Probably not one-third of the women of the country desire to vote. Governor Shallenberger has almost completely recovered from the shock sustained when he heard of the deci sion as to the legality of the bank guaranty law. But some of the other advocates of the Oklahoma idea arc still wailing in the sob squad. The action of the democrats in con gress calls to mind the almost forgot ten fact that in 1844 the "great tariff reform party" violated its promise and voted, as dictated to by New England, New York and Pennsylvania, against downward revision. Ou May 6, 1884, under the leadership of Raudall, forty two democracts declared, by their vote that they were in favor of the protect ive tariff as advocated by the New England representatives and senators. The census will be taken next year and guesses as to the number of people in the United States are now in order. The returns will no doubt show that the population to be about ninety millions. The first census was taken in 1800. The number of inhab itants at that time was 5,308,483 and the center was 23 miles east of Balti more. During the next one hundred years the population increased to 7C, 303,387, and its center had moved to a point six miles southeast of Columbus Indiana. If there ever was any serious per sonal difference between Senators Bur kett and Brown, the hatchet has been interred, and they will act in harmony in dispensing the political patronage at their disposal. In acting in har mony the senators have "shut out" the republican members of the house from Nebraska in the selection of census enumerators. The senators have agreed on the appointment of Jack Hayes of Central City as superintend ent of enumerators for the Third con gressional district. The members of the conference com mittee that will consider the tariff bill, a Washington dispatch says, have "already been decided upon," and from the make up of the committee the republicans of the middle west will have only one representative. Unless President Taft calls Aldrich and Payne to. the White House and gives them to understand that he will veto any tariff measure hostile to the re publican platform, the interest of the consumer will not be considered by the conference committee. THE NINETY AND NINE. The other day we called attention to the fact that, while Senator Aid rich cannot be excused for his ruthless disregard of public sentiment on tariff legislation, yet he is not the only mem ber of the United States senate who should be held responsible for the in iquitous bill which he is trying to shoulder onto the country. If the bill passes congress it must receive the af firmative votes of a majority of the reaabers of both houses and the sen ators and representatives who vote for it will be at least particeps criminis to the disgraceful attempt to permit the great'saaaufacturing interests to ex tort excessive profits from the masses of the people. Carrying our declarations in regard to this condition one step further we are able today to present for public consi deration the names of those senators who hare helped Senator Aldrich carry oat his outrageous program. We have selected at random from the Congressional Record the roll calk oa eight tariff bill schedules, for the purpose of showing who stands with Aldrich and who against him. The articles in question were sugar, lead, eartiieaware, iroa ore, pig iron, cotton, cattery and lumber. When these schedules were considered mostly at widely. ' varying dates there were 1 twenty-three Republicans in the senate I ZBBsssla VflMNUnwli ("bs4?0bbb BIT BflU99flB0B 9HpHIi BjBS BbMBsmBsbV - who voted, with Aldrich on evevy roll call. Besides these, there were fifteen Republicans who voted with Aldrich most of the time, failing to do so only when absent or paired, and never, at any time, voting against him. It is well that the names of these men be prominently displayed, that the public may know them and resaeaiber in the days to come that they are the people who are responsible for the tariff bill. The first group, compris ing the twenty-three who were never absent and never wavered, are as follows: Brandegee of Connecticut. Brigga of New Jersey. Bornham of New Hampshire. Burrows of Miobigao. Carter of Montana. Dixon of Montana. Flint of California. Gallinger of New Hampshire. Guggenheim of Colorado. Hale of Maine. Heyburn of Idaho'. "Keen of New Jersey. Lodge of Massachusetts. Oliver of Pennsylvania. Page of Vermont, Penrose of California. Perkins of California. Piles of Washington. Root of New York. Scott of West Virginia. Smoot of Utah. Stephenson of Wisconsin. Wettnore of Rhode Island. The other group consists of senators who are just as guilty as the twenty three. They are assembled in a separ ate list simply because circumstances were such that they happened at dif ferent times, to be absent or paired when the roll was