WOMEN VOTERS IN KANSAS.
A Liir^c Increase in tlio Registration
of Females.
New York Times.
Topkka, April 3.?The action of
the Legislature yi submitting to the
rotors ati amendment to the Constitution
giving women the right to
-11 l-.i! L. 1 1 *1 e*
vuw3 hi mi elections nas nau tne euect
of sl; .jitly increasing the registration
in cities where they have the
right to vote in municipal elections.
In tne several cities where registra
tion is required tli6 poll books show
the following numbers of women
taking advantage of their limited
righi??: Topeka, 4,000; Leavenworth,
2,354; Wichita, 2,464; Lawrence,
1,000; Fort Scott, 1,385; Kmporia,
883; Kansas City, 3,482.
The proportion is continued about
the &itne in the other cities. The
registration this year is much larger
than it was last year. While
some of this increase was caused by
a wish to prove that the women desired
full franchise, much of it was
occasioned by the activity of candidates
in the cities, who personally
solicited their friends of the gentler
.sex to help them out.
It is certain that the large majority
of the women have expressed
themselves against this innovation,
and have declared that, given the
right, they would never exercise it.
While many of the good women of
tne cities have voiced their senti.
incuts at the polls, it is a recorded
fact tlmt all the women of questionable
character have never failed to
vote where they had that privilege.
This latter fact is well understood
by those who have run hacks and
carriages to wing out voters. They
have not voted so muph for principle,
as they have to help out some
favorite man who might return the
favor in an official way.
Without exception the elections
have been as free from rudeness as
though they were on the street for
other purposes. They are always
men about who would not permit
any incivility, oyen if it were offered.
In this State the law forbidding any
person to approach nearer the voting
place than fifty feet has been generally
observed, much to the comfort
of the men as woll as the women.
This of itself is a protection to those
who feel that they need protection.
Ticket peddlers seldom approach the
women, who have a place set apart
, for them in which they can prepare
their ballots.
In the Legislature lobby last winter,
when the proposed amondment
was under consideration- mi edit Imvn
vr-*. ' ??& *"
been observed the same women who
have been engaged in that work for
a dozen or more years. They were
not strong in numbers, but it was
prove^'1 that they were strong in influenc^
and power, for when the final
vote was taken there were few who
had the temerity to vote "No."
Most of these women had made reputations
on the platform aa lecturers,
some of them even having national
notoriety. Truth compels the admission
that at their homes they
were visitors, and in some instances
strangers. They were all good women;
of this there is no doubt. But
they have had for years a mission,
and at the same time a revenue from
the various suffrage clubs which they
formed in various counties of the
Staf j
Up to the present time they have
not Romrht to nontrol the. militia, nor
have any of them applied for appointments
in that organization.
None of thorn have sought for appointment
on any of the State hoards
except the Stuto board of charities
at.d the Columbian board. They
claim that they will bo content to
regulate such boards as they cannot
I consistently furnish members for.
There might be named one exception
to those who do not love strife.
Or.^of the principal workers in this
movement, Mrs. Laura M. Johns,
possessed of tact as well as of ability
was in the melee when the Iiepubli
can members of the Legislature
broke through the great door at the
main entrance and captured the hall.
* Theie were Winchester rifles and
| revolvers in plenty there, in the
! hands of desperate, reckless men,
who were prepared to fire upon the
attacking body. Ins'eadof seeking
a sheltered spot, as did some of the
Mart prudent reporters present in

