A Sudden Death

Our little community was shocked
abnnt IL o'clock the forenoon bv the
announcement that Mrs. J B. Fitz
gerald had closed her eyes on the
scenes ut earth to reopen them in the
mystic realms Of the great hereafter.
But fAw ct our people knew that her
condition was serious, and the news
OF her death came as lightning from
a clear sky.
On Monday morning Mrs. FitzDer.
aid gave birth to boy and was
th"nvht to be doing nicely until yes
terday when complications set in that
made her condition serious. This
morning she had so far improved that
MIR. Fitzgerald resumed his work in
the clerks office. During the fore.
noon Mrs. Fitzgerald was taken sud-
denly worse AMI sunk INTO a peace
sui sleep from which she never woke.
The deceased, although native OF
California, was raised in Cornucopia
ana Iuscarora. AZ MISS Matte
Hogle, she was wooeil and won by Mr..
Fitzgerald and in 1892 they we're mar
ried. She was highly regarded by all
who knew her. and many hearts are
saddeued by her untimely death. Ar
infant son and disnoneolate, heart
broken husband survive her.
The arrangements for the funeral
are not complete at this writing, but
will it take place some time Satur.
day. The hour and place will appear
hereafter.
The sympathy of the community
goes out to Mr.. Fitzgerald in his sud.
den bereavement. May the God who
rules all things deal kindly with him
and his motherless boy.

At all events, Molly wrote to her
folks at home, not long ago, that she

first wrote with pencil and then
copied her complaint with a pen.
Mrs. Glenalvin found the pencil
copy OF the letter in the kitchen. and,
being a woman. read it. Then che
showed it to her husband, and he
thought it was too good to keep. So
here is part Of the cpistle according

M'Lean And Silver.

Mclean ought TO win in the Buck
eye gubernatorial race. He is q man
of national reputation. His news
paper, the Cincinnati Enquirer, is one
of the most enterprising news gather
ers in the United States. His other
interests are vast and varied. While
actively engaged in public affairs, he
has made success in several lines OF
private business.
Then there is an especial reason why
the people OF the west would like to
see John r.. Mclean elected governor
OF the presidents home state. One of
the pioneers OF the silver cause, the
first publisher OF a great news paper
east of the Mississippi, in fact, to adj
vocate independent bimetallism, was
this same John X. Mclean.
At no time has he or his paper wa
vered in their support OF free coinage.
The platform upon which he was
nominated the other day, and upon
which he expects to be elected COVER
nor of Ohio, places the money ques-
ton above all others and states the
position of the Democratic party, not
only in Ohio, but in the nation.
The first resolution, clear and ring
ing as silver bell. is rebuke to all
the subsidized pioneers of the cause
who are making excuses now for going
back to Hanna and his organization
1t says:
We heartily reaffirm the entire Chi
cago platform oil 1896; and we espec-
tally emphasize the financial plank
therein, and we continue to denan
the free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer and gold as equal in primary
money at the rate of 10 to /, indepen-
dent Of all other nations in the world.
And, as il loath to pass the issue by
with even that emphatic declaration,
the second plank OF the Ohio platform
reads:
The Hon. William ]. Bryan still re-
tains our confidence, and we demand
his denomination in 1900.
Still, at so much per line, ex.silver
champions are writing and telling
their readers that nobody is talking
silver any morew Surely they pre-
sumo too much upon the ignorance of
those who heed their words.-Salt

The workingman and Irrigation.

At the recent meeting OF the Chicago Federation
Of Labor MIR. George II. Maxwell, 81 san Francisco,
delivered address setting forth the irrigation
question in somewhat light, namely, the op.
portunity which would be accorded to labor ia the
event Of the adoption Of broad irrigation and set.
Element policy Mr. Maxwell said in part:
There is problem confronting the Amer
team people which has closer or fundamental rea-
ton to the welfare Of the great multitude of our cit
liens whose industry is their capital than the problem
of the preservation and reclamation for the people
and for the homebuilder of the arid public domain.
"This great city Of Chicago has been created By the
labor of within the lifetime and memory Of those
who are living. What giant posi- bilities does
the great arid region stl farther to the West hold
for the workers Of this generation They can open
the gateway to it themselves II they but choose 10
do so. They have tho key in their hands. See
how simple the proposition is. Year after year
every year-we WASTING five million dollars which
might be realized from leasing the public grazing
lands. II this great sum expended in the con-
struetion OF irrigation works enormous amount Of
rrigable lands could be annually reclaimed.
at would be reclaimed without the creation OF
dollar OF debt, without the issue OF single bond
without the Government parting with any nteres, in
the lands and when reclaimed the land could be sold
to actual settlers only in small tracts at price 30 low
as to bring irrigated farm within easy reach Of
any industrious wageearner. Then the ownership Of
such farm would enttle him TO go out on the range
and lease for nominal rental of from one to five
cents per year his proportion Of the public
grazing lands, enough for his needs to which he
would have the exclusive right Of possession with
this and few sheep or cattle he would be well start
ed on the road to Independence and eventual wealth "
The Chicago Federation of Labor unanimously
adopted resolutions declaring against cession OF the
public lands and fayorng the leasing of the grazing
lands and the building by the Federal Government
OF storage reservoirs to save the flood waters now
wasted

The Theatre from the Inside.

That there are five thousand theatres
In America, and that one million and
half people attend them each week
day night, spending seventy millions
OF dollars year on theatre-going are the
surprising facts with which Mr., Frank
lin Fyles, the dramatic editor of the
New York Sun, will open an important
series in the next issue of The Ladies'
Home Journal. The series will be
called ''The Theatre and its People"
and will run through seven numbers
OF the magazine, lavishly illustrated
with pictures made by twelve different
artists. The articles will treat of every
phase of the theatre, the play and the
actor, from the inside, and will tell how
a theatre is managed; the actual
money which plays have made; how
an actor is trained and what the actors
are actually paid; how play is writ
ten and what the authors receive; how
a play is rehearsed; the first night of
a play; how the actresses make up"
aud what they use; and in minute
way the two last articles will show
what goes on behind the scenes on the
stage during a performance. 1t is a
curious fact that this will be the first
time that the theatre and the actor
have ever been extensively treated in
a magazine, and that there is no book
on the subject in existence.
