SHE WANTS A SEAT IN CONGRESS.
Mrs. Marilla NJ. Kicker. OF Dover, N.
H., who is wellknown in Washington,
where she studied law and was admit
ted top ractice in the Supreme Court Of
the district in 1882, announces her in
tention to run for Congress in the First
(Dover) district of New Hampshire.
She claims the honor of being the first
woman who ever tried to vote in the
United States. That was twenty-eight
years ago. She is a woman suffragist
as well as a practicing lawyer and an
unwavering Republican. She is a
handsome woman and an eloquent
speaker. She took the stump for Har-
rison and was active in the campaign
of 1886. She is a member of the Wi
modaughsis Club, OF Washington; the
Portia Club and Pentagon Club, of Bos-
ton, and the Daughters of the evolu-
ton, and the Daughters of the Revolu-
ton.
Il have always intended to run for
Congress" she says, "and soon the fight
will be on for the principle of woman
representation. There is no constitu-
tional or staute law prohibiting a wo-
man from being elected to Congress. |

more interesting published than
Charles A. Dana's "Reminiscences, d"

thus far is the paper in Mcclure s

recOllections of Lincoln and his Cabi-
net Living in the closest official and
social relations with Lincoln and the
members OF the Cabinet for a consid-
cradle time, Mr.. Dana's opportunities
for knowing them were perfect; and he
has set forth his Impressions OF them
with that perfect franlxness and that
sure sense of the central characteristic
which make his portraitures so reai
and definite. The portraits from photo
graphs in the Government Civil Wal

REPUBLICAN PRIZE WINNERS.

From sources high in the Regular
Republican ranks It is learned that
State Chairman Hugh c. Browne has
received positive assurance that upon
the expiration OF the term OF United
States District Attorney Lewis G. Van
degrift, or as soon thereafter as the
public interest viii warrant, he will be
appointed to the office for the period OF
four years This is most gratifying
news to the friends OF the young state
chairman, who has devoted many years
90 active political work. Prior to his
election to the chairmanship OF the
recognized Republican organization Of
Delaware he was secretary OF the State
Committee, and performed invaluable
service TO his party without covering
himself with political flth. There are,
OF course. many Republicans in the state
who would rather see someone else OBJ
tain the comfortable berth, most not
ably the Union Republicans and the
friends OF William Michael Byrne, Mr..
Brownies Regular Republican rival for
the honor. But Mr.. Browne Is fortu-
nate enough to have the necessary
backing, and it is apparent that those
who would keep the office from him
will have to submit-gracefully If they
feel disposed, and ungracefully II they
do not.
At the same time it is given out that
Washington Hastings is to be appoint
ed postmaster. He is credited with
having the recommendation Of Colonel
Henry A. Dupont and the personal
friendship of President Mckinley. II
these expectations are realized It will
be severe blow to Winfield S. Quig-
ley and DR.. Evan G. Shortlidge, both
Of whom entertain high hopes Of re-
ceiving the appointment.
The Addlcks people take no interest
in the matter They long ago conclud-
ed that the Mckinley administration
he'd no dispensatiins for them, and they
have ceased hoping.
Hungry Delaware Republicans say
that the civil service rules will soon be
50 modified as to permit of the removal
of all Democrats at present employed In
{ the Wilmington post office. The wish
may be father to the thought, but many
Of the faithful are hanging around the
city looking as though they expected
an opening somewhere, and in a short
time.
Ex-Chairman Frederick e. Bach is in
Washington devoting more time to the
rural free delivery Office service than to
the rural free delivery mail service. Oc-
casionally he sends up some encourage
ing word to the boys who worked for
him so faithfully before he felt con-
strained to relinquish the chairmanshir
Of the First District Committee, and
they put great faith in his promises.
It will be we'll for the Democrati,
members Of Congress from Delaware tC
