Death of mrs. Sarah E. v. Emery.

It is with more than passing sorrow that we note the death of the above great reform writer, at her home in Landing, Mich,, of cancer of the atomaOh at the age of 57 years. It is claimed that her book, “Seven Financial Conspiracies,” did more to win Kansas to populism than any other one factor. The following from “Sound Money” is given space: “In this great reform movement no one person has done more to arouse public sentiment and set people to thinking than Mrs. Emery did through her little book known as the “Seven Financial Conspiracies,” vf>ich has rim through several hundred thousand editions, and is still in great demand and has been translated into several different languages. “In addition to her work upon the rostrum as an advocate of equal suffrage and economic reforms, her later years were given to newspaper work, but her failing health compelled her to give up the publication of her paper, “The Corner Stone,” nearly a year ago. ‘ The memory of this grand woman will be revered in millions of homes in this country where her name has become a household word. “Though gone, her works will follow her. Peace to her ashes.”
