MISS MARY III. KROCS.
Another Lady Correspo udent TO
Arrive on the Australia

The ADVERTISER announced yes
terday that Miss Mary H. krous, a
neice of Rear-Admiral Brown, L.
s. n, would arrive on the Austria
LA this morning to represent the
Chicago Inter-Ocean. Miss krous
would have been here sooner, but
she had the misfortune to break one
of her limbs which delayed her de-
parture. In speaking of the tai
ented lady, the s. F. Examiner
says:
Miss Krous occupies much such a
position in journalism IN the Missis-
sippi valley as Annie Laurie does on
the Pacific Coast. She has done much
special work that has attracted a
great deal OF attention. She has
written also considerable verse that
has beeu widely copied, among which
is the poem, Little Brown Hands"
In 1888 Miss krous was the special
and confidential correspondent dur
ing the bitter political campaign IN
Indiana when Benjamin Harrison
was the Republican nominee for the
Presidency. For a good while past
she has been editor of the woman's
department and also of the home
department of the big Chicago pa
per.
Besides doing newspaper work in
the late island kingdom she will look
up some matters of interest relative
to the Worlds Fair, OF which she Is
one of the Board of Lady Managers
Mrs. Potter Palmer has specially
commissioned her IN this.
Miss Krous is rather tall, with dark
hair and eyes, very bright, and ire
mendously energetic.

Invitations are out for the re-
ception to be given to Captain G.

city. The affair will take place
at the Opera House on Friday
evening, and it promises to be the
most successful of the kind in the
history of Honolulu.

This is the bark Progress.
1t is the bark that will bring

gress is what we all want.
There cannot be any progress
unless you buy your hosiery
from Fishel.

a hole in the heel, but ducks
like rainy weather, and
FIsHEL's bargains are the talk
of the town.

What's the matter with the
anchor? FIsHEL has an anchor
in low prices and steady sales.
He don't sell anchors, but pea.
nuts should be roasted before
eaten.
Why does an anchor resem-
bic an old tomato can ? Be-
cause it don't. Buy toys of
FIsHEL. Goats like tomato cans
and hard times melt away when
bargains are offered. FIsHEL
has 'em-not tomato cans, but
bargains.

A WORTHY CANDIDATE.
The Nomination Of John A.Bowles,
ESQ.,, for the Legislature
Probable.

Since the announcement in the VIR-
GINIAN several weeks ago that Mr.. John
A. Bowles, one of our most popular at
torneys, would be a candidate for the
Legislature, number of Democrats
throughout the District have rendered
that gentleman their hearty support, ana
will use all fair means to secure his NOM
ination. If it shall be the pleasure OF
the Convention to name Mr.. Bowles Tor
this important office, it will be but just
recognition of the services of native
of this District, who has been
staunch Democrat from boyhood,
rendering valuable aid in every cam
paign since he was old enough to under
stand the duties of citizenship. When
important Investigations as to the con-
dition of the political machinery in this
section were to be made, Mr.. Bowles was
chosen to perform said service, and he
always responded cheerfully to the de-
mands of his party. By his wise counsel
and tireless energy the Registration
books were put in proper shape. and the
voters brought to the polls. From pres
ent indications Mr.. Bowles will go into
the Convention backed by solid dele
CATION from his native county. Without
disparagement of the claims OF other
candidates, we believe that his nomina>
ton would be ratified by the voters OF
both parties in the District, as he is pop
ular with all classes. Let the friends OF
this worthy young Democrat rally to his
support and bestow upon him this high
honor.
Let the result be as it may. Mr.. Bow
les will abide by the verdict OF his party,
fairly expressed, and cordially support
the nominee.

A Southern Man for Doorkeeper

In the organization of the next House
Mr.. E. B. Smith, of Texas, will be
strong candidate for doorkeeper. Mr..
Smith has the backing OF most OF the
members representing the South and
West. When the last Congress was Or
ganized the fact that there were two
candidates for the speakership from the
Southern States caused the South to
waive claim it had formerly made to
the doorkeepership. Up to this time
during several preceding sessions the
doorkeepership was accorded to the
South, no matter which party had con-
troll. In the comming session the South
as section, is not interested particually
in the candidacy of Mr.. Crisp, for the
reason that his election as Speaker
seems already assured. The Southern
members will therefore renew their claim
for the doorkeepership. and SO far as
can be ascertained at present have
agreed upon Mr.. Smith as their can
didate. His name will be presented by
the Texas delegation and his candidacy
will be supported by Southern and Wes-
tern members generally.
Mr.. Smiths chief opponent will be MIR.
Turner. of New York, the doorkeeper of
the last House.

Col. O'FerralI Indorsed.

