sought in vain. At the age of "a she
went abroad to procure what she was
denied at home, and studied for seven
years in France, Germany and Italy
The general arts and educational meth
DDS abroad particularly claimed her
attention, and ON her return to America
she resumed teaching in New York.
About this time she was married to
John B. Dickinson, New Yorker bank
er, and for time she devoted great
deal of her energy and money to philan
thropic work. Then her husband died,
his wealth was swept away. and she re-
newed her early educational and liter
airy activity. Her ability as teacher
won for her warm welcome in Denver,
and for time she filed the endowed
chair of English literature at the uni
versity in Denver. When the rarefled
air Of Denver compelled her to vacate
her post, she was made emeritus pro-
fessor, and the chair she had occupied
was given her name
She has been secretary of the wom-
ans branch of the American Bible soci-
ETY. and national superintendent of the
department of higher education in the
Woman Christian Temperance union,
and for two years she was president of
the National Woman's Indian associa-
tion. When the Kings Daughters was
started in 1886, she was one of the ten
original founders of the organization,
and she is now general secretary of the

Another year has passed into
eternity 4! To 1894, farewell
You have been a year of ruin,
disaster, starvation-a year in
which unjust and robbery legis-
lation has brought the many
people of America to want and
restitution in a land of plenty
and where prosperity should be
in every household; a year of
robbery, marching armies of the
poor, strikes, bribery, foods,
fire, wrecks, gold bond issue,
chattle white slavery; a year of
idleness, paralyzed business in
dustries, blasted hopes; a year
of closed quartz mills, shelters,
mines, factories, and the Lord
only knows what else. 1894 you
have been a dandy" You de-
stroyed by fire the best portion
of our once beautiful little noun
tain city; and by low prices of
our industries have closed our
mines and made all our property
almost worthless. You have
called from us, more than ever
before in one year, our old and
esteemed pioneers. Avaunt
thou grim visage of 1894.
To 1895-welcome /! You are
but an infant, but start off with
little hope-silver below go cents
per ounce. We hope for your
welfare, but you have a gloomy
voyage before you. One fact is
assured, and that is this, thatyou
will have to drill if you break
the record of the year just pass
ed. May your pathway be
strewn with prosperity to all.

Debs' Manly Words.

Eugene V. Debs who is now
serving a term in prison for
upholding the laboring men at
the Pullman strike last summer,
made the following speech on
Christmas Day just passed:
There ire numerous holiday
anniversaries, days set apart by
statute and by church DEGREES, to
keep fresh and green in the mem
cries of men and women, great
men, O. great events, having q
more or less direct influence up
on the welfare of mankind. OF
them all, it is doubtless true,
that Christmas, accepted as the
natal day of Jesus Christ, is the
most widely celebrated, because
more than any other holiday, the
home is beautified and blessed
by the innocent mirth and glad
ness of children. Christmas is
pre-eminenqly the home holiday
of all Observation-Disclosures at
one time in New England colon
les, to celebrate Christmas was q
H
misdemeanor. AS late as 1859
the Central Court of Massachu-
setts enacted that anybody who
is found observing by abstinence
from labor, fasting, or any other
way, any such day as Christmas,
shall pay for such offense, five
shillings."
Those old puritans delighted
in a religion that shrouded the
home and childhood in gloom
while the spirit of Christmas
was to permeate society with
charity, sympathy, fraternity
and joy-and the song went
round:
At Christmastide, the open hand,
Scatters its bounty DER sea and land;
And none are left to grieve alone,
For love is heaven, and claims its own.
My boyhood recollections of
Christmas holidays redolent of
happy expectations from the
generosity of old Santa Claus,
who still fingers in my memory
as an Abou Ben Adhem, whose
race, l fondly hope, will be per-
petuated for the de~lectation of
childhood-the only regret be-
ing that in after years these de-

Cleveland it is said will call an
extra session of congress i'm
mediately after the present ses-
sion adjourns, that is, if they
do not pass the Bankers or Carl
isle fiat money bill. Wall Street
has so ordained it, and Grover is
but a catspaw for them, and will
obey, and he will, by his bull
doing endeavor to bring the
nation to this dreadful crisis.
Cleveland will go out of the
chair rich, but a traitor to his
people. Two years more of

1t is said that Lieutenant Gov
ernor-elect Mills, of Idaho, is not
old enough by nearly two years
to be eligible to the Office to
which he has been chosen. The
constitution of Idaho requires
the Governor and Lieutenant
Governor to be 30 years of age
each. Mr.. Mills is a Republican,
and for that reason we do not
expect that anything will be
said, but had he been a Populist
or Democrat, he would be fired"
out so lively that you could play
checkers on his coat tail.

1t was continually the howl of
the two old parties during the
last campaign that the Populist
party was for fat money. How
about the Carlisle currency bill
now before congress, which is
opposed by the Populists ? Is
it not a fiat money bill ?

