At the evening session of the Woman Suffrage Association convention yesterday there was # very largo audience. The exercises were opened with prayer by Rev. Frederick A. Hinckley of | Boston, Mass. Mrs. Julia Ward Howe of Boston was the first spenker of the evening, taking for her subject “The Possibilities of the American Salon.” She said: The first object of socicty | isto make people better friends. Society has many more blanks than ithas prizes, and often- | times when one expects to draw the latter he | finds that a blank is all be has. For society is | am uncertain lottery. One of the needs of society is that its guardians shall not so use it us to make the results exactly the opposite of what was originally desired. There may be times when « salon would be undesirable. | Dante bas given us the idea of the good and of the bad association. Modern society is one of | the results of the world conquest which was crowded wita thorns nearly 2,000 years ago. PUBLIC SPIRIT IN A CLUB. H among which were those appropriating 280,000 for the purchase of the coast survey building for 000 und of the Malthy House for $125,000; £400,000 additional for the purchase of a site for a publie building in San Francisco and directing that the construction shall begin with any of that amount that shall remain after the purchase; directing the proper officers of the Howard Univer to report an- nually to the Secretary of the Interior how the appropriations for that university are ex- pended: appropriating £15,000 for the importa- tion, care, and preservation of reindeer for the use of the natives of Alaska; and appropriating $60,000 for defining and marking the lines of battle occupied by the army of N ginia during the three days of the battle of Gettysburg. The bill was reported to the Senate, and all the amendments were agreed to in bulk, except those on which separate votes were asked. Mr. Berry asked for a separate vote on the item of £10,000 for the daughters of the late Joveph Henry, secretary of t! ithsonian Institution, for valuable public services ren- dered by him. ‘The item wa agreed to—yeas, ler asked a separate vote on the committee amendment for the fish cominission. He spoke tures of th nimsion and of the propriety of having it place + one of the great depart- ments of the government. After much discus- sion the amendment was agreed to. Mr. Cameron got through his bill for a 000,000 new mint building at Philadelphia In the club a sort of public spirit developes | and the legislative bill was then taken up. itself. The club that I have in my mind was the Radical Club of Boston, which was called radical mainly because it root. ‘The ideas brought out there often canseda clash of opinion and became the concern of sincere thinkers These minds meeting each other resulted in the presentation of the sub- ject under discussion inall itsphases. In those there was a general feeling in the eiub against woman suffrage, but the old-fashioned, blue-blood idea of . she said was chan of interesting inc movement.and stated rse. instead of being bene- | ficial, sometimes engenders antagonisms, often dividing friendships and famil If we are to have asnlon it should not be too much talked abont.

It is also semi-reli- | gious, for every member must be a ‘believer in the existence of a Supreme Being’ and all the meetings are opened and closed with prayer. | Its intention is, ‘On earth peace and good will townrd men.’ And while the first of its seven deciarations of purposes is ‘to labor for the |edneation of the agricultural classes in the science of economical government in a strictly non-partisan spirit,’ which means that no par- | tixan disenssions are permitted in the councils of the order, still the alliance is intensely poli- tical. It could not be otherwise and attain the objects sought. Proposing to educate its mem- bers in the science of economical government, | it must discuss all matters pertaining to admin- intration of the laws. Its second declaration asserts a demand for ‘equal rights to all and special privileges to none. “It was not intended originally, nor is it now, that the allionce should” become a political Party, nor that it should form a nucleus about which a party should collect.