WINCHESTER, VA, July 9.-At a meet
ing of the friends of Col Chas T. OFFER
rail-, held at the Courthouse Hall yester-
day, the following resolutions were
adopted:
WHEREAS, A recent issue of one of the
Winchester papers published an article
signed IA Democrat" which contains a
violent attack upon the private charac-
ter of our Representative in Congress,
Hon. Charles II. O'Ferrall,
Resol0ed, That we, as citizens of the
county of Frederick and city of Win
chester, irrespective of our political pref
erences, take this manner of publicly an
bouncing our respect, esteem and affec>
ton for Col. O'Ferrall as a citizen, pub
lie officer and approved, tried and true
soldier and true friend, and we declare
that it is the sense of this meeting that
we are aware of no circumstance in the
private or public record of Col. OFFER
rail- which would render him untitled to
serve with honor and credit to the State
in the capacity of her Chief Executive,
and we are of the opinion that his elec>
tion would reflect credit and lustre upon
the position.

The Harrison Record for Removals
TJnhr0kan

WASHINGTON, July 9.-The records of
the Postoffice Department show that
during the first four months of the press
ent administration, ended July A. 1893,
the total number of presidential post
masters appointed was 434, as against
SIS appointed during the first four
months of Mr.. Harrison's administra-
ton, and 1923 during the first four months
of Mr. Cleveland's former administra-
ton.
As to the appointment of fourth-class
postnasters the records show that dur
ing the first four months of the present
administration there were $3.50 made on
designations and death and 1926 on re-
movals, making total of 1856.
The number appointed on designations
and death during the corresponding
period of Mr.. Harrisons administration
was 3,649 and on removals 1880, making
total of II, 109. There were, therefore,
A 1904 more fourth-c class postnasiers APP
pointed ON removals during the first four
months Of the last administration than
during the corresponding period in this.

A Plan to Simplify circulation of
Paper Money

WASHINGTON, July 9.-The PROPOSE
ton that has been made that after re-
pealing the Sherman silver purchase law
Congress pass an act providing for the
redemption of all the various kinds OF
paper money issued by the treasury
with one uniform treasury note has been
received with considerable favor by ot1i-
Gals of the Treasury Department. There
are at present six kinds of paper IN CIR
culatiOn-national bank notes, United
States notes, (greenbacks,) treasury nos
es, (coin certiticates,) gold certificates
and currency certificates. 1t is the
avowed policy of the present admins
tration of the Treasury Department TO
MAINTAIN all of these notes at par with
gold and to redeem them in gold upon
demand. In other words, the treasury
is not on gold basis, with large vol
ume of currency outstanding, based on
small gold reserve and the credit OF
the government. This being SO, 1t is
urged that matters would be greatly
simplified if the government were to call
in all government notes outstanding and
issue in their stead one uniform treasu>
ry note redeemable in gold on demand.
This would leave in circulation but two
kinds of paper money-treasury notes
and bank notes. The immediate effect
of this would be to make all the curren>
cy of the country equally good. AS it
stands now it is equally good as long as
every one has implicit confidence in the
government and in the ability of the
treasury to redeem them all in gold coin.
| As matter of fact they are not all on
| the same footing in financial world, how
ever. The gold certificates rank first, as
they call for a specific number of gold
dollars deposited in the treasury vaults
that can be used for no other purpose
| than their redemption. Then come the
greensbacks, that, under the construc-
ton that has been put upon the law for
the resumption of specie payment by
! the successive administrations since it
| went into effect. have been made as good
as gold. The coin certificates rank next
and were regarded with considerable
suspicion in some circles until President
Cleveland declared ~ unmistakable
terms that they were to be held at par
with gold. The silver certificates rank
last, as they call simply for the silver
dollars that have been deposited in the
treasury. They are regarded with such
disfavor by New York bankers that CON-
paratively few of them have benn held
in that city since their issue was first au-
thorized. They have been in circulation
largely in the West and South.

JUSTICE BLATCHFoRD DEAD.
The Eminent Jurist Succumbs to a
Long Illness.

NEWPORT, July 7.--Associate Justice
Samuel Blatchford, of the United States
Supreme Court, passed quietly and
peacefully from earth at 7:20 this even
ing He retained consciousness until an
hour or two before his death. There was
no sudden change in his condition, SIM
ply the gradual slipping away which has
been taking place for the last week.
Associate Justice Samuel Blatchford
was born to the law, his distinguished
father, Richard milford Blatchford,
having nearly rounded out his four score
years as one of the most distinguished
practitioners at the New York bar.
Samuel Blatchford was horn in New
York city March 8, 1920, and lacked
nearly four years of reaching the age at
which his father died. He was a preco-
cious lad and graduated from Columbia
College at the age of II, a fact not for
gotten by the faculty of that institution
when comforting upon him the honorary
degree of LII. d. thirty years later.

Young Men for Federal Offices.