WASHINGTON LETTER.

plan was defeated to force the
currency bill through the House
before the holiday adjournment,
has largely increased the numb
err of those who doubt the pass
age of any currency bill at this
session. The abandonment OF the
original bill and the reporting OF
q substitute was a confession OF
weakness that has also strength
ened the opposition. In addltl-
on to the Republicans and Popu-
lists the bill has many Democratic
opponents, among them such
parliamentary fighters as Bland
of Missouri, chairman of the
Coinage Committee, who thus
states his opinion of the subsOi-
tute; 1.-THE changes are evident
ly designed to overcome objec-
tions, but they do not overcome
the one vital objection to
putting the currency issues of
the country into the hands of the
national banks. No change short
of eliminating national banks of
issue will make the bill approach
an acceptable form. In my
Judgment it is not going to pass
the House. l am not prepared
to say that my substitute pro
viding for issue of coin and coin
notes directly by the government
will pass, but it will certainly be
urged with vigor, and / have no
doubt of it's commanding a very
substantial support"
The friends of the currency
bill have not decided what their
plans will be when the House re-
assemblies, Jan. B. Many of
them left Washington before
President Cleveland returned
from his hunting trip, and Sec.
Carlisle preferred to consult his
chief before advising them. 1t
is generally supposed that a
Democratic caucus will be held
as soon as the House meets again,
and that an attempt will be made
to bind those who attend to vote
for the currency bill that shall
finally be approved by the cauc-
us, after voting on any proposed
amendments.
Representative McLaurin, of
South Carolina, doesn't like the
administration currency bill
even a little, and unlike many
Democrats who are of the same
opinion, he speaks right out.
He says, among other things
against the bill: This bill is
filled with pitfalls and quag-
mires, as are all the financial
measures which have passed
congress since 1860. This is not
Secretary Carlisle's bill. That
gentleman is simply the stalk
ing horse for Wall street. 1t
bears the made trademark of
that locality which is beginning
to be recognized in all parts of
the nation" Mr.. McLaurin
closed his speech with an earnest
plea for the free coinage of sill
yer.
Ex-Gov. Campbell, of Ohio,
who is at present in Washing
ton on legal business, doesn't
take q roseate view of the out
look for congressional legisla-
ton. He said on the subject:
"About all the country expects
OF this congress is to pass the
appropriation bills and adjourn.
Doubtless it would be the wise
thing for congress TO act up to
this expectation. 1t has been
turned down by the November
verdict, and cannot be deemed
great in the eyes of the nation
till an opportunity has been Civ
en to compare it with the Fifty
fourth congress.

strations of JOY and gladness,
serve to obscure conditions
which are to the utmost limit
d~iscreditable to our much vaunt-
ed civilization.
The record says that Christ
mas was first observed A. ID. 90,
and l remember with painful
vividness Christmas of 1898,
1895 years after the first cele-
bration of the day. True, the
church bells chimed, prayers
were offered up, songs were
sung, and the deep-toned organs
voice gave eclat to the celebra-
ton, but all over the land gaunt
famine, in ten thousand desolate
homes, was the guest of families
without food, without fuel, and
without sufficient clothing to
abate the fierceness of the north
winds.
There had been seventeen hun
bred and ninety-five Christmas
holidays, and eighteen hundred
and ninety-three years had elaps-
ed since Christ was born, and l
beheld, as did millions of others,
on Christmas day, 1898, condi-
tions brought about by ''man's
humanity to man." a kin to the
cruelty of the Roman Emperor,
Diocletain, when he ordered the
church door closed when Chris
tians were celebrating the Ma
tivity of Christ, and 900 persisted
in flames. Diocletian was a mon
ster, but on Christmas day, 1893,
multiplied thousands in the
United States of America were
sufferings the pangs of famine,
the result of acts of American
plutocratic Diocletians at the
head of trusts, corporations and
combines, aided and abetted by
men in legislatures and congress,
always in league, concocting
schemes of spoliation, which
considered independent of coun-
teracting efforts, would create
doubts as to the birth of Christ
at all, remanding Christmas to
the limbo of myths, a pleasant
whim to please children, but
having no influence whatever for
the sublimation of national life,
even to admitting chat honesty
is the best policy" or that truth
is preferable to error in political
affairs.
Another Christmas holiday is
near at hand; the bells will again
ring out merry music. There
will be prayers and songs and
good cheer; Santa Claus with
reindeers and loads of toys will
come again, and the children of
the rich and well-to-do will be
happy. Blessings upon their
heads, but there will be homes
thousands of them-with fathers
in enforced idleness, where
mothers and children will have
no presents, and nothing to APP
perse their hunger, except the
pnblic plebian soup house, or the
scanty gleanings of mendicancy;
and this gloomy Christmas will
be largely the result of legisla-
ton and the overmastering greed
of those whose motto is ''self."
l shall hope that Christmas,
1895, will be some Improvement
upon Christmas, 1894. 1t could
scarcely be more in conflict with
the hopes inspired by the teach
ings of Christ. Indeed there
must be a change if the world is
to believe that "Christ is Gomez
if the world is to believe that
His coming is of any benefit to
the poor, who were the special
objects of His solicitude during
the days of His incarnation.
When will Christ come ? When
shall Christmas symbolic good
will to men ? Bryant says :
Oh when the day shall break,
