So is Kentucky lymph, and the reaction of the latter is quite as pronounced as the reaction of the former.” Granny Blair having been appoint ed minister to China, the Columbus Enquirer-Sun jubilantly remarks: Harrison deserves the thanks of a long-suffering people for getting Granny Blair out of the country.

It seems that the Fort Gaines branch of the Southwestern railroad is on the order of the Columbia Extension. The breaking of a few “stringers” and a few big damage suits may have the af fect to break the spirit of indifference in which these liue3 are regarded by the Central. The Macon Telegraph says It is a little remarkable that the Southern Al liance Farmer never lias a word to say about agriculture. As Capt. ilarry Brown nnd Col. Larry Gantt have only a vicarious interest in agriculture, they can not be expected to devote much space to it in the Alliance or gan.—Columbus Enquirer-Sun.

He says: The Atlanta Constitution is getting out a mighty fine paper these days, and shows that even the loss of such a inau as Grady can be replaced by brains and push.

Editor Triplett must find that the people of Iiis city dou’t move to suit him. Editor Triplett should pay a visit to Albany, the Queen of South west Georgia, and sec how “hustler* get there.” The Macon Telegraph pointedly says: “Alliance President Living ston, in his speech at Crawfordville Wednesday, announced that he was “for peace.” Just as his opponents are getting their batteries trained is indeed an opportune time to ciy “peace.” It looks more like a cry for quarter.” New YcTd World Mafor Buford, called, by way of em inence, “the Major,” was the most noted duelist of his day. A dead shot, a perfect master, of the fence, and in hisenemities utterly relentless, bis aim became a terror to all who knew him. In the midst of of admiring friends one day, the major was discussing of his last “affair,” and complacently ex plaining how it came that he bad only mortally wounded his adversary in- -tead of killing him on the spot, when one of two gettlemen standing within hearing suddenly advanced and struck him in the face. The spectators stood aghast. W hat could have tempted the stranger to rush thus madly on bis fate? He was an old man. Already, to appearance, had three years and ten passed over his head. He must have been weary of a life whose brief rem nant he was ready to cast away bo recklessly. The m?t jor was astonished. The very audacity of the outrage struck him with amazement. “Is this provocation sufficient, or must I repeat it?” inquired his assail ant. The major’s first Impulse was to re turn blow for blow. But fierce and violent as were his passions, he had schooled himself to complete mastery over them, and a moments reflection told him how bootless under the cir cumstances, would be a public brawl, The indignity he received would admit of but one reparation, and that he de^ termined to lose no time in seeking.” The insult is sufficient, he answer ed, with forced calmness. “Oblige me by naming a friend—for your own name I care not—to whom I may refer one of my own.” Tiiis gentleman,” replied the other, resuming the arm of his companion, “will return here in an hour to confer with any one you may designate.” And the two strangers took their leave together. At sunrise on the following morning the principals aud their seconds made their appearance on the ground select ed. No one else was present, not even a surgeon. The major, in his past ex perience, never had needed one; and his opponent, it was, plain was careless ot consequences, There was no necessity for delay. The preliminaries had all been settled. The parties were to fight with pistols at ten paces, the combat to continue till one or both had fallen. One con dition had been insisted upon by the stranger, which ealled an indignant blush to the major’s cheek, as It seemed to imply an imputation upon his honor, though he submitted to it with the best grace he could. It was that, before placiug the combatants, the bodies of both should be inspected, to see that no secret protective device was employed by either. The ground was measured and the men placed. There was a marked con trast between the two in more respects than that of years. The old man erect and motionless as a statue, his whitened locks floating in the breeze, never once looked toward his antagonist, towards whom liis side was turned. His face was stern and determined, but had nothing malignant in it. The major, on the other hand, glared fiercely on his foe, seeming even to grudge the few moments yet eked out to him. “Were he my own father, 1 would kill kim!” he said audibly replying to some whispered expostulation of his second, who was evidently touched by the old man’s venerable apnearauce. The pistols were put in the hands of the principals aud the giving of the word