to show our appreciation of this fact.

believes that anything that tends to
make this a good market, is a benefit
to the farmer, the town and himself, to
get in a carload of -four about Dec. l.,

Clara Barton on Woman Suf.
frage.
A letter from Clara Barton has re-
Gently been given to the press, which
may be Of interest to many, as com
ing from one who has devoted her
life to the service of her country,
which, in turn, refuses her any voice
in choosing those who are to rule
over its destinies.
81 believe I must have been born
believing in the full right of women
to all the privileges and positions
which nature and justice accord to
her in common with other human be-
ings. Perfectly equal rights-human
rights. There was never any ques-
ton in my mind in regard to this. I
did not purchase my freedom with a
price; was born free, and when, as a
younger woman, ! heard the subject
discussed, it seemed simply ridicnl-
Gus that any sensible, sane person
should question it. And when, later,
the phase Of woman's right to sui
rage came up, it was to me only
part of the whole, just as natural, just
as right, and just as certain to take
place.
sAnd whenever have been urged,
as q petitioner, to ask for this privi-
lege for woman, kind Of dazed, be-
wildered feeling has come over me.
"Of whom should ask this privi-
lege? Who possessed the right to
confer it? Who had greater right
than woman herself. Was it man,
and if SO, where did he get it? Who
conferred it upon him? He depend
ed upon woman for his being, his
very existence, nurture and roaring.
More fitting that she should have
conferred it upon him.
"Wasit governments? What were
they but the voice of the people?
What gave them their power? Was
it divinely conferred? Alas no; or
they would have been better, purer,
more just and stable.
"Was it force of arms-war? Who
furnished the warriors? Who but the
mothers? Who reared their sons and
taught them that liberty and their
country were worth their blood?
Who gave them up, wept their fall,
nursed them in suffering and mourned
them dead?
"Was it labor? Women have al
ways, as rule, worked harder than
men.
"What is capital? Woman has
furnished her share up to the present
hour. Who then can give the right,
and on what basis? Who can with
hold it?
elm regard to my nationality, I
was born in the old Huguenot town
Of Oxford, Mass, U. S. A. My
father and mother were born there.
My grandfathers and grandmothers,
with two exceptions, were born, lived
died and were buried there.

arch who denies the right of man to

l suspect that this is in effect what
woman is doing to-day. Virtually
there is no one to give her the right
to govern herself, as men govern
themselves by self-msde and self APP
proved laws OF the land. But in one
way or other, sooner or later, she is
coming to it. And the number of

DEATH OF AUSTIN BIDWELL.

Austin Bidwell, the youngest of the two
famous brothers, who perpetrated a
colossal fraud on the Bank of England,
by which they acquired IS 1000, 900 in cold
coin, died in this city last night of pneu-
mOnia.
The two Bidwells, Austin and George,
came to Butte a few weeks ago to sell
their book From Wall Street to New
gate via the Primrose Way and which
is a narrative of the transaction through
which the Bank of England suffered.
About a week ago Austin Bidwell be-
came i'll with la grippe, which a few days
later developed into pneumonia, resulting
fatally.
The deceased was 50 years of age and
was a native of Chicago, to which place
the remains will be shipped for inter-
ment. A brother resides in East Hart
ford, Conn.
The story of the Bidwells' escapade has
been often told, and the public is familiar
with 1t. The confinement they We're sub.
jected to in their % years in the English
prison undermined the constitutions OF
both and fastened the end of the mar
h osucumbed last night.
Tho remains are at Richards under

RESULT OF A FILTRATION.

The indiscretions of a young married
woman, whose name for the sake Of pos
slble domestic complications, is withheld,
were aired in the city police station this
afternoon. The woman in question is
good looking enough to be interesting.
She rooms in a West Galena street lodg-
ing house, n recently, without the
knowledge of her husband, attended a
dance, which, it is needless to say was
not graced by the presence of those who
move in the best circles. While there
she met a young man, whose name is
supposed to be Charles Edmonds, but
may be something else. She was indis-
Greet enough to indulge in a mild firta-
ton with him, and during the course of
the evening allowed him to take her we'd
ding ring. He escorted her home and the
friendship became warm and lasted sew
eral days, the young man visiting the
woman several times when her husband
/ was absent. On each occasion she asked
him to give her back her ring, and he
would put her off with some excuse, fin
! ally admitting that he had pawned it.
Then she caused his arrest, together
with that of a companion, who was some
what implicated in the exploit. He was
pu in Jail this morning and at the sug-
gestion of the young woman, whose repu-
tation was at stake, the officers offered tc
release Edmonds if he would return the
ring. This. through some friends, he did
and he was discharged.

Little Political Talk Heard on

SCHATZLEIN FOR MAYOR
His Friends Are Actively Working to
Secure Him the Nomination
.-Other Candidates.

Although there has been little talk Of
a political nature heard on the streets re-
Gently, the democratic and republican
leaders have not been idle, and are max
ing preparations for the municipal con-
test which will take place on the second
Monday in April. Both Of the old par
ties have issued calls for their primaries
and conventions. The caucuses of the
republicans will be held Monday even
ing next, the primaries ON the following
evening and the convention on the Satur-
day following.
During the past few days efforts have
been made to adjust the differences
which have existed for some time be-
tween the republicans of Butte. United,
the republicans can score a victory in
the spring campaign. The silver repub
licans will meet tonight and discuss the
matter, and it is said that plans will be
outlined which will be agreeable to both
wings.
The republicans nave an abundance of
good material in the matter of making a
selection for mayor. The friends OF
Charles Schatzlefn are very actively
working in his behalf. They emphasize
the fact that he is the logical candidate
Of the party for that honor, by reason OF
his long and alua BILE services to the city
as alderman, during which he organ
lied the fire department and performed
the duties of his office to the satisfaction
Of the taxpayers of the city.
The friends of Absalom F. Bray are
