THE WOMAN sUFFRAGIsTs.

They Intend TO Conduct Their Cam
paign in Real Earnest.
The delegates are soon to be brought
face to face with the proposition of
woman suffrage Already they have
been deluged with letters threatening
all sorts of vengeance If they dare to
rebel. Not satisfied with this, how
ever, the leaders of the woman SUI
frage movement are gathering with the
Intention of making a determined as
Sault against the 'hOrrid'f prejuGices
Of men. The committee on rules has
yielded up all the outpests, by extend
ing the privileges OF the floor to
ladies" In respect of men the rules
are stringent against any lobbying. No
representative OF any corporation, no
lobbyist of any kind is to be allowed
to go on the floor during sessions.
Even the newspaper men are mu1zled.
They are on probation. If he ever
SO much as dare to go before a COM
mittee in favor of any proposition he
is to be bodily and (. unceremoniously
fred. But all the bars which have been
put up in front of men are to be let
down in the case Of women. Those
who are to lobby for equal rights"
will enjoy the anomalous privilege"
over the male sex while doing so. Be
that as 1t may it is now too late for
the convention to fnterpose barriers,
even were it disposed to do SO. The
leaders have announced their determi-
nation to make converts and they in
tend to do 50. Every man who is an
opponent of equal suffrage, or who is
on the fence, will be marked as pro-
per subject for labor and the leaders
will keep after him until he coEclu-
siYely shows there is no hope, or, what
is perhaps, more likely, gives in to the
gentler sex. In the face Of this de-
termination to labor only with those
who are in opposition, there is an eX-
the more gallant members to come out
against suffrage in order to be among
the fortunate ones who are marked for
conversion.
In fact the lobby, if such term may
be used in that connection, viii be a
strong one. The leading women of the
territory, who are thoroughly up on
public questions and have the best OF
arguments in their favor intend that
as strong a case as possible shall be
made. They are determined to place
the issue right to the front. They want
no compromise measures. They do not
care to accept any separate suffrage
proposition which may be defeated out
side the constitution itself They de-
sire that their rights shall be fixed
right in the body of the instrument
and have them rise or fall with it.
They have been energetic 50 far, but
the real work will begin after the ter
ritorial meeting Of suffragists on Mon
day, when delegates from each county
will be present The petition from the
Weber county committee, presented by
Evans yesterday, is but the forerunner
Of one from each county and finally
one larger from the territorial organi-

Washington, March 14-coIis p,
Huntington had an interview with the
secretary Of the interior today regard

IoddS regarding the report that the
secretary intends to issue an order
directing that no more patents for land

companies. Huntington represented

all been earned in time. and in many
case they had been transferred to per-
sons VINO had occupied them from ten
10 twenty years. He also said the COM
pan1eS were not seeking patents in
instances where the road had not dis
posed of the lands as they became

issued The states and counties in
which the lands were situated were
more interested in. securing patents.
as they became entitled TO taxes as
soon as the patents had BEN passed.
Further than this, the companies DE-
sired to dispose Of the lands to secure
money TO meet the payments now
about due. Huntington thought ie
would hinder the company in securing
money on lands. if such order had been
issued and represented that nothing
overt ought to be done by the govern
nent to prevent the company from
raising funds Huntington, however,
did not consider this of so much i'm
portance as he did the question of set
Element for the Pacific roads debt. and
he believed the recommendations made
by the secretary of the interior
would have great weight in
the next Congress. He insisted that
before 1897 the government must act
or 1t would lose heavily. Hul tington
expressed a hope that the report Of
the secretary and commissioner of
railroads would elaborate on the sub
Ject of the Indebtedness, and advise a
Just and equitable plan of settlement.

that any subsequent mortgage was

Judicial property which the solicitor OF
Dillon. trustee, had no right to dis
regard. required that when the fore.
closure suit was brought it be cor1s
menced in the Eight circuit, which
had primary jurisdiction. He said in
these proceedings the counsel for COM
plainant had referred, time and again,
by innuendo rather than by plain
speaking, to errors made in the orders
made by the federal courts from the
beginning of the Ames suit down to
date. He said he should never stand
and criticise the actions of the federal
courts of this country. He said that in
the Dillon case. the court OF Oregon
and the court of Idaho conceded by
their orders that the Wyoming court
was Of primary Jurisdiction. and con-
coded to it the right to primarily make
any order in that cage
He paid his respects to Mr.. Storey's

of its receiver, but for the appointment
of a proper court receiver and said

word last night from headquarters
that the cut rate of $3.50 on second

this is stated to be that the Santa Fe
people have not received the desired
assurance from certain other lines
that rates will be maintained and no
deals made for cutting If this assur-
ance is forthcoming by the nth. the

quite likely that the date will be still