was explained. “Gentlemen, are you ready?” “Ready,” both answered. • Still the old man moved not, nor did he direct a single glance at Ills adver sary. His eyes were fixed in front. His attitude was one of rapt attention. He seemed like one listening intently. “Fire!” Without changing the direction of his gaze, or other movement than that of his arm, which rose with the precis ion and steadiness of a nicely adjusted machine, the old man brought h:s pis tol to the level of his enemy's breast. For an instant he held it there. Still no look in the direction it pointed. Still the same apperffrance of eager lis tening. The major was In no hurry. He could afford to take his time with a man who held his pistol at random, without' looking whitherward. He took deliberate aim. He was deter mined to make sure work. If his ball missed his adversary’s heart, though but tlie fraction of an inch, he would never make pretension to skill again. The sharp report of the stra pistol was followed by a conv jerk of the major’s arm, causing th* discharge of his weapon far wkle of it- mark while he. staggering a few Again I succeeded. I learned to take aim with the ear instead of: the eye. When I heard you answer ‘Beady !* to-day, I knew the exact direction In which to point my pi-*?ol as well as if AT WAR. I bad seen you. • Besides, I ^pnld ^ ar you breathing ^ where you stood. You lost vour only chence by delaying your fire ” More than once the major looked appealingly into the speaker’s face; but io those remorseless, sightless eyes, there was no gleam of sympathy. And as Ihe labored breathing grew fainter and (ainter. the old man resumed his listening attitude. At last all wrf still. “He Is dead!” and it* wonted ex- prestjon nf sob**r m**lancholiy settled again on the old man's face, a-*, taking his companion’s arm. he turned ami walked leisurely away. ms ATOSKMKSr CUM ULLTE. A maataaw Siorlctnan Will Wed Ibe Woman He Widow* d. Pittsburg Times. For several days Mrs. George Hark- nes3 has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Sarah Burton, of Bennett, and last night she left lor her home in Jersey City, where she will be married next week to a man who was the cause^of her first husband’s death. Mrs. Hark- ness is a good-looking b’onde about twenty-eight or thirty years of age, and the tinge of romance that clings around her life makes her story inter esting to even the matter of fact read er. She and her sister, Mrs. Burtoa, were the daughters of an English sea- captain, who«e vessel was wrecked off the coast of Maine *n 1»67. Their fa ther was drowned and Mrs. Harkness was adopted by Samuel Ward, a mer chant or Dover, N. H. In 1S80 the young woman eloped with George Harkness, the son ot a Boston tailor. Yoqng Harkness was not liked by Ward, who refused to forgive his adopted child. Harkness took his wife to Jersey City a couple of years later and placed her in charge of an auur, while he continued on to the Northern Pennsylvania oil fields. Just before sun-rue one morning id the latter part of August, 1883, the %>dy of a young man was found lying on the porch of an unfinished building in Garfield, Warren county, Pennsylvania. Gar field was the % center of the kallede- scopic Cherry "Grove oil field, which was filled with the scum of the oil country, and foul play was suspected. A coroner’s Inquest showed that the neck of the young man was broken. Papers In his possession showed his name was George Harkness. No one knew where he came from. He h n d no friends, and a verdict of accidental death was rendered. Mrs. Burton, wjio told the story, continued: “Several weeks, later my sister received an anonymous letter containing $100. The letter stated that the writer had been indirectlv re sponsible for h<*r husband's death and that ^he should not want as long a« she lived. Every month she received from $50 to $100 and an anonymous letter. They were mailed first from Garfield, then Bradford, Pa., Pittsburg, Chicago, and finally they came for three years from Montana. In 1888 she received one mailed at Jersey City, and then they came again from Montana. Six months ago the writer requested an interview. It was accorded. He proved to be a tall, handsome, futi-beardeU man of thirty-eight or forty. He told how Harkness was in a gambling room on the second floor of the building, where he was killed, and had been knocked out of a window during a fight between the speaker and a stranger. He said ills name was James Henderson, and that he had tried to atone for the ac cidental killing of narkne3 by keeping hi* wife from want. He i» now a stockman in comfortable circumstances in Montana, and the rest yon know. His attoncment will soon be com plete. backward fell heavily to the ground. * ** “ Id •* " the old Rvpcblican editors are.trying to chuckle over Editor Dana’s sneering references to “Hangman Cleveland.” He made a good Sheriff, as he made a goxl President, and the American people have placed it to his credit. Mr. Cleveland’s enemies should try to re member that he has been in tlie habit of regarding public office as a public trust.