uel Brown, son of John Brown, of
"soul goes marching on" fame, met
William Booth, son of the sheriff who
hanged John Brown. As Is the custom
of all conventions In Oregon every del
egate does his best to get acquainted
with every other delegate, nnd all dele
gates speak whether acquainted or not.
Several delegates were going about In
troducing a rather handsome man of
40 or therealK-.uts. whom they called Mr.
Booth, of McMinnville. They would
say of him:
"Mr. Booth Is the son of the sheriff
who hanged John Brown, of Ossawat
omle, at Harper's Ferry."
All of which caused people to take
more than a common Interest In Mr.
Booth. Finally Mr. Booth was intro
ducer to a man of excellent appearance,
whose name was Samuel Brown. After
the Introduction, Mr. Booth nnd Mr.
Brown chatted very pleasantly for a
minute or two.
"Mr. Booth," said; Mr. Brown, "was
it your father who hanged John Brown
at Harper's Ferry?"
"Yes," said Mr. Booth. "He was
sheriff at that time, and it was his duty
to officiate at the execution. No rela
tive of yours, I hope?"
"Only my father," was the quiet re
ply. '
LIBERTY FOR WIVES.
From the Minneapolis Times,
In several recent addresses nnd publl.
cations there has been the usual learned
eloquent, chivalrle, but mysterious de
mand for the same nineteenth century
liberty for women that men enjoy. The
Times has discussed this matter fre
quently, and In its characteristically
tolerant and reasonable way; but insist
ing that women already have more rights
than are accorded to men either by cus
tom or by lnw. One of the writers re
ferred to talks mysteriously about the
"PaKan-Mosalc Ideas on matrimony and
divorce," from which the "enfranchise,
ment" of women is demanded,. The Times
would like to know what "rights and
liberties" men have In these matters that
are refused to women?
If the women of the United States
reallv want anything they haven't got,
The "Times will go bail that they will get
it, If it is to be had. In this matter of
marriage and divorce what more can any
body reasonably demand for them than
they now have? Do they want to go hack
to the free divorce system of Paganism,
and of the law of the First Century San
hedrim? It not, what do they want? Our
laws and customs prevailing here In Min
neapolis are certainly a part of the nine
teenth century, and it Is within our
knowledge that women have secured ill.
vorces over and over aRiiln In Minneap
olis Inside of twenty minutes by the post
otllee clock not a very reliable timepiece,
perhaps but, then, ir Minneapolis time
does not serve, the twenty-minute record
of Minneapolis can be lowered to ten or
even Ave. in towns a little farther wcjt.
In given cases on an agreed state of
facts a ladv who Insists on the same extra-legal
privileges that a. man has can
hire a defective for $5, shadow her hus
band, have the detective swear her
through in court and defectives swear
cheap and not only divorce her husband
In the freest possible way, hut have him
put under bonds to support her. The ease
is vet to be heard of in which the hus.
band has been able to use the courts o
compel his wife to support him, no mat
ter how much his superior in wealth or
in ability. Where the divorce laws dis
criminate at all, or where dlscriminatons
are made n their administration, it Is i.l
wnvs In favor of the woman.
In the administration nf the criminal
law as It affects the family relation the
crimination aganst the man is even more
gross and glaring. If any lady douh's
this, let her visit the police co'irt ome
ilny whn Mr. nnd Mrs. John Doe have
disagreed as to who Is the head of the
family. No matter how much Mr. Doe
suffers he bears it with Spartan sibnee,
for he knows that If he goes to the courts
with complaint against Mrs. Doe for
bumping his head against the floor un'il
he promises to be reasonable, he will be
lucky if he oseajies the workhouse. In
case Mrs. Doe cannot bring him Into pro
per subjection to the head of the family
she can rail In the gallant and chlv.ilrie
Officer Flaherty, who will drag the bru
tal Une to the station house, clubbing him
at every corner to teach him to respect
he ladies. And In the court next morn
ing the person anil liberty of the wretched
Doe are absolutely at the disnosal of the
wronged and suffering .Mrs. Doe. If she
says, send him to the workhouse, to the
workhouse he goes; and n matter how
strong his political pull In the warrud. It
counts nothing against the pull of Mrs.
Doe. There waf never a mayor of Minne
apolis who would dare to pardon John Doe
off the rofk pile for open and violent re
sistance of his wife's authority. It is to
Mrs. Doe's credit that she rarely uses the
giant strength of the state of Minnesota
on her side like a giantess.
Of course ladies and gentlemen who
write eloquent, chivalrle and touching ar
ticles about the "pagan-mosaic ideas" cf
the nineteenth century on "matrimony
and divorce." cannot be expected to de
vote their attention to such vulgar facts
of our stat"te and ocr common law of
custom: but laying these aside, what
other liberties do they demand for wives
to "nut them on an equality" with their
hunsbands.
The laws prohibit certain things alike
In men and women. In such matters the
laws are transgressed a thousand times by
"respectable men" where they are broken
once by "respectable women. In spite of
the laws, custom forgives this in man
where it does not In women. So It may
seem here that husbands have a larger
"liberty" than wives, and that there Is
a discrimination against the liberty cf
women In the marriage relation. But this
discrimination Is made by women them.

selves. Forgiving In everything else, wo
men are stern and unbending In this. They
will not concede to their own sex a single
inch of the ells of license they condone
in me otner.
And they are right. The dignity of wo.
manhood depends on their sternness here,
as elsewhere It depends on the civiliza
tion which prevents husbands from dis
carding wives absolutely at their pleas
ure, as was the custom in the pagan
family. And this pame paganism allowed
women "equality with men" In the one
way In which society, whose customs are
largely dictated hy women, now forbids it.
