MRS. NATION. Joint" sMAsHER.
WHAT KANSAS ENTHUSIAST THINKS ABOUT
HER MISSION. AND HOW THE REST
OF KANSAS VIEWS 1T

Topeka. Kan. Feb. (SpeciaD.-The newest thing
IN Kansas to-day is the woman with mission.
Such is Mrs. Carrie Nation. She comes not only
as reformer but a smasher, and she strikes
first with her tongue. and follows il with blows
from her hatehet. Her particularly strong point
Is Joint or saloon smashing From the western
line of the State TO Kansas City she has had a
conquertng march. and has sustained injuries
save blackened eve and a bruised shoulder She
says that her right hand is the hand OF the Lord
and that she has been advised of God to destroy
the rum traffic in the United States. In Wichita
and Enterprise and several other towns she has
entered the Joints and deliberately smashed and
destroyed the property of the Joint keeper Mrs.
Nation and her hatchet have caused CONSERVATION
TO the rum seller. but have also caused a serious
division in the ranks Of the temperance people
many OF whom do not approve of her methods.
or course, sooner or later every person who has

here last Saturday, but committed no overt act

She only went around and talked with the saloon
keepers; then she visited the Governor and roundy
abused him. and later rounded up the Attorney
General and the County Attorney She then went
10 a place supposed to be a Joint" and was as
sauted by woman. who hit her with a broom
stick
The State Temperance Union has been In session
during the week Mrs Nation was present. and
made a speech. which was received with applause
Money was raised 10 present TO her a gold badge
worth 800 inscribed To the Bravest Woman in
Kansas" Resolutions favoring her cause were
adopted after an acrimonious debate. One speaker
Thomas H. Balm, prominent temperance man OF
this city, was hooted and hissed from the stage
for objecting To her course as being revolutionary
and leading to anarchy and bloodshed. The con
vention condemned Governor Stanley severely for
not acting more vigorously in the cause Of tenn
perance.
Mrs. Nation was born in Kentucky Her maiden
name was Moore She lived near ex-senator Black
burns home, and was schOoImate of his Her
mother died in an asylum for the insane. her hal
lucination being that she was Queen Victoria Mrs
Nations home is in Western Kansas. Her
husband is a lawyer and she is a physician. Her
face ordinarily beams with good nature and she
has none Of the features of the warrior Her voice
too is pleasant listen TO in private conversation
She is OF medium height and her hair is becoming
gray.
Mrs Nation believes-and her husband so advises
her-that the property used in a Joint is used
contrary to law and that 70 destroy il is not only
break il up. That she believes in her mission as
thoroughly John Brown did in his one can
plainly discover in the looks and actions OF the
woman. She also has a belief that only through
her death by violence the hands OF the liquor
seller Will the Nation be aroused as to put an
end 10 the traffic. Mrs Nation is a good platform
speaker. a of than ordinary ability
and has fair education, coupled with the knoUr-
edge derived from extensive Bible reading Her
fame is extending beyond the borders OF Kansas
and gold badges and hatchets are brought to her
by every train
II is impossible 10 predict the outcome OF this
new phase Of radiCalism. 1t is epidemic In this
city IL Is surprising 10 the number OF law
abiding citizens who yielding 10 pleadings of