—Columbus Enquirer Sun. “United we stood, divided we are fal’ing,” would be an appropriate motto for the Farmers’ Alliance to fly unt'l it begins to pay more attention to matters pertaining to farming and less to politics.—Brunswick Times. The above suggests that the present object of the Southern Alliance Far mer Is to instruct its readers in the art of disrupting the organization and al lowing the farmer to get along as best he can—agriculturally. Editor Shaver, of the Chattanooga Evening News, is a great student of human nature. He says: AXvoman is naturally of an econom ical turn of mind. An Atchison man paid a plumbers’ bill of $9 because his wife had taken the covering off the hydrant that he put there to keep the pipes from bursting, to wrap around a 15-cent rose bush. She rather over did the tiling, but the economy was tin re all the same. The Americus Recorder unwittingly falls into error when It says “on Mon day of next week the Georgia Chau tauqua will open its third annual ses sion at Albany, our sister-city.” It is not so much an error but it is calculat ed to be misleading. The special seliools will open on that day, but the assembly proper for the entertainment of the public will not begin exercises until Monday, the 29th inst. At that time we hope to see a large attendance aad there must be, lor the great treats prepared will certainly attract the multitudes. ‘Conduct me to him,” sail man to his friend. The latter took his principal’s arm, and led him to tiie prostrate form ot the major, whose second, kneeling by liis side, had tom open bis garments, exposing a fatal wound in his breast made by the stranger’s bullet. “Is your friend seriously hurt?” coolly inquired the latter. “You cau see for yourself, sir,” the second answered. “You are in error,” replied the other; “I am totally blind.” The wounded man (who had by tlii* time revived a little) and his friend looked at the stranger in astonishment. There was no visible defect In his or gans of vision; but there was a fixity of look—that “Lending of the eyes on vacancy”—which so unmistakably evinces the abseuce of sight. “Who are you ? and what was your motive in seeking this encounter?” the major faintly murmured. “First, are you in a condition to re new it?” iuquired the stranger. “There is no need—I am dying. “When I have told yon who I am,” tho stranger resumed, “you will scarce require to he told my motive for what l have done. No wonder you have forgotten James Merton,” he contin ued : for he is greatly changed, no doubt.” The dying man started, and groaned bitterly. “But I have never forgotten you, Richard Buford, nor the injuries you_ have done me. A cherished daughter," the pride of my eyes, and the joy of her mother’s heart, you enticed from her home; deceived by a sham mar riage and then abandoned to die of a broken heart.

V*., Feb. 24.— The worst of the’ flood is now oyer. The Ohio has fallen two feet and by to-night shall have receded from the hvt-iuess aud factory sections of the city. The riv^r sidels still inundated and but few families will be able to return to their homes for two weeks. The loss to the railroads is very great. All of them are badly crippled and in some cases it will take several week’s work to repair the damages that have been done. No mails have been received for five days. The post office was flooded half way up to the letter boxes, and the newspaper offices had four feet of water in them. In the Ohio Valley not less than 15,000 men have been thrown ont of employ ment. This will entail great suffering. A close ob server who has passed through the im mediate district estimates the los3 at $4,000,000. Only two cases of drowning are re ported, Wm. Powell, who lived near Ben wood, and narry West gate, whose home was at Lorch, on the Ohio side of (he river.

This much being understood at the start, the Tribune may doubtless b3 permitted to express Its candid belief that there Is no further profit to the Republican party in training its cam paign guns upon the incidents in the past history of the country and the sub- j°ct8 of much contemporaneous Repub lican oratory enumerated: 1. The War of the Rebellion. The war is over. 2. The Solid South. The unfortu nate condition of things in that section does not properly give license to dema gogic appeals to prejudice in the North. 3. The Bloody Shirt. The day of this garment's usefulness as a political ar gument has gone by. 4. The Cobdea Club. The bugaboo of British gold In American elections has been seen so often that It doesn’t frighten anybody now.