tho hall. Mrs. Johns took her station
in tho middle of the hall, near
the door, and when the panels were
broken throut*h by Speaker Donglas
she shouted and cheered tho men
who were making their way in the
face of men armed with fire-arms.
When the overpowdered Populists
beat a hasty retreat, she was the first
one to swing her handkerchief over
her head and shout: "Victory!'' regardless
of the scowling faces of the
vanquished army.
This woman has been the most
earnestly and consistent advocate of
woman suffrage, and has had the
tact to do her work in the lobby only
when the most could be accomplished.
Before the close of the
present registration she made earn
est appeals for the women to register,
and thus prove the falsity of
the claims made by her opponents
that the women did not want to vote.
Her advice has been followed to a
greater degree than was expected,
though, as has been shown, much of
the increase was caused by the activity
of candidates who want votc3.
Municipal elections in the past
have been productive of curious re
suits. Contrary to general expectation,
in many of the cities the women
have openly espoused the cause of
those whom the business men could
not support because of corrupt practices.
In this citv a few years ago
the issue was sharply drawn between
a man who was iti favor of closing
;ii! "joints una msreputauie nouses
ami a man who favored these places
under proper regulations. The women
of the city, including 0110 of the
leading Christian associations, openly
espoused the can o of the hitter,
and by their votes gave him the victory
over the man deemed hy the
business men to he tho proper p'?r
son to be placed tit tho head of the
city government. The night nfier
the election, at a jollification held hy
tho adherents of the successful candidate,
toasts were publicly drunk to
"The ladies of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Association, who
so nobly came to our rescue."
This has not always been the case,
for in some of the smaller towns the
women have wrested tho Govern
ment from the hands of men unfitted
to control, in one instance?that
at Kiowa?a woman running against
her husband for mayor and defeating
him.
There have been instances of women
Police Judges, an ofiice that
they have filled to the terror of
tramps and vagabonds. In such
cases the women filling that official
position have secured full satisfaction
for ihe years of terror yet upon
them hy the tramp element. In one
village where there was a female Po
lice Judge there was a uniform sentence
for all tramps and vagabonds.
The victim was forced first to take a
thorough hath, administered by a
strong marshal, and then given ten
days on a rock pile. Work could
not he shirked, for the.order was to
feed the victim according to the
amount of work done, and the meals
for a full day's work would never
founder the man. In one instance
a tramp was sentenced to two baths
a day for ten days, and he received
thorn without any rebate. He never
visited that section of the State again,
for fear he might unconsciously cross
into the limits of that village.
The women have so injudiciously
antagonized men of all parties that
it is believed tho amendment to tho
Constitution will be voted down, especially
now that the State has adopted
a ballot system that insures absolute
secrecy. There are men that
will talk "suffrage'' and vote against
it, feeling that they dare not try the
experiment. They believe that with
snob suffrage the evi's of the past
will he repeated on a larger scale.
There is no fear that those who vote
can be purchased, hut the danger is
apparent that prejudice will overcome
reason. At least such are the
reasons given by those who will oppose
the new departure.
Iti-ifrlif SttiMiiir Diivm
The spring should bo pre eminently
a season of contentment, happiness
and hope. In those bright and
pleasant months tho country should
enjoy its highest degree of tranquility
and prosperity. Hut spring
it is well known, is often a period
of discomfort and disturbance in the
physical system. Important organs
of the body become torpid or irregular
in their action, and the fact
is instantly reflected in the mental
condition of the individual. A disordered
liver means disordered
n<n-V3a and a dull and unsteady
brain. Anything which will bring
the physical system into harmony
with budding Nature confers an enormous
benefit upon the nation, be
sides the mere allaying of physical
discomfort. Hood's Sarsaparilla
does this, as thousands of grateful
and happy men and women can testify,
and increased use of this standard
spring medicine is of more roal
Eraotical importance in promoting
ealth and quiet in the business
world than reams of abstract theorizing.

