Our Political Supporters.

The political superiors of women
have again been manifesting their
superiority. This time it was in the
Italian and French Chambers of Dep
uties. In Italy, all the ministers
resigned. When Their designations
were announced, we are told:
"Sig. Giolitti spoke amid tumult
tf Interruptions and insulting cpl
thets. Addressing Seffor lmbriana,
a radical member, he said: "Your
language suits you. Your insults
do not soil the points of my boots. F"
The chamber was in a uprear, the
members yelling like mad-men. The
excitement was intensified by the
action of the extremists, who, ris-
ing from their seats, waved their
hands in the air, and, with clenched
fists. threatened Sig. GioIitti with
physical violence. While all this
uuroar was going on, Sig. Giolitti,
male and trembling, stood surround
ed by circle of his friends, and it
was evident they feared the excited
extremists would try To carry their

w. & Il. u.

The county w. G. T. U. conven-
ton held at Westphalia, Dec. 18th
and 18th, was a very interesting
meeting.
Thursday, 3 p. M, the conven-
ton convened in the M. E. church.
After devotional exercises, the con-
vention was opened by Mrs. F. L..
Palmer, the president being de-
tanned by sickness. Mrs Slocum
was appointed secretary pro tenn.
Reading of minutes, followed by
reports of Unions, showing per-
sistent efforts to maintain The cause.
Next, report of superintendent.
f. L. Palmer read paper on
Evangelistic Work, followed by dis
cussion by Mrs. Craig and Mrs.
Reid.
At A o'clock the school came
marching in, with song, led by
Prof. Mccarthy and Miss Sutton,
the teachers. After several songs
by the school and remarks by Mr..
Mccarthy and Miss Sutton, Mrs.
Reid talked to the children in an
interesting and sprightly way. Mrs.
Palmer spoke of the temperance
pledge cards, and eleven expressed
a wish to sign. The cards were left

and columns of women, brooms in
hand, grooming and polishing the
streets so thoroughly that women
pedestrians the next day allowed
their skirts to drag as they would in
their own drawing-rooms.
Then, too, women would look
more to the sanitary condition of the
abodes of the poor and best of all,
we should see, at last, woman re-
ceiving as much pay for the same
work as man.
But, as have said, | do not ex-
pect the millennium. Suffrage alone,
by itself, has made men no better;
why should it make women better?

chance of order being restored, and

The Legislators Of France have
also been INDUCING in "scenes OF
tumult."
Only suppose a similar scene had
taken place at meeting of the
Board of Lady Managers, Suppose
the ladies had yelled and acted
like lunatics," and waved their
hands in the air and with clenched
fists threatened" Mrs. Bertha Honore
Palmer with physical violence"
while a ring of her friends gtood
around to guard her, and after a
prolonged exchange of threats and
insults" the meeting had to be ad-
iourned in disorder! If such thing
had happened in the Woman's Re
lief Corps, or the Charity Club, or
the Woman Suffrage Association, or
even in an obscure sewing circle
among women entirely unframed in
public affairs, newspapers all over
the country would be quoting it as
proof that women are not fit to vote.
But when it is the picked statesmen
of two highly,civilized nations who
make such a spectacle of themselves
none of these papers quote 1t as
proof that men are unfit tor politics,
nor do they make any remarks about
"the excitsable sex" Undoubtedly
there is a good deal Of human nature
in women, but there seems to be
plenty in men as well.

JUST YOU AND l.

If you and /, my dear, should try
To do what we know is duty,
This world of ours, with its sun and
showers,
Would blossom into beauty.
There'd be more joy without alloy,
There'd be much less of signing,
If you and !, my dear, SHOULD try,
And never give up trying
If you and I, when the heavy sky
Spills over with it's tears, dear,
And the world looks sad and the
times are bad
And life waste of years.. dear
If you and |, as l said, should try
To laugh and be right CHEEKY,
Do you know 'twould prove that
light and love
Could make the day less dreary?
. II you and |, when we'd like to cry,
Should hum bit of tune, dear,
And gayly smile-in little while
The weather'd seem like June,
dear.
If when we fret, with eyes tear-wet,
Der some of the things that
bother,
We'd pitch right in with heartyvim
And help dear, tired mother.
, q wouldn't it be happier world,
And wouldn't it be worth living,
If more and more from our heart s
full share
OF love we'd just be giving!
So, dear, let's try, just you and /,
And never give up, o never,
And lite will be brighter and sad
hearts lighter
Because of our endeavOr.