Atlanta, Feb. 22 —The Southern Alliance Farmer again devotes its fire i*sur, or very neir’y. to Governor Northen and tlie meeting li» M at the executive mansion when that paper was condemned* The Alliance Farm er i* fighting for its life, and, very naturally, fights as hard as it can. It promises the pub!ic faithfully, how* ever, to give It a rest henceforth—or, at least, for a time. It says: “We have had our say about that ex ecutive mansion caucus. After this issue we close the matter, and will de mand that it be settled by the proper tribunal.” This promise comes in good time, for the present i-sue wring* tlje sub ject pretty dry. After presenting the following card from Gov. Northen, the editor 'devotes the better part of a page to answering it: gov. nokthkn’s card. “Editors Southern Alliance Former: “It Is not uiy purpose to bandy words with you. In recent issues of your paper you have made many statements, with which you have connected my name, that are untrue. I ask space in your next Isa le to deny some of them. “1. It has been long known to a great many Alliancemeu that there are. In the public mind, many grave charges agaiust the character and the conductor some prominent officials in the Alliance. The recent conference of Allianceinen, held in this city, met to determine the best means for inves tigation and establishing these charges in order to rid the Alliance of the odium they are bringing upon all its members. “2. The conference in question was composed ot true and pronounced AI- liaucemen. Every man in the con ference is an Aliianceiuan, earnestly seeking the good of the order. “3. The conference was, in no sense, political. There were members pres ent who held different views on what were known as political Issues in this Stite.* These gentlemen were all agreed in believing there is corruption iu high places in the Alliance, and they are determined, to so charge be fore the proper tribunal at the proper time. ‘4. Tlie action of this conference Is, in no’Vay, a fight ou the Alliance, and it cannot, possibly, be so constructed. It is a fight by true AUiaocemeu for the preservation of the Alliance, and to condemn your paper is not fighting the Allllance. The Alliance is far more important than your paper. Mr. Livingston is not the Alliance. Any charges made against Mr. Liv ingston for corruption, would not be charges against the Alliance. Mr. Copeland is not the Alliance. Charges made against Mr. Copeland can not be called, in any sense, charges made against the Alliance, as Mr. Copeland is not the Alliance. 1 Mr. Daniel is-not the Alliance. If any man attack Mr. Daniel he is not attacking the Alliance. “These men are nothing more than the hired si rvants ot the Alliance. As such some oi them will be called to ac count by the Alliance in its properly ordered machinery for some of their bad conduct. Does any roan hold that the minis ter is the church? If the minister should be charged with corruption can the church afford to Indorse him, ab solutely stifle the investigation of tbe crime? Such a church would present a strange spectacle before the people. Just so it must be with tlie Alliance. The Alliance cannot afford to suffer under these charges against its officials and indorse them without investiga tion. Wiiy.are you seeking an in dorsement before an investigation is had, if the charges aie not true? Let me say iu conclusion, that at tie proper time and before the proper tribunal charges will be preferred and specifications wilt !>* submitted. No amouut of bluster or .brayado or false statement will prevent the carrying out of the purposes agreed upon. The Alliance is a grand conception. Its principles command the admiration and respect of every good citizen. We cannot afford to see the organization go down under charges that are not answered. Good men in the order are determined to rescue the Alliance from the dangers that threaten it. ‘•Rest assured, the hour for judg ment is coming. No amount of ‘in dorsements’ can stop it. W. J. Northen.” THE EDITOR’S ALLEGED KEI'LY, Tlie editor’s reply U entirely too verbose for reproduction but its gen eral style and-manner may be inferred from the opening paragraphs, which contain a very ortgiual idea, by the way: Whom the gods would destroy they fir.-t make mad.' That-our gov ernor is enraged, it don't take a very discerning peason to discover. “When a fellow invites himself into another's house, and proceeds at once to accuse his host with lying, and be gins to abase and villlfy every member of the family, it is m order to invite bim ont at the toe of yonr boot. “This is just what W. J. Northen has done with the Southern Alliance Farmer; He asks admittance Into oar columns, begins his letter by accusing us of publishing things that are not true, and wiuds up by suspending a sword of Damocles over tbe heads of leaders and defenders ofonr order. 