It's Sale Negotiated by Senator wolcott
and Brother.
DENVER, April 8. "A dispatch from
New York alleges that Henry Wolcott
and his brother, Senator Wolcott OF
Denver, have sold the Mercur mine. In
Utah. to New York capitalists for ST.
100000. The report lacks verifcation,
however.
SALT LAKE, April 6.-Some time last
fall Senator Wolcott and his brother OF
Denver obtained an option on the Mer.
cur mine of Utah until April 1st at a
valuation OF s760,000. They worked
the mine for a time and failed
to make payment. Mr.. Dsrn, president
of the Mercur company, tonight says
the mine is Withdrawn from the mar
ket, and that the Colorado people who
held the option have no authority to
negotiate the sale OF the property. The
operation of the plant will be placed on
o more extensive scale, and the 5O-ton
per day capacity will increased to 200
tons per day.

NATHANIEL SPRINGER DERRY.

In the death Of Ex-Governor Nathaniel
Springer Berry of New Hampshire there
passed away one of the last and also
one of the best representatives of that
rugged type of New Englanders who
figured so conspicuously in the affairs
OF the nation fifty years ago, and who
did so much to shape its destinies. Like
most of New England children at the
time of his birth, which was almost a
century ago, there was no silver spoon
in his mouth. though he had the advant-
age of a splendid ancestry. self-reliant
and courageous. His grandfather was a
captain of infantry during the revolution;
his father was a ship builder of Bath, Me.
But he was scarcely six years old when
his parents died and he was left alone in
the world. The apprenticeship, so much
in vogue then. naturally followed. and he
became by trade a tanner and currier.
Naturally his opportunities for securing
an education were very much limited.
but to the boys of that day an education,
simply because it did not come easy,
seemed more desirable. and he got it
after he was man grown. During a
business career Of thirty-hve years Mr.
Berry made reputation for himself as
a business man and as a student Of pub

THE SENATE AND THE TARIFF.

AS the political Paul Revere Senator
Hill is not making much Roadway. He
is spreading his warnings with consider
able zeal. but the democratic press is
disposed TO throw stones at him.-Wash-
ingtOn Post QndD.
There is no probability Of any Of the
United States senators reading any other
senators out of the democratic party.
It is not apparent just now that there
is enough of the democratic party in the
senate TO read anybody out.-LOuisville
COurier-Journal (dem).
President Cleveland's latest epistle in
dicates that he is getting out OF pa
thence with some Of the distinguished
democrats In his party, and IT can
hardly be said that he is TO be blamed
for his feelings. or for giving vent 10
them.-BostOn Herald Qnd).
The announcement that the closing
speeches of Senators AldTich and VOor-
hees would be printed in full on a Ger
tain day would not excite a ripple OF
excitement. The reason is that the pub
lie knows that the subject has been fully
discussed, and that no speech that has
been or will be made will change a vote
in the senate or an opinion outside OF
the senate. If the bill were voted on
tomorrow the vote would be the same
as it will be after the general debate and
the debate by paragraphs. To go on
with the speech-making is a dreary
waste Of time. What the country is
waiting for, and waiting for with good
deal Of Impotence, is a vote.-N. Y.
World (dem.).
The cool reception Senator Morgan
met in Alabama is lesson for other
democrats. If senators could realize the
thorough contempt and anger that Is
now animating the great mass Of the
democracy of the union because of the
betrayal OF trust by the senate in carry
ing out the pledges Of the democratic
party most Of them would hunt conven-
lent holes and pull the holes IN after
them. That IS not a very elegant
phrase. but we don't know words that
express more thoroughly the disgust Of
the people. Hundreds Of thousands Of
converts have been made the last six
months in favor Of eliminating the SEN
ate from our system Of government. The
people are well nigh unanimous in favor
of electing senators by the popular vote.
-Pittsburg Post (dem).
Is there a reasonable prospect that the
republicans will repeal the income tax
if they have the power in the next con-
gress? Decidedly not, we think. Many
of them are denouncing II now as piece
of democratic iniquity, but there are
from twelve to fifteen republican sena-
tors who will vote for it at present. In
his furious arraignment in the current
Forum of the democrats for their many
sins Senator Cullom very deftly avoids
mentioning the income tax. he has a
campaign on for reelection just now, and
it would never do 10 oHend limos
voters who would like TO see the rich
ShvIocks of the East hit hard. This is
svmptomatic Of what we may expect II

It will.-N Y. Post Qnd9.

past six months greater evidence of in
tention to abandon their former position
than at any time within twenty years
past. In this connection we would call
attention to letter of the Hon. George
w. Cooper, printed elsewhere in this
issue. in which he states that in the opin-
ion of the British minister TO this coun-
try the movement of sentiment in En-
gland toward bimetallism almost pre-
sents the appearance of a revolution"
We have several times said that Grover
Cleveland would yet prove a better
friend to silver than any of the al
legged Silver men," We believe that his
policy will speedily result in the estab-
lishment of universal bimetallism.

