Great Life Work.

written for This Paper.1

On November IL, 1878, was born to
Judge Daniel Cady and Margaret Liv-
ingston Cady, at Johnstown, n. Y,
daughter destined to become famous
all over the world as a friend of the
oppressed, crusader against legal in
Justice to women, a leader among true
reforners, and the equal in wit, elo-
quence, learning and real statesman
ship of the foremost men of America.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, the sOth
anniversary of whose birth is about to
be celebrated, was a child of marked
intellectual ability, and had the bene-
fits of thorough education. Her at
tention was early called to the marked
differences made by society between
the training of boys and girls, mani
festly to the detriment of her own sex,
and she was quick to perceive that the
laws of the land were in direct conflict
with the natural rights of women. Be-
ing in the habit as q child of spending
much time in the law office of her fa-
ther, she there heard discussions on the
injustice of those laws, and in her child
ish innocence she wished to cut out of
the law books the obnoxious statutes,
thinking that this would abolish the
legal wrongs.
One of her first disappointments was
the refusal of Union college to admit

in 1885, he was one of the handsomest
young men I have ever known. His
hair was black, and there was not
trace of gray in his well-trimmed beard.
His eyes are large and expressive and
his manners gentle and mild. But he is
a forceful man, and of tireless energy.
Senator John b. Gordon, of Georgia,
is now 63 years of age, but as erect, stall
wart, soldierly in appearance as when
he gallantIy led the confederate soldiers
in many hard-fought battle. He has
long been the most popular man in his
state, and has the hearts OF the young
men of Georgia close pressed to his own
heart, for they almost worship him. He
was brave soldier and was eight times
wounded in battle. Gen. Lee regarded
him as one of the ablest generals, and
he commanded wing of Lees army
when that great confederate soldier sur
rendered his army to Gen. Grant. I'm
nIediately thereafter Gen. Gordon re-
turned to private life and took part in
political affairs. When the democrats
carried Georgia in 1872 Gen. Gordon was
elected to the senate. He served two
terms, but resigned his seat and entered
upon private business. He was elected
governor of Georgia, and again elected
to the senate in 1890. He can stay in
the senate as long as he lives, for his
people delight to honor him; and he con-
fers honor upon his state by his distin-
guished services. He is a magnetic
orator, and as a lecturer has won re-
ncwn. SMITH d. FRY.

SENATORIAL LEADERS.
Calvin Brice, Of Ohio, Is a Man Of
Great Strength.

tOn-Other BraIny Men.
Special Washington Letter.

Senator Calvin S. Brice, of Ohio, is
one of the ablest men in public life to-
day. 1t is true, he is accused of being
a very rich man, but his oldest friends
know that he has right to be rich, for
he accumulated his own fortune. He
was very poor boy, very homely and
without any indications of genius that
anybody could see. He was jolly and
good-natured, even if he was poor; so
he made friends and worked his way
along until he secured a good educa-
ton. He is eminently a self-made man,
and his history is worthy of emulation
by any young man in the land. He is
just so years of age, but he looks much
younger. His bushy hair is dark
brown and his thick beard is almost red.
He looks somewhat like Hebrew, but
is of straight Anglo-Saxon stock. His
father was "a Presbyterian minister, and

ognition for his true worth. He had
been called nothing but a politician;
but then he showed himself to be con-
stitutional lawyer and statesman equal
to the best men who had ever held posi-
tions upon the senate floor. He refused
to vote for a tariff bill which included
the income tax clause, and concluded
his speech by saying: 'Sink or swim,
survive or perish, cannot and will not
vote for this bill" He was the only
democrat who voted against the meas
ure. Since that time the supreme court
has sustained Senator Hill, by declaring
the income tax unconstitutional. He
is a great man, but like many other
great men is not appreciated for his
real worth by his own generation. We
do not always elect our greatest men to
the presidential Office. Blaine, Thur
man, Clay, Webster and others of like
renown could not reach the white house.
No greater men of their generations
achieved the honor. So it seems will
be the case with the great senator from
New York, who has aspired to the high
est honor in the gift of the people. His
party, as whole, does not seem to have
appreciated him at his true worth.
Senator Orville 81. Platt, of Connec-
ticut, has been a senator for IS years,
and will probably be elected to succeed
himself for a fourth term. The SEN
sible people of the New England states
and of the southern states are
accustomed to retaining their good
men in public life until they become
strong and influential in national af-
fairs. But the people of the middle
states and of the western states have
not all of them yet learned the
value of experience in public affairs,
and they change their public servants
all too often. Senator Platt was for
many years chairman of the commit
tee on territories. 1t was during his
chairmanship that the states of Mon
tana, North Dakota, South Dakota,
Washington, Idaho and Wyoming were
admitted to the union. He has served
his state and the nation with distinc-
tion, and his labors have been diligent,
continuous and painstaking. He is
member of the important and exacting
committees on the judiciary, patents,
Indian affairs and revision of the laws.
Senator William f. Villas, of Wiscon-
sin, is a man of great ability. He is 50
years of age, but still in the vigor OF
virile and aggressive strength. His
life has been busy one, and he is never
happy unless he is busy. I had the
good fortune to serve him as a subor-
dinate for short time when he was.
postmaster general and learned to ap-
preciate his qualities of heart as well us
brain. He was soldier during the civil
war, then studied law and has practiced
ever since. While he was postmaster
general and secretary of the interior he
performed more work than any other
two members of the cabinet. He is a
great orator, and it was largely due to
his personal efforts that the state OF
Wisconsin was carried by the demo.
Gratis in 1890, with the result that he
was elected to the senate to succeed
Senator Spooner, who, by the way, was