1 There are some other paragraphs of interest in this issue of the Southern Alliance Fanner which pays its res- specis to pretty nearly every one out side the Livingston ring. AFTER BURKS’ SCALP. The resignatien of Secretary Barks is demanded, because of his opposition, and in the event of declining to resign Livingston is called on to suspend him. Then follows this rare paragraph: “This doty, painful as it may be, the AUiancemen of Georgia expect and demand of their president, and know ing the firm and loyal character of Col. Livingston, as we do, we feel assured that he will need no further urging. He asked the resignation of State Lec turer Beck, and his offense against the peace and unity of tbe Alliance was not of near so grave a character as that of Secretary Burks.’ ” A NOT OYER CORDIAL WELCOME. ' Capt, Brown’s paper does not seem Fro a the Glohe-Feaocrat. Yesterday in Clark county, several miles back of Jeffersonville, Judge Weir received a message requesting his presence at the hamlet of Blue Lick to marry a couple. He at once mounted aad started, hut was greatly impeded’ by the swollen streams that lay a«‘: his path. When he reached Blue Lick creek he found that ordinarily placid stream a raging, roarring torrent, 1m- Tw* Hnidred F*et of Water Cacnat Nej stale Two Tree JLsveri* While trying to devise some plan to get across, there was a clatter of hoofs on the opposite side of the stream, and in a momeuta horse was pnlled up on the edge of the water.

Philadelphia Record. No little sensation has been created by the deebion of Judge Mitchell in a note case, and it will give the lawyers plentyBf work. It is thought that the case should be appealed to the supreme court, so as to Secure' a further decis ion. A dispatch to the New York Sua from Wells boro says: WHAT DOES IT MEAN? From the time that the memory of man runneth not to the contrary^ all blank legal documents In Pennsylvania have borne a familiar sign or symbol immediately following the blank space where a signature is to be written. William Bradford in his Philadelphia printing shop in the days of Penn, “set It up” by iuclcsing it in a border oi **2-em braces,” and the printer of to day has not changed the device. Here it is: How to Keep Irish Potatoes. Mficon Telegraph. The increase in the price of Irish po tatoes has induced many of our people to plant for the Northern markets. This increase of price Is due to tbe McKinley bill, which protects onr markets against Canada. In potato culture, it must be remem bered that to produce marketable po tatoes Western seed must not be plant ed. Experience teaches that only Eas tern varieties will do. After the plants are well up out of the ground, it is usual, in cultivation, to draw dirt to them. But in the sec ond plowing care must be taken not to dirt tbe vines. Potatoes make near the top. and if dirt is thrown to the vines after they begin to bear, the po tatoes will decay, aud a new crop form nearer the surtace—thus produc ing late potatoes. But the new grower wants to knotif how to keep fioiatoes. Some time since I was traveling with an elderly geutleman (known as the founder ol the city of Albany, Ga.,) and he remarked, “I never could keep Irish potatoes. I do not know the rea son why. 1 am careful, too, to let them dry in the sun before packing them.” This was the mistake. The secret is to not let the sun shine on them. Suu- iight turns them green and superin duces decay. Several years since I grew potatoes for market, it so happened that a Io*. cabin was In the center of my patch. In harvesting time, laborers turnished with ordinary cotton-picking sacks followed the plow*, and the potatoes were assorted as taken from tho fur row,. Tbe ..sacks' were taken to the caoin and einptieiC The potatoes were allowed to remain in the banks, already assorted, two or three days, so as to undergo a heat or “sweat.” Then they were ready for barreling. In the absence of a cabin, any struct ure will do that will exclude the sun light. I have kept potatoes In the manner described from season to season. O' course the barrels must be ventilated. If it is desired to grow a fall crop, plant the small potatoes without cut ting them. Our falis are usually dry, and if the potatoes are cut they are likely to decay for want of moisture. J. C.