IGNORED BY PARTIES iX POWER. “Appeals were made, “to lenders of the parties in power, but no at- tention was paid to themand the alliance mem- bers set about seriously to build up a party of the people, to be composed of voters who were agreed “upon a policy to bring about, the changes needed, these voters coming from other bodies of organized labor and from all existing political partics. ‘The result in Kansas was the people’s purty. In othpr states differ- ent methods of proceeding wére adopted: in tinct party formed, though the principies ad- yocated and the objects sought by organized farmers in all the states are the sume. FUNDAMENTAL PROPOSITIONS. “The alliance membership are agreed upon ® few fundamental propositions relating to land, Inbor. transportation and money and they want legislation upon those subjects. They want more money in circulation; they want the gov- ernment to iasue all the money directly and get it to the people without the intervention of in- tercst-charging agencies; they want mon made pleuty and put out at low rates of inter- est; they want the government to tke charge of the nioney of the country, 4o that its benctits may be enjoyed by all the people upon fair terms and on eqnal terma—the same rate of in- terest on the same amount of money for the same length of time: they want trans- portation ‘controlled by the government in the | public interest, so it may be cheap, safe and equal in its burdens and bepefits: they want a | readjustment of our land system. that all the | public lands may be gathered in speedily and disposed of to settlers under the homestead law: they want alien ownership of lands abolished in some equitable way; they want to secure for the people the largest possible measure of benetit from the unused lands of the country; they | want legislation that will cause vacant lands to | bear their full share—acre tor acre—of the | public burdens resulting from taxation; they want homesteads protected in the interest of citizens and their families; in short, as to these | grext matters first, and as to ail related matters afterward, the alliance wants such legislation as will equalize burd. benefits of govern- ment, uffording equal protection to all the citi- | zens, destroying the influence of the money | power, suppressing combinations against free- | dom of trade, and placing the debtor on terms | equal with his creditor. FINANCIAL LEGISLATION. “This uprising of the people comes from a belief that the universal depression in agri- culture is directly traceable to vicious legisla- | tion; that our financial policy is ruinous to the | masses; that as its legitimate fruit the rich are | becoming richer and the poor poorer, while the | wealth of the country is fast passing into the | Mr. Peffer continues, | none of them, however. was a séparate and dis- | sippi the mercury fell fifty degrees “in a few hours and the weather was the coldest experi- enced there in many years. Snow fell all over north Alabama for several hours yesterday. The ground was warm, how- ever, and the snow soon melted. It was the first of the season. Last night the weather was very cold. - In Jacksonville, Fla... yesterday afternoon the fresh westerly wind, which had been blowing since morning, wore suddenly around to the northward and’ soon became a genuine north- westerly the severest since 1872, and at 3:50 p.m. it reached a velocity of fifty-six miles anhonr. After that it eubsided gradually and last night was comparatively calm. Considera- ble damage is reported in all parts of the city. Asovere storm raged throughont northern New Jersey yesterday afternoon and the roads are almost impassable RIE IN THE SUSQUEHANNA. For the first time this winter the Susque- hanna river is seventeer feet above the low- water mark at Wilkesbarre and the highway is inundated about threo feet. The flood came very suddenly and is still rising. The calcn- lations of lumber men nlong the stream below have been that no more floods would ensue and owing to this much damage will result from the swollen stream. All trains on the New York Central and Hud- son River railroad are detained at Hudson, Y., until further notive by reason of high wa and ice on the ‘rack between Stuyvesant and Albany. Ice Gna IN THR MOHAWK. ‘The ice in the Mohawk river moved down abont six miles yesterday afternoon, but formed another gorge. The ive is about eighteen inches thick and is wolid. ‘The tracks of the New York Central and Hudson River railroad are torn up, washed ont and covered with bug? :akes of ice for adlistance of six mitoa between Palatine bridge and St. Johnsville. Many freight trains are stalled jn the water, one train near Fort being MY the track. "It will be many days before trattic can be resumed on the New York Central railroad. The wi isi r many families at Canajoharie and at Sprakers who lived near the river moved out last night, ‘The ice crushed in several houses as it vent ont yasterday. Near Fort Plain the water flowed into the Erie canal and carried off three canal boats and a bi re. ‘A washout on the Went Shore tracks at Fort Plain yesterday afternoon prevented the run- ing of trains for four or five hours. Ono track has been repaired and trains are runnin; again. Telegraph and telephone poles hay been broken off in many plac a is crippled. ‘The ice above St. Johnsville has notcome down yet, and unless the gorge at Big Nose gives way much more damage will be done. The streams in St. Lawrence and Lewis counties are dangerously high. Several honses have been carried away. At Norfolk a dam ard sw mill have been swept away. Huge eakes of ice are flonting through the streets. Copenha- gen, Lewis county, has half its streets under water and a saw mill partially demolishe:. sss dao LIEUT. PEAR’ EXPEDITION. He Will Lead a Party Through Interior Greenland Toward the Pole. The New York Herald's Washington apecial says: Anew polar expedition will be under- taken by Civil Engineer Robert E. Peary of the | United States, who yesterday secured ienve of absence for eighteen months with this object in view. Mr. Peary proposes to start on his expedition from 8t. Johns, N. F., about the first of next May. His idea is to go as far north ax whaling steamer will carry him and thea strike for the north Spole on foot across Green- land. He intends to have as small accompony- ing party as is consistent with absolute neces- sity. Possibly it may be composed of not more than four or five natives, and baggage and other impediments will be reduced to the low- eat senle also. | ‘The expedition, which had been planned and arranged by Lieut. Peary, is purely and his insurance, reviewed all the evidence submitted, called attention to Vail’s remarka- bie exclamation when his wife was shot. “No, Fanny, it struck the wheel,” which indicated that even then he was making evidence for himself,and clvsed with an eloquent peroration. Marshall McDonald, attorney for the defense, at first stated that he would submit the case without argument, but subsequently changed his mind and made brief speech, which was principally abuse of insurance companies. Mr. Dryden then closed for the state and Judge Normile placed the case inthe hands of the jury, instructing them if they decided the killing of Mrs. Vail was an accident to Dring in a verdict of not guilty. If they concluded it ‘was intentional to bring in » verdict of guilty. At 11 o'clock the jury was looked up for the night and court wes adjourned. VIRGINIA NOT!
