Aunt Sally Replied To

Editor Herald: Perhaps Aunt Sally"
is of the male persuasion, seeing she
realizes the present deplorable condition
Of the country, industrially and polit-
ically, something beyond the average
woman to conceive. Well, it's equally
pertinent, no matter what the sex. Do
not bar the way to your own freedom.
So long as woman is in political bond
age, man will remain in industrial SER
vitude; along with her enfranchisement
must come her economic freedom. The
scale in wage had been kept down in a
measure for man because women were
underpaid for the same work. Men and
women together will learn wisdom and
learn that political freedom does not
imply freedom in it's fullest sense. I
assure Aunt Sally, if she is Aunt"
that her understanding of the political
and economic condition of the country
gives me great assurance that if one
woman is alive to the situation there is
every hope that the thinkers of her sex
will set about investigating these
things for themselves, and not go it
blind as the men have done for the past
thirty years. Why, 1 am still more en-
couraged as find here and there a wo-
man studying the questions of the day.
My faith in womankind grows stronger
that since man had not been able to
open the door to his own freedom, wo-
man will be able by her intuition to
snow MIN the way out OIL the WlluerneSS
/ fully agree with Aunt Sally in all she
has depicted of the state of our coun-
try, but not with her fears and uncer-
tainties; other women can be TRUSTED
as well as Aunt Sally. I have not
changed my opinion; she will have to
get on higher plane, ready for the in
coming century, else she will be held
back by the "superstitions" of the past,
and her nieces will sweep past into the
new cycle of time. Put behind you
every vestige and semblance of the
Old to grasp the grander possibilities of
the New. BEN S. MAY.

DEMOCRACY WILL STAND FIRM

The Philadelphia Times says that "no
man today could render greater service
an early letter-and the earlier the better
summoning the friends of honest money
and honest government to the support
of sound national policy, regardless OF
the issue of the national contest
The Philadelphia Ledger remarks that
"given a choice between a Sound-money
Republican and a silver Democrat thous-
ands of Democrats would support the Re
publican, and the Democratic party could
not hope to carry a single Northern state,
while its representatives in congress from
this section would be reduced to a cor

Honest-money Democratic leaders in
Chicago have formally taken the field
agans5 fer party rne fSe uhcago
tDem.) reports. They have held pre-
liminary meeting, made arrangements for
and sora to
declaration by the Democratic state con-
vention in favor Of free silver.
"Free silver is good thing for the sill
product of his mines," the Richmond State
(Den.) says: But for the south, which
has no silver mines, which is entering upon
capital for the South to fly in the face of
sound business precedents, in the face of
the monetary policy Of the world, is folly
that means fixed disadvantage to the en-
tire section"
The Baltimore Sun Dem.) serves notice
of bolt. There are" it says, sin every
Southern state sensible men who see wha t
free coinage means practically, and in
several states they are in numbers Suffi-
Client to hold the balance of power. On
the principle that ones skin is closer than
his shirt they will vote against the silver
basis. panic. disaster. industrial paralysis
and stagnation, even if they have to vote
against the Democratic nominee"
The Buffalo Courier Dem.) hears that
certain discredited Democratic leaders in
several states desire to go to the Chicago
convention to advocate a straddle of the
silver question. "This may explain" ii
says, "the disposition of the Democratic
state organization to postpone the Demo
cratic state convention to the latter part
of June, instead of putting the New York
Democracy at the head Of the sound-money
procession In time to do effective work for
the sound-money cause.
1.-THE result of the Alabama primaries
should simply give the sound-money DEM
ocrats a clearer comprehension of what
they have to do in preventing the Demo-
cratic party from forgetting its heritage
and its mission and going off into an orgy
of Populism and fiatism." the Louisville
Courier-Journal Dem.) says. "They must
recognize the obstacles in their path and
go to work to overcome them. The way to
win at Chicago is to win in the preliminary
primaries ind conventions; and these are
now close upon u.s."

THE SEVEN AGES up TO DATE

Wheeling and squealing in his nurses

Then the scorching school boy, with new

And peaked. cycle face, whizzing like time

Wheeling like broken bellows on wheel

Next comes the father, portly and obese,
Who rides forty FOUNDER to hold down

Into the lean and slhipperesd bloa9merloon.
These lines must be left to the imagination.
And finally. last scene Of all,

WORRIED EUROPE

The old-world countries seem to be
all "upsot." The task Of navigating in
latitudes other than their own seems
full of discouragement and plentifully
bcsprinkled with snags. England has
started a campaign up the Nile which
threatens to absorb men and money like
the desert drinks UP water. and that
makes her own people unhappy with
doubt and distrust.
Italy is in q state Of harassing un-
certainty as to the outcome of her at
tempt to sport q vigorous foreign policy,
la Brittania, and is really hoping that
something or somebody will happen
along to help her let go that Abyssinian
crab.
France is in the turmoil OF another
ministerial crisis, and is also very much
distressed over the way she does not
prevent England carrying out her de-
signs in Egypt.
Spain is making frenzied efforts to
maintain her weakening grip on slip
perry Cuba, and at the same time is
much distressed lest she become in
volved in war with this country.