her to its courses because she was a
woman, and this led her to think more
seriously of the injustice put upon
women by custom and prejudice. TAX
ing up the study of law she became
thoroughly conversant with that sub
ject, especially with the laws relating
to women; knowledge that has been of
the greatest usefulness to her in her
chosen work. Soon after her marriage
in 1910 to Henry Brewster Stanton, the
anti-slavery orator, journalist and au-
thor, she went to London as delegate
to the anti-slavery convention.
Because she was a woman she was
refused seat in the convention; but
there she met Lucretia Mott, the fore
most female character in American
history. This chance acquaintance
ship pointed out to Mrs. Stanton her
own field of work, into which she entered
with all. the zeal of an enthusiast. The
American women determined that
when they returned to America they
would have a woman's convention, but
this was not held until 184S, at Seneca
Falls, n. Y, where Mr.. and Mrs. Stanton
were then living. Mrs. Stanton was the
and wrote the resolutions and declara-
tion of the aims of the convention. One
of the resolutions was the first decla-
ration in favor of woman suffrage, and
read as follows:
Resolved, That 1t is the duty of the women
of this country to secure to themselves their
sacred right to the elective franchise.
Old Judge Cady thought his disti1i-
guished daughter must have lost her
mind when he read this resolution.
went to see her, and tried to reason her
out of her position, but without sue
cess, for she was made of as stern stuff
as he when it came to maintaining what
she believed to be right. In this mat
ter she was in advance of some of the
most noted reformers of her own sex,
notably Lucretia Mott, who tried to
dissuade Mrs. Stanton from pressing
the franchise clause in the Seneca Falls
convention, but five years later, at the
Cleveland convention, proposed to have
it adopted in honor of Mrs. Stanton. Her
hard and earnest work as crusader
against the unjust laws relating to
married women may be said to have be-
gun in 1854, when she addressed the
New York legislature on the rights of
married women, at which time she
demonstrated her unusual ability as
an orator and jurist. About this time
also she began her advocacy of laws
allowing divorce for drunkenness on
the part of the husband, and addressed
the New York legislature on that sub
ject in 1860. Again in 1867 she was be-
fore the legislature and the constitu-
tional convention of New York, main
tanning that during revision of the con-
stitution the state was resolved into
its original elements, and that therefore
citizens of both sexes had the right to
vote for members of the convention.
From 1856 to 1865 Mrs. Stanton was
president of the national committee OF
the suffrage party. In 1863 she was
president of the Woman's Loyal league,
and until 1850 was the president of the
National Womap's Suffrage association.
When Mrs. Stanton began her work
for women she found the condition Of

1 do not want the union Of church

church of God does not show itself in
favor of the Lord, the time will come
when the church as an ins titution will
be extinct, and Christ will go down
again to the beach and choose twelve
plain, honest fishermen to come up in

ward.
l never believed so much in Re-
publican form of government as [ do
to-day, for the single reason that any
other style Of government would have
been consumed long ago. There have
been swindies enacted in this nation
within the last thirty years enough to
swamp three mOnarchies. The Demo-
cratic party filled its cup of iniQuity
before it went out of power before the
war. Then the Republican party
came along, and its opportunities,
through the contracts, we're greater,
and SO it filed its cup Of iniquity a
little soon; aud there they lie today,

Yes, go to Nature for profits. Steal

Don't cheat your fellows. And when
you get them put them in your pocket

your precious egislation. You can
commence right away without asking

dream all night about your pretty
laws.
Human laws, brother, but serve to
mark the boundaries of human
crimes. Are pure negotiations, con-
tanning no active positive good. Are
restrictive only. They are mockery-
of-Divine-or if you are an atheist
natural law. Crime is the legitimate
heir to wrong conditions. Right the
conditions, and law atrophies. In the
meantime legislation acts as dis
traction to honest men, and furnishes
a bond Of union to rascals. When he
comes it won't be in cloud of legisla-
tive vapor. Far more likely to be a
cloud of smoke, boiling up from the
chimneys Of honest toll.