OKN. FRANCIS MARION.
The New Tomb to lie 1'nvaiiletl
in Muy.
News and ('curler.
In 173^ two infants lirst saw the
liglit of day?one in Virginia and
one in South Carolina- who were
destined to figure in their country's
history, side l>v side, and through
succeeding generations to have their
names inscribed more universally on
the soil of the Cnion than any other
two citizens or soldiers of the conntry.
\\ ashing'.on ami Marion are household
words from the Atlantic to tho
Pacific, from the lakes to the gulf,
counties, cities, viluges hear their
names everywhere over the breadth
of a continent without regard to
the paralles of latitude.
Gen. Marion's part in the struggle
for American independence was
conspicuous from the first irritating
cause, the Stamp Act of 1765, down
to the evacuation of Charleston in
December, 1782.
When Charleston was surrendered
in 1780 Gen. Marion, anticipating
this result, left the city in a small
boat and binding on the Wando
Kiver took to the swamps, and for
thirty mouths was or.e of the few
recognized leaders who kept alive
the spirit of liberty when South
Carolina was overrun by British soldiers
from Ninety Six to Charleston.
He had an irrepressible conflict with
King George 111 and never let up
an hour iu his efforts. His name
and fame are only second to Wash
ington in the hearts of his countrymen
even to this day; he died in
1795 and was buried at "Belle Isle"
plantation, as was the habit in those
days. What was then thought of
him by his neighbors and friends is
expressed in this eloquent epitaph:
Sacred to the Memory
of
M nrinti
who departed this life on tin* 27th February,
in the (5!ld year of his age,
Deeply regretted by all his fellow citizens.
History will reconl his worth add rising
generations embalm bis mem
ory as one of the most
distinguished
Patriots and lleroesoftbe American
Hevolut ion,
which elevated his native Country to
donor and Independence and secured
to her the blessings
of liberty and Peace,
This tribute of veneration and gratitud is
erected in commemoration of the noble
and disinterested virtues of the
citizen and the gallant exploits
of the soldier, who lived
without four and
died without
reproach.
The original tomb was built of
brick with a marble slab on top, on
which the epitaph was inscribed.
Some years ago a large treo was
blown down, and falling across the
tomb wrecked it- whether owing to
climatic causes or inferior quality of
the bricks used, a new structure
would have been soon necessary
without the fall of the tree, the old
one being in a crumbling condition
when examined a year ago; the in
seription, too, had become illegibly
from the action of the elements.
The new memorial ordered by the
General Assembly is in tho form of
a sarcophagus, the base block is
thirty inches wide and six and a
half feet ton*?, fifteen inches hiarh:
upon this rests the centre or die
block, thirty inches high; a third
piece surmounts the structure for
ornament and finish. The material
is Winnsboro granite, finished in
rustic stylo, and when erected on its
sub-base will have an elevation of
six feet.
The material of the old structure
will be used up entirely in the concrete
foundation, which is necessary
to support tne new tomb, which will
weigh about seven tons. This disposition
identifies the old with the
new monument and prevents these
precious remnants from laying
around as common material. The
remnants of the old stone slab and
inscription will be preserved and
brought to the city for such action
as the State authorities may deem
best.
It will be a source of pride and
gratification to Americans throughout
the Union to know that the
original epitaph is to be preserved
to the latest posterity in an elegant
bronze panel sunk in one side of the
three-ton die block, while the other
side will have a second bronze panel
displaying the full coat of arms of
South Carolina and the following
inscription;
To preserve to posterity this burial place
<?f an honored son
The General Assembly of South Carolina
Replaces the crumbling and broken tomb
nearly a century old with this enduring
memorial cut from her own granite hi Is
Ksto perpetua,
1803.
The whole structure is built as
against Father Time, and it is hoped
that trees near it will be cut down,
but Mr. T. II. Reynolds, tho contractor
thinks that if another tree should
fall it will be a bad business for the
trees!
The plans and specifications for
this memorial have been furnished
to the Governor by Mr. L. J. Barbot,
without charge. The HenriBouward
Bronze Com puny of New
York arc themselves so much pleased
/

with these handsome bronze panels j
as works of high bronze art that
they propose to place them on exhibition
in New York before shipping
them to Charleston. Mr. I ley- 1
nohls will also arrange to place them
oil exhibition here when received
but only for a short time.
Tho State authorities are in charge
of this good work, and it is presumed
that some formal cernionies will he
arranged for the day of nnveling,
less than a month from today. On :
this subject it may he mentioned,;
that "Belle Isle" is twelve miles
from St. Stephen's depot on the
Northeastern Railroad, and tt is
primarily a question of transports
tion to reach this historic spot- Of
course everyone who can mount a
horse or move a vehicle, in a circle
of twenty miles, will ho very apt to
make the trip to the new tomb that
day. Then there are several mounted
com pair es who con hi arranged
to ride there.
As appropriate reading at this
time The News and Courier republishes
the "The Song of Marion's
Men," written sixty two years ago
by the late Win. Cullen Bryant, poet:
Tlio Song of Marion's Men
Our band is few, but true and tried,
Our leader frank and bold;
The British soldier trembles
When Marion's name is told.
Our fortress is the good green wood,
Our tent the cypress trees;
We know the forest round us,
As seamen know the sea.
Woe to the I'lngUsh soldery
That little dread us nearl
On them sh dl light at midnight
A strango and sudd -it fear;
When, waking to their tents on tire,
They grasp their arms in vain*
And they who stand to face u.s
Are beat to earth again;
And they who fly in terror deem
A mighty host behind.
And hear the tramp of thousands
Upon the hollow wind.
Then sweet the horn that brings rvlief
From danger and from toil;
We talk the battle over,
And share the battle spoils;
The woodland rings with laugh and shout
As if a hunt were up,
And woodland Mowers are gathered
To crown the soldier's cup.
With merry song we mock the wind
That in the pine top grieves,
And slumber long and sweetly

having knocked him down was about
to gore him when the Doctor ran to

"Tho Governors of the State of
Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia,