STREET PICKINGs.

A pretty girl got on a street car yester-
day and when the conductor came to her
for fare she handed him what she
thought was a folded transfer tick
ct which she took out Of her glove.
He rung the register mechanically, and
when he got on the platform looked at the
check Then he blushed and looked at the
girl. but she was looking out of the win
dow He read the paper again and forgot
to let three old women off the car, he was
so excited The pretty girl mOtioned at
him to stop the car and he took off his
cap with a stunning bow as sha left the
car She seemed surprised, but made no
remark When she got home she took out
her folded car ticket from her glove and
looked at il in amazement. Then she
blushed too This is what she had given
the conductor. bit of newspaper bearing
these verses of Frank L. Stanton's:
For you Loves own dear land
OF roses fair and free;
And if you will no hand
To give a rose to me.
For you Loves dearest bliss
In all the years to be,
And If you will-nc kiss
OF any love for me.
She has the habit of carrying bits Of sem
timental poetry in her glove; but no wonder
the conductor was astonshed at receiving
so marked a declaration She now takes
another car line and he looks in vain for
her.
Two things have gone completely out OF
styie-the use of scents on the handkerchief
and kissing one on the mouth. If one
loves the odor of violets, orris root or any
particular scent, it must be used in sachet
bags. put where clothing is packed, but
never sprinkled upon the handkerchief. As
to kissing, watch any two women kiss each
other nowadays and one Will notice that
they kiss upon the cheek or forehead, but
never on the mouth. There is every rea-
son why they do not kiss upon the mouth.
Firstly, nearly everyone has made study
of hygiene and knows that It is not always
healthy to kiss the mouth. This should be
strictly enforced in regard to babies. 1t

lie affairs. He dabbled in politics some,
but never in machine politics. He was in
the best sense of the term a Christian
statesman. He carried his religion into
his business and into his politics. and
was one of those who honestly felt that
the truer a nation was to its God the
truer it was to its people. Frequently,
up to the year 1910, he represented his
town in one or the other branch of
the state legislature. In 1910 Mr.. Berry
was delegate to the democratic ma
tional convention at Baltimore. He had
imbibed the New England prejudice
against slavery and the action of that
convention drove him from his party,
which he had served faithfully and well
for twenty-five years. Returning to
New England he became foremost
in the organization of the free soil
party. and was its first candi-
date for governor. receiving enough
votes to prevent an election by the peo-
pie. At four succeeding conventions he
was nominated and when the party
merged into the republican party in the
spring of 1861 he was elected governor
by the latter party and reelected in
1853. During the war he was one of the
stanchest supporters Of Abraham Lin
coin and never for a moment would
listen to any talk Of compromise or con-
cession. He had come to the point where
he regarded slavery as an institution
which must be crushed out at any cost
and had little patience with even the
mild conservatism of even men like
President Lincoln himself
Since the war Mr. Berry had never
failed to take an active part in the
politics Of his state, though he viewed
with dismay the growing tendency of the
corrupt practices of political machines.
There was probably not a time in his
whole career when he would not have
lost fortune and position and influence
rather than do a dishonorable act or
have one performed in his behalf. His
life was one of perfect uprightness. In
his personal habits he was as clean as
in his political life. He had none of the
petty vices with which most men are
afflicted and to this he was wont to at
tribute his hale and hearty old age.
Years after he had passed the ninety
mark he was as sturdy and rugged as
most men at fifty, and to his plain and
simple life. with his easy conscience, was
attributed his success in keeping off the
scars Of hard work.
AS previously stated. Governor Berry
was one Of the best representatives of
that rugged New England type which
has given so much of character to the
people Of the United States. 1t is sad
to reflect, though the reflection is in
evitable, that this type is rapidly pass
ing away. 1t was type built of Drawn
and sinew and reared on hard work
1t learned comparatively little from
books. but much from experience 1t
took the ten commandments as its guide
in all things and it lived without re-
proach and with honor to itself, to its
country and to its God.
