An Impostor-Look Out for Her.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: About 10 days
ago woman who claimed TO be the widow of
Geo. S. Merritt, of the 18th n. Y. Cav, came to
Tampa. with her family Of four children, includ-
ing daughter about IL years old, and asked for
help, claiming that on her way South she had lost
all her money. She wore the W.R.C. badge, and
said she was member of the Relief Corps at
Belden, Mich. She also said that her late
husband had been a member of the GAL K.
Post at Missouri Valley, Iowa. We aided her
liberaly-the Post and the W.R.C. paying all
expenses incurred, including cost of tickets to
Gainesville, Fla, the place she wanted to reach
when she decided that she would not remain
in Tampa. In order to prove that she was
worthy or unworthy ] addressed letter to the
GAR Post at Missouri Valley, Iowa. making
inquiries in regard to the alleged membership
of George S. Merritt. Answer comes from
Adjutant Livingston, Of Belden Post, at Mis-
souri, Valley, saying that no person named
Merritt has ever been member of their Post.
He says also that from my description Of the
party he thinks it is the same outfit" that IL
or 10 months ago victimized some of the people
of that place, including the W.R.C. He states
that they made use of the name Merritt"
there, but he could not give the initials used.
At Sanford. in this State, she claimed
that sine had relatives in Tampa. She did
not say so here. When in Tampa she stated
that she had left certain Odd Fellows papers
in Sanford which would, if she had them, en-
able her to obtain help from the Odd Fellows.
A letter received yesterday from Sanford ill.,
forms US that she left no such papers there.
a letter of inquiry has been sent to the W.R.C.
at Belden, Mich, but as yet no reply has been
received. Enough is already known however,
to convince US that the woman is vile i'm

IN A WORLD WHERE CLEANLINESS IS
NEXT TO GOODNESS" NO PRAISE
IS TOO GREAT FOR
SAPOl 10

In a sound currency and who suffers most
by mischievous legislation in money mat
ters, Is the man who earns his daily bread
by his daily toll"
These words are as pertinent now as on
the day they were uttered, and ought to
impressively remind us that a failure in
the discharge Of our duty at this time must
especially inture those Of our countrymen
who labor. and who because Of their num-
Der and condition are entitled to the most
watchful care of their government
1t is of the utmost Importance that such
relief as Congress can afford in the existing
situation be afforded at once. The maxim
He gives twice who gives quickly" is di-
rectly applicable. 1t may be true that the
embarrassments from which the business
Of the country is suffering arise as much
from evils apprehended as from those ac-
tually existing. We may hope. too, that
calm counsels will prevail and that neither
the capitalists nor the wage earners give
way TO unreasoning panic, and sacrifice
their property or their interests under the
influence of exaggerated fears. Neverthe-
less. every days delay in removing enc Of
the plain and principal causes Of the pres
ent state of things enlarges the mischief al
ready done and increases the responsibility
of the government for it's existence. What
ever else the people have right to expect
from Congress they may certainly demand
that legislation condemned by the ordeal of
three years disastrous experience shall be
removed from the statute books as soon
as their representatives can legitimately
deal with IL.
Tariff Reform Must Wait.
II was my purpose to summon Congress
in special session early in the coming Sep
TENDER that we might enter promptly upon
the work of tariff reform, which the true
interests Of the country clearly demand,
which so large a majority of the people as
shown by their suffrages. desire and ex-
pect, and to the accomplishment Of which
every effort Of the present administration
is pledged. But while tariff reform has lost
nothing of immediate and permanent i'm
portance, and must in the near future en-
gage the attention of Congress, it has
seemed to me that the financial condition
of the country should at once and before
all other subjects, be considered by your
honorable body.
Prompt Repeal Urged.
I earnestly recommend the prompt re-
peal of the provisions of the act passed
July Ii, 1890, authorizing the purchase Of
silver bullion, and that other legislative
action may put beyond all doubt or mis-
take the intention and the ability of the
Government to fulfill its pecuniary obli-
cations in money universally recognized
by all civilized countries.

The Falcon arrived at Battle Harbor on
July Is, after a very rough and disagreeable
voyage from St. Johns His animals were in
a very bad condition. When he reached Tur-
navk he tried to get some dogs, as he had
arranged, but the prices were so exorbitant
that he refused to purchase, and visited Hope
dale. Here the same thing occurred. No more
news has yet come, but the advices stated that
the delay threatened the success Of his plans.
He intended to reach Bowdoin Bay, at the
north side of Whale Sound, Greenland, by July
25 but this he failed to do.
However, it is to be trusted that as yet he
has not been delayed too long for him to reach
Bowdoin Bay before the steamer is frozen in,
for then he will soon he safe for the Winter in
his w-built house, if he has no time left
for any other movements during the season.
Lieut. Peary's pluck and confidence deserve
success. and the fact that he has already made
one successful voyage into the regions whittier
he is going makes the world believe that in
stead of being a crank the Lieutenant is a
brave and able explorer, whose name is
destined to go down as perhaps the most sue
eessful OF all who have ventured far away into
the frozen North.
