Mr.. CHAUNcEY DEPEw pertinently OBJ
serves,lf woman can be administrative

without being unsexed, he don't see
why it will unsex her to have a voice
in making laws about property and
children. Women have been Gun
sexed" ever since he can remember
and they seem to be pretty good yet.
1t IS always the cry whenever there is
any broadening of woman's oppor-
tunities and responsibilities, "She will
be unsexed But the fears of the con
servatlves have never yet been realized.
Women are engaged In every one of
the occupations which it was once
maintained would render them utterly
unwcmanly, and they are women still.
Mr.. Depew neatly disposed of the
argument beloved of anti suffragists)
that family discussions might divide
household against itself. The women
have school suffrage in Massachusetts,
and wives haven't cease to speak to
then husbands there. Brothers and
sisters still live together in peace, and
lovers are not spurned by their sweet
hearts, Even in Wyoming, where
they have full suffrage, the family
doesn't seem to have suffered. If
women can stand what they stand now
and yet live in household harmony,
they won't fight about the ballot.
Why there was woman in here the

family, and asked her how she happened
to be doing what she was doing. Oh.
she answered because married man

women doing that sort of thing. If
they can keep themselves from family
discussions now they will be able to
keep from qarrelling over politics.
What difference will it make to have
woman the power on the throne
instead of behind itl Not bit.

more. 1t was expected that these
two Independents could be confirmed
at the same time the four regular
Democrats, who had been selected for
the other offices with Mr.. Germans
consent, would be acted upon. There
was no little surprise therefore, when
the news came some Gays ago that the
regulars had been confirmed and the
Independents were beng held up.
MI. German. however. row makes no
secret Of his position. He had promised
Mr.. Rasin, wLo had made a deal with
the Independents so as to stave fl
opposition at the next election, not to
fight the nominations, but he will not
use any effort to get them out OF
committee as he did in the case of the
four regulars. Mr.. Rasin believes that
both nominations will be ultimately
confirmed. One of his intimate
friends puts it in this way:
Mr.. German understands the stu
alton in which the local party organiz-
alton is placed. OF course he doesn't
like Warfeld and Marbury ; neither do
we, but in politics party leader has
to swallow many a bitter dose and
still try and look pleasant.
At the same time the Independents
are on the ragged edge Nor will
they be treasured until the nominations
have been confirmed. They acknowl-
edge that German can beat them, but
threaten all sorts of trouble If he does.
Since the above was put in type, Mr..
Warfield has been confirmed as post
master of Baltimore.

NOTWITHSTANDING the Chronic
denunceation of Trusts by the Demo
cratic Party these same Trusts says
Senator Hansbrough which simply had
their fingers in the first edition, have
put their arms up to the shoulder
blades into this fourth edition of the
tariff reform bill. And he continued,
eve are told that there may be another
edition. Raw wool | notice, IS still on
the free list. Mr.. Havemeyer, the head
of the sugar trust, has been gwen about
half cent per pound advantage over
the foreign refiner, while the humble
sheep raisers on American farms are
left to compete on an equality with
the Australian wool raiser. Along
with this wicked discrimination against
one class of producers the rates upon
manufactures of wool are advanced.

Tired, Weak, Nervous.

Means impure blood, and overwork or
too much strain en- braiu and body. The
only way TO cure is to feed the nerves on
pure blood. Thousands. of people certify
that the best blood purifier, the best nerve
tonic and strength builder is Hoods Sarss
parills. What it has done for others it will
also do for you-Hood's cures.
Nervousness, loss of sleep, loss of appe-
tite and general debility all disappear when
Hoods Sarsaparlia is persistently taken,
and strong nerves, sweet sleep, strong body :,
sharp appetite, and in a word. health, and
happiness follow the use of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla.
The strong points about Hoods Sarsa-
parills are that they are permanent, because
they start from the solid foundation of puri

FARM LABOR IN DEMAND.

The agent OF the Labor Bureau at
the Barge Office, New York, says /:
We could place fifty farmers a day if
we had them, and as fast as we satisfied
the demand it would grow again.
Hardly per cent of the gross total of
people we get here are farmers, and
that is about the only business which
does not seem to be affected by the
hard times.
Farmers do not want Italians or
Slovaks, because they are not SO easy
to teach the language, and they do
not know how to farm in the American
fashion and seem unable to pick it IN
