat
icsbill within thirty minutes from the
time it was called up by Senator
Hale. This was most remarkable
piece of legislative work, as the
amendments to the bill as passed by
the House were numerous and i'm
portant, and each of them had to be
read and agreed to by the Senate
before the entire bill could be pass
ed Nearly all of these amendments
we're made to check the silly attempt
of the democrats in the House to
cripple our consular and diplomatic
service just at the time when our in
creasing foreign commerce makes it
advisable to strengthen both. Of
course there will be fight in confer
ancc over these amendments, but
probabilities are that the Senators
will insist upon them and the House
will have to give in.