| EVENING" devotional ex
ercises, extracts from Mrs. L. B
Smiths address at district conven.
ton were read by Mrs. Slocum.
The evening was devoted to the
subject of Equal Suffrage. Mrs.
Craig, wife of Rev. Craig, and Miss
Sutton, one of the teachers in the
public school, both had very in
teresting papers in favor of Equal
Suffrage, followed by short speeches
by several citizens of Wastphalia.
Prof. Mccarthy was the only one
who spoke on the negative, and we
gave him credit for doing so Just for
argument.
Mrs. Reid told us of Goods Wo-
man." Rev. Craig closed the debate
with some earnest, fitting words.
The exercises were interspersed with
excellent, appropriate music. West
phalia may be proud of her singers
they added much to the success
of the meeting. Friday, 18th, we
were invited by the teachers to visit
the school, when we heard more
singing from the school. Mrs. Reid
gave the children short talk about
the temperance pledge.
Met at the church at 9:45. De-
votional exercises led by Mrs.
Archer. After reading minutes, land
report of resolution committee, a

W estphalia, which, we trust, will
be the means of doing much good.

work in the Sunday school
Convention closed with short
talk on "Consecration" by F. l..

TO OPEN THE STRIP.
LECRETARY SMITH HAS MATTERS
UNDER WAY.
The F=1Hous Cherokee strip VIII BE
Opened For Settlement as Soon as Ar
Engagements Can Be COmpleted-settIers
Are waiting Patiently.

WASHINGTON, March 21.-Secretary
Hoke Smith is making active prepara-
tions to carry into effect the act ratify-
ing the agreement with the Indians,
ceding the government the Cherokee
Strip in the Indiun Territory. In a
letter to principal Chief Harris, the
secretery advises him as to what steps
are necessary to be taken on the part OF
the Indians, and suggests that he call
the national council together to take
action as to the allotments and other
details as they may see fit. In a letter
to Governor Seay, of Oklahoma, the
secretary asks for information and sug-
gestions as to the establishment of the
new counties, and other matters con-
nected with the proposed opening of the
Strip to public settlement.
Preparing Allotment Rules.
The commissioner of Indian affairs
has been directed to prepare rules and
regulations to govern in making the
allotments provided for in the agree
ments, for which there are already on
file more than a hundred applications.
In view of this complication Chief
Harris has been requested to indicate
what the views of the councillors are IN
regard to it. The assistant attorney

the payment to the Shawneese and
Delawares of their respective shares in
the proceeds of the sale to the govern
ment, and all other needful preparations
are being made to hasten the opening OF
the Strip to settlement.
No Disposition to Force Matters.
James II. Clancy, United States Indian
inspector, now at Arkansas City. Kan,
in report just received at the interior
department, expresses the opinion that
there are many people camped about Ar
kansas City and Caldwell and many
have rented houses in each of these
cities waiting for the opening, but after
a thorough Investigation of the subject,
he does not find any disposition to enter
the strip before it is formally and legally
opened to settlement, and this opinion,
he says, is shared by Colonel Wade, who
is in command of all the troops on the
outlet, and Captain Forebush and Super
intendent Bishop, who are in command
at Chilocco and Caldwell respectively.

A HORRIBLE DISCOVERY.
The Bodies of Five Persons Floating

The Bodies of Five Persons Floating
Down the Missouri in a Box.
ST. JOSEPH, No., March 22.-Comp-
ton Mccoy, a farmer residing a few
miles south of this city on the Missouri
river banks, was duck hunting on a
sand bar Tuesday afternoon, when he
discovered large dry goods box float
ing with the current. He hauled the
box to the shore and, breaking it open,
was nearly Uverpowered by a terrible
stencil which arose from the box.
An investigation disclosed that the
box was filled with dead bodies in an
advanced stage of decomposition, the
remains being so badly decomposed that
Identification was impossible. Coroner
Reynolds made an investigation and
found the remains were those of four
men and one woman and appearances
indicate they have been murdered, the
remains placed in the box and then set
adrift. The community is in terrible
terrible state of excitement.
1t is supposed the remains are those
of family of emigrants who disap-
peared in a mysterious manner from
Rulo, 10 miles north of this city, last
fall.

