At the opening session of the second day's proceedings of the recent woman's suffrage convention at Port land, the women of Seattle, "Washing ton Territory, presented to Mrs. Dun iway, through Mrs. Woodiuff of Fort Canby, a banner bearing on one side the -word ' V ictory," in gold letters on white satin, surrounded by .a laurel wreath; on the reverse side the star spangled bannor in silk and satiu. The elegant gift was accompanied by a penciled sketch of "Liberty." Mrs. Woodruff, on behalf of the women voters of Washington, accom panied the presentation with the fol lowing address: The women of Seattle have com missioned me as bearer of this ensign to Oregon's valiant daughter, Mrs. A. S. -Duniway. "The banner, bearing the coat of arms of America, is the symbol of the highest hope and ambition of humanity freedom. We, through it, wish to express our appreciation of Mrs. Duniway's efforts on our behalf. While we were lotus-eating, while we were willing slaves to chance, she was busy, pioneering a better inheritance for us. While we slept she was fight ing "wild beasts at Ilphesus," to ob tain for us the right in secular ways which the laws of God ordained. Napoleon's valor led through blood; rhrough desecration of his own fire side. Mrs. Duniway's heraldry ha3 been for peace and for the sanctity of home. Napoleon struck a blow at the supposed divine right of kings to have absolute control of men; Mrs. Duni way has struck a blow at the sup posed divine right of men to have subjects in the persons of women. irroud ought Oiegon to be in the possession of a woman capable of leading, of blazing tho way to such exalted attainments in the future. Let no man in her borders remand her representative woman to the rank of an alien, while giving the right hand of fellowship to foreign men, assuming authority over women by their voting power. Let Oregon first be true to her own naturalized citi zens before adopting others. Let her women who helped make the state be given the privilege to help regulate her interests, before yielding to the incapacity of strangers. When we on the other side of the rolling Colum bia rig our ship of state, we sail tinder true colors thanks to the re cipient of this token and her people will be equally free. Will Oregon adopt this motto and shield next June, or will she adopt one with a lion, symbolizing confusion and tyranny? The American's only safe guard is in the ballot Do the men of Oregon know this? Then let them sea to it that the mother is prepared, when the father fails or fails, to have its benefits. We trust that the men of Oregon, along with the men of the territories, will acknowledge us helpmeets indeed, in tellectually as well as physically; in polemics as "well as in drudgery; in everything affeoting our national home life as well as our individual home life. Then, when men rush to battle, we will be the Portias to arbi trate for peace. , Mrs. Duniway, I present you this banner, with the desire of Washing ton territory's women that after next June it may mean even more to you than it does to us. We know that you will not willingly let it hang in dusty dishonor, and we trust the vot ers of your state will allow you to air its sacred colors in the bahny at mosphere of next June, and of suc ceeding Junes, as the emblem of gen uine, unalloyed liberty, alongside the escutcheon of the "Kiver of the West," proclaiming "Liberty and Union, now and Forever." Mrs. Duniway responded in a tel ling speech, which inspired every hearer with renewed confidence and hope for success in Oregon next June. The victory in Washington had a grand significance, and the stars and stripes were tho emblems of a freedom that was destined to be universal . a m - Holds llis Tongue. Eoscoe Conkling, being last week asked his views on the present politi cal situation, said: When the Persian embassy was about to take leave of the Grecian court, once in olden time, they asked and received some mes sage from each of the personages present When the turn of Zeno came he said: "Tell your master that you saw a grey haired old man in Athens who knew enough to hold his tongue. Please ascribe to my admiration for Zeno and his teachings my silence touching your forecast of my action in the politics of the future." Although Sitka and Alaska are al most synonymous with the north pole to average minds in the temperate .Zone, a comparison of maps shows that Sitka and St. Petersburg, in Bussia, are in the same latitude, and the mouth of the Chilcat river is on s line .with the south coast of Green land. The extent of this northwest territory and the