called. Had they been present they would have voted with Aldrich, and it is noteworthy that when present and voting they never cast their ballots in opposition to the party boss. These fifteen are the following: Bradley of Kentucky. Bulkeley of Connecticut. Clark of Wyoming. Crane of Massachusetts. Cullom of Illinois. Depew of New York. Dick of Ohio. Dillingham of Vermont. Elkins of West Virginia. Frye of Maine. Nixon of Nevada. Smith of Miohigan. Sutherland of Utah. Warner of Missouri. Warren of Wyoming. These two groups have given Aid drich absolute control of thirty-eight votes in the senate, which, with his own, have made thirty-nine votes which he could count upon positively for every emergency. Of course, this is not a majority, for there are ninety two members of the senate, making forty-seven votes necessary for a con stitutional majority, required to pass bills. On each roll call, however, Senator Aldrich has been able to line up enough Democrats and wavering in surgents to swell his strength to the necessary limit. The weakness and cowardice of the thirty eight who have followed Aid rich blindly and oi the eight or ten in surgents and Democrats who have come when he called have made it pos sible for the Rhode Island statesman to put through the senate just the kind of a tariff bill he wanted, without re gard to what the people wanted. The degree of their servility is second only to that of his brazen autocracy. Lin coln Star. THE FOURTH, THEN AND NOW. The muster roll following the "Bat tle of the Fourth" will not be com pleted for some days. It sometimes requires a period of a week or so for the te'tanus germ to fulfill its mission. Unlike the dumbum bullets, the paper wad and the dynamite cape, which our Vested Interests sell by the millions of dollars' worth, produce a lingering death In contrast with the casualty lists of modern Fourth of July celebrations is this extract from the "Western Expos itor" of Independence, Mo., published June 28, 1845: "Fourth of July. At a meeting of the citizens of Independence, held on the evening of the 27th inst, John H. Harper, Esq., was selected to deliver an address on the approaching anni versary. The following gentlemen were appointed a committee of arrange ments, viz : Messrs. Maxey, Slaugh ter, Webb, Ralston,- McGill, Rees and Matthews, who are requested to meet this evening at the office of Messrs. Woodson & Smith." There is not the suggestion of a per turbed and afflicted community in this preparation for the Fourth. There is not the hint of anything more deadly than pink lemonade and a long speech. There is the implied promise that cit izens can hear the speech or stay away, as they please and not have their ears bombarded with oratory in their homes, or in hospitals, or in the streets. The public might hesitate to freely reinstate the town orator in his earlier Independence Day pre-eminence, but he was not murderous or all pervasive, and people could get away from him Kansas City -Times. DEMOCRATIC LEADERS SEE AHEAD. There Ss a lesson to be learned in the Kearney dollar dinner. It is that the liquor question is to be the paramount issue in the next election of executive and legislative .state officers. That election is more .'than a year away, but the forces are being recruited. It would be heard in the coming election of judges and regents if the law to make them nonpartisan had not been enacted.' The dollar dinner demonstrates that both parties are maneuvering for position even thus early. The three principal speakers at that feast ad dressed themselves to the main ques tion. Each had his own particular remedy fix the threatened malady of county option or prohibition. Mayor Dahlman was militantly eager to give battle in the open to the cold water hosts, with home rule and personal liberty for the party motto. Governor Shallenberger was for main taining the status quo and upholding the daylight enactment of a .demo cratic legislature. Ex-Mayor Brown, of Lincoln, was for strict regulation as the surest means of warding off county option. He directed attention to the fact that even the brewers and dis tillers have established a bureau for the dissemination of the gospel of the model saloon, which seemed to be notice to anyone contemplating a fight for anything like wide-openness that he would find himself deserted by his former heaviest backers and financiers. The utterances of the three chief speakers at that dinner, which must be looked upon somewhat in the light of a council of war, were outspokenly a warning to their party to get in out of the wet there first. It was a com mand to capture the breastworks be fore the enemy came on with its artil lery. It was a signal to get away from the wrath to come. Only Mayor Jim seemed uudaunted The other two wobbled and seemed fearful that any thing but concession meant disaster and drought. They preferred diplomacy to open battle, aud an earnest desire to get away from the main point at issue. An unqualified fight for thesupreraacy of the saloon foreboded evil for them, but promised no terror for the Omaha Lmaypr. The lesson of it is that the daylight saloon bill has come to stay until a more stringent restriction shall suc ceed it. The republican party cannot be expected reasonably to oppose it unless it be for something that prom ises less of freedom to the saloon, some such promise as is coLtained in a' county option platform. Mayor Dahl man might be expected to wipe out the daylight bill if given a legislature iu sympathy, but no such legislature could be elected while the current sentiment prevails, and the chance does not seem favorable for the elec tion of any man who holds the liberal views of the Omaha mayor. Not even for the nomination by his party. There is going to be 'a lot of hedging upon the party of candidates for governor and legislators, and Mayor Jim is un willing, if indeed able, to hedge. He is too outspoken and believes too much. He is where he could not avail himself of the aid of clever subterfuge and could not make a single battery. Omaha Examiner. , ' A BOUNTY ON GOOD CITIZEN SHIP. Let us put a bounty on good citizen ship by giving it great influence; by rendering it high houor, and by hold ing it in incomparable esteem. Nich olas Murray Butler. The duty of citizenship is a trite theme, but it is a great theme the greatest of all themes relating to pop ular government. For the degree of success attained under representative rule is merely a reflection of the degree in which that duty is performed. "If the decent men and women of America," said the president of Colum bus University in another part of his Denver address yesterday, "would be gin tomorrow to do the things which their private beliefs and their public professions require, the sum total of the world's comfort and happiness would be marvelously increased be fore sunset" The mass of the people are growing more independent, more courageous, more intelligent in the performance of the duty of citizenship. The gain as reflected in the popular representation of the people is not yet commensurate with the gain in the mass, but it, is nevertheless notable. An elaborate, broadly speaking, deserves no better representation than it chooses. The exception lies, of course, in such in stances as show rank betrayal of pledges. But it is within the power of the people to safeguard themselves against even such' contingencies. If they insist' that they shall have the power of recall as well as the power of election, -they will have free will in choosing and also freewill in removing public officials. But even if the world is slow to put THE HOSPITAL PATIENT FrotwV'Skefcfcca by Box," by Gkarlw Dickea. Li our rambles through the streets of London after evening haa set in, we often pause beneath the windows of some- public hospital vnch picture to ourselves 'the gloomy and mournful scenes that are passing within. 'The sudden moving of a taper as its feeble ray shoots from window towindowun- til its light gradually disappears, as if it were carried 'father back into the room to the beside of some suffering patient, is enough to awaken a whole crowd of reflections; the mere glimmer ing of the slow burning lamps, which when all other habitations are wrap ped in darkness and slumber, denote the chamber where so many forma are writhing with pain or wasting with dis ease, is sufficient to check the most boisterous merriment. About a twelvemonth ago, as we were strolling through Covent Garden (we had been thinking about these things over night) were attracted by the very prepossessing appearance of a pickpocket, who, having declined to take the trouble of walking to the po lice office, on the ground that he hadn't the slightest wish to go there at all, was being conveyed thither in a wheel barrow to the huge delight of the crowd. Somehow we never can resist joining a crowd, so we turned back with the mob, and entered the office, in company with our friend the pickpocket, a cou ple of policemen, and as many dirty faced spectators as could squeeze their way in. There was a powerful, ill-looking fellow at the bar, who was undergoing an examination, on the very common charge of having on the previous night, ill-treated a women, with whom he lived in some court hard by. Several witnesses bore testimony to acts of the grossest brutality; and a certificate was read from the house surgeon of a neighboring hospital, describing the nature of the injuries the woman had received, and intimating that Tier re covery was extremely doubtful. Some question seemed to have been raised about the identity of the pris oner; for when it was agreed that the two magistrates should visit the hos pital at 8 o'clock that evening, to take her deposition, it was settled that the man should be taken there also. He turned pale at this, aud we saw him clench the bar very hard when the or der was given. He was removed directly afterward, aud he spoke not a word. We felt an irrepressible curiosity to witness this interview, although it is hard to tell why, at this instant, for it must be a painful one. It was no , a. very dimcuit matter lor us 10 gain permisson and we obtained it. The prisoner, and the officer who had him in custody, were already at the hospital when we reached it, and waiting the arrival of the magistrates in a small room below stairs. The man was handcuffed, and his hat was pulled forward over his eyes. It was easy to see, though, by the whitness of his countenance, and the constant twitching of the muscles of his face, that he dreaded what was to come. After a short interval, the magistrate and clerk were bowed in by the house surgeon and a couple1 of young men who smelled very strong of tobacco they were introduced as "dressers" nil aftop nnp mapiatrata had comolain- B j a bounty on good citizenship, the citi zen himself should do himself the honor of making himself worthy of such a bounty. Intelligent self-esteem is a thing to be cherished. When the doctrine of dutiful citizenship becomes triumphant, party adherence will not be stronger than personal preferences; public representatives will be judged for what they do or fail to do; their motives will not lie questioned so long as they do what is obviously right, and their errors or crimes will not be con doned when they do what is obviously wrong; the demagogue will have no occupation aad the blackmailer will be in prison; the "bad citizen" will be the man of conscious evil only, and will not have for company the "good man" who deceives himself or lets himself be deceived by partisan or factional clamor or by the iastiacts of aggrand isement Kansas City Star.

The object of the visit was lying in the upper end of the room. She was a fine young women of about two or three and twenty. Her long black hair which had been hastily cut from near the wounds on her head, streamed over the pillow in jagged and matted locks. Her face bore deep marks of the ill-usage she' had received; her hands were pressed upon her side, as if her chief pain were there, her breath ing waa short and heavy, and it was plain to see that she was dying fast. She murmured a few words in reply to the magistrate's inquiry whether ahe was in great pain; aud, having been raised on the pillow by the nurse, looked vacantly upon the strange countenances that surrounded her bed. The magistrate nodded to the officer to bring the man forward. He did so, and stationed him at the bedside. The girl looked on with a wild and troubled expression of face, but her sight was dim, and she did not known him. "Take off his hat," said the magis trate. The officer did as he was de sired, and the man's features were dis closed. The girl started up, with an energy quite preternatural; the fire gleamed in her heavy eyes, and the blood rush ed to the pale and shrunken cheeks. It was a convulsive effort. She fell back upon her pillow, and covering her scarred aud bruised face with her hands, burst into tears. The man cast an anxious look toward her, but other wise appeared wholly unmoved. Af ter a brief pause the uature of their errand was explained, aud the oath tendered. "Ob, no, gentlemen," said the girl, raising herself once more, aud folding her hands together, "no gentlemen, for God's sake! I did it myself it was nobody's fault it was an acci dent. He didn't hurt me, he wouldn't for all the world. Jack, dear Jack. you know you wouldn't!" Her sight was fast failing her, and her hand gropped over the bedclothes in search of his. Brute as the inau was, be was not prepared for this. He turned his face from the bed, and sobbed. The girl's color changed, and her breathing grew more difficult. She was evidently dying. "We respect the feelings which pro mpt you to this," said the gentleman who had spoken first, "but let me waru you not to persist in what you known to be untrue, until it is too late. It cannot save him." "Jack," murmured the girl, laying her hand upon his arm, "they shall not persuade me to swear your life away. He never hurt me." She grasped his arm tightly, and added, in a broken whisper, "I hope God Almighty will forgive me all the wrong I have done, and the life I have led. God bless you, Jack. Some kind gentleman take my love to my poor old father. Five years ago he said he wished I had died a child. Oh, I wish I had! I wish I had!" The nurse bent over the girl for a few seconds, and then drew the sheet over her face. It covered a corpse.

"Whaffur you steal Miss Ellen's fat pullet?" he asked between shakes. Uncle Silas may have had some weaknesses, but they did not extend to Miss Ellen's chicken yard.
