what's the matter with Washing
tong?
To this query / can only answer,
Nothing" But if you ask me as 10
the Washingtonians that Is a different
proposition. We have a polyglot popu-
latiCn, kaleidoscopic in character and
maintaining standards which reach
back into ante-bellum conditions. and
into the active alertness Of modern
society. We are not a local city, in any
sense. but national in every sense, the
whole country is represented in the
numerous departments of the Govern
ment and the local shading of the va
rious States is largely reflected here
Suherance, Not Suffrage.
Thus the employees of the Government
while exercising the franchise at home,
also exercise a potent influence In the
Nations Capital, thus dominating the
social. commercial, and political stu
atfcn- and those TO the manner born are
citizens By sufferance and not by SUI
frage

a manufacturing center. Its glory was

can only be brought about by the Gu

Q united public voice
Citizens Should Unite.
We have too many conflicting organ
izations, too much clannishness and 10
,calisms. We should have one concrete
body 10 enforce public opinion and to
secure prompt and efficient recognition
This would in no wise dwarf or retard
the growth or influence of the city on
.4he contrary. commercial and financial
thrift would be stimulated by the in
creased population. and the best element
Of the American people would make this
their home.
The Government would naturally do
much 10 nationaliZe the movement Tor
a great opera house. Tor an art gallery,
and kindred institutions. National,
state ana city organizations would be
attracted, and Convention City" would
be added to Washington Beautiful
To accomplish all this il is incumbent
upon one and all to emerge out Of the
narrow confines OF iocalism, and rise
equal to the splendid opportunities Af-
forded us.
How this is to be done-by commission
or by suffrage-is immaferlaI. as long as
II is done; but neither the one or the
other can do it II we have the bicker-
ings and friction OF the hamlet Of the
backwoods.

WEALTH OF The PAST

Suit Many Things Which Had Been
Forgotten.

brings W. recollectiOns TO persons,
things and events which had been for
gotten for years and which are of in
terest though they have nothing to do
with the big dispute before the court.
The names Of the earliest pioneers are
recalled in some more or less remote
connection with some tract of land, as
4 point on which to fix the memory of
the witness. For instance the mention
of the name of Lord Duppa revived
stories which had been forgotten if
they had ever before been told. An
other old timer who has not been dead
so very many years, was alluded to in
the testimony of one witness yesterday,
William Il. Osborn. who led tempes-
tuous life on the coast beginning with
the advent of the argonauts.

help her, but she continued to grow
worse. Her body was a mass Of sores,
and her little face was being eaten
away. Her ears looked as if they
would drop off. Neighbors advised me
to get Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and
before 1 had used half Of the cake Of
Soap and box II Ointment the sores had
all healed. and my little ones face and
body were as clear as a newborn babes.

father of Mr.. Fowler was among the
first who arrived in the newly dis
covered gold fields of California. He
later brought his family to San
Francisco. In 1855 he left for the east
to settle up some unfinished business,
and his family never heard of him af-
terward. The most diligent inquiry
could uncover nothing Of his move
ments beyond his landing on the 18TH
mus of Panama.
His name could not be found on the
list of any of the steamers which had
sailed from the Isthmus for North
American ports and after the lapse of
a few years the mystery Of his disap-
pearance was accepted as insoluble.
The Fowlers at length came to
Phoenix where for the first time they
met Mr.. Osborn. He and the father of
Lincoln Fowler. though they had not
met in California spent a great many
hours together talking episodes Of
the coast of which they had a common
knowledge
One day Mr.. Fowler mentioned the
mysterious disappearance of his faith
er. Then came the solution of the
mystery. Mr.. Osborn said that he
sailed from the Isthmus in 1855 on the
steamer Central America for New
York. The vessel was wrecked off
Cape Hatteras and of the passengers
and crew only three beside Mr.. Osborn
were saved. He recalled that he had
formed the acquaintance Of a man by
the name Of Fowler who was on his
way from California. Their acquaint-
ance had become rather intimate in so
short time and Mr.. Osborn easily re-
membered him as one of the victims
OF the wreck. Mr.. Osborn was only
saved after floating about for forty
eight hours on hatch cover.
1t is said that more gold dust went
down with the Central America than
had ever before or has ever since been
carried on a single vessel.
Another of the pioneers whose name
has been recalled by witnesses was
the late Captain Sharpe. whose death
occurred only two or three years ago.
Captain Sharpe did not come to the
valley until about 1871 but he did not
feel like an utter stranger in a strange
land for he soon met Indians here
whom he had seen a score and a half
years before. He said that in 1S41 he
was a member of a trapping party on
the lower Rio Grande river in Texas
and New Mexico where he fell in with
party Of Maricopa Indians. Among
them was old Chief Juan and several
others whom the captain easily re-
membered and recognized.
