MRS WILLIAM ToD HELMUTH, who
has been elected president Of Sorosis,
in New York, is hardly the woman to
please the advanced" element, for she
distinctly disavows any belief in the
general superiority of one sex to the
other and owes great deal of her in
fuence, her knowledge and her liberal
ity to her gifted husband, who has
made her his confidante, his assistant
and his other half on all occasions.
When her election was announced she
had to be kissed by all the members,
and when it was over she is said to
have remarked, in a sly tone: Well.
men have some advantages over us yet !"

MAssILLoN, O., March 19.-Commau-
der Coxey and Lieut.. Browne were in
town Saturday. They had spoken the
night before at Trotter's Hill, q min
ing camp which is now sorely racked
by strike. Five hundred miners were
at the meeting. With scarcely an ex-
ception the men indorsed the common
veal march to Washington and many
of them assu,rd the speakers that they
would accompany the expedition.
There is grave apprehension that the
army will meet with trouble in Penn
syivania. The column will move
through one OF the most depressed in
dustrial districts In the state, and it is
firmly believed that the army
will be joined by thousands of
idle men before it reaches Pitts
burgh. The mayor OF Beaver
Falls, town through which the
army is scheduled to pass, has publicly
declared that he will stop the column
the instant it swings into his territory.
He argues that the army will be moth
ing more nor less than band of vaga-
bonds, without discipline or con-
science. To bring such an army
into Beaver Falls, he says, would
be the crowning misfortune of a
town which has been paralyzed
for year or more by industrial
conflicts. On the other hand the vii
lage of Economy, a rich communistic
community, through which the army is
to pass after leaving Beaver Falls, has
offered to feed and shelter the COM
monwealers for day. The offer
comes from one of the wealthiest men
of the town and is indorsed by a score
OF citizens.
It is the belief Of the men who look
upon the pilgrimage in conservative
way that the army will be so unwieldy
after it enters Pennsylvania thatit will
slip away from the control of Comman-
der Coxey and become noisy, pillag-
ing mob, preying upon the hencoops and
smokehouses of farmers and inviting
and eventually receiving stern recep-
ton from the troops of the state.
Numerous applications have been re-
eeived from enthusiastic women who
wish to Join the common veal. Gen.
Coxey has decided that his army must
not entangle itself with women. IF
If were an ordinary military cam
paign." he says, "we might use our
women sympathizers as nurses, but we
expect no bloodshed, and under such
circumstances nurse would be an ex-
penslve luxury"
Lowell Z. Marvin, of Falmouth, KY,
proposes to join the army with 200
men, and G. O'Brien, of Lagro, Ind,
promises to be present with 600 of the
unemployed.
Saturday several letters reached
Coxey and Browne from various parts
Of Pennyslvania saying that Gov. Patti
aon has ordered Sheriff John Moon, OF
Green county, to meet the army on the
state line and read the riot act. The
general at once wired the governor and
received the following reply, which he
regards as highly noncommittal:
''The sheriff Of Green county knows his duty
and I have no doubt will fully perform every
requirement OF the law"

Arrangements for the manufacture of
boots and shoes at the Saltwater prison
are progressing favorably, and the new
Industry, which it is calculated will
give employment to the idle inmates,
will probably be inaugurated some time
the latter part of April. At no time in
the history of the prison has the popu-
lation been so large as at the present

adopt some new plan which it is calcu-
lated will provide work for those who

this could be, we could sweep

that the Democratic party has not

claims that "there is but one issu

"turn the traitors out" The Popu

Still, we feel somewhat treasured

will its definition be generally &C.
copied
The generally ccepted notion
concerning treason is that it consists
in making war on legally-constitut-
ed authority, or in giving aid and
comfort to an enemy. Populists
have never made war, nor refused
to obey the laws of state or nation,
and that is more than can be said
of many Republicans who have held
office, and who are now seeking
office and it can be said, Of the
Republican party more than any
other party, that it has built up, and
sustains, the most insidious Of all
traitors-the money-bag anarchists.
Our system of government has
been completely undermined under
Republican rule. Republican rule
in Kansas is no mean part OF the
conspiracy to ruin the masses, and
if there is treason, we are forced to
Law that treason at the doors of the
corrupt Republican politicians.