vast distances be tween points are more than bewilder ing. Alaska itself is equal in area to all the United States east of the Mississippi river. Counting in the Aleutan chain, the Pirbyloff group and the 1100 islands of the Alexander Archipelago, the total area of the Alaskan islands is 31,265 square miles. Che 'island of Attn, the Is s of the Aleutan chain, is as far west of San Fjancisco as Bangor, Maine, is east of it and the indented coast line of Alaska, measuring 25,000 miles, is even greater than the whole coast line of the Atlantic and Pacific snores pi the United States put together. While a farmer was driving across the railroad near Jamestown, Dak., coming into town with a load of turnips, one of the larger size fell up on.the track and the railroad com pany had to send the wrecking train cut to .remove it with a derrick. Tmrnips are smaller than usual this jear on acconnt of the drought. Ml Side Headache, Pain in the Back and Limbs, Biliousness, Blotches. Boils and -Pimples entirety cured by Wm. Pf un 4r's Oregon Blood Purifier. An Ileiress' Marriage Giddy Counts nnd Piinces. Miss Leslie Josephine Ayer, only daughter of the late Dr. J. 0. Ayer, was married to Lieutenant Comman der Frederick Pierson, TJ. S. Is., by Assistant Bishop Potter, at the resi dence of her brother, Frederick J. Ayer, 5 West JTifty-seventh street Over 1000 invitations had been issued. The house was magnificently decorat ed, over 8,000 roses being used in adorning the parlors. In the front parlor stood a large cottage ten feet square, composed of MarechalJacque minot and Princess Alexis roses. From either side of the cottage were suspended four large wedding-bells of roses. Within tho cottage the ceremony was performed, and then the bride and bridegroom received the congratulations of their friends. Miss Ayer possesses a fortune of $10,000,000, and is one of the greatest heiresses in New York city. She is a little above the medium height and her figure is quite graceful. Her skin is cream white and her eyes are gra, the eye-brows being arched. Her hair, which is of dark brown, is banged and coiled at the back. Her accomplishments are many. While traveling abroad, Prince Phillipe de Bourbon formed her acquaintance, fell madly in love with her, and sought her hand in marriage, but was refused; aud, as a result, entered an insane asylum, where he was confined for some time. Among numerous other counts, lords aud dukes who have been suitors for her hand was Count Bettini, who called on her one evening, proposed, was rejected, and shot himself in the vestibule of her house. After a long and dangerous illness ho recovered, and is now nurs ing his shattered heart in sunnv Italy. N. 1". Diyatth. The VaiiUe of a Pnoxr. Getting even with Mrb. Brewn: Two ladiea tete-a-tete: "That Mrs. Brown is just as mean as she can be! Why, would you believe it, she told me, right to my face, that I dressed too joung for a woman of my vears! Tho idea!" ''She did? Well, if she'd talked to me that way I believe Td told her just what I thought of her. "Oh, no, dear; that would be rude." "Pos sibly." "But I did better. I told Mrs. Smith what my opinion of Mrs. Brown was, and Mrs. Brown will hear it soon enough. And then, you know, it won't lose anything in Mrs. Smith's mouth. It is one of my principles, love, never to do anything disagreeable when I can get some body else to do it for me." Gen. Buford of Kentucky is a man of practical ideas in politics. He says in reference to the presidential elec tien: "We must have a campaign ; fund of 2,000,000 if we expect toj win, and I am in favor of the man who will furnish it" This is a round i price to pay for even so high an office as the presidency, but we presume'. men might be found to advance the sum if they could bo assured that it would secure the prize. The names of at least half a dozen will occur to the public mind, who might be sound ed on the subject by Gen. Buford. A married couple perished in the City of Columbus disaster, leaving no children, but considerable prop erty. As it is impossible to say surely which one died first, the title to the estate will have to be determined by reference. The courts have held in J cases of shipwreck, we believe, that the woman being the weaker, the law J warrants the conclusion that shoj cues nrst, ana tnereiore the husband s heirs are entitled to the property. According to the last census re turns the population of Sweden has increased from 1,763,000 in 1350 to 4,572,245, the most populous prov inces beincr those of the sonth. nq they have 38 inhabitants per square ! have only 33.
