Trumbull and Woman's Rights

Mr.. TRUMBuLL is now everywhere an
nounced as an advocate of womun's rights
The speech put into his mouth OH the Al
Of July by the reporter, even if properly
reported, docs not warrant the assumption
that Inc has taken any such ground rs llI;it
OF supporting" woman'S rights, rs under.
stood in these times. He declared generally
in favor Of elevating woman and giving her
the same pay for her services that man re-
celvcs /; and he added that when women
applied for the right to participate in the
government Of the country their peti.
ton would be granted, or rather could not
be denied.
While there is in What Mr.. TRUMDuLL sad
smart show of that sort of policy 50 mucll
practiccd by politicians o.! the time t. make
fair weather with the people, We yet do not
suppose he favors in the slightest degree
the strong ideas of the bold and ilnmodesl
women of the times. He no doubt consid-
ers the condition he attaches to the grant
ang OF the right TO participate il the Gov
eminent to women Il perfect safeguard
against the granting of any such right. The
women OF the Countrywide true women
he no doubt believes will not either in char
acter or numbers SO present themselves is
petitioners for the right rs to come up to
the condition. We do not believe that the
women of the nation will ever ask the right.
The point incidentally touched with re-
gard to woman getting for her services the
same pay that men receive for the same
sort OF service is one that merits considera-
ZION. There Is no reason why service
performed by woman should not COM
mand the same pay with q like service per-
formed by men. 1t is too well settled to be
denied that the capabilities of man for va
rlous branches Of industry and for many
pursuits are much superior to those of
woman for the same occupations; but it is
true that the disparity between the COM
pensation given to the sexes is far too
great.
Another matter of much social interest
Is the limited range Of female occupations.
IL should be greatly wideneG. Men shoulo
be at least partially liberated from some
pursuits requiring no great pbyslcal eAer,
Lion and as little of mental sagaclty, anu
women should supply their places, as they
could do, with entire success. The sewing
machine and other labor-saVlng Inventions
are only increasing her embarrassment .o'
the want of something to do, and MAXIM
it harder and harder for her to make mel
way through the world; and just IN pro
portion to her wants and the unchafi'aoie
ness of the world Will be be the ainouh' .
error, transgression, and misery alnonsS
the INDECENT class Of females.
On these points society may well con
slider the protection and elevation Of wo
man.
We are not the partisan OF Mr.. TRuA
BULL, and do not make any apologies fol
him. We mean only to do him justice, ant
TO make note of his reference to theme
which is fraught with interest alike to wo
men and to society.

SIGNIFICANT.

The demand for division Of the school
fund in this city was put forward by Father
Finnegan on behalf of his people, and, ~
we have repeatedly charged, negotiations
looking to this end were actually begun by
members OF our City Council before any
controversy about it began. The first COM
munication Of Zone of Very Many" sim
ply called attention to the contemplated
division, or rather to the negotiations for
division. Though ii was the first inti-
nation the public had of this plot to de-
stroy our common schools, it was not the
pIovocation for the discussion which has
followed. That provocation was the de-
mands Of Father Finnegan's people for
separate, exclusive school advantages at
public expense. We desire the origin of
this controversy to be remembered, for we
shall have occasion, doubtless, to refer to it
again. Remembering this, how unfair
and significant seems the following from
the Nashville Bonner, one Of the leading
Democratic organs of the State. Referring
to this controversy, it says;
"The crusade against Father Finnegap on
the proposition TO divide the public school fund,
Is vigorously kept up by ITOtcStdnt correspond
ents of the local papers. But the reverend
Father giues as good as he gets, and holds his
own against all assailants.'I
The italics are our own. Take this open
proclaimed sympathy of this central DEM
ocratic organ with the Catholic demands
in this matter, together with the positive
refusal of the Press and Herdld-the con-
soliddtcd organ of Democracy in this city
and the City Council to commit them
selves on the question, and we think the
inference is fair that the Romish Church,
in its efforts to break down the school sys-
tenn of the country, if it has not the active
aid of this great political party, has at least
its sympathy. We commend this point to
the attention of the fair and liberal minds
of this community. The controversy has
been carried on in our columns against the
demands of Father Finnegan by men of
both political parties, and not altogether by
Protestdnts. But the Banner, knowing
very well its own sympathies and the
policy of its party, terms the opposition to
exclusive Catholic schools, to be controlled
by the Priests, a crusade y against Father
Flnnegan of Professionals.

" GOING UP A SPOUT

McNelly, of the Cleveland Banner, in
noticing the demise of the Knoxville
Wig and Register, gives the Press and
Herald this slap:
ut should be keptin mind that the Wig and
Register was one of the East Tennessee one dol
lar publications. Furnishing a paper at one
dollar per annum brought it to grief, and all
others that are trying the experiment will, at no
distant day, 90 mp spout. The sooner they
get rid of printing office the better it will be
for them and the citizens IN the immediate
rieinity. They never can be made self-sustain-
ing in a wooden country like this, as all will
find out who undertake it"
We don't know, so well as McNelly does,
about when they will Ego up the spout
but whenever they do it, it won't be alone
because they print dollar paper. From
the present temper of the Democrats here,
we are satisfied that they will not much