FOom the Washington Star.
The preference that the President
shows toward young men in making his
appointments is quite natural. Young
men have energy. and their minds are
free from the prejudices of the past
Besides, young man is not SO likely to
have burdened himself with an embar-
RAISING political record or to have SO
much that needs forgiveness in the line
of personalities tered in the heat of
campaign as an older politician. The
older war horses have more training,
but the youngsters are not likely to be
quite SO heavily handicapped.

Men Who Will Lead the Debate,

Moi w no w Ill Lead the Debate.
The complexion of the House has
changed SO that it is difficult to say at
this moment who will take the most
prominent part in the debate in favor of
the repeal of the Sherman law Among
the most prominent men will be W.
Bourke Cochran, Charles Tracey and
John Dewitt Warner, of New York; M.
ID, Harte-, of Ohio, and William L. Will
son, of West Virginia. They will have
the assistance of the leaders on the Res
publican side, including Reed, Julius C.
Burrows, Of Michigan; John Dalzell, of
Pennsylvania, and others. The oppo-
nents OF repeal, or rather those in favor
OF repeal with free coinage substitute,
will be led by Richard P. Bland and
William H. Hatch, of Missouri; James
b. McCreary, of Kentucky; William J.
Bryan, of Nebraska; Charles j. Boather.
OF Louisiana; Francis Newlands, of Ne
vada, and others. 1t is probable some of
the men who have heretofore taken
prominent part in advocating free coins
age will be found either openly ON the
other side or inactive in the next session.
In the Senate the free>coinage men
have very strong leaders, including
Henry NJ. Teller and Edward O. Wolcott
OF Colorado; William M. Stewart, of Ne
vada; John T. Morgan, of Alabama; J.
T. Jones, of Nevada, and John w. Dan
lei, OF Virginia, and nearly all the other
senators from the South. On the other
side probably the ablest advocate of the
repeal OF the law will be Senator Sher-
man himself. He will have most of the
Republican Senators back of him excent
those from the silver States. Senator
voorhees,, when he was put at the head
OF the financial committee, was under
stooo 10 be IN favor of free coinage and
Senator Vest was understood to stand |
with him. Mr.. Vest will now favor the
repeal OF the Sherman law, and it is nm
aerstood voorhees, will also. The mar.
lamentary lead on the Democratic s;da
may be taken by Mcpherson, of New
Jersey, however, as he is the most ont
spoken opponent of free coinage on the
democratic side of the Senate. He will,
De supported by Senator Gray, of Della
ware. Senator Brice, of Ohio, in some
emarks he made at the last session of
he Senate showed that he had very
lear ideas ON monetary affairs, and he
nay take leading part in the debate.

The South's Paying Investments.

Lie OOuGu raging investments.
The aggregate of interest payments
and dividends on LIST July in the South.
says the BALTIMORE Manufacturers Re-
cord, was as much AS $25, 100000. Out
of III Southern banks only eight are
paying less!than per cent. dividends.
Thirty-six pay per cent, but the great
er number pay from 8 to 12 per cent.
The South is not affected greatly by the
presant stringency, having shortened sail
a year or more ago. Southern business
men," says the Record, '.have been mov>
all transactions as near to cash basis
as possible. 1t is to this cause that the
stability of the South during the present
disturbed conditions is chiefly DUE"

An Extra Session of Congress.

The Philadelphia Times, Col. Alex
McClure's paper, thus forcibly states the
position of the President, with reference
to the money stringency. 1t says:
1.-THE Presidents proclamation conven,
ing Congress in extraordinary session is
a strong, clear. emphatic statement of
the emergency which requires legislative
action. and while it gives notice of grave
danger, its firm and confident tone will
have reassuring effect upon the coun-
try.
''Mr. Cleveland is not u man who
yields to panic. He has watched the
financial situation carefully and calmly,
paying little ayparant attention to out
side opportunities, but keeping himself
thoroughly informed of the course of
public opinion; and the moment he is
satisfied not only that remedial legisla>
ton is needed, but that it can be secured,
he calls Congress together in terms that
can leave no doubt of it's duties, and
should leave no doubt of their prompt
fulfilmant.
1.-THE proclamation states the case ex-
actly, that 1.-THE present perilous con-
dition is largely the result of financial
policy which the executive branch of the
government finds embodied in unwise
laws, which muet be executed until re-
pealed by Congress-" This includes pri-
marily the unwise Sherman act COMPEL
ing the purchase of silver bullion, and
secondarily, those unwise restrictions
upon banks of issue which prevent the
expension of the currency in proportion
to the demands Of business. The Execu-
tive is powerless to remedy these evils,
and Congress is summoned g to the end
that the people may be relieved through
legislation from present and impending
danger and disaster"
''The call for an extra session early
next month will be generally accepted
as an assurance that the relief demanded
will be obtained, and with this prospect
before it the business world can 90 on
through the coming month hopefully,
instead of faltering in doubt and despair.
If the leading men of all parties will but
agree meanwhile to sink their partisan
differences and unite in common effort
for sound financial policy, the present
evil will but open the way to greater
future prosperity