Russia and Germany are concerned,
however, it is only matter of time when
the Nihilists in the one and the Social
lists in the other make things intensely
interesting. The present European con-
dition is the fruit of injustice at home
and piracy abroad.

nr. sempIe's Rejoinder

Editor Herald: The elongated, long
drawn out, never stop to think
harangue of Brother Randolph in de-
Tending the labor exchange theory is
conclusive proof that the gentleman is
severely afflicted with the disease of
admiration for that delusive theory.
Portions of his last article are founded
on or confounded with his invention of
saying what did not say and leaving
unanswered what I did say. With one
foot in the stirrup, and before he gets
half mounted on his delusive hobby, he
starts thus: "Mr. Semple would be en-
tirely correct if he said that if individual
enterprise in production is a right prin-
ciple for society to adopt, then monop-
oily is right"
Now, Brother Randolph, never mind
attempting an explanation of what did
not say. You have a sufficiently large
contract on hand to reply to what
did say. Lest you make another mis-
take 1 will repeat this. consider in
dividual effort in production a correct
principle, consequently competition is
right and monopoly is wrong, and for
society to adopt. 1t Is immensely su-
perior to what you socialists advocate
and are pleased to term cooperative
production under governmental con-
troll and governmental distribution,
which simply means equal distribution
tive system, of which the labor ex-
change Is its youngest cub, involves the
suicide of hope, the annihilation of am
bition, the determination of justice
and the interruption and disruption of
human progress, and If once adopted
would for ever afterwards compel hu-
manity to hobble on the crutches of
governmental aid.
To quote again: 1.-THE possibility of
production and distribution by means of
cooperation has not as yet dawned on
Mr.. Semple's consciousness" Correct,
Brother Randolph. For once you are
correct, but the impossibility of so
doing has more than once dawned on
my consciousness. l have been made
painfully conscious of the inpossibility
by the numerous wrecks of co-opera-
tive enterprises scattered over the
continent. among the recent ones be-
ing the Topolobampo effort In Mexico.

A PATHETIC LOBBYIST

If the picture Walter Wellman of the
Chicago Times-H Herald paints of Coils
P. Huntington in Washington is true to
the life, the distinguished and more or
less successful lobbyist mixes pathos
with the other influences utilized by
him to attain his ends. Wellman writes
from the federal capital to his paper as
follows:
Coils P. Huntington is now easily the
most picturesque figure about the capi-
tol. Mr.. Huntington has personally
taken charge of his campaign for pas
sage of the Pacific railway funding bill.
With tears in his eyes, Mr.. Huntington
begs for consideration and for the votes
necessary to success. 81 am an old man.
whose career is now fast drawing-to a
close" he pleads, "and this is the only
unfinished business 1 have in the world.
I want it settled up. want to feel that
if were to die in year my affairs will
all be in good shape. I have been in
business all my life. I have carried on
great operations. There is not stain
upon my honor, except this unfinished
and unsettled debt to the government"
When, in reply to this appeal the sug-
gestion is made that the easiest way for
MIR. Huntington to arrange his debts Is
to pay them, the old man, who spends
all his time about the corridors and
committee rooms of the capitol, be-
comes so pathetic that no one has the
heart to press him very hard. Mr.. Hunt
ington has a larger number of "attor-
neys" helping him, and thinks he is
certain to pass his bill; but inasmuch as
the proposed refunding act gives the
roads ninety-nine years in which to pay,
and during that time the interest pay
ments which the government will be
called upon to make amount to more
than all the sums which are to be paid
into the treasury, and inasmuch, more
over, as congressional election is COM
ing on next autumn, it is not believed
Mr.. Huntington and his attorneys will
be able to command majority of the
house.

Dearth at Woodland. California, of a
 Phoenix Girl.

Many residents of this city will re member Rev. and Mrs. D. w. Calfes, who resided here several years ago and will be grieved to learn of the death of their daughter Ruth, who was born in this city on November 4, 1884. The death of the young girl occurred at Woodland, Cal, last Thursday. The following excerpt is from the Wood land Mail:
 She showed marked ability in sing ing and reciting at the early age of 3 years. While visiting the worlds fair with her parents she contracted a se- were cold which seriously affected her vocal organs. The best of specialists we're consulted, but she was pro nounced incMable. During the visit of the family at the conference held at Pacific Grove '5hls year, she became very ill and received a stroke of pa ralysis of the vocal organs. For four weeks the little sufferer could not lie down, and suffered intensely. She was at last moved home to Cacheville to die. Being unable to speak she wrote on her pillow with her finger that she wanted to die, and gave all necessary directions for her funeral She re- mained conscious to the last and bid her brothers and parents a fond, but sad farewell"

A NEW FIRM.

Phoenix is to have an ex- clusively wholesale grocery house, which will be open for busi- ness about November l. The location is in the new brick building adjoining the present postoffice on West Washington street, The name of the new firm will be the Barkley- Bergman Mercantile Co.,, and nothing but wholesale trade will be solicited. The senior member of the firm, Thos. J. Barkley, has for a number of years been engaged in the wholesale grocery trade in Georgetown, Ky, where he was successful business man. The junior partner, H. w. Berryman, was formerly in business in Frankfort, Ky. Both gentlemen are highly spoken of by the press of Frankfort and Georgetown and will doubtless be valuable additions ito commercial cir cles here. This firm when established will be the only exclusive jobbing house between Los Angeles and Fl Paso and will accordingly be welcomed to Phoenix, which is bound to be in the near future a base of supplies for the whole southwest.
