T. Bank Robbery. ~ 81 =.
CHICAGO, July 2o.-Big Ed Rioe. who
with Jimmie Hope and Big Frank Mccoy
robbed Northampton, Mass. bank Of
q. 600 900 in 1877. has been driving q wagon
for one Of the downtown retail houses dur
ing the late teansters strike.
Lieut.. Madden Of tho Central station said
to-day:
we have known for some time that Rice
was hero. Detectives picked him up and
he accounted for himself as being out Of all
crooked work and was let 60. but a close
eye was kept on him.
while Rice Is getting on in years he
looks husky and appears to Be able to take
care Of himself. He can stay in Chicago
so long as he behaves himself, and under
st and that he does mean to behave; that
he has passed UP all his lavbreahng.'
Rico in his days Of crime was known as
one Of the cleverest bank thieves and con-
fidence men in the United States. He
helped Hohan rob the Bank Of Halifax.
N. s., Of $4,000, but his big exploit was
his companionship with the men who
planned the Northampton robbery, for
which he never was punished. Hope and
Mccoy died last month, but Rice lives to
handle the reins at - per day. He ap-
peared In Chicago several months ago.
When the strike situation grew bad and
teamsters were badly needed he applied
for drivers position, and secured It without
his employer knowing who he was.

LONDON, July 2o.-sMost sssuredly the
Unionist party Is perishing under the treat
ment 1t has received and Ia receiving from
Mr.. Balfour' Mr.. Chamberlain and those
who support them. Every month that
passes makes It's condition worse. Indeed
1t 10 hardly too much to say that II Balfour
contives by Parliamentary fnesse and
because Of the unwilling ness Of bis sup
porters to face the painful but salutary
operation Of dissolution to keep In power

Thus speaks the Spectator In an article
headed -The Ruin Of the Unionist Party
This weighty conservative organ Is un-
douhtedly much Influenced y It's strong
opposition to Mr.. Chamberlain tariff
reform, but In drawing up an indictment
against the present Government 1t makes
strong case against 1t.
1t cannot be denied that Balfour's ad-
ministration has left the impression Of
want Of dignity and oandor In the general
conduct Of affairs. especially In such matters
as tho Irish administration and the redis-
trihution Of seats. Tho effect Of its dealings
with tho army have been little short Of
disastrous. The upper ranks Of the regular
army arc distracted and disoontentsd. 1t
is an open secret that there are piles Of
officers designations at the War Office
which 1t cannot. it dare not, accept. The
state Of affairs In the militia volunteers "
equally bad. but It Is not necessary to take
In detail the causes Of the Governments
undisguisable unpopularity.
1t Is through the enormous importance Of
the foreign policy. with Europe as 1t now
Is In the melting pot, that Balfour has
chung to office. 1t is true that England's
foreign policy Is to an enormous extent
continuous. and II the Opposition came
into office tomorrow. 1t would be carried on
on the present lines. but 1t is equally true
that European Chancelleries do not feel
this way and changes Of for eign Ministers
In England would inspire them with q
feeling Of insecurity and instability which
would be very detrimental to the interest
Of the British Foreign Office.

WOMEN IN POLITICS.
Public Service Helps Woman to
he Better,

he Better.
Mrs. Adelia B. Scott of Idaho says
| politics does not detract from the
the home-loving qualities of a wo.
man but rather adds to them. Mrs
Scott has held many positions and
has been benefited by her expert
ence.
"A woman can be better mother
for being i'm politics. Woman's at
tention to politics does not mean wo-
mans neglect of home Politics is
school an education ot woman"
That is the opinion of Mrs. Adelia
b. Scott official hostess of the Idaho
building at the fair. and she is COM
petent to speak, says the Podtland
Journal. Mrs Scott is perhaps the
most prominent woman in Idaho and
her political record is enough to place
her in the front ranks of the women
of the country. She was the first
woman i'm Idaho elected to office out
side of the educational department
and was on the Idaho Falls school
board eight years. and was clerk five
years.
For two years she was justice of
the peace, SO some people call her
judge. She declined denomination
but was soon after appointed by the
county commissioners to the position
she had refused to compete for.
Then when the police judges chair
became empty she was asked by the
mayor to sit there. and last fall she
was elected county treasurer of Bing-
ham County. But through it all she
has kept her head and she says that
her political experience has benefited
her
"Of COURSE" she says II have felt
a great responsibility sometimes in
holding office, for knew that I owed
a duty to those who had enough con-
fidence in me to elect me. But I
know it has done me much good and
given me broader view of life.
"A woman should study politics
more than she ordinarily does. She
ought to know the government under
which she is ruled and woman suf-
frage obliges her to study it. I knew
very little about political subjects for
merly. but when | became Interested
in equal suffrage I studied them.
MY father was democrat, and
SO had always called myself one.
but when | studied the platforms the
republican appealed to me as being
better and | have since been one. NV
father used to say to me that a son
or daughter need not be a horsethief
because the father was. But that
does not mean that my father was
horethief, or that democrats are.
either
Mrs. Scott is delightful woman,
and all who know her in the Idaho
building are charmed with her man
ner.