AMERICANISMS. The Carrie** G*e of Word* InU Which We Hare Drifted. H For nearly 300 years the honest yoe- man of Pennsylvania has gazed on that mysterious device with awe as he has affixed his signature to that P^nn sylvania instrument of legal torture^ the cut-throat note, and won Jure J wherein lay iu wonderful answer; for ft bad early been impressed upon him that a document on which he had written his oame without that symbol following it was not worth tbe ink the name was written with. He wondered the more because the potency of the symbol did not depend on its being an impression from type, but was just as biudlug and full of awe it made with a pen In scrolls and “curley-kews” ac cording to the skill or fancy of the writer. NOT A LEGAL SEAL. These Initials and their scroll or bor der were among the most sacred and reverend of the Pennsylvania lawyer’s accessories to the mystification of his client, both before and after- tbe tact, that tradition had bequeathed to him. There is not a deed or a mortgage or like document on the records or 'n the strong boxes or vaults oi the state upon which this devicedoes not appear. Bat now comes Judge Mitchell of (he Tioga county court, and in a case tried before him to recover on a judgment note, on which the signature was followed by the time-honored L. S. and its scroll, decides that the scroll Is not a legal seal nor a seal at all, as It has always been accepted, and that consequently the note Is not a valid document, and can not bind its maker. ONLY A PRINTER’S MARK. Judge Mitchell held that the letters L. S. are simply what the Latin words they abbreviate mean—locus segeli, “place of the seal”—and that they are nothing more nor lesa than the prin ter’s mark denoting where the seal should be placed, ihe same hs if the words “affix seal here'* had been used instead. This decision is liable to make some thing of a stir in legal and financial circumstances in the Keystone state, lor if it is sound and sustained there is not a note in rhe state that will be worth In law the paper it is written on, and (here nre a good many hundreds of thousands of dollars depending on the stability ol the cut-throat judgment noteiu Pennsylvania. Judge Mitchell does not decide that tbe ancient|sym- bol is not good on deeds or morgages, but if it is simply the ‘’place of the seal” on a note it certainly cannot be anything more on other documents. From the New York Ledger. Of course, the English language is often incorrectly spoken inEpgland as well as in this country, but, to be profitable, criticism, like charity, ought to begin at home. That we are improving, no one will dispute whose memory goes back for a generation, but it will do us no harm to recall certain words and phrases still carreut among us for which there is really -do justification. Why, for in stance, do we now “Inaugurate” what ever we do not “initiate,” apparently without any idea of what the words signiry ? Why do we so often “com mence” when we begin? Why do we give “ovations” to people, evidently not having rotten eggs in mind ? Why do we call an edition of a newspaper an “issue,” as if It were something that could be healed? Why do we have “re citals” of music on a pianoforte; when we do not speak of playing pictures on on a canvas? Why do we say “ain't” for “isn’t,” and “don't” for “doesn’t?” Why do we “indorse” anything except com mercial paper and legal documents? Why do we say “square” meal, when “round” used to be the epithet for things that are perfect and honest and admirable? Why do we assert that we “have got” a thing, when “have” will suffice, and why do we make the pleon asm worse by the affectation of cor rectness—“gotten!” Why for “sta tion” or “railway station” do we sub stitute“depot,” which is neither En glish or French ? On what ground do we declare that we do not “feel like” doiug something, meaning that we are not inclined to do fit ? One may feel like an ass, but how can one feel like doing, or, worse, like eating something? Sometimes one even hears the phrase: “Do you feel like beefsteak?” How, pray, does a beefsteak feel ? Why should we use “ever so much” for “very much,” or describe a man as “perfectly lovely?” In English the adverb “quite” means “entirely,” “completely;” but when we say that 6ome one is “quite well,” we mean not that he Is perfect ly but only tolerably well. We even see in America the phrase, “quite number of persons,” as if one number was not as much of a number as an other. We talk of a “prominent” cit izen, intending to describe him not as protuberant, but simply as eminent. Then, again, we ask a friend to “come round” to-morrow, though he may have to come straight across the street. We say: “You are hereby notified,” inatead of: “It is hereby notified to you,” and we speak of a fact “transpiring,” as if a fact'were endowed with an aparatns for breath ing. Why do we deem it elegant to say that a thing was “intimated,” when wo mean that it was said? And why do we tiink it sounds fine to speak of a thing being “definitely arranged,” when we mean that it was definitely or finally settled.” The answer to most of these ques tions is obviously that such mistakes are made by persons who do not r - member, or who have not reflected on the etymology of the words mentioned, which, of course, supplies tbe key to their true meaning and right use.

