SILVER AND EQUAL RIGHTS.

THE Gazette says that Mrs. Laura
M. Johns will not be sent to Ari-
zonr as formerly announced by the
National American Woman Suf-
frage association, but in her stead
will come Mrs. Emma Smith De.
Voc. In letter to Ms. Cerella
Hayden Hollen beck, of this city,
Carrie Chapman Gait, chairman of
the committee on organization,
writes that Mrs. De Voc is an ar
dent friend of silver and its strug-
giles for recognition, and for this
reason she is thought the proper
person to send to Arizona, where
all are friendly to the white metal.
Meetings have been arranged for
fifteen towns and cities in this ter
ritory, and Mesa, Florence, Hol-
brook and Fairbanks are yet to
hear from on this subject.
1t would seem from the above
that an active campaign will be
waged by the women who wish to
vote; also that they will throw
their influence upon the side of free
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16
to l. This latter part of the pro-
gramme is only surmised, however,
from the advocate they send to
take charge of the crusade. A fine
line of very complimentary press
notices accompany the letter to
Mrs. Hollenbeck, and if Mrs. De-
Voc is as described by many excel
lent newspapers, her addresses will
be worth hearing.

Heaven Enough for Him.

An editor who died of starvation
after making DR.. Tanner and the
New Mexican healer ashamed of
themselves, was escorted to heaven
by an angel who had been sent for
that purpose.
"May l look at the other place

SO they went below, and skir.

The angel lost track of the editor

him up. He found him by a big
furnace, tanning himself and gaz.

pie in the fire.

AN attempt has been made upon
the life of Baron Alphonse D'Roths-
child. A large and heavy envel.
ope was received at the bank last
week adressed to the baron and
was opened by M. Zadkovitz, the
confidential clerk of the banker.
Just as the clerk opened the envel-
ope,it exploded, tearing bis right

fingers. The contents of the strange
envelope was nothing more than an
Internal machine. 1t consisted OF
pieces Of card board tightly bound
together and WAS similar in appear
ance to packages frequently receiv-

is presumed, contained illuminate

SAVE THE NATION.

A correspondent in the Rocky
Mountain NepS writes:
Enough has been demonstrated
by recent events to convince all
thinking people of the designs and
purposes of Lombard street and
its subservient tool, Wall street,
and it would seem that now is the
time for all lovers of liberty, all
who hold the institution and future
prosperity. of this great nation
above past party affiliations to
unite upon a common platform
with one broad plank-national
finance.
1t is quite safe to assume that
every man who is sound upon this
vital question is rlgnt, at heart,
upon all other questions involving
the liberty, rights and prosperity
of all the people. When this one
great and vital question is settled
in the interest of the masses all
others will readily adjust them
selves to the new condition of
things. In this last great strug-
gle for right, for liberty, for future
prosperity, for the nations life, put
none but giant intellects to the
fore, l2y aside for the time being
personal political aspiration and
selfishness and march shoulder to
shoulder in the name of humanity
to certain victory. Is there in this
great nation of intelligent and lib
erty loving people, wisdom enough,
manhood enough, patriotism
enough to meet this issue and stay
the hand that seeks to reduce the
masses to poverty, to serfdom?
Will this question be answered in
the affirmative by united action?
If so the great national finance
party viii sweep the country at
the next national election from
ocean to ocean, from lakes to gulf.
Republicans, Democrats-your
trusted servants have permitted
European financiers to dictate the
financial policy of your beloved
country until you have been rob.

nations life is almost extinct and

The WeepinR Willow.

EDITOR GUARDIAN:-I notice that
quite number of our people have
that beautiful tree known as the
Weeping Willow on their premises.
From an old account of that tree
l heard an interesting story con
cerning 1t, and, as the story is
beautiful allow me to relate it:
Alexander Pope the famous trans
lator of Ilaid of Homer, had a
country-seat in England called
Twickenham. He adorned his
small grounds with a variety of
shrubbery. A friend sent him a
Weeping Willow from Smyrna, in
Asia. This tree became the parent
Of all the Weeping Willows in
Great Britain. A sprig from
this aged tree was brought to Bos-
ton about the time our revolution
airy gale sprung up, by young
British officer, an aide.de.camp to
General Clinton, and he expected
the revolution to be soon quelled
and that he would become the pos.
SCISSOR Of some confiscated lands: so
he came ready to plant one choice
! tree at least, on his future lands in
the American colonies. The men
who did not want to be taxed with
out representation were more stub
born than this gay, young dreamer
had looked for, and he found that
his sprig of Weeping Willow would
die before the confiscated lands fell
to his share. In an interview with
George Washington's step-son and
aide, Colonel Custis, he presented
him with the Twickenham Willow,
stating the history of it. Custis
planted it at his home in Abingdon,
Va, 1t became the parent of an.
other tree ut Mount Vernon, Wash.
ington's home, and of the Weeping
Willow in America, General Gates
transferred sprout from the origi.
nal tree to his home in New York
Thus it was scattered. From the
tree at Mount Vernon, Malcolm
| McGebe brought a sprig to the
then wilds of Mississippi, where in
many places it was found by the
early white settlers. This tree
and the bee may be looked upon as
the harbingers and precursors Of
civilization and social revolution
A Weeping Willow brought tc
America in the early days of the
American revolution by the young
British officer was q precursor Of