V* ' I " ' '
sole purpose of advancing by co oporation
sum concert of action, tlio
industrial interests and well being
of their several States, do issue the
following address to the people of
the ffoiled States and those in Europe
who may contemplate making
investments in this country or immigrating
hero in search of homos.
The States represented at this con
vention comprise substantially the
sonthern half of the American republic.
The territorial area of these
States is 850,560 square miles. The
population as shown by tho census
of'!)() is a'4249,277. Its eastern
and southern exterior limits are
bounded by the Atlantic Ocean and
the gulf of Mexico. The interior is
traversed by many of tho most important.
rivers of the continent and
by soius of the greatest in the world.
The surface is diversified by mountain
chains and beautiful valleys,
by long stretches of fertile bottom
lands and broad expanse of picturesque
and productive prairies. The
climate is temperate, changing more
or less with the seasons and is pleasant,
invigorating and healthful. The
resources of this vast area, diatribu
ted with wonderful hihI surprising
equality and its adaptation to natural
and to industrial productions is almost
limitless. All or nearly all
j these States have inexhaustible deposits
of coal, mostly bituminous,
which can bo mined less expensively,
perhaps, than elsewhere in the
world. In every section of tho area
embraced by these States tire enormous
and immeasurable supplies of
iron, lead, zinc and other metals use|
ful in. the industrial arts. Multiplied
I thousands are already engaged in
mining and reducing those inetals.
| Tho value of these mines and mineral
deposits has already long since
passed the period of experimenta!
tic*)i; and yet they aro in the very in1
1
fancy of their development. Scattered
throughout these States are,
also, great areas of forests lands, on
which are growing in superabundance,
ns Hue timber as can he found
in the world, cypress, oak, walnut,
ash, maple, pine and the like, (it in
the highest degree for ship building,
housebuilding and for all the uses of

unite to give those States unsurpassed
adaptation and capacity
for productions of agriculture. Tobacco,
cotton, sugar, Indian corn,
wheat, rye, barley, oats, and all the
cereals, arc grown hero in profuso
abundance. No where in the world
does the earth yield more prompt,
certain anil abundant returns to the
vitalizing touch of the husbandmen
than in these common wealths.
As much may he said likewise of
horticulture. Nowhere can richer
or sweeter fruits, such as oranges,
bananas, apples, peaches, plums,
grapes, berries, bo grown in greater
profusion. Already are to be found
hero very many of the most extensive
and profitable orchards, vineyards
and gardens on the globe.
Such, in brief, aro the climate and
topographical conditions and such
the natural and productive advantages
of tho South and Southwest.
"Hitherto immigration and capital
have flowed inoro towards Western
and Northwestern States. This
was due, no doubt, largely to the
fact that these were new States
where immigrants could find free
homes hy right of settlement on public
lands of the United States, and
duo partly, it may bo, to the fact
that most of the States represented
in this convention were the theatre
of war during the struggle between
the States, and were interrupted in
their progress by somewhat turbulent
conditions immediately following
the cessation of hostilities, incident
to tho so called period of reconciliation.
lint happily, all these
disadvantages are now at. an end,
The desirable public lands of the
northwest am practically absorbed:
they have been takon tip. Long
since the old disturbing forces that
prevailed in tho South and menaced
its well being have disappeared. It
has begun a new era of progress and
prosperity. The tide of immigration
has been diverte I southward
and is pouring in a steady augmenting
stream. I'euce is smiling every
where and is striving to win her victories
no less renowned than those ol

Southern history the Governors ol

Itiuiolph Vircliow,
Prof. Rudolph Virchow, tho emi nent
German scientist, who has just
assumed the retorslu'p of Berlin
university, evidently bolieves in
scientific rather than classical stud ies
for young men. "Granimntic
schooling is no longer tho aid tj progressive
development necessary to
our youth or which generates the
love of learning that is the lirst
condition to independent development,"
said Prof. Virchow in a
recent address. "There are now
other fields of learning whose methods
are so far carried out that they
are perfectly ahlo to fulfill what is
necessary, there are mathematics,
philosophy and tie natural sciences;
they afford the young mind such a
secure foundation that it can easily
make itself at home in any faculty.
On the development of these three
sciences rests the whole of our wes torn
culture, a culture which ripen
cu ii unristopncr Commons, to whose
genius ami energy allow . e to pay
a deserved tribute. The university
is not merely an institution for acquiring
knowledge, but also 0110 for
examination and exploration." Prof.
Virohow is among the anti Darwin
inn scientists, lie says that in
spite of statements to the contrary,
no traces of tho "missing link" bo
twoon man and the lower animals
has been discoved either in the
physical organization of modern savages
or :n the most ancient of human
. skulls.
Immigration to this State,