Topeka, Kas., Feb. 27.—One little woman, weight 105, height sixty-one inches, runs the lower house of the Kansas legislature. This little woman, whose husband’s name is Diggs, and a large woman of the name of Lease made speeches all over the State until Senator Ingalls found himself without a defender among the agriculturists. There was something nearer to the hearts of these two women than the defeat of Ingalls and rebuke to the Republican leaders. It was a move to interest the women in politics and pave the way for female suffrage. It all came about so naturally that the poli ticians wonder why they did not see It sooner. ~ Now the women ace running every thing. Mrs. Annie Diggs is a member of the Alliance legislative committee. She was appointed by the Alliance caucus to advise tlie legislators, and she speaks as one having authority. She claims to represent the women in the Alliance, jind her word is law. To refuse her request means social boy cott. She sits in the lqbby and ad vises represenutives by note what to do and when to do it. She prepared tlie bill which confers on women - the right to vote ancl hold office. Although many of the Alliance legislators op posed ft, not one dared to vote against it, and it received just as many votes as did Judge l’efFer fot Uuited States Senator. She prepared a bill making it the duty of the governor to appoint two women on every State board of five persons charged with the manage ment of educational and charitable in stitutions, and every Alliance legisla tor voted for it. The Alliance legisla tors were inclined to favor a resubmis sion of the prohibitory amendment, but Mrs. Diggs, as representative of the women in the Alliance, promptly checkmated any such move. The women of Kansas extended a latent influence in the lost election. The girls refused to recognize their sweet hearts unless they joined the re form movement, and the wives imposed a social boycott on the wives who did not make a fight on the . plutocrats. The women furnished the enthusiasm, of tbe campaign. They boycotted country merchants who refused to support Alliance candidates and would not permit the Republican country newsprper to come into tbe house. As a reward for all tnis service they demanded a representation in Topeka and selected Mrs. 'Diggs. Mrs. Lease was kept on'the road as a lecturer. While Mrs. Diggs is the only author ized representative of the Alliance wo men she has any number of assistants. The wives of the members fill the lob bies and galleries. They are all poli ticians and take a lively interest in the legislation of all kinds. In Mrs. Diggs they hsve the greatest confidence and render any assistance In their power. It Is a remarkable fact that notwith standing tbe bitter feeling which the campaign has engendered the women who are working in this state for the removal of political disabilities from the women, do not let politics come in the way of success. In the senate Mrs Laura Johns, of Atcbinson, is work ing,' through the senators’ wives, much after the way of Mrs. Diggs io tbe bouse. She is uot authorized to speak for the women of her party as is Mrs. Diggs, and she does not have as much )ersonal influence, but for all that she s a successful lobbyist. ^Iu the last campaign Mrs..

A large majority of the republican leaders in this state are woman suffragists because it sounds irogressive and is In line with the lansas idea.

At VVasbing- ton Mrs. Drlggs will have the united support of the Alliance senator and Alliance Congressmen lrom this state in booming her woman’s suffrage ideas. Judge Peffer, in his speech to the house after his electioa, stated that the millennium would never come until women are placed on a complete social equality with men. Like all the Alli ance leaders, he has found it impossi ble to to counter to the wishes of tbe women, who, in reality, give the party its strength before the people.” An Attractive - d POCKET AT.mVAn and MEMORANDUM ROOK teen kegs of nails have been made, twelve bales of cotton have been taken from the fields and tbirtr-six bushels of grain have eone Into 149 gallons of spirits, while $66 of gold have been dug from the earth.
