EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Doubtless most Of you have read
in your newspapers within the last
few days of the death of Americas
grand old woman. Julia Ward Howe.
And by the obituary notices you
were doubtless reminded of Mrs.
Howe's having written the Battle
Hymn of the Republic" and of her
great service to the cause of Abolition.
happened to have the honor of
knowing Julia Ward Howe and Of
being occasionally received at her
home, and want to tell you the thing
that impressed me the most about
her. And that was, not the work that
she had accomplished, but simply the
wonderfully beautiful old age which
the quality of her life made possible
for her.
You cannot often say beautiful old
lady" and really mean it You could
of her. I never saw a young woman
who gave any more pleasure to the
eye than this exquisite old lady as she
held sway from her Throne Chair, "
as her visitors call it.
She almost always wore a lavender
gown and a white lace cap beneath
which her white hair was parted and
drawn softly back. Her hands and
face looked as if they were carved out
of ivory. Thomas Lawson, who paid
her a beautiful tribute at her death,
always made me think more of law
ender, ivory, old lace and things of
that sort.
But the really beautiful thing about
her was the wonderful expression of
that old face. You see Mrs. Howe
had never stopped really thinking,
never ceased being interested in
things. She has had a large family
and done her duty by them. A love

she had always had time to be inter
ested in the outside world. to study,
to read, to be thoroughly alive.
Mrs. Howe was 81 when she died,
and yet up to her last illness she wrote
little every day, read a little Greek
and Latin, and practiced at her piano
| Last spring there was some question
about the purity of the milk the Bos-
ton babies were getting, and it was
Julia Ward Howe's pen and presence
! that aroused the public to this serious
matter.
There is a little story about a por-
trait of Mrs. Howe. which her SON.
in-law John Elliott painted. without
which no tribute to her is complete
1t seems 20 me this illustrates heI
greatest service to American women.
| This portrait which represents Mrs
| Howe sitting in her morning room
reading, was exhibited at her son-in-
laws studio in Italy. Queen Mar
| gherita, who was at the exhibit. was
so impressed by this picture that she
would scarcely look at any other She
asked many questions about the orr.
ginal and as she was about to leave
| came to Mr.. Elliott and said. "YoJ
! tell me that this is a portrait of a dis
tinguished old woman of your country
but L tell you that it is a picture OF
| old age as it ought to be-"
It seems to me it isn't what julia
Ward Howe wrote or her work in tht
abolition cause that makes her sucf
a great figure. It is more the quail
| ity of her life-A life riDening int
| an old age that deserved such a tri
| butte as that-a life which stands as
/ pattern for that which. without neg

Governor James H. Brady was
in Coeur d'Alene last Friday even
ing conferring with prominent re-
publicans.
He said: "I have not visited
Idaho county since | have been
chief executive, and as | wanted
to see that county l came on to
kootenai. l will not make regu-
lar campaign during the primaries.
~ have performed the duties OF
chief executive to the best OF my
ability and have at least given the
people an honest administration.
l have visited every county in the
south end Of the state and fee
that there is absolutely no question
but that will receive a majorit,
at the primary election. Condi
tions in the north are much better
than I expected on account ol

Brady Makes Statement.

Favoring local option and the pres
ent local option laws and promising
to use his influence to support prohi--
bition wherever such is the will of
the people, Governor Brady, in
statement made to The Statesman
last week. outlines his views as to
the legislative needs OF the state at
the hands Of the Republican party.
Should the party decide that the
liquor traffic cannot be adequately
controlled through local option, Gov
ernor Brady states that he will exc
cute the will OF the people 10 the firm
belief that state wide prohibition,
backed by the party platform and the
votes OF the people can be successfully
enforced.
| The need OF the organization OF a
special non-partisan Carey act land
commission is also dwelt On together
with the necessity Of the passage ol
a law to prevent the members of such
a commission becoming in any man
ner interested IN Carey act lands.
The income. and Inheritance ia,
are briefly touched upon toRethe
with the necessity Of reorganization
OF the present tax system. Goot
roads and the conservation OF tn
natural resources of the state are en-
dorsed in whole and the grain com
mission law as passed by the las
legislature comes in for praise.