Hawaiians Believe Eslount's Mission Will
Result in Annexation.
WASHINGTON, March -. - Messrs.
Castle and Thurston of the Hawaiian
annexation commission and Mr.. Paul
Neumann, the attorney for Queen Lii
oukalani, have left Washington. Mr..
Castle is en- route home, intending to
sail from San Francisco for Honolulu on
the 31st. The others will return to
Washington and await the outcome of
Mr.. Blount's visit to the Hawaiian
islands.
Since the departure of Mr.. Blount a
feeling of confidence has controlled the
Hawaiians, who say they have no doubt
that the ultimate result will be the an
nexation of the island. For this they
say they can afford to wait.
AS to the means of transporting Mr..
Blount from San Francisco to Honolulu,
the visitors, who are familiar with all
the conditions, state that the Pacific
Mail steamer Rio Janelro, which sails
from San Francisco for China on the
2Sd inst, will doubtless touch at Homo
lulu, if desired, although it is not her
regular route, and will land Mr.. Blount
several days in advance of the time
within which the revenue cutter Rush
could make the trip, even if it were to
start at the moment of Mr.. Blount's
earliest possible arrival at San Fran

70 loaded coal cars, and delaying all
traffic for four hours. A fireman on
one of the engines was buried under the

GETTING READY TO ACr.
9he United States Senate in shape {,
Transact Business.


Transact Business.
WAsHIN'4ToN, March 20.-There Is
some reason to expect that the senate
will enter in earnest, this week, upon
the business for which it wss called to-
gether. So far, not a single nomination
has been acted upon, except the cabinet
appointments. Excluding half dozen
army and navy promotions, there are
now sixteen presidential nominations
which have not yet been passed upon,
even in committee. 1t is, however, the
intention of the committee having
charge of these nominations, to get to-
gether early in the week. and it is prob
able that within few days there will
be some material in hand upon which
the senate may act in executive session.
Saving the possibility of a contest over
an attempt to reorganize the force of
employees, the open sessions of the senate,
during the week, do not promise to be
frequent, long or interesting, as it is
hardly to be expected that the commit
tee on privileges and elections will be able
to report upon the senatorial appoint
ment cases, which are sure to prove a
subject of discussion, within that time.

THEY wANr BETTER PAY.
Engineers, Conductors and Trainmen Ask
For an Increase in Wages.


For an Increase ia Wages.
CHICAGO, March IS. Another impor-
taut session of the General Managers
association has been held for the pur-
pose of considering the demands of the
locomotive engineers of the Santa Fe
and those of the conductors and train
men of the Grand Trunk, for an in
crease of pay. When these were made to
the officials of the roads concerned, they
were at once referred to the General
Managers association, the agreement
being that common action is to be taken
on all such matters. The demands of
the Santa Fe engineers and the Grand
Trunk conductors and trainmen for an
increase of wages were acted upon by a
special committee of the General Man
ayers association, but their decision will
not be announced until the next meet
ing of the association, probably some
time next week. Railroad officials as
sert they have no fear Of a strike, al
though there is little doubt that the de-
cision will be against the men.

BREMEN, March Intelligence has
been received showing beyond doubt
that the freight steamer Naronic is lost.
The British steamer Coventry. from
Fernandina, arrived here this morning.
She reports that on the morning of
March she passed lifeboat bearing
the name Naronic. The boat was
floating keel upward. During the
afternoon of the same day another life
boat of the Naronic was passed. The
drifting boats were south by west of
Sable island on the banks of Newfound-
land. There is chance that the oc-
cupants Of the boats were picked up by
passing vessel.
LIVERPOOL, March 2O.-A vessel
which passed Deal today signaled that
she had II shlpwrecked people on board
and the White Star officials think there
is strong probability that they are part
of the Naronic's crew.

TOPEKA, March 22.-The Doodle inves-

every hour. If the testimony thus far
given is true, both Republicans and
Populists made boodling business du-
ring the past winter. Jim Legate, who
left the Republican party last fall and
went to the Populists for consideration
of 81 900, testified that he got 81, 800 from
Peter Kline, a gambler in Kansas City,
Kan, with which to buy eight Repub-
ican members of the legislature, who
took place before the legislature met
and would have prevented the Republi-
cans from organizing the house had the
scheme gone through.

TOLEDO, o., March 22.-The examina-
ton of the eight men charged with
having contemporary disregarded the
mandates of United States Judge
Kicks, issued at Cleveland recently,
commenced here in the federal building.
Five witnesses were called, including
Master of Motive Power Stevens and
Foreman Boyden, of the Lake Shore
railroad. Boyden deposed just what
the defense intended to show: That
Judge Kicks order had not been read
to the defendants until after they had
resigned their positions, on refusing to
handle Ann Arbor freight.
