EASY ITO GUESS.

Copies of the Washington Star with the following article marked have been received in Phoenix It will not be difficult for the people of Arizona to locate the "new member referred to by The Star:
 Sometimes the dignity of senator is upset in very funny manner Wednesday when MT. Tiliman was speaking a member of the house came in and seeing a seat in -lthe back row on the Republican side empty dropped into it and became interested in the speech. In moment the owner of the seat put in an appearance. He walked up to the seat and stood a moment, but not being noticed retired to the rear and propped himself up against the wall, to glover on the offending member. Presently he tried it again, going up on the other side of the rep resentative. The member looked up, but, being a new man, did not rec ognize the august presence, and, nov ing his chair a little, again turned his attention to the speaker. By this time an attendant caught onto the situa- tion, and rushed around to bring a common cane seat chair, which he placed beside the member, and with a motion suggested the propriety, evil dently. of his moving into it. The member glanced at the chair, then around at the gentleman standing be- hind him, and then showed his cush- toned chair a little more to one side, and motioned the senator to take the cane seat one. The senator, decidedly amused by this time, took it. Pres ently the member, with an awakened mind, looked at the senator, then at the desk in front of which he was sit ting, glanced hastily around the senate chamber to see how many were aware of his usurpation of the senator's seat, and catching many amused smiles, sprang to his feet, nearly upsetting the dignified senator whose seat he had conf1scated, and with many apologies and much confusion slid out of the room.

THE NEW WOMAN" SERIOUSLY
 CONSIDERED.

The question of who and what the new woman is cannot be brushed aside as one of the trivialities of the silly season, in the estimation of the Chicago Times-Herald It points to the election of two women in Kansas to the office of recorder of deeds in their respective counties. The office is an important one, with good sal ary attached, and each of the women elected had several active male con- petitors in the struggle for nomination. And they are not the first women elected to office in Kansas. They are regarded by many as logical sequences of the "new woman" movement.
 Surely their election typifies the pos abilities of that newer, fin de siecle expression of the aggressive force of advanced womanhood. But neither of these Kansas women is addicted to the bloomer habit. They are said to be very womanly women and scorn the slightest approach in either dress or manners to an assumption of mascu- line prerogatives. ''s3
 If the womanly woman who exempli- fes all the ideals of domestic refine ment and yet succeeds in invading the county offices in Kansas that have been controlled heretofore by men is the real "new woman what shall we call the new specimen of feminine de- velopment who aspires to simulate men in both dress and manners?

Following these headlines The World

Following these headlines The World walls as follows: '4
 For days the senate had been wait ,sng for the representatives of the Mor- mon state to put the seal of emphasis upon the vote for free silver. These two envoys from a district of alkali desert, sage brush and dead sea were to nullffy the voice of New York, with her 6,O00,000 inhabitants and S5,785,- g10,313 of real and personal property.
 The World takes no account of the fact that a large proportion of New Yorlz's three billion dollars of wealth has been accumulated from the .abors of the western toilers. Having had So large share in the production of New York's vast wealth, who had a better right than the people of the west to anul.ify" the vote of the Empire state?
 With a side wipe .. the Republican party, The World proceeds thus bit ser1y:
 The rotten borough system was hatched in the bosom of the Republi gan party. Its leaders have gradually changed the senate from conservative representative and careful legislative council into a machine for defeating she will of the people. It has gathered into the senate reckless and unrepre sentative men. It has. paralyzed the most important legislation demanded by the populous and wealthy states of the east Idaho, with a population of S4,385 and property valued at $26, ,748, 457, has an equal vote with Pennsyl- wania, whose population is 5,258,O14, -nd whose property is assessed at 2,659, ,79S, 9O9. The mining camps of Nevada, with 45,760 population are equal to the great state of Illinois. The senate represents the states in their corporate capacity. It repre- sents neither property nor population. Its members are ambassadors from sovereignties Prairie statesmanship and mining gulch demagogism vote on an equality against the well consid- cred weighty measures of common wealths containing millions of people and crowded with cities and towns centers of manufacture, commerce and education. Senator Peffer's vote neg atives the vote of Senator Sherman.
 Behold how thankful the people should be for Senator Peffer.
 In the foregoing The World voices the almost unanimous sentiment of the controlling element in eastern politics. How do western people like to be So regarded by the class whose immense fortunes so large a percentage of their earnings from year ito year have gone Fn swell? Western people are all right

A church at Lynn, Mass, has passed the following resolution:
 We heartily endorse the brave and patriotic words of Senator Tillman; that we believe his charges against the Democratic and Republican leaders to be true and easily proved, and that we pledge ourselves to uphold him and his few colleagues so long as they de- fend the rights of the people against the legal tyrannies and embezzlements of the rich.

Has Air, ady Lost Two Million Dollars
and Settlement Not in Sight.
Leadville, Colo, Sept. This is
the seventy fifth day of the strike, and
marks the inception of the most import
ant action taken on either side, as for
the first time since long before the
strike began, the great pumps in two of
the leading mines, the Bonair and
Penrose, are idle. The order for stop
page came yesterday afternoon and was
obeyed at once. The movement means
that the mine-owners hope to force the
union to declare the strike off, or that
they think to avoid trouble by closing
down on everything and allowing the
mines to fill with water, rather than
submit to the dictation of the union.
The strike has already cost 50, 900, 900,
and there is nothing to indicate that it
is any nearer settlement than on the
day it began.

IN BLEAK LABRADOR.
Starvation and Disease Extermfnating
the Native Tribes.

Starvation and Disease DISCRIMINATING
the Native Tribes.
Quebec. Sept. 2.-Sad stories Of the
gradual disappearance and death 1ron
restitution and disease of the scattered
Indian tribes of Labrador have just
been brought here by the Roman Catn-
Ollie missionaries, Fathers Goyer and
La Coste, who have arrived from tne
bleak part of the coast opposite to ana
under the jurisdiction OF Newfouno-
land. Government aid will be abso-
lutely necessary to the existence OF
these wretched people during the COM
ing winter. The coasts frequented by
them are all but depleted OF game anu
fur bearing animals, and the taking OF
beaver has been prohibited until lsoo
in order to prevent its total destruc'
ton.
In former years the Indians derived
much of the means of their subsistence
from the vast quantities OF the eggs OF
various kinds of sea fowl that ire
ouented all these coasts. Of late years,
however, the Importance and value OF
these egg deposits have attracted the
attention of fishermen and sailors OF
Newfoundland, and now they descend
in such swarms upon the coasts that
nothing is left for the indians, VINO are
driven off as intruders by the pirates II
they seek to share in the bounteous
wealth deposited by the sea birds. Inc
Newfoudlanders ship these eggs OF to
the United States in immense quantl-
ties where they are sold to confectlon-
ers and biscuit manufacturers.
Another fruitful cause of the spread
of restitution, disease and death among
these Indians is the facility afforded
them of obtaining spirituous liquors
despite all legal enactments to the con-
trary. There is virtually no enforce
ment of law upon the coast of Labra-
dor, and unprinclpled traders from
Newfoundland and elsewhere, by ply
ing the unsophisticated savages with
firewater are enabled to obtain from
them the entire fruits of their hunting
and trapping expeditions
Some thrilling stories are told of the
native savagery of Labrador Indians
Often impelled by hunger they have
killed and eaten those nearest to them.
The influence exerted over other mem
bers of the tribes by their jugglers or
medicine men is the greatest drawback
to the work of the missionaries among
them.

A Dash Down Pixies Peak.

The first accident on the Pixies Peak
