Brooklyn's Brave Women.

To the Editor:
Please allow me space to express a word OF
appreciation and praise for those brave, sacri-
nning and patriotic brooklyn women. who in their
courageous endcavOrs to overthrow a corrupt gov
eminent, from the Mayor down, spare no effort to
succeed. It seems that proportionately to the
women everywhere acquire and learn to exercise,
men lose their power OF opposition. their strong
Will to protest and their desire Of independence,
as fer as all local government is concerned. In
the face Of the regrctful fact that so many thou
sands Of men forget thei. FIRST duties as citizens,
and that they are too emasculsted. or weak. or
selfish. or un- American to even go at election times
to register ami vote. II is refreshing and invig-
Grating. to say the least, to see noble women or
towards the realization Of good and honest city
government. Eventually the words ''womanly
courage may mean something far more powerful
than manly courage And. at all events, with
such brave mothers and sisters. there is good
cause for the realization OF the fond hopes that
future generations will not meckly carry the yoke
put on their necks by prospective Cookers, Nc
Laughlins and sheehans. With a great majority
in the senate overpowered by a slim minority
tho state Of New York subject to the wiles and
Nhims Of barterinE politicians; with hypocrisy and
egotism domineering and reigning everywhere, per-
haps what men are too iniolent or weak to oppose
successfully. sweet. faithful and morally pure and
strong womanhood may overcome and change.

OF Baker City, Or. was recalled today.
He testified TO selling Mccarthy = horse
before he left Sumter valley. when McCar-
thv. Lewis and himself discussed the run
ming qualities OF a horse.
Mrs. Morgan being recalled, related how
n OF the robbers had been shot by his
own revolver on the resrea. from Ros,yn;
how they crossed the Columbia river in an
old boat for which they made oars: how
they separated after getting ashore. and
how they deserted their horses after being
fred on by the posse in pursuit from Ros-
lyn. She also repeated the story of the
cartridge bel. and the counting
of the stolen money in the cabin.
She testified to Sheriff Simmons.
Of Yakima. coming TO Alfredo looking for
the robbers; that Lewis SEM her TO the
house TO ascertain his business, which she
did She explained her hatred of Lewis
being occasioned by the cruel and inhu-
man treatment of her sister, his wife. and
that on one occasion ne compelled her
to dance at the point of a gun. Lewis on
that occasion drew a gun on witness. tell
ing her ii she ever divulged his secrets he
would cut off her ears and nose and other
wise distigure her so "a dog wouldn't look
at her." Lewis told her that Billy. Fred.
George and Nellie Mccarthy went with
him to rob the bank.
Joe Brooks testified that he saw Billy.

burg in the hands of the officers. Witness
testified to a brown wig being around the
house and to hearing the money counted:
he couldn't tell how much.
The prosecution here rested and the
court adjourned until Monday. The pre-
sent jury was not permitted the liberty of
the city, like those in the Lewis case. and
the general impression is that they will DO
more apt to convict.
