A COUNTY OFFICIAL OF COLFAx,
WASHINGTON, ON THE CRITICAL
SITUATION.
The PENN Press" has received from an
Ohio silver man who writes commenting it's
course in the cause of the people, a private
letter written by Henry W. Garfield, for
merly of this state, now prosecuting attor-
ney of Whitman county, Washington, from
which the following extracts are taken:
I'm this part Of the world we feel very
strongly that the campaign of '96 is the
critical one of the last generation. I am
firmly of the belief that the issues of 1860
were not as great in Importance and effect
on our country as will be the campaign Of
1896, and feeling so l must get ready to
make the hardest fight in my power for the
right "as God gives us to see the right" l
am very sorry and much discouraged from
my view of the situation, as it seems to me
that the people Of this country are once
more going to set party love above patriot
ism. Not that they will intentionally do
so, but under the influence of party whip
and party prejudice, they, like Paul when
he prosecuted the Christians, will think
wake up only when our beloved land is en-
thralled to a system that will surely make
us all slaves for all time to come, and cause
a fearful and bloody revolution which will
result in none knows what. Have you ever
ready the history of the ENGLISH in their
relations to Egypt? 1t is appalling to think
of such atrocities, nor can we claim that we
are perforce beyond coming to the same sit
uation, for Egypt was once the center of
the civilization of the world. l am sorry
that the craze for robbing the public
reached your old county, but yet your
county is in as good shape or better to
people there ought, and doubtless will, bear
all with fortitude. Our dear legislature in

conclusion that we must go to a single sill
yer using country, as that will simply make
the silver owner richer and will not in
crease the volume of money. We must use
both gold and silver as money, and then we
must have more money than that. Do you
remember that years age you called my at
tention to a standing debt, that it was
never calculated to pay, and do you not see
the decision written in every act of the
president and congress that we shall have
such a debt by means of the single stand
ard and gold bonds? Suppose that on a
straddle platform a man that the gold men
can control, and a safe and sound money

He did not need them any more than a

beauties and met his fancy. He went

BLAND AND A NEW PARTY.

An Ex- Democrat OF Missouri writes
an intensely interesting view of the
present Transformation Of. the Demo
cratic party and principles from the
days of jefferson and Jackson and
Benton in the June Arena. 1t is an
article that will be widely read in the
West and South and Southwest. The
writer knows the political history of
American parties down to date, and
has all the facts at his fingers ends.
He believes that the Democracy has
tapered off to the vanishing point and
can never again make an issue in
American politics. It's place must be
taken by a new Liberal party inspired
by new ideas and new blood.

The gold-bugs in New York openly
boast of sending prepared editorials
to newspapers which accept them in
stereotype or plate form. The So
called Reform club, of which we have
spoken before, supported by the banks,
is pushing the misleading work. The
New York Herald says that "a large
n~umberhave signified their willingness
to use this matter, and together with
the supplements that are being sent
out, fully a thousand newspapers
scattered through the country will
shortly be engaged in disseminating
sound money articles on all aspects of
the money crusade" Populists should
meet this with an increased circula-
ton of reform litera ture.-Iowa

THE BICYCLE THE MODERN Pc.

A bicycle is better than a horse to
ninety-nine men and women out of a
hundred, because it costs almost moth

the same number of days or weeks. In
touring with a bicycle I can make fifty

Tie Ohio Law.

The Ohio law granting school suffrage
to women has been declared constitu-
tional by the circuit court of Columbus.
The Toledo Blade says:
1t is significant that the circuit court
decision was written by Judge Shauck,
who has since become a supreme judge
and will be one of the six judges to pass
upon the question when it comes before
that tribunal. Judge Shauck holds that
the legislature has full power over the
whole subject of organizing and regulat-
ing the schools of the state and cites
decisions to prove this. The point that
women are not qualified electors under
the constitution is held not to interfere
with their right to vote on school mat.
ters, IS the Offices to be filled in such
elections are unknown to the constitu.
ton. It now looks very much as if the
women will have clear legal sailing un.

MRS. CHARLOTTE EMERSON BROWN
A Woman of High Character Whose Death
Il Deeply Deplored.

Il Deeply Deplored.
A pang Of sincerest sorrow has enter.
ed many hearts at the announcement of
the death at Orange, on Feb. 5, Of Mrs.
Charlotte Emerson Brown. Every won.
an who knew her knows that in her per-
son existed n of the best friends to
her sex that ever lived. Mrs. Brown
was emphatically a woman's woman
She loved her kind, and she lived to
elevate and make them happy. She
knew not the meaning of envy or jeal-
ousy. She exalted the home. Her ideals
of womanly life We're the stanch old
New England ones, which make per.
sonal religion and the domestic virtues
the foundation Of character. On these
she herself had reared a remarkable in.
tellectual development, and she desired
all women to do the same.
The ordinary statistics of Mrs.
Browns life have often been given. She
was the daughter of the Rev. Professor
Joseph Emerson Of Andover, was born
in 1888, and was graduated in her early
womanhood from the we'll known Alb.
bott academy of Andover. She had been
a teacher Of many different branches and
had travelled extensively, when in 1880
she married the Rev. Mr.. Brown of Or.
ange.
Mrs. Brown believed d~evoutly in the
woman's club movement, and to her eff.
forts, as much perhaps as to any one
woman, the success of the great Fedora
ton Of Woman's Clubs is due. After a
thorough training in club work in the
large'and fourishing Orange club, she
was able to accept the presidency of the
federation with a full knowledge of it's
responsibilities and was exactly fitted
to give to the organization the prestige
and leadership which were necessary.
The mere presence Of Mrs. Brown in
a meeting gave it dignity and charm.
Her fine face, on which love and char
ity were beautifully expressed, shed a
spirit of fraternity all about her. No
n who saw her at the great federation
meeting at Philadelphia will ever for
get her.
Mrs. Brown possessed a fund of learn
ing which her modesty in society and
her desire for bringing out the good
points OF others to the neglect of her
w allowed few, except her intimate
friends, to suspect. She was familiar
with seven languages, understood art
and music thoroughly and could discuss
history, literature, philosophy, science
and theology with great intelligence.
Few men or women have possessed in so
high a degree the New England pas
sion to know.
The labor which she did for women
undoubtedly shortened her life. Few
know how she worked to establish the
cause SO dear to her. Others sometimes
doubted whether it would prove of much
benefit to women She never did, and
no monument will more honor her than
that her friends and followers shall have
her faith and zeal. New York Times.

and all corners where the procession, which
viii be the largest ever seen in Oakland, is
to pass, will be profusely decorated.
The question of securing a goddess of
liberty to preside over the celebration has
not yet been settled and has caused a split
in the ranks Of the committee appointed to
select one. 1t was at first proposed to
leave the matter entirely to the committee,
but on thinking the matter over the men,
bers decided not to leave themselves open
TO charges of favoritism but to submit the
selection to popular vote.
The latest plan is to have the names of
those who are to be voted for submitted to
the committee, which will be authorized to
bar any names which might be objection
able TO the better element of the contest
ants.
Nevertheless the thought of balloting on
any terms has led, w. Y. Whether, one of
the hardest workers on the committee, to
decide to resign. He does not believe that
it is proper to aid and abet competition
in which he would not allow his own
daughter to take part, and has given the
committee notice that they must get along
without him.
The committee has been in consultation
with a number Of Oakland ladies whom
they desire to have in the competition, but
thus far without marked success in secur-
ing candidates. In case balloting is de-
cided upon It will begin tomorrow.